Description

🧱 Just Block Shapes - Complete Your Building Palette

Every vanilla material deserves a full set of block shapes.

Just Block Shapes adds the missing walls, stairs, slabs, fences, fence gates, trapdoors, doors, pressure plates, and buttons for vanilla building blocks that should have had them all along. No new textures, no custom assets — every block looks like it was always part of vanilla Minecraft.

✨ Features

🧩 Missing Shape Variants

Vanilla Minecraft has inconsistencies where certain building materials lack shape variants that similar materials have. This mod fills those gaps:

  • Walls for Quartz, Smooth Quartz, Polished Andesite/Granite/Diorite, Dark Prismarine, Prismarine Bricks, Purpur, Smooth Stone, Smooth Sandstone, Smooth Red Sandstone, Cut Sandstone, Cut Red Sandstone, Stone, and more
  • Stairs for Smooth Stone, Cut Sandstone, Cut Red Sandstone, Calcite, Cracked Stone Bricks, and more
  • Slabs for Calcite, Cracked Stone Bricks, Smooth Basalt, End Stone, and more
  • Fences, Fence Gates for all targeted blocks
  • Trapdoors, Doors, Pressure Plates, Buttons for most targeted blocks

🎨 Terracotta & Concrete — Full Shape Sets

All 16 dyed terracotta colors and all 16 concrete colors get the full treatment: stairs, slabs, walls, fences, fence gates, trapdoors, doors, pressure plates, and buttons.

Plain terracotta is also included.

🏗️ Vanilla-First Design

  • Uses existing vanilla textures — no resource pack needed
  • Block properties (hardness, blast resistance, sounds) match the base block exactly
  • Standard vanilla recipe patterns (stonecutter support included)
  • Blocks appear in vanilla creative tabs alongside their base blocks
