How do I install Refined Mosaic Blocks?

Install the matching mod loader (Forge, Fabric or NeoForge) for your Minecraft version. Download the .jar. Put it in the .minecraft/mods folder and launch that loader profile. Opens on Modrinth — not every file is mirrored on our own servers.

What Minecraft version does Refined Mosaic Blocks work with?

The listing gives Minecraft 1.21, 1.21.1. This is the version stated by the author or source site, not something we verified ourselves.

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

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.

About:

This mod is a port of the original Mosaic Blocks mod and adds mosaic blocks that can be used for decoration. Craft it from diorite and glass, then pick one of the 16 patterns in the stone cutter, and then right click the block with the dye of your choice. The blocks can also have different rotations, just like glazed terracotta.

You can also shift-left-click a placed mosaic block with an empty hand to easily change its rotation.

You can use them to create Beautiful Murals and Mosaics! These blocks can also be used in your contraptions. Wet sponge will remove mosaic blocks color upon contact, and each color will output a different signal strength through a redstone comparator!

When applying a dye to the mosaic block, there is a 20% chance that the dye will be consumed. This percentage can be configured in the gamerules, to anything between 0% (never consume dye) and 100% (always consume dye)

With this port I have also added compat for the colors of the Dye Depot mod and integration with Clutter No More.

FAQ:

What's planned next for the mod?

I will continue to port the mod as time goes on and will sometimes add new features or suggestions, but there is currently nothing new planned.

Can you backport to version x.x.x?

No, backports are quite the work and I won't have time for that. However if you can code, feel free to open a PR on github!
