About this Mod
In Vanilla Minecraft, some blocks are missing from existance (for example stone and smooth stone walls) and this mod ads all those missing blocks such as brand new vanilla-style diorite bricks!
Currently under development so even if the current version is missing most of the blocks from the roadmap (see gallery) they will eventually be added!
