1.1.0 — The Ostrich Update

New

• Ostrich: a fast mount for the early game, with one rider. Less health and a lower jump than a horse; it cannot wear armor or carry chests.
• Spawns in savannas, and rarely in deserts and badlands.
• Bird diet: seeds, wheat, hay bales, apples, sweet berries and melon slices. Golden carrots and golden apples breed them.
• Trust and taming: feeding a wild ostrich shows green sparkles as its trust grows, then a burst and a call when it is ready. Tame it like a horse, then add a saddle to ride.
• Behavior: wild adults defend themselves with a threat display and a kick. Ostriches peck food from your hand.
• Breeding: chicks inherit their parents' speed, jump and health.
• Items: giant ostrich eggs (a thrown egg may hatch a chick), raw and cooked ostrich meat, and a spawn egg.
• Sounds: made from real ostrich recordings, with subtitles.
• Simply Eggs: with Simply Eggs installed, the ostrich egg works like any other egg and stacks to 64.

Changes

• Optimization: item icons now use 128×128 textures, with the same look in game. The mod goes from 14.8 MB to 1.2 MB, and the item texture atlas from 8192×8192 to 1024×1024 (about 250 MB less video memory).
• New texture for the peacock egg.
• Cooked peacock meat restores 3.5 drumsticks.
• First NeoForge version (26.3).
• Translations for all 15 supported languages.

1.0.1

• With Simply Eggs on 26.2, bird eggs work in its recipes and unlock them in the recipe book.
• Lighter item models in campfires, item frames and inventories, with the same textures and sizes.

1.0.0

• First release: seven peaceful birds (speckled quail, mallard, meadow goose, blue macaw, peacock, penguin and snowy owl), each with its own model, sounds, habitats, eggs and meat.
• Fabric and Forge for Minecraft Java 26.2 and 26.3.
