Slab Expansion
by mattias15
Slab Expansion, a Forge mod for 1.20.1, adds new slab variants so builders can decorate a base in more ways.
What it does
The mod adds a set of new slab variants that fit the vanilla slab shape. Builders can use them to lay out pathways, build roof edges and make furniture pieces, which widens the choice of blocks beyond the standard slab types. Every variant is placed and crafted like the slabs players already know.
Only the 1.20.1 version is published, as a Forge build. Slab Expansion runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under All rights reserved, and its files were first published on 2024-07-02 and last updated on 2024-07-06.
Key features
New slab variants
Additional slab blocks extend the building palette and match the size and shape of vanilla slabs.
Pathways and roofs
The variants suit paths, roof edges and stepped architectural details, where a half-height block is needed.
Furniture pieces
Slabs can be used to form tables, benches and other furniture-like shapes in houses and interiors.
Custom builds
Mixing the new variants with existing blocks gives many ways to shape a build and express a personal style.

Village and town design

Who it’s for: Builders and decorators who want more half-height block options in Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge. Server owners who run a build server should install it on the server and on every player's client.
How it compares
More Slabs Variants is a Fabric, Forge and NeoForge option for 1.19.4 – 1.21.8, client and server, under All rights reserved, so it covers a wider version range. Flint Block Slab works on Fabric and Forge for 1.20.1, released under CC0 1.0 Universal, and is the choice when the license matters. Variants is a Forge-only option for 1.20.1 under the MIT License. Slab Expansion, by contrast, is a Forge-only build for 1.20.1 under All rights reserved.
