About this Mod

Colorful Columns

Adds column variants of concrete and terracotta.

Colorful Columns requires the Fabric modloader, Fabric API, and Columns.

Installation

Install Fabric API if it is not installed.
Install Columns if it is not installed.
Download Colorful Columns from CurseForge or GitHub.
Place the downloaded file in your mods folder.

Usage

Like normal columns added by the Columns mod, concrete and terracotta columns can be crafted in the crafting table (using an I shape) or the stonecutter. In addition, terracotta columns can be crafted into a dyed variant by placing 8 of that dye around a single terracotta column.

Other than the texture, concrete and terracotta columns act and appear the same as normal columns.
