About

Description

Architect's Palette is just as it says; a collection of blocks designed to bring new colors and textures to your builds. The mod aims to cover all sorts of uses and environments. Giant castle walls, a frozen wizard's tower, ruins in the end, a busy workshop, or even just a basement made of meat. The mod is survival friendly and uses resources from all sorts of places; be sure to check with your local villagers!

That all said; there are a couple things to note. This mod was designed with worldgen structures in mind, as one might notice, these are not implemented yet. Temporary recipes have been put in place to keep the mod functional. With that in mind, do forgive some of the recipes, like that of Limestone. Speaking of recipes, JEI comes highly recommended. Due to an oversight while setting up recipes, they don't come in the recipe book.

 
We also have a discord! Feel free to join and talk about the mod: https://discord.gg/hMkfjPDkSD 

We now have a fabric port as well, created by Slomax. Check it out Here

 FAQ:

How do I acquire Twisted Wood/Warpstone/Hadaline?
These are items acquired through Warping, a custom recipe type. Toss items through a Nether Portal and they will come out the other side as a different item. JEI can show these recipes.
How do I turn on the Abyssaline/Hadaline Lamp?
Abyssaline and Hadaline blocks are capable of being charged by their Chiseled Bricks. You can insert a Heart of the Sea into those bricks and it will power connected blocks.
Will you backport to x.xx?

No. Version control has never been something I (Jsburg, the programmer) have known much about. I wouldn't know how to maintain the two in parallel, nor am I interested in the additional upkeep.
Will you add support for X mod?
Maybe. If the team is interested enough in supporting a mod, it will turn up eventually. Feel free to suggest something; but no promises. In general, there aren't plans for wide support.
Will you port to Fabric?
We (Slomax) did! Check it.

Architect's Palette adds many new blocks. They are awesome and look super cool. The recipes are generally balanced to be survival friendly, with high yields and common ingredients. There's a config and Quark support. The mod is good I swear.

Off the top of my head, there are blocks like...

  • Fish blocks with scales
  • Industrial metal plating
  • Bricks made of bones, and a dark set made of withered bones
  • Glowing crystals growing in the Nether
  • Stone bricks made with ores, which the artists want to get rid of, but the community is oddly attached to so they're in a strange purgatory where we can't really get rid of them but really don't want to support them which is why there isn't a copper variant (please don't ask for a copper variant)
  • Brick variants of some blocks that don't have brick variants (like basalt)
  • Charcoal blocks made by smoking logs (in a smoker), much to the distaste of everyone who has ever seen the recipe.
  • Original materials like Sunmetal, Olivestone, Cerebral Plating, and Abyssaline
  • "Mossy" (Nether vine-y) Blackstone variants that were also implemented in Quark (we did ours first)
  • A new crafting mechanic to facilitate some weirder materials such as Esoterrack and Twisted trees (it shows up in JEI and is datapack friendly)
  • Incredible Board blocks that are just big planks
  • Nubs, a new block shape used for shape detail in builds
  • Incredible Heavy Bricks that are just big bricks
  • Cute Acacia totems
