About
Pyrite helps to fill out your block palette when building with various vanilla blocks! Looking to build with coloured blocks? Try out new Stained Planks, Dyed Lamps or Dyed Bricks in all the dye colours and more! Looking to flex your wealth? Try out Cut, Chiseled and Pillar variants of all the various resource blocks! Best of all, these variants (depending on the block) can include stairs, slabs, fences, fence gates, walls, wall gates, trapdoors, pressure plates, buttons - everything you need to decorate as you want.
Pyrite 0.18 also allows you to easily pick and choose what features you want, optionally allowing you to disable the entire mod!
