Spruced Up

After playing Minecraft on and off for a number of years, I developed a liking for the in-game material, spruce. This game, while vastly superior, lacks the fictional brown-colored spruce wood. Instead, we get an orange-ish colored pine. While a bit more realistic, the orange-colored pine lacks the spruce's pazazz and brilliant brown hue. As such, this mod was created; it turns pine and its assorted building materials into the style of Minecraft's spruce.

 

  • This mod is client side only, meaning, if you are playing on a server it does not need to be installed on the server side of the game. Thus, you can spruce up your game on any server.

    If you liked this mod you may be interested in another tree-related mod that I made: Green Be Gone

I HAVE A MAJOR COMPLAINT!!! 

this mod is too good. I can't play without it now, and use pine in everything. im soooo sad :)

wtf i like pine wood now

💬 SunshineFaith, Mar 1st at 11:27 PM

I tried it and so far it is working!  

💬 A_TreeAuthor, Feb 29th at 8:16 PM

Hi SunshineFaith, yes this should work fine for 1.19.3. :-)
The only real problem is the modinfo file, I will "update" sometime this week when I get a chance and it will stop showing an error. I havent played 1.19 yet, so I am not entirely sure if its compatible, but from my knowledge it should be unless they changed something in the folder structure.

💬 SunshineFaith, Feb 25th at 10:37 PM

I'm going to try using this mod for the current build of 1.19.3.  I love the darker color.   Hopefully it works anyway.  Did the author stop updating?

Would there be any way to force the server to ask the player to download the mod?
I tried modifying the mod files for this, but to no avail.

"side": "Client", I tried changing it to "Both", and it works "right", but when I finish the Download it asks again, and the cycle repeats itself.

Do you have discord?

Lord_Fong Good question! The reason I made this mod a retexture instead of a completely new tree was because I like to play on a server so I wanted to make a client side mod. A server-side mod would work if the server I play on added it, however, any already generated parts of the map are not going to have the new tree and so I would have to venture quite far out to see it.

ArtiKs There is definitely a way to make those seeds add a custom tree, like how both you and Fong suggested. Since both of you seem to be interested in a mod that does that I will look into making something like that. :)

💬 ArtiKs, Dec 11th 2023 at 4:53 AM

The game has unused "Dark pine seeds".
Is there a way to make those seeds add darker trees without replacing the existing pines?

I don't love the orange pine wood, but there are some objects that look better in that color.
I made the same question in the medieval fashion mod and I have to post it here too, because this hue looks so elegant~
 

💬 Lord_Fong, Dec 9th 2023 at 11:24 PM

Why not make a mod that adds spruce trees, instead of doing a retexture of a completely different tree?

💬 Barhandar, Dec 7th 2023 at 3:38 PM

It's a content-only mod, it should not have a dependency in the first place. Works just fine even in 1.16 with "dependencies" field entirely removed.

💬 Blazha, Sep 17th 2023 at 12:31 PM

DanaCraluminum It has dependency on game version 1.18.8, when you try to use the mod in older version it's grayed out and the info says dependency missing. I managed to make it work by editing that value to 1.18.7. Works perfectly

💬 DanaCraluminum, Sep 16th 2023 at 5:30 PM

Blazha You played with this mod on 1.18.7 version and it doesn't work?

💬 Blazha, Sep 16th 2023 at 4:11 PM

Why isn't it possible to run this mod in 1.18.7 version? I can't play Net 7.0 versions due to performance issues, too much freezes

💬 Frost369, Sep 1st 2023 at 10:08 PM

It would be nice if this can be added to the dark pine seed that is in the game, keeping pine the same addding a new tree to the game.  I actually like the look of pine wood and trees, but also like these spruce textures hoping it is possible to have both.

💬 Wandour, Aug 26th 2023 at 7:05 PM

Yes SO MUCH appreciated man

this has to be one of the things i been begging to be added to the main game since the wood colors are really lacking

I rarely found use for maple and pine other than for gates and it only looked good with certain materials.

💬 A_TreeAuthor, Aug 24th 2023 at 12:50 PM

@Wandour You are welcome, I am glad you like it!

💬 Wandour, Aug 24th 2023 at 7:39 AM

thank you

I really am not a fan of the current pine color
