tethik-frieren
by Tethik
Tethik Frieren is a private Fabric gameplay tweak set for 1.21.4 that bundles several small changes under one goal, with a friend-teleport ring among them.
What it does
Tethik Frieren collects a set of minor features that change everyday gameplay and fix quality-of-life annoyances. Buckets can be made to hold lava, water or nothing, and the lodestone recipe is easier to craft. Cobblestone, gravel and sand recipes are altered, and a recipe lets players bottle everlasting abilities. Silk touch can be required to harvest glass.
Its author describes it as a private project with an overarching goal, with the intention of moving personal modifications into a dedicated mod later. Installation requires Fabric. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published only for 1.21.4, the latest being 1.2.4, dated 2025-03-13. The code is open source under the MIT License.
