The Legend of Herobrine 1.12.2 - 1.15.2
Warning! This mod is in early access, so it may not work as intended, and current features are not final, be prepared for many bugs!
This mod aims to add many features related to Herobrine to Minecraft, without straying too far from the vanilla feel, but also not being afraid to take it's own creative twists on many things. Summon Herobrine in your world, and prepare for a new adventure. Herobrine is waiting.

Programmer Art Style Resource Pack 1.15.2
Programmer Art Style Resource Pack 1.14.4
Dive into a world of Mystery!
Shrine Required for Summoning Herobrine.
Important Update:
I bet everyone is wondering when the next update is and why it's taken so long to port to 1.16. It's been over a month since 0.5.2 was released and there are still many easy to fix known bus that have been reported, so what gives?
I've just been very busy recently with school and work, which is causing a great deal of stress for me, but the bigger issue is that I've just been struggling with mental health issues recently and have not had the motivation to keep up on development. I am unable to sit down for long periods of time and keep development going and it's been a while since I last even opened my IDE. I am not currently seeking out professional help because I believe I can deal with this on my own. I am unsure when the next update will be and I have no idea when the 1.16 release will happen, but I will still check this page every day and try to respond to comments and provide support when needed, and also keep the GitHub issue tracker up to date. I hope I can get this all resolved soon and get development back again, but if I start pressuring myself to get a release out I will not be able to make this mod up to the quality that I want and and expect from myself. Sorry if this seems like an excuse for being lazy, but I am currently going through a lot right now.

Can you kill Herobrine?
In reply to SharkieFPS:
Any instance of Herobrine can be killed. To remove herobrine from your world you must activate an altar with a purified diamond obtained by trading with Survivors.
In reply to AlexMacLean:
After killing him does he just come back until I decide to remove him?
In reply to SharkieFPS:
Yes, Herobrine will keep spawning until you decide to remove him, even if you kill him.
Hey! Let me first start off by saying I love your mod very much! It's exactly what I'm looking for! A mod that adds his presence into the game, but doesnt make him some annoying boss you have to fight! Thank you so much! Anyways, I have a question about the configurations: Does increasing spawn weight increase the chance of that entity spawning? or does it decrease it? I'm kinda confused by that because i set the spy herobrine at 1K spawn weight but i still see more builders than spies
In reply to iron_helmet8:
A higher spawn weight makes the mob have a higher chance of being spawned over other mobs when the game runs a spawn cycle for hostile monsters. So a higher spawn weight will make a mob more common.
Yo Alex when this mod is patched and finished, what do you plan after making this creepypasta mod
In reply to nbtedittool:
what do I mean when I say what do you plan after this I mean like are you going to make another mod or resource pack, herobrine world etc
In reply to nbtedittool:
After this mod reaches it's 1.0 release I'll still update it to future versions of the game and add more content too. I also will probably start development on other mods for Minecraft, but I'm not completely sure what those will be yet
Really love this mod great work, but I have a question. When the mod is (hopefully) eventually updated to 1.16, will the cursed diamond gear be buffed to further outdo netherite or will you keep it weaker than netherite? I feel with the introduction of netherite, cursed diamond may need to be either rebalanced or have a different obtainment method as I feel it makes no sense to keep cursed diamond as a little bit better than diamond, at least with it's current way of obtaining it. You would rather just keep using diamond instead because you can further upgrade it to netherite which seems to just be better than grinding and wasting all that time on cursed diamond. This is just an idea but I feel like it wouldn't be worth to get cursed diamond anymore until you make it more powerful and maybe somehow integrate netherite or its scraps to obtain it. Idk i just feel like the balancing may be an issue after transferring to the 1.16 update.
In reply to ConqAra:
Thanks for the input. I was considering making a cursed netherite set of armor and tools for the 1.16 update, but I need to get the existing features working for 1.16 first, which has been a bit tricky and I've had almost no time to develop this mod due to reasons stated in the important update in the description. I am debating whether I should derive the texture for the set of tools and armor from the vanilla textures or derive it from a remake of Philza's netherite pack. I also am considering removing the purified diamond from the survivor trade menu and integrating it into the smithing table for 1.16, and maybe add it to the crafting table for 1.15 and below. I don't have an estimated time for the 1.16 release yet, but it will most likely be out before the middle of December.
In reply to AlexMacLean:
mmm, perhaps taking advantage of the new forge system for upgrading diamond to netherite could also help you bring up some ideas with cursed weaponry/armor. Either way I'll be looking forward to what you have in store for us, thank you for providing somewhat of an idea on the release date for the new update as well.
1.16
i cant do the spawner, help is needed
Nice work on the mod, I've always been looking for one that tried to implement Herobrine in this way!
Do you think it would be possible to implement a way to change the Survivors' skins? Right now they simply source them from the default player skins of the currently used texture pack, but I thought it would be cool if there was a way for players to diversify Survivors, perhaps by importing skins of their choosing into a specified folder in the mod .jar file, so that Survivors could appear with many different skins, similar to villagers of the MCA mod
In reply to suceey:
That's not a bad idea. I was actually considering making survivors use a texture that is located in the mod's resources directory, but it's still the default Alex and Steve so resource packs can change it simply by modifying the survivor textures, but a system to add custom skins to them through addons would be a very interesting concept. I'll experiment with ways I could get that working. With the way I implemented Survivors as separate entities for Steve and Alex it may take some time, but I could add an entity for custom survivors that is disabled by default, but enabled when an addon enables custom survivors.
In reply to AlexMacLean:
oh, nice!
1.16.3 pls
In reply to ldkfonsh:
