What is Mod Maker for Minecraft PE APK

Mod Maker for Minecraft Pocket Edition gives aspiring creators all the tools they need to create a customized Minecraft experience. Minecraft is all about giving players a limitless amount of creativity to build their own worlds, and while the core package comes with a huge number of different options, that's just scratching the surface of the game's magic. The explosive popularity of Minecraft on PCs and consoles has created a cottage industry of passionate fans creating original content. The marketplace for Minecraft mods is practically limitless, and they constitute everything from simple texture packs to advanced machinery and makeshift artificial intelligence. Mod Maker for Minecraft Pocket Edition intends to bring this level of customization to the mobile experience, and while it doesn't allow the level of complexity that you'll find in the most advanced mods, it does provide a meaningful amount of tools that players can use to stretch their creative muscles.

The biggest appeal of Mod Maker is that it allows you to mock up a pretty substantial selection of modifications without having to learn any coding whatsoever. And given the negligible barrier to entry here, Mod Maker allows for some pretty impressive results. Best of all, your new creations don't have to exist apart from the progression loop of Minecraft. You can key up any creation you make to a given recipe, so players who upload your mods still have a means to acquire your creations without just uploading them directly to their world. But if you do want to just plant your new items in the world, you have the option to do that as well. You can determine what items drop when you break a particular block or kill a particular mob, and that gives players a huge amount of control in how they choose to build out their worlds.

Breaking things down to brass tacks, this mod allow you to create new items and mods and both determine their statistics and assign them textures. Six different custom texture sizes are available, and this utility even comes packed with its own library of custom textures. That means that everyone from experienced designers to newbies can hit the ground running and create the items of their dreams.

Mod Maker for Minecraft Pocket Edition isn't the revelation it could be, but that's to be expected given the severe level of limitations that come with the mobile experience. If you're coming to this app expecting to find a vast suite of tools with advanced options, you won't find it here. But users looking to implement their own home brewed materials without having to learn how to code in the process will find a lot to enjoy. In the same way that Minecraft Pocket Edition feels like a stripped down and simplified version of the base Minecraft experience, Mod Maker feels like a simplified gateway into the modding experience for entry level designers.

Pros:

  • A versatile creation tool accessible to anyone
  • Thousands of textures built in and easy options for importing your own

Cons:

  • Lack of coding options really limits your creation options
  • Can be difficult to create simpler items
