Vanultrax, a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.16.5, adds new blocks, ore, plants and food that are kept close to vanilla gameplay.
What it does
The mod aims to add content that fits the vanilla game rather than replacing its systems. The current version adds several new blocks, ores, plants and food items.
