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 Forge only.

Minecraft 1.18.1Newest
Minecraft 1.17.1

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.

"Mosaic Blocks" is a Forge mod that adds new 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.

All the combinations

Here you see all the different patterns with all the colors.

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 mod's configuration file, to anything between 0% (never consume dye) and 100% (always consume dye)
