Do vanilla fences just not cut it for you anymore? Fence Overhaul aims to address qualms with vanilla fences by adding new ones. Because Fence Overhaul doesn't just replace the vanilla fence, many awesome things can be built with a combination of vanilla and improved fences!
This mod currently only adds diagonal fences, but many more fence-based improvements are planned / in development.
The names and crafting recipes are subject to change.
S = stick; F = fence; # = nothing

FFF ===> Diagonal Fence (x3)

I didn't realize how much I needed this mod in my building until I saw it. I really hope it gets updated to 1.16.

this is cursed
Can u update to 1.16.3?
"but many more fence-based improvements are planned / in development" XD
Now all we need is diagonal vertical fences (i.e. for staircase bannisters) and we're set.

Yes.
Y para el mod Biome O Plenty?
I'm confused, I would have thought that the optimal implementation would simply be: fence posts that detect adjacent posts, and attach diagonally, in addition to the normal 90 degree detection. Not an entirely separate/new block.
Too difficult to implement this way?
Playing sky factory 4 I find that rabbits jump over these fences with ease ...
Can you add an option to have overhaul fences replace vanilla fences?
Are there any plans to update it to 1.14.4?
now if only they would go uphill like in that minecraft cursed images thingy.
In reply to minerdzgaming:
As I recall there's this really old mod called like Adventure Craft or something which adds those, barely remember it though.
This is indeed amazing. Sad that you can't seem to get Teotoo's permission for MineLB to be ported over. Perhaps you can do an unofficial port, so some of us can take a look at what it could be?
1.7.10?
do you have any plans on making the walls do this as well.
The diagonal fences are brilliant! It's so nice to see another little rebellion against everything-at-90-degrees Minecraft orthodoxy. :) I'm using a 256x testure pack (MojoKraft V16) and the diagonal fences just automatically pick up the texture. They are not a PERFECT match to a vanilla fence, but you have to look closely to see the discrepancy. Today is the first time I've used them and I love them already.
I'm not sure what else you already have planned, but Minecraft has long cried out for a double-height fence gate, and a double-width fence gate, and for that matter a double-height, double-width gate. (Either break-in-the-middle like vanilla fence gates or single-sided and swinging open like a regular door. A 2x1 doorlike gate seems like it should be easy to implement, pretty much vanilla door mechanics with a fence-like model.)
Oh hey, here's another idea for you: Horizontal fenceposts.
"...Wait, say what?"
Say you've laid out a farm plot and you want to place lights above it. What if you could place two or three fenceposts to make a vetical post either side, then put a horizontal fencepost rail or beam between them to hang lights from?
Or maybe you just want a different style of fence, with wooden rails between stone pillars.
Lemme quickly image-bash up something to show you what I mean...
Basically it's just a fencepost with no side rails, turned on its side.
