Custom Mobs Framework

✨ New Features

• Massive Ability Expansion (40 Active & 32 Passive Abilities):
  • 40 Active Abilities: Added a huge roster of boss and combat skills including Meteor Strike, Chain Lightning, Vortex/Black Hole, Laser Beam, Time Slow Zone, Boomerang Blade, Homing Missiles, Flame Breath, Healing Totem, Orbital Blades, Void Rift, Hook Pull, Celestial Beam, and more.
  • 32 Passive Abilities: Added passive traits including Lifesteal, Dodge/Evasion, Damage Cap, Explosive Death, Split on Death, Armor Shred, Spell Reflection, Adaptive Armor, Shadow Cloak, Frostbite Aura, Undying Will, and more.
  • Ground Warning Indicators: Area-of-effect abilities now display visual warning rings and telegraphs on the ground before striking.
• Animated Custom Projectiles:
  • Projectiles now support both 2D animated textures (sprite strips) and 3D GeckoLib / Java model animations (idle/flight/impact animations) right from the Projectile Creator menu.
• Mob Creator Search Bar:
  • Added a live search bar in the Mob Creator menu to quickly find and filter settings, stats, and abilities.
• Fast Asset Scanning Option:
  • Added a restrict_asset_scope_to_custommobs config setting (enabled by default) so the mod only scans the CustomMobs folder instead of every mod in your modpack.

🛠️ Fixes & Improvements

• Custom Death Animations Fixed:
  • Fixed a bug where dying mobs would tip over 90 degrees using Minecraft's default fall-over animation instead of playing their custom death animation.
  • Mobs now stay upright while playing their custom death animation, hold their final pose until they disappear, and automatically wait for the full length of the animation before despawning.
  • Improved animation matching so animations named with prefixes (like animation.mob.death or die) are found automatically.
• Menu Freeze & Duplicate Models Fixed:
  • Fixed the long freeze when opening model, texture, or animation lists in large modpacks.
  • Fixed duplicate .geo model names showing up multiple times in the model selector.
• Multi-Attack Combos Fixed:
  • Custom Multi-Attack combos now work properly with all attack styles and abilities instead of only basic melee attacks.
• Ability Projectiles Fixed:
  • Fixed an issue where new projectile abilities would shoot a default vanilla fireball instead of the custom projectile you assigned to them.
• Server-Friendly Time Slow Ability:
  • Reworked the Time Slow ability so it smoothly slows nearby targets inside the zone without lagging or freezing the server for other players.
