Wild Creatures

🐾 Wild Creatures 2.1.0

This update comes straight from your feedback: animals can now be made non-hostile, a NeoForge crash is gone, and animal remains can be turned into hats. Thanks to everyone who reported things!

🎩 New: four hats made from animal remains

• Bear Fur Cap: bear fur and a bear claw.
• Feather Hat: owl feathers, duck feathers, an owl talon and leather.
• Antler Crown: deer antlers and gold ingots.
• Tooth Headband: crocodile teeth, a snake fang, string and leather.
• All four are worn in the head slot and are purely cosmetic, so they give no armor.

🕊️ New: choose how aggressive animals are

• The new option aggressionMode under general in config/wildcreatures.json has three settings.
• NORMAL (default): everything behaves as before.
• NEUTRAL: animals only fight back when you hit them first, and jellyfish no longer sting.
• PEACEFUL: animals never attack anything, and jellyfish no longer sting.
• Restart the game after changing it.

🔧 Fixed: NeoForge crash on Minecraft 26.3

• Entering or creating a world crashed with an AbstractMethodError in ModBiomeModifiers$ConfigSpawnsModifier on current NeoForge builds. The mod now starts normally on them.

✨ Changed: jellyfish and firefly glow

• Jellyfish, fireflies and firefly jars now draw their glow differently. This is meant to fix the rainbow and black streaks one player saw shooting into the sky around jellyfish.
• Applies to Minecraft 26.3, 26.2, 26.1.2 and 1.21.11. Versions 1.21.1 and 1.20.1 draw their glow another way and are unchanged.
• We could not reproduce the streaks ourselves. If you still see them, please tell us whether you use shaders or Iris/Sodium, and which shader pack.

📦 Good to know

• Install the mod on the server and on every client.
• Supported: Fabric, NeoForge and Forge for Minecraft 26.3, 26.2, 26.1.2, 1.21.11, 1.21.1 and 1.20.1.
• Your worlds and configs carry over. The new option is added with its default value.
