Ever thought Vanilla Minecraft was too plain? Well, this should kind of help with that. Java Expanded adds a handful of nice things to the game while definitely keeping the Vanilla feel. (This is only a prototype, so it's not the best version.)

Additions include:

  • A new structure
  • A small handful of advancements
  • 1 Painting

Yeah, that's pretty much it lol.

(Also, there are older versions of the mod listed on CurseForge. So, if there's any confusion surrounding versions, there are 3 older versions available.)
