DatapacksJava
Anvil break
This data pack will fix this issue, as now fragile blocks that previously broke under an anvil will crumble under it!
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Were you annoyed that an anvil, a supposedly heavy block, would break against a light flower or water lily, or even fail to penetrate foliage? This data pack will fix this issue, as now fragile blocks that previously broke under an anvil will crumble under it! Glass and foliage will also break under the weight of this iron. If any blocks fail to break, please report the error in the comments!
