About this Mod
Thriving Blocks
Thriving Blocks is a block mod with a focus on Vanilla+ blocks.
I love terraforming and building landscapes but many of the current block mods don't focus on that.
So here it is, its got a little old minecraft, some twists on vanilla blocks and
lots of new grass block types!
(Note that some of the textures shown are from Nature's spirit and will only show when Nature's spirit is installed.)
We've got more pictures In the Gallery and a Wiki that explains each block.
Compatability
This Mod also has Compat with Nature's Spirit!
More blocks will be present when they are used alongside eachother.
A big thanks to Ark for making the red mossy stone textures for regular stone and travertine!
Resource packs
This mod uses direct references to textures when possible so resource packs that change vanilla block textures will change some of the blocks added by this mod!
I can't guaruntee compatability with all resource packs and some blocks don't use direct texture references.
How to Obtain These Blocks
They're currently obtained through stonecutting but that could change in the future.
The only official uploads of this mod are on modrinth and curseforge!
Do not download from any other sites.
Happy Building! - Happy1speed
