About this project
What does Bits And Chisels add?


Bits and Chisels is a Fabric mod for modern Minecraft that lets you remove small bits from blocks using chisels. You can use these bits to build detailed decorations or whatever else you want. Requires Fabric API. Has Canvas Renderer support for shaders. Uses greedy meshing and the Fabric Renderer API to achieve high FPS post-1.13 rendering changes. This mod was inspired by Chisel and Bits.


**Q: Will This Work With Sodium?**The latest version of Sodium (https://modrinth.com/mod/sodium) and Indium (https://modrinth.com/mod/indium) must be installed to use Sodium. Otherwise blocks will be invisible!
Q: Will This Work With Optifine or Iris?
Optifine will not work and is not supported. Iris will work with Sodium/Indium but bits will not have per block shaders.
Q: I Gave Myself An Internal Item And The Game Crashed!
Use the creative tab please, using /give on bitsandchisels:bits_block or bitsandchisels:bit_item will likely cause crashes.
Q: Did You Port C&B?
No, all the code is 100% original.
Q: Will This Lag My Game?
Lag should be minimal post 2.1.0.
Comparison vs older version and C&B:
**Q: Forge?**No. Use C&B instead if you want similar functionality on Forge.
Q: Will You Port to $OLD_VERSION?
No.
