About this Mod

Extra Chests

Overview

Adds a chest and a trapped chest for every vanilla wood type, so your storage matches your builds.

Works like the normal chest (double chests too). Trapped versions send redstone when opened.

Minecraft 1.21.5

Beta Release

My excuse to practice block entity creation and texturing.


Features

  • All woods covered: Oak, Spruce, Birch, Jungle, Acacia, Dark Oak, Mangrove, Cherry, Pale Oak, Bamboo, Crimson, Warped.
  • Double chests: Place two of the same type side-by-side to form a large chest.
  • Trapped chests: Emit redstone power based on how many players are viewing the chest.
  • Creative tabs:
    • Chests → Functional Blocks
    • Trapped Chests → Redstone Blocks

Installation

  1. Download the mod file for your game version.
  2. Install a compatible loader (Fabric or NeoForge).
  3. Put the mod file in your mods folder.
  4. Launch the game.

Both. Add it on the server and clients.
