Trails&Tales Backport (1.20 Backport)
by dnlayu
Trails&Tales Backport brings the bamboo wood set from the Trails & Tales update to Forge for Minecraft 1.19.2 and 1.19.4.
What it does
The mod adds the bamboo block, stripped bamboo, bamboo planks and a full set of derived pieces: bamboo mosaic, mosaic slab and mosaic stairs, plus regular slabs and stairs. Each piece can be crafted and placed in the world like the matching vanilla wood blocks, so bamboo builds gain a finished look without leaving the vanilla crafting system.
The content is presented as a backport of the new material that Mojang showed at Minecraft Live 2022, so players on older versions can use it before updating. Its effects are limited to new blocks and recipes, which makes it a decoration pack more than a gameplay change, and it fits survival and creative worlds alike.
Only Forge is supported. Trails&Tales Backport is client and server, so the server and every player need it. Two game versions have files, 1.19.2 and 1.19.4, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, which means it is not open source.
Key features
Bamboo block set
A bamboo block, stripped bamboo and bamboo planks give builders a complete starting set of the wood.
Mosaic variants
Bamboo mosaic blocks are added in full-block, slab and stairs forms for decorative floors and walls.
Slabs and stairs
Bamboo slabs and stairs cover the standard shapes, so roofs and steps match the rest of the set.
Recipe-based crafting
The new pieces are obtained through crafting recipes that fit the existing bamboo materials.

Who it’s for: Players who build with bamboo on Forge and want the new wood set from the Trails & Tales update in 1.19.2 or 1.19.4. Server owners running this build need to install it on the server as well.
How it compares
Bamboo backport is Forge-only and covers 1.17.1 – 1.19.2 with the same client and server environment, but it is not open source. More Trails & More Tales targets 1.20 – 1.20.1 on Forge and is client-side only, so servers do not need it. Homespun is open source under the MIT License, has a single Forge file for 1.19.2 and runs on client and server.
