About this Mod

About project

This Datapack / Mod changes the bed crafting recipe back to its pre-1.12 version. That means that you can get red bed by crafting it with any colored wool. If you want to change the color of the bed, you can dye it later by putting it with the chosen dye in the crafting table.

Credits

This datapack / mod comes bundled with Vanilla Tweaks Retro-styled bed icons (2D sprites) for more nostalgic feel.

Future support

I plan on updating this project every time there is a new release of Minecraft to keep it compatible with the latest Minecraft versions.

Backports

I do not plan to backport it to earlier version until specifically requested on the Support Discord.
