Timber Mod by MYCF [FABRIC|QUILT] (1.20.1)
Chopping down trees in Minecraft is one of the most repetitive tasks in the game. You swing your axe, break a block, collect the log, and then repeat the process until the entire tree is gone. It is tedious, time-consuming, and eats through your tool durability faster than almost anything else. The Timber Mod by MYCF [FABRIC|QUILT] (1.20.1) solves this problem elegantly by letting you fell an entire tree with a single block break. It is one of those quality-of-life additions that, once you try it, you will wonder how you ever played without it.
What Does the Timber Mod Do?
At its core, this mod changes how tree harvesting works. When you break any log block on a tree, the mod detects the connected logs and breaks them all at once. You do not need to target the root or the bottom block. Any log will trigger the effect. The axe durability decreases for every block that gets broken, and enchantments like Unbreaking and Efficiency behave exactly as you would expect. This keeps the experience balanced while still saving you a massive amount of time.
The mod works on all vanilla tree types, from oak and spruce to jungle and acacia. It also supports modded trees, as long as the log blocks are registered under the BlockTags Logs tag. That means it plays nicely with most biome and dimension mods that add new wood types.
Key Features and Controls
Flexible Chopping Modes
You are not locked into one behavior. The mod gives you control over how it operates:
- Right-click to switch between chopping one log at a time and chopping all connected logs.
- Press L (lowercase) to disable or enable full tree mode entirely.
- Both keybindings can be reassigned in the controls menu to suit your preferences.
- The mod notifies nearby leaves when a tree is felled, encouraging faster decay so you are not left with floating foliage.
Server Side and Client Side Versions
The Timber Mod by MYCF [FABRIC|QUILT] (1.20.1) comes in two distinct builds. The STimber jar is server-side only, meaning players do not need to install anything on their clients. The CTimber jar is the client-side version, which must be installed on both the server and every client. It is critical that you do not mix these two versions, as doing so will cause compatibility issues. If you are running a public server and want the simplest setup, the server-side option is usually the better choice.
Commands and Gamerules
Server administrators and players alike get access to a set of useful commands. The timber toggle axe command switches the mode of the axe you are holding. The timber toggle player command toggles your personal ability to change axe modes. Moderators with permission level 4 can use timber lock_or_unlock_all_players to control whether players can individually adjust their axes. There is also a gamerule called enableTimber under the players category, which is set to true by default. Setting it to false forces everyone to mine one block at a time regardless of their axe mode.
Supported Versions and Loaders
This release targets Minecraft 1.20.1 and is built for the Fabric mod loader. It also runs on Quilt, thanks to the Quilted Fabric API. If you are on a different Minecraft version, you will need to check whether a matching build exists. For 1.20.1 specifically, this is the version to grab.
How to Install the Timber Mod
Getting the mod running is straightforward. Here is the process:
- Install Fabric API for Minecraft 1.20.1. If you use Quilt, install Quilted Fabric API instead.
- Download Timber Mod by MYCF [FABRIC|QUILT] (1.20.1) and place the jar file in your mods folder.
- Decide whether you need the server-side or client-side build and install it in the correct location.
- Launch the game and verify the mod is loaded.
If you prefer a simpler route, the foxygame.net launcher handles the entire process for you. It offers a curated add-on catalog where you can find Timber Mod by MYCF [FABRIC|QUILT] (1.20.1), install it with one click, and let the launcher manage version compatibility and automatic updates without any manual file juggling. That approach removes the guesswork, especially if you run multiple mods at once.
Dependencies and Compatibility Notes
For this mod to work, you need Fabric API, or Quilted Fabric API if you are on Quilt. Without these dependencies, the mod will not load. As with any mod installation, always back up your worlds before adding new content. While the Timber Mod is stable and widely used, backups are a smart habit that protects your builds from unexpected conflicts.
