Stylish Stiles - Renewed
by proxi
Stylish Stiles - Renewed replaces carpeted fences with stiles, a fence block that works the same way but lets players jump over it while mobs cannot.
What it does
Stiles are new fence blocks that function identically to carpeted fences, so the carpet look can be swapped out without changing how the fence behaves. Players can jump over a stile where mobs are kept in, which is the main difference from the fences it replaces. The mod integrates with vanilla fences and with fence support from other mods that are listed on the project page.
The project carries on work begun by Chrisdw889, whose GitHub activity stopped after about eight months, and brings it to newer Minecraft versions. Switching from the original requires removing it and installing this version, and existing stiles stay in place after the switch. The code is 100% compatible with the original. Code reused from the original is under its MIT License, and other reused code is under CC0.
It runs on Fabric with Fabric API as the required dependency. The server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for nine release versions, 1.21 – 1.21.8, and the latest file, 1.1.3-1.21 for 1.21.1, was posted on 2025-03-01.
Key features
Stiles as fence blocks
Stiles take the place of carpeted fences and work identically, giving the fence a cleaner look.
Jumping over stiles
Players can jump over stiles, while mobs cannot, so a stile fence can contain animals without blocking the player.
Vanilla and modded fences
Stiles integrate with vanilla fences and with fences added by other mods that the project lists.
Blocks persist after switching
Existing stiles remain in the world when the original mod is replaced by this fork.
