PolyDoodads
PolyDoodads, a Fabric mod by globalista-dev, adds server-side trinket items, with gems cut on a grindstone and modifiers that depend on the trinket's material.
What it does
Trinket items are built on Polymer, which generates a resource pack from the server, so the content also works in single-player worlds. Gems are cut by right-clicking a grindstone while holding the selected gem. Cut Emerald and cut Redstone are among them, and cut Glowstone is made from Redstone and Glowstone dust blocks. Recipes can be viewed in Polydex.
Each trinket's stats combine a base modifier with a secondary modifier. Gems only supply the base value, and the latter is multiplied by the trinket's material and gem modifier. Values with a plus sign are added to the base values, and values with a multiplication sign are multiplied by them. A Quartz Iron trinket, for example, grants a base of 2 Armor and a base of 0.05 Knockback Resistance plus a multiplied share, with Movement Speed as another option. The modifier rules for 1.20.1 differ, and the full list is in the MODIFIERS.md file on GitHub.
PolyDoodads requires Polymer and Polymer Patch for Trinkets Updated. It is server-side only, so players join without installing it, and the source code is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which places it in the public domain. Files exist for 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 1.21.4, 1.21.6, 1.21.7 and 1.21.8. Versions below 1.21.6 do not receive new features, and the latest file is 0.1.0+1.20.1 for 1.20.1, a beta build from 2025-07-25. Resin is available only from 1.21.4 on.
Key features
Server-side trinket items
Trinket items are added through Polymer, so only the server needs the mod and the resource pack is generated automatically.
Gem cutting on a grindstone
Right-clicking a grindstone while holding a gem cuts it, which yields cut Emerald, cut Redstone and cut Glowstone.
Base and secondary modifiers
Each trinket takes a base modifier from its material and a secondary modifier from its gem, with plus and multiply rules for combining them.
Recipes in Polydex
Crafting recipes for trinkets and cut gems can be looked up in the Polydex interface.
