UPDATE: This mod is now hosted on github.

Alright well I sort of missed secret_passages mod and last night it came to me a way to have it but it be easier to implement and work fairly well. Today Fake Blocks is born.

This mod is simple. If you have a mod that it supports installed, you can craft fake blocks. Not all blocks are supported for making fake blocks but most are. Look into the init.lua for blocks supported for conversion into fake blocks.

Example: moreblocks:ironstone
S= Sand
B= Block to make into a fake block

S S S
S B S
S S S

Result: a fake ironstone block.

Screenshots not needed as textures are exactly same as real blocks.

Currently supported mods:
* various
* industrial
* moreblocks
* obsidian
* default
More to come?

Uhmm, I just downloaded this is what I get with the textures....:

They're all just a mix of colors. You have to create a texture pack folder and enter the textures of each one, with the correct name with each texture.

Sorry, I cannot do a review when its lke this D:.

You have to have the mod installed to craft the fake blocks of the mod blocks.

I do not understand, why use this when you can get the same effect with a player detector and a piston?

eh? This mod simply lets you craft blocks you can "walk through" without any complicated setups. It was inspired by the secret_passages mod. The blocks look identical to the original block (uses same exact textures) so impossible to notice without some accident.
