Better Nether Bricks

Ever wanted to build with red nether bricks but found it too expensive? Worry no more! Now nether bricks and nether wart related blocks are much less painful to craft with this datapack! 😀

I had the inspiration to make it not just because I don’t find much data packs / mods that do this, but because of the new cinnabar block, I really wanted to build with cinnabar bricks and red nether bricks because it is such a pretty combination, but I always hated how expensive this block is, as a person who really loves the color red. So, if you want to use these blocks in a balanced and fair way in survival, this datapack aims to do just that! 😀

Also, feel free to use it on any modpacks, multiplayer worlds or servers. I just ask to give credits.

New recipes list:

• nether brick: 4 netherrack in a 4×4 now will result in 2 nether bricks. alternatively, smelting in a furnace like vanilla will yield 1 netherrack for 1 brick, so pick whichever is better for you!

• nether bricks: 4 nether brick’s like vanilla will now output 4 nether bricks instead of 1, or smelting red nether bricks in a regular furnace will turn it back into a nether bricks block.

• red nether bricks: 1 nether bricks block and 1 nether wart now will result in 1 red nether bricks.

• nether wart block: 4 nether warts in a 4×4 now results in 1 nether wart block, making it easier to craft with a nether wart farm.

• nether wart: 1 nether wart block now yields 4 nether warts, making it now farmable in crimsom tree farms, but balanced so that nether wart farms don’t become obsolete.
