Description
OPENBLOCKS REOPENED
OpenBlocks Reopened is a fork of OpenBlocks by the OpenMods team, patching long-lasting bugs, adding QoL changes along with additional features.
As of v1.8.3, OpenModsLib is no longer required!
OPENBLOCKS
OpenBlocks is a compilation of blocks and items that greatly enhance some lacking aspects of both vanilla and modded Minecraft. There's not a specific theme to this mod, it is more of a collection of random useful tools for a player to work with in the game.
What does it contain?
- A combination ladder and trapdoor, also known as the Jaded Ladder
- A creative-only healer block that slowly replenishes your health and food when you stand on it.
- A guide block to assist in various constructions
- Dyeable elevator blocks to quickly travel between floors. Requires XP by default.
- Light boxes to display your maps on the wall, ceiling or floor
- Archery targets for a shooting range
- Player graves, safekeeping for your last death (assuming you’re capable of regeneration)
- Colored flags for various purposes
- Liquid tanks -- portable, practical, and pliable any-size liquid containment
- Hang gliders!
- Random trophies that may or may not do odd things when right-clicked
- Bear traps -- like venus fly traps, but snappier
- Luggage, the traveling sentient chest
- Sprinklers, to accelerate the growth of crops and other growables
- Item cannons to shoot items around for transport
- Vacuum hoppers -- like regular hoppers, but not limited to the top and sucks up XP. Compatible with BuildCraft!
- Sonic goggles -- echolocation for Steves
- Sponges for getting rid of liquids fast and effectively
- The Redstone Configurable Pulse Lightweight Mega Touch Sensor, also known as the BIG BUTTON
- Blocks drawn by pencils and crayons that are only seen by the imaginative eye
- Fans -- the power of an industrial fan in the size of a desk fan
- A wearable crane for picking up blocks and entities
- XP Bottler -- should be self-explanatory
- Magnet turtles -- turtles don't have CRT screens, so we should be fine
- Village highlighter -- shows the village borders and where their golem guardians spawn
- The Slimalizer, which detects slime chunks
- Paths, an alternative to gravel roads
- The Block Breaker and Block Placer are back! A perfect replacement for the now-dormant RedPower mod
- XP Drain -- stand on one attached to a tank, and your XP will be drained and turned into a liquid state
- The Auto Anvil and Auto Enchantment Table, imported fresh from OpenXP. Uses liquid XP to perform their function automatically.
- The Sleeping Bag. Finally, a way to sleep on the go without resetting your spawn point!
- The Rope Ladder -- a magic ladder that doesn’t need support to hold itself up and adjusts its own size to match the ground. Single use.
- The Donation Station -- tells you which mod a block or item comes from, and lets you support the modder that created it
- A painting/staining system for blocks, including:
- A Paint Mixer -- makes paint using dyes and milk. Millions of colors possible.
- A paint brush to paint white canvases and other blocks.
- Stencils that are made using the Drawing Table to paint specific areas of blocks
- A Squeegee that liquefies paint to clean it off of blocks
- Exciting graphics and much more to come.
