GlymeraStatues Marble Edition - Marble Mob Statues (Lightweight)

This is the lightweight Marble-only spin-off of GlymeraStatues, made for machines with weak or integrated graphics and for large modpacks: same statues, but only about a third of the full edition's texture load. If block textures turned black with the full edition, this one is for you. The two editions must never be installed together - they define the same blocks, so pick one. Marble statues survive switching between editions in both directions.

Turn every creature in the game into a marble statue. 155 statues - every mob cast in marble - as real placeable blocks, each on a stone plinth sized to fit.

What is GlymeraStatues Marble Edition?

The plugin takes the actual in-game model of every creature and casts it as a solid marble statue block standing on a stone pedestal. These are pure decorative blocks: no AI, no mob behaviour, no entity. Just beautiful statues you can place, mine and re-place anywhere.

That's 155 creatures, covering everything: beasts, birds, fish, livestock, the undead, golems, elementals, void creatures and more.

Pure server-side plugin - no client mod required.

Highlights

• Real creature shapes - each statue is the creature's own model, not a reskinned cube
• Natural marble finish - with a stone-like surface relief
• Size-adaptive plinth - every statue stands on a stone pedestal sized to its feet; the creature and the plinth never overlap
• True relative sizes - a mouse statue is tiny, a whale or rex is a towering monument
• Direction-aware placement - statues rotate to face the way you're looking when you place them
• Pickaxe-mineable - mine a statue to get it back as an item and re-place it elsewhere
• Owner protection - only the player who placed a statue (and operators) can break it
• Light on the GPU - roughly one third of the full edition's texture footprint, and a much faster first join

How To Get Statues

Creative menu: every statue is in the creative inventory under Blocks - search "Statue" or "Marble".

Survival - the Mystery Statue: craft a Mystery Statue at the Workbench and it turns into a statue of a random creature (always marble in this edition). A fun way to collect them.

Crafting Recipe

The creature is picked at random from all 155. The recipe can be disabled in the config.

Configuration

Generated at first startup: mods/de.glymera_GlymeraStatuesMarble/config.json

Installation

1. Remove GlymeraStatues-x.jar (full edition) if present - the two editions must not run together. If both are installed anyway, the Marble edition disables itself and logs a warning.
2. Place GlymeraStatuesMarble-1.0.0.jar in your server's mods/ folder
3. Start (or restart) the server
4. Done!
