StalkerWolf — Updates 2.4.0 through 2.7.0

Since 2.3.2, StalkerWolf has gained a custom guide, new psychological horror systems, playable wolf transformations and more lore to discover.

• 2.4.0 — The Book of Shadows: Replaced Minecraft’s standard book screen with a custom illustrated field guide. Added seven categories, global search, wolf previews, live crafting recipes, related pages, reading bookmarks and automatic pagination. Existing books and discoveries remain compatible.

• 2.5.0 — The woods learn: Added sound mimicry, sleep-driven terror, false retreats and evidence of stalking. Misleading footsteps, door sounds and familiar wolf noises can make you question your surroundings. Missed sleep brings stronger nighttime fog and terror. Hunters can leave pawprints and claw marks, remember successful defenses, and change their approaches based on your hiding places and escapes. The book gained private observations, reactive ink and ten additional lore fragments. New server settings and client comfort controls let you adjust these systems.

• 2.6.0 — Become the hunter: Added the craftable Heart of the Hunt, bound through a nighttime Shrine Altar ritual. Transform into Stalker Wolf or Hollowfang for 30 minutes, followed by a 45-minute cooldown. Forms include animated bodies, matching hitboxes and eye heights, first-person paws, increased attributes, pouncing and scent howls. Hollowfang also gains rage and shadow stepping. Added configurable controls, an ability HUD, advancements, transformation lore and OP testing commands.

• 2.7.0 — Knowledge must be earned: Information about items and wolves now unlocks through crafting, material discoveries and encounter advancements. Unknown pages conceal their names, descriptions, recipes and previews, including their text in search results. Expanded the book with more discoverable entries and lore. Carried equipment and previous crafting records help returning players reveal familiar items. Operators can use /stalkerwolf unlock @s to reveal all guide information for testing.

Requirements: Minecraft Java 1.21.1, NeoForge, Java 21, and compatible GeckoLib 4.9.x. Use matching mod versions on multiplayer clients and servers.
