Wooden Frames

Wooden Frames (also known as Wattle and Daub panels) are specialized decorative blocks that place a plaster-like daub surface inside a timber frame. These are essential for Tudor-style or medieval architecture.

Wood Variants

Frames can be crafted using any vanilla wood type, which changes the color of the timber border: * Oak * Spruce * Birch * Jungle * Acacia * Dark Oak

Frame Patterns

There are 4 distinct patterns for every wood type, determined by the arrangement of sticks in the crafting grid: 1. Plain: A simple square timber frame with a daub center. 2. Diagonal: A frame with a single diagonal timber brace. 3. Cross: A frame with an 'X' shaped timber brace. 4. Double Diagonal: A more complex bracing pattern often used for structural highlights.

Thatched Roofing

Thatched Roofing provides a realistic alternative to using wooden stairs for roofs. These blocks have a unique straw texture and are modeled to look like bundled hay.

Properties: Thatched roofing blocks are flammable and can be easily destroyed by fire.
Appearance: They feature a "wavy" texture that mimics the look of layered straw found on traditional cottages.

Mechanics

Firing Process

Unlike vanilla Bricks which are made by smelting pure Clay Balls, this mod requires the creation of Brick Clay first. 1. Combine Dirt, Sand, and Clay to get Brick Clay. 2. (Optional) Combine Brick Clay with Dye to get Stained Brick Clay. 3. Place the clay into a Furnace. 4. The output will be a Brick or a Stained Brick.

Wattle and Daub Construction

Wooden Frames are full blocks but are often used as "panels." In the 1.10.2 version, these blocks support connected textures if compatible resource packs or mods are installed, allowing the timber frames to connect seamlessly across multiple blocks.
