This data pack allows players to start their game in the Nether instead of the Overworld, and supplies all the resources needed to do so. It also tweaks the drop rates of various new blocks from the 1.16 snapshots to be more in line with other parts of Minecraft, such as foliage blocks requiring shears to harvest and fungi occasionally dropping from their respective Wart blocks similar to leaves dropping from saplings.
Notable Features
- Players start out and respawn in the Nether
- New spawn points can be set in the Nether by crafting and lighting a campfire Removed. Use Respawn Anchors instead.
- Cobblestone can now be crafted by combining Basalt and Gravel in a crafting grid Removed. Use Blackstone instead.
- Foliage blocks (Sprouts, Roots, etc.) only drop when using shears
- Wart blocks have a small chance to drop their respective mushrooms, but will only drop themselves when using Silk Touch
- Nylium must be harvested using Silk Touch or it will only drop Netherrack, similar to Mycelium Added to vanilla
- Wild Nether Wart has a chance to spawn randomly
- Craftable Shroomlights
- Piglins drop Raw Pork
- Soul Sand smelts into glass
- Furnaces can be used to smelt trace amounts of iron from quartz
I can't craft cobblestone or cobble stuff

Use blackstone instead
Can I use a nether portal to get out of here?
In reply to mortimer_kerman:
Yes, you can. You would just need to find enough obsidian in nether fortress chests to build one.
In reply to Darkiceflame42:
Or with the piglin trade.
Any way to build a portal and get to the overworld?
edit: oof did not read the files section
edit 2: how to get a water bucket?
This is nice and all, but it sounds like there's no way to obtain diamonds?
In reply to sonicspeed2:
Diamonds can be found in Nether Fortresses, but currently I haven't implemented any other ways of getting them.
