Emerald Tools and Armor Mod – Ever wanted to have another use for emeralds other than decoration and trading? Well now you can thanks to this mod!
Emerald Tools and Armor Mod - What is it?
Emerald Tools and Armor Mod is a mod for Minecraft that, well, allows you to craft emeralds into tools and armor, rather than using them for trading with villagers, or currency if you treat it as such.
Even though this mod is going to be used very rarely, mainly due to the fact that emeralds are extremely rare, the tools and armor will definitely give you a treat if you manage to gather enough emeralds. The emerald tools are essentially diamond tools, except for the fact that the tools break blocks at a slightly faster rate (with the exception of the shovel, but in reality, the only kind shovel you need is a stone or iron shovel). The emerald armor, however, has the same durability as diamond armor, except that it’s green. If you manage to find that one villager that will trade an emerald with you for something cheap, such as 20 pieces of wheat (you can usually find much more than that if you are in a big village), you can have quite an advantage early-game.
All in all, I would recommend this mod to anyone who would like to give emerald more uses than just currency. Now for Some screenshots of the mod.

So you want to install a mod for Minecraft? Well, thanks to this guide, it's easy as 1-2-3! Before we start however, here are some precautions you might want to read:
Be sure to get WinRAR or 7-zip. It's a necessity for installing mods.
Be sure to backup your "minecraft.jar" before doing anything! We don't want you to have to force update now, do we?
Be sure to delete META-INF inside "minecraft.jar".
Be sure to install the mods listed in the yellow box below first. They are usually mods required for the mod you want to install to work.
The Forge and Modloader installation instructions only apply if the yellow box below states that the mod requires either Modloader of Forge. If the yellow box does not, use the "Old-Fashioned" instructions.
The Forge and Modloader instructions only apply to the mod itself. Any mod in the yellow box below must be installed using the "old-fashioned" instructions.

Here's the steps to installing that mod you want, or how to install Forge, Modloader, :
Close Minecraft. This is to ensure that the files will overwrite properly.
Open up Windows Explorer.
In the navigation bar, type "%AppData%".
Navigate to "Roaming". (Skip this step if you can't see a roaming folder.)
Open up a folder called ".minecraft".
Open up a folder called "bin".
Right click the file called "minecraft" or "minecraft.jar".
Select open with.
Open with WinRAR.
Open up the mod. (be sure to extract the mod first.)
If there are no specific instructions included with the mod, it is safe to assume that you drag all the files in.
Be sure to delete META-INF. I can't stress this enough.
That's it! Have fun!

So you noticed this mod requires Minecraft Forge or Modloader, correct? Installing Forge and Modloader mods are just as easy as installing mods the old-fashioned way! In fact, it's even easier once you get passed the main part Here's the steps:
Install Minecraft Forge, Modloader, or any mod dependency listed in the yellow box below using the "Old-Fashioned" installation instructions to the left.
Start Minecraft up. Close Minecraft afterwards.
Navigate to the ".minecraft" folder. Once you open it, you will notice that there is a "mods" folder. If there isn't a mods folder to be seen, create one.
Place the mod inside the "mods" folder.
Open Minecraft up and have fun!
For the most part, that's it when it comes to Modloader and Forge mods. Also, please note that you no longer have to do steps 1 and 2 once you already installed it the first time (you may need to reinstall them however, if you updated your client).
Also, just a heads up, if you don't see the mod loaded into the game, you might have to extract the mod into a folder. Most mods work in their zipped form, but some require you to extract them first. Have fun!
Important: This mod requires you to install the following mods:
