About this project

What does Stained Artifice add?

🏺 Stained Artifice

 

"Elevate your builds with artisanal light and medieval prestige."


Stained Artifice is a dedicated expansion for builders seeking to add a unique "artisanal" touch to their creations. Designed specifically to complement medieval, gothic, and ecclesiastical architectural styles, this mod brings new life to your windows through the ancient art of leaded glass.


✨ Key Features:

  • 🎨 Complex Artistic Motifs
    Discover a vast collection of leaded stained glass with intricate designs. This isn't just colored glass; it's storytelling through light. Includes unique motifs like:
    • Celestial Compass 🧭
    • Clock of the Arborescent Dawn 🌳
    • The Great Mechanism ⚙️
    • Void-Stained Eternity 🌌
    • And more

 

  • 🧱 Seamless Rock Integration
    Unlike standard glass, these windows are embedded in frames that adapt perfectly to your architecture:
    • 12 Rock Types: Full compatibility with Andesite, Basalt, Granite, and all other vanilla rocks.
    • 3 Finishes: Frames automatically match your walls in Bricks, Cobblestone, or Polished Rock.

 

  • 📐 Versatile Shapes and Formats
    Break the square grid with various window geometries:
    • Standard: Square and Round versions (1x1).
    • Elegant: Vertical Rectangles (1x2).
    • Grandeur: Large Composite Windows (2x2), perfect for cathedral rose windows or grand hall openings.

 

  • 🛠️ New Crafting System
    To craft these masterpieces, you will need to master new tools and materials:
    • Glassmaker Tools: The specialized kit required for delicate glasswork.
    • Lead Cames: Authentic lead strips used to assemble the glass fragments.
    • Pattern System: Discover and use specific patterns for each unique motif.

 


🚀 Planned Updates & Roadmap:

Stained Artifice is an evolving project! I am already working on future additions to expand your architectural palette:

  • New Geometries: More complex window shapes and sizes to fit even the most ambitious cathedrals.
  • Expanded Motif Library: A wider selection of artistic textures and historical stained glass designs.
  • Additional Frames: New frame styles and materials to match different building themes.
