📢 LATEST UPDATE (v1.2.0)

  • 🔵 Lapis Lazuli Visual Overhaul: Completely replaced the default templates with brand new, hand-drawn custom textures for the entire Lapis Lazuli armor set and all matching tools.
  • Redstone Energized Retexture: Re-imagined the visual style for the Redstone armor set and toolkits, featuring a fresh, distinct, and vibrant aesthetic.

⚖️ BALANCE UPDATE (v1.1.2)

  • Emerald Overhaul: Emerald armor and tools can NO LONGER be repaired using emeralds.
  • Shulker Sword Tuning: Reduced the Levitation effect duration applied by the Shulker Sword from 100 ticks down to a balanced 50 ticks.
  • Slime Armor Adjustments: Removed the airborne damage decay mechanic (durability no longer drains automatically while jumping or flying). To balance this, the base durability multiplier has been lowered to 4, making the armor lightweight but very fragile!

🔧 HOTFIX UPDATE (v1.1.1)

  • Fixed Honey Armor Bug: Resolved a technical issue where the Honey Armor set would sometimes cause incorrect health and heart replication logic, leading to UI bugs or lack of regeneration.
  • Balance Adjustment: The broken heart-generation mechanic has been completely removed. It is now replaced with a sticky Knockback Resistance effect (+0.2 modifier per worn armor piece).

📢 LATEST UPDATE (v1.1.0)

  • The Custom Texture Update is here! Replaced default templates with brand new, hand-drawn custom textures for 6 armor and tool sets: Shulker, End Eye, Honey, Slime, Amethyst, Sculk and new look for the Emerald Sword!

⚠️ Technical Note: This modification adds tools, weapons, and armor sets only. No new blocks are generated or added to the game!
