Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.16. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
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.
Cotton is a general-use, public library for unity within Fabric mods. Currently, it adds:
- Block and metal unification (no more having to juggle six types of copper ingot)
- Common item tags that vanilla doesn't include
- Configuration (temporary until Fabric's system is complete)
- Logging using Log4j
- Auto-generation of loot tables and data tags when necessary (primarily dev tool)
- Removal of existing recipes without log spam (primarily dev tool)
- Cauldron behaviors API (like filling a water bottle or brewing) with LibCD tweaker support
