Quick answer
Which EarlyStage release should I use?
EarlyStage 1.2.0+1.21.1 targets 1.21.1 with Fabric. Installation on the client is optional. Installation on the dedicated server is optional. All 2 required mods have matching files.
Where it goes
Is EarlyStage required on the client, server, or both?
Installation on the client is optional. Installation on the dedicated server is optional.
The source marks this as usable on both the client and server.
What else does EarlyStage 1.2.0+1.21.1 need?
1.2.0+1.21.1. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install Fabric API, Cloth Config API first. We found matching files for this game-version and loader setup.
We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

About this project
What does EarlyStage add?

EarlyStage adds a flint tool set for the start of the beginning. It adds the requirement to use an axe for logs.
It also adds a sieve which can get customized item drops with a datapack.
Stones laying around in the forest for more immersive gaming.
How to get started: break leaves to get sticks, find gravel to get flint, gather rocks, craft a crafting rock, put sticks and flint on it and hit it a couple times with another rock!

The sieve can be used to sieve blocks like dirt or sand. Try it out and see what is hidden in the dirt.


This mod is developed for Fabric.
There are no plans to develop a Forge version.
