📋 About This Mod
# | DESCRIPTION | Adds an unlit variant to campfires and soul fire items. Crafted campfires will be unlit. You can light them with a flint and steel and put them out with a shovel. Mining the campfire with silk touch will preserve its state. Note: Campfires from other sources, like trading and creative mode, will be lit. # | VERSIONS | Currently supports Minecraft Java ```1.21.4 - 26.2```. # | COMPATIBILITY | Incompatible with any datapack modifying the loot table or crafting recipe of the campfire. The texture can be changed in items/campfire_unlit and items/soul_campfire_unlit. # | OTHER CREATORS' PACKS | I know there are other packs that do this same thing, and may even use the same (or very similar) texture. I developed this without inspiration from these, and used vanilla features and avoided the use of functions. <br> ### Here are the 2 datapacks I found that had this idea first: (https://modrinth.com/datapack/nice-campfires) <br> (https://modrinth.com/datapack/unlit-campfire-placement) ## | Patreon | Join <a href="https://patreon.com/Nerd_1023?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink">my new Patreon</a> to support my projects!
