How do I install Kyanite?

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 CurseForge — not every file is mirrored on our own servers.

The listing gives Minecraft 1.17, 1.16.3, 1.16.5, among others. This is the version stated by the author or source site, not something we verified ourselves.

Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.16–1.17. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.

Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Fabric only.

Minecraft 1.17Newest
Minecraft 1.16.2–1.16.5

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.

Kyanite (Fabric)
--
Kyanite is a mod about augmenting armor through vanilla materials and the alike.
It features a new ore found exclusively in the End, called Kyanite .
Kyanite , in its base form, can be used to make Kyanite gear and Refined Kyanite
Refined Kyanite can be combined with Vanilla Materials to create "Ascension Kyanite " of that material's type.
The Ascension Kyanite is then combined with the Kyanite armor to boost the Kyanite gear's power.
Currently, Iron, Diamond, Netherite, Gold, Quartz, and "Powered Quartz" are supported

--
The mod is Fabric Exclusive, please DO NOT get on your knees and beg for a Forge port, though you are free to port to Forge if you are capable of coding and love the mod, as it is open source and I will not stop you.

Feel free to put this in a modpack, credit is preferred but not required.

If you have any suggestions or bugs, or simply want to work on the source code, check GitHub.
