About this Mod

Clapboards banner image

Clapboards is a client and server mod for the Fabric and Quilt mod loaders that adds several kinds of wooden clapboards. The mod comes with a bundled resourcepack with textures in line with Minecraft's pre-1.14/pre-Jappa textures, also known as Programmer Art.

The mod does not strictly require Continuity, but if you want the clapboards to connect together and look, you know, like clapboards, you'll need it.

Crafting

Mod Compat

  • Condensed Creative
    If Condensed Creative is present, all clapboard variants will be collapsed into a single group.

Known Issues

  • Versions for 1.21+ do not have a Russian localization from Pale Oak Wood. I don't know Russian, if anyone who does would be willing to provide one, put in a PR!
  • On 1.19.4, when installed alongside Condensed Creative, the creative menu will show Bamboo and Cherry clapboards even if 1.20 experimental features are not enabled for that world. As far as I can tell, this isn't something I can fix on my end, it's a case Condensed Creative just hasn't accounted for yet.

Is that it?

Yep, that's it. I find that block mods tend to have so much overlap that if you install more than one -- which is likely because they also have unique blocks -- you'll end up with a ton of overlap that clutters your creative inventory, stonecutter, or worse, creates conflicting crafting recipes. While I'm not aware of any other mod that adds clapboards, I made Clapboards a single-feature mod because I think that's how these things generally ought to be done. It adds clapboards, and that's all it will ever do. If I want to add another block, that'll be a new mod. Maybe, if I get to more than maybe 8 mods, I'll consider combining them, but I'll have to carefully consider options to mitigate overlap.

Support

I hope to keep the mod up-to-date, but I made the mod in a couple of days for my own use and I'm pretty busy and I tend to hop between projects often. However, anyone is free to update or expand on the mod if they want. I will not be making a Forge version, but others are welcome to.

Future Plans

None of these are guarantees, just thoughts I have

  • More localizations.

  • Mod compat. Don't know what mods yet. File a GitHub issue and let me know what compat you'd like to see, maybe?

Localizations

The mod has localizations available for the following languages:

  • American English
  • British English
  • Australian English
  • New Zealand/Aotearoa English
  • Mexican Spanish
  • Toki Pona
  • Russian (Courtesy of Zensonaton)
