Inside The Block is a visual-focused mod that reimagines vanilla container blocks by making them 3D, hollow, and interactive. Blocks like the furnace are no longer opaque cubes — you can actually see what’s happening inside them in real time.

3D hollow Blast Furnace and Smoker model
Fixed missing textures inside the models
Fixed a bug with retrieving the fluid texture that had the game crash in some cases

FEATURES (v1.0.0)

3D hollow Furnace model
Items visibly cooking inside the Furnace in real time
Fully synced with the Furnace’s internal state
Purely visual — no changes to vanilla mechanics

Support for additional container blocks (Blast Furnace, Smoker, etc.)
More detailed item animations
Optional configuration settings
Compatibility improvements and optimizations

Inside The Block focuses on immersion and visual clarity, making Minecraft’s world feel more alive by showing you what normally stays hidden.

(Technically still Minecraft - just with less mystery inside your blocks!)
