Grass Overhaul is decoration & QoL mod that adds stackable carpet-like, slab and full sod blocks.
These sods can be used to make a more detailed terrain while preserving that vanilla look. It even is compatible with texture packs.
This mod vas previously known as Sod. (MODID is still "sod" for compatibility reasons)
Features
- 🌱 Sod blocks, slabs and patches. For grass, mycelium, podzol and crimson/warped nylium.
- 🧱 Stackable Sod Patches. Patches are stackable in layers just like snow!
- 🎨 Seamless color. Sods use vanilla grass tint, which means it will match the color from the biome it's in!
- ✏️ Texture pack compatibility. All sods use vanilla textures, which means resource packs are compatible by default.
- ☀️ Shader PBR compatibility. Are you using a resourcepack with PBR? Sods will have them too!
- ⚙️ Vanilla & Modded map compatibility (Correct coloring on maps and minimaps like Xaero's or FTB)
- 🧟 Control mob spawning. Mobs can't spawn in sod patches, so you can control spawning in a good looking way.
Forge version is standalone and will run without any dependency.
Fabric version requires Fabric API
QuiltMC Mod loader version requieres Quilt Standard Libraries
Sod is currently implemented in three blocks:
- The Sod Block; One-sided grass blocks that blend seamlessly above the original grass blocks.
These sods blocks are also included in all variations (Grass, Mycelium, Podzol, Crimson Nylium and Warped Nylium)
- The Sod Slab: A slab variation of sods, which are half versions of the full sod blocks.
These also are included for all grass types, and soon will also be included vertical variations of them.
- The Sod Stairs: A stair variation for sods, available for all types.
- The Sod Patch; A carpet-like block, alternative to make small depth in open grass, mountains, the nether and more. These patches can be stacked on top of each other to achieve any desired height.
Normally builders tend to use green/moss carpets, which looks good at long distances, until you get too close and you realize that they look off.
Planned Features
- Wide modded blocks compatibility
Currently only End's Phantasm is compatible, though soon most popular mods that add new grass variations will also be compatible.
- Hedge Shears tool
This tool will allow players to make terrain variation easily by right clicking on the blocks, so they don't need to craft each variation.
