Majick's Better Emeralds
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.18. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe author built this one for Minecraft 1.18.2 on Forge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.
I made this as I noticed that not many emerald mods exist for 1.18+, so I decided to change that as well as add my own features to it.
I also made sure to make all sprites fit vanilla Minecraft so it's not jarring to play with the mod.
Balancing patches will be released gradually over time, but for now the mod is complete.
This mod adds the following:
Items:
Emerald Gemstone
Emerald Apple
Tools:
Emerald Sword
Emerald Pickaxe
Emerald Axe
Emerald Shovel
Emerald Hoe
Armor:
Emerald Helmet
Emerald Chestplate
Emerald Leggings
Emerald Boots
(All as seen in images tab)
All emerald equipment is better than diamond, but worse than netherite.
Emerald Gemstones are what is used to craft all tools. Crafting recipe can be seen in images tab.
Emerald Apples are crafted by surrounding an apple with emeralds. An emerald apple gives the same amount of hunger as steak, for people who prefer crops over meat.
I would like to point out that this mod was created using MCreator, so special thanks to that program for making this mod possible.
