Unearth
by ItsMeCryptic
Unearth extends the Lightweight Archaeology pottery sherd system on NeoForge, letting players stamp and dye decorated pots.
What it does
Pottery sherds gain more uses in Unearth: a stamp can be dyed by right-clicking it with a dye, and a stamp that has been redyed can be given a glow effect by applying glow ink sacs. Decorated pots can also be stamped and dyed directly, without a stamp kit. Music is credited to Bandit. Unearth runs on NeoForge for 1.21.1 only, and it is published under the MIT License as open source. The server and every player need the mod installed.
Key features
Dyeable stamps
Right-clicking a stamp with a dye changes its color, and the stamp keeps that color afterward.
Glowing stamps
Applying glow ink sacs to a stamp gives it a glow effect, useful in dark builds and caves.
Stamping pots directly
Decorated pots can be stamped and dyed by right-clicking with dyes or glow ink, with no stamp kit needed.

How it compares
More Pottery Sherd covers the same pottery area but targets 1.20.1 and ships under a Creative Commons Attribution No Derivatives 4.0 license, so it is not open source. Anything Glows is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.1 under the MIT License, but it is not open source and it focuses on glow effects rather than pottery.
