Redden's Stone Lanterns: New Lantern Types

How many different light sources are featured by the vanilla version of Minecraft? They include jack o'lanterns, torches, soul torches, and several block options. But if the player needs to add some colorful decorative elements that would also be capable of emitting light, the content of Minecraft becomes obviously insufficient. It is here where different mods come to the rescue, and today, we are going to tell you why you should install Redden's Stone Lanterns despite its relatively small number of downloads compared to other mods in its category. The fact is that it adds really cool elements to the game.

The Redden's Stone Lanterns add-on brings not just new types of lanterns but true works of art in an East-Asian style. They include different options and pillars for them of different sizes and widths, which will complement the overall style. All this looks very beautiful, and even global decoration mods cannot boast such a design and detail level. We suggest you take a look at our screenshots to visually evaluate the potential of this mod.

Review of the Redden's Stone Lanterns Mod

Decorative design plays a significant role in Minecraft and complements any building, structure, house, castle, or city. In this regard, various minor details become more important than some large objects. In particular, that is true of lanterns. However, there are few types of them in the vanilla game version, and their appearance is far from impressive. That is why various user add-ons are constantly being released that allow you to expand the game content. Thus, today, we have decided to consider a mod called Redden's Stone Lanterns that features lanterns in the style of East Asia. The designer of this mod has skillfully implemented all the elements, beginning with the stands and ending with inclusions and small details.

This mob brings about two dozen lantern types made in a unitary style to Minecraft. They differ in terms of shape, size, height, and individual details. That will allow anyone to choose a particular size according to their needs and install it where they want. Thus, some types of lanterns can be placed outdoors, and others indoors. Some of them are tall and resemble street lamps, while others can be placed on the floor. The options are numerous, and that is a big advantage for the players, giving them a range to choose from.

We have already reviewed different mods that add new types of lanterns to Minecraft more than once. However, they often differ merely in terms of colors or materials used. Here, everything is different: the new lanterns are made in about the same style and have the same color but can boast different shapes. Some of them have a wide roof, others have an oblong base, and still others are cubic. And it is indeed cool that the designer has made such a unique project where everything has a unitary style but is still diverse.

Another important category of items in Redden's Stone Lanterns mod are pillars on which the lanterns stand. You will be able to install any lantern on them, and everything will look harmonious. Again, there are six pillars, but they can be combined with all the light sources. You can guess how many combinations you can create. All this looks colorful and unusual, and if you also find a proper degree, you can even ensure a nice visual picture without using shaders and tweaks for Minecraft. In short, we certainly recommend you install this add-on, as there are a lot of cool things here.

Cobblestone and coal are mainly used for crafting both the lanterns and pillars. However, there is a unique feature here: only XL Stone lantern has a recipe in the usual sense of the term. As for other options, they can be created from it in the crafting table. A cool mechanics, isn't it? So you will not have to get confused and memorize every recipe with the help of JEI. It will be enough just to craft enough XL Stone Lanterns and modify them.

The Redden's Stone Lanterns add-on will please users with its detail level and style, especially given that not that many mods for this game are created in an East-Asian style. A whole range of elaborate light sources is available here. Even though this add-on has a relatively small number of downloads, its fan base has already formed, as there are users who are constantly downloading it. It is available for Minecraft 1.18.2, 1.19.2, and 1.20.1 and continues to be improved by the designer. It requires Forge, so you will not be able to launch it otherwise.
