Macaw's Trapdoors in All the Mods 11

Macaw's Trapdoors is a building-block mod that fills a gap in vanilla: it adds vanilla-style trapdoors in every plank variation. If you've ever wanted a trapdoor to match every wood type in your build, this is the mod for it.^[1]

It doesn't stop at plank recolours. The mod also adds new trapdoor designs, and the latest version brings Ranch Trapdoors, Bamboo Trapdoors and more.^[1]

In this pack

The pack ships Macaw's Trapdoors version 1.1.5. It has been part of the pack since version 0.0.1 or earlier, so it's a long-standing part of the mod list rather than a recent addition.^[2]

Think of it as a decoration and building mod: it gives you more trapdoor styles for doors, windows, hatches and detailing in your bases.^[1]

Macaw's Trapdoors adds vanilla-style trapdoors in every plank variation, plus some brand-new trapdoor styles. Getting started is simple: pick a wood and a style, then craft it.^[1]

Pick a style

The styles in this pack include Barn, Barred, Barrel, Beach, Bark, Classic, Cottage, Four Panel, Glass, Mystic, Paper, Ranch, Swamp, Tropical and Whispering. Not every wood gets every style. For example, Birch has a Tropical trapdoor but Acacia doesn't.^[3]

Craft a few and compare

The recipes in the pack's recipe dump are shaped crafting recipes added by the mod. Here are a few to start with. The Classic one is a good baseline.^[3]

Try the other woods

Every wood has its own set, so you can match trapdoors to whatever you're building with. The pack includes Acacia, Bamboo, Birch, Cherry and Crimson sets. Try Cherry Cottage Trapdoor or Crimson Barn Trapdoor to see how the same style changes with the wood.^[1][3]

This is a short section, because Macaw's Trapdoors is a building-block mod. The project page describes it as adding vanilla-style trapdoors in every plank variation, plus some new trapdoor designs. The sources here describe no machines, multiblocks, power, fluids or item automation for it.^[1]

What the mod adds

The project page says the latest version adds new Ranch Trapdoors and Bamboo Trapdoors, among others. The recipe list in this pack shows the same spread: designs like Barn, Barred, Barrel, Beach, Classic, Cottage, Four Panel, Glass, Mystic, Paper, Swamp and Whispering show up for woods such as acacia and bamboo.^[1][3]

Examples are Acacia Ranch Trapdoor, Bamboo Trapdoor and Bamboo Tropical Trapdoor.^[3]

How you get them

Every trapdoor recipe visible in this pack's recipe dump is a shaped crafting recipe labelled as a mod recipe, so none of the visible ones are marked as changed by the pack. Each trapdoor has its own recipe, so you craft the exact variant you want. Here is one as an example:^[3]

Bamboo TrapdoorMod recipe

6 × Bamboo

Recipe id: mcwtrpdoors:bamboo_trapdoor

This is the Bamboo Trapdoor recipe, a shaped crafting recipe that the recipe dump labels as a mod recipe.

Good news: this one is simple. In this pack, Macaw's Trapdoors has no tier ladder that I can show you. Every trapdoor recipe in the recipe dump is a shaped crafting recipe labeled as a mod recipe, so these are made by crafting, not by a multi-step machine chain.^[3]

What you can craft

The recipes shown cover the wood types acacia, bamboo, birch, cherry, crimson, dark oak and jungle. Styles include Acacia Bark Trapdoor, Acacia Barn Trapdoor, Acacia Glass Trapdoor and Acacia Mystic Trapdoor. A few in-game names differ from their ids: Acacia Waffle Trapdoor is the Waffle trapdoor, and Acacia Mesh Trapdoor is the Mesh trapdoor.^[3]

The dump lists 110 more recipes that were not shown here, so I can't give you the full list of wood types and styles. Check the recipe viewer in-game for the complete set.^[3]
