Wooden to Flint Tools
by Shvara
Wooden to Flint Tools swaps the wooden tools of the early game for flint ones, so a new world starts with a different first set of tools.
What it does
Flint tools match their wooden counterparts in function and differ only in texture and recipe. The mod is delivered as a data pack that removes the wooden tools and puts flint versions in their place, which lengthens the early game where flint is found along rivers, oceans and gravel. It works alongside Stone Copper Tools, a similar data pack. The server must run the mod, while players may leave it out. Files cover 1.14 – 1.21.8 for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the data pack form is also available, under the MIT License, which is not open source.
Key features
Flint replaces wooden tools
Wooden tools are removed and flint tools take their place, so the early game starts with flint.
Same function, new look
Flint tools work the same as the wooden tools they replace, with different textures and crafting recipes.
Translated interface
Text is available in English, Czech and Toki Pona.

What the author says
ℹ️ This data pack aims to extend the early game by just a bit by removing wooden tools and replacing them with flint ones instead. Flint tools are functionally identical to their wooden counterparts except for their textures and recipes. 💡 Tip: Look for flint in rivers and oceans - especially in the early game.
