About this Mod
Grian's Beta Expansion
Grian's Beta Expansion is a mod for Minecraft Beta 1.7.3, that aims to add new features that I thought were fun or made sense to add as a feature either to solve problems or introduce more content, while trying to stay true to the beta style/feel.
This mod is meant to be played standalone, it may work alongside other mods, but there may be compatibility issues. Any places I expect incompatibilities to exist can be seen here
The project is currently in relatively early stages & has only one major feature along with several minor ones, a lot more is planned however, so stay tuned!
