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.

Obsidian Overhaul expands Minecraft’s progression by transforming Obsidian into a true upgrade path — and now, with the arrival of Crying Obsidian, the mod introduces a brand-new tier that surpasses Netherite itself.

Perfect additions for fortress-style bases.


💎Obsidian Tier (Core Mod Feature)

The base mod also includes a full set of Obsidian tools and armor, balanced between Diamond and Netherite, offering:

Plus, decorative obsidian blocks inspired by quartz-style architecture.
