About this Mod

bar

Description: Lapidarist is a relatively small mod that allows you to transform resource blocks which were mostly unusable, into blocks perfect for building. This includes blocks such as Gold Tiles, Cut Diamond, Emerald Pillars, and Netherite Bricks (the ultimate flex). All new blocks are only obtainable through a Stonecutter, giving it another interesting use besides more cost-effective stone block recipes. All blocks are also available from Crafting Tables but will have a lower output (similar to Copper).

Frequently Asked Questions

Lapidarist server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Lapidarist compatible with forge?

Lapidarist officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.19.4. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Lapidarist – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Lapidarist consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
