Vanilla Builders Extension is a mod that adds all the missing stairs, slabs, fences, gates, and even walls for vanilla blocks. The blocks that are added use the textures of their respective vanilla parent-block. That way they will work with every resource pack.
Release version 1.0.14 is now available for Minecraft 1.16.4

PLEASE 1.17
Hey, Can you check my DM's. Thanks
in the creative menu, the tabs for walls, gates, fences etc are empty but I can find them when I search for them in the search tab, not sure if this is a bug but can be handy if it was possible to view them in the tabs. im using 1.16.5
In reply to TheWolfDen_TTV:
They should be in the tabs. Could be something with 1.16.5, I have not tested creative running it in that version, the latest build was tested on 1.16.4. I will load it up and take a look.
y no stone slab
In reply to stopnowaaa:
Stone slab is there. If you are in survival could be the crafting options in config.
Loving this mod but was wondering if you could add glowstone slabs because that is about the only block this mod is missing.
In reply to diablo050189:
Sorry for the late reply, I will look at that in the next update.
1.16.5?
Can the dirt slabs be turned into farmland? Or can grass grow on them?
In reply to traveldesign:
No to both. If you want grass slabs you have to craft them. And no farmland variations are included.
Hi, i don't want to sound enitled, but could you possibly remove this from the expermental category? i'm trying to make a modpack because i got a bug where i can't run my mods using the forge launcher, and this mod is vital to most of my builds. just asking.
In reply to ratsarse1:
Sure. Where are you seeing experimental category?
In reply to wazmaster_jastin:
I didn't see it was experimental, but it didn't show up in curseforge, so i assumed it was.
1.16.5 ????
In reply to biggy_cheese_hi:
latest version works with 1.16.5, just try first and then add too many question marks to your comment.
Hey, great mod!
however i wanted to ask if you could add the features of the main blocks to your modded blocks.
So that redstone slabs also activate redstone and that you get hurt from magma stair etc. would be really great.
Also that the glass stairs, slabs etc also connect when you have Optifine would be nice.
In reply to T0bs3l:
Thanks. I purposefully did not include the redstone functionality. Most of the blocks should include the features, I probably missed magma so I will have to take a look at that.
I have never used optifine so I am not sure about that one. I may look into if it is possible.
In reply to wazmaster_jastin:
Hey, thanks for you reply, OptiFine would be great because it looks kinda odd if you have not connected glass next to connected glass. I just wondered with the Redstone but okay XD.
Anyway, i think i found a few bugs with soul sand slabs and stairs and soul soil slabs and stairs.
First, when the slabs aren't the top one of a block you don't get the Speed Boost from the soul speed enchantment, same when you stand on the bottom half of the stairs.
Secondly, you cant mine either the slabs or stairs fast, so efficiency V and Haste II doesnt work with the shovel, you just mine it as slow as normal.
Thank you very much for the great mod, keep up the good work!
Great mod! However, I'm using a resource pack that utilizes the infested blocks, so it'd be great if you added slabs, stairs, etc. for those blocks as well!
