WeatheringBlocks

Blocks in your world naturally age over time — stone cracks under your feet, cobblestone grows mossy in the rain, and wet sponges dry in the sun.

About this Mod

Features

🌧️ Rain — Moss Growth

Blocks exposed to rain will slowly become mossy over time.

  • Cobblestone → Mossy Cobblestone
  • Cracked Stone Bricks → Mossy Stone Bricks
  • Cobblestone Wall → Mossy Cobblestone Wall
  • Stone Brick Wall → Mossy Stone Brick Wall

  • Stone Brick Stairs → Mossy Stone Brick Stairs
  • Cobblestone Slab → Mossy Cobblestone Slab
  • Stone Brick Slab → Mossy Stone Brick Slab
  • Sponge → Wet Sponge

👣 Walking + Time — Cracking & Erosion

Blocks degrade slowly over time. Walking on them speeds up the process — frequently used paths will show wear first.

  • Stone Bricks → Cracked Stone Bricks
  • Stone → Cobblestone
  • Stone Stairs → Cobblestone Stairs
  • Prismarine Bricks → Prismarine
  • Prismarine Brick Stairs → Prismarine Stairs
  • Polished Blackstone Bricks → Cracked Polished Blackstone Bricks

☀️ Sunshine — Drying

When the rain stops and the sky is clear, wet blocks will gradually dry out.

  • Wet Sponge → Sponge

Commands (Debug)

Command

  • /weathering speed
  • /weathering status

Use /weathering speed 100 to test changes quickly, or /weathering speed 0 to pause all weathering.

How It Works

  • All transformations use vanilla blocks only — no new blocks or textures are added.
  • Block properties (stair direction, wall connections, waterlogged state, etc.) are preserved during transformation.
  • Weathering only occurs around players within a 16-block radius.
  • Rain-based changes require the block to actually be exposed to rain (blocks under roofs are safe).
  • Changes happen gradually and randomly, so your world ages naturally over many play sessions.

Compatibility

  • Server-side only — no client installation required for multiplayer.
  • Works with all vanilla blocks. Does not modify or replace any existing block behavior.
  • Safe to add to existing worlds. Safe to remove — already-changed blocks remain as normal vanilla blocks.

All my mods are completely free to use.
