READ BEFORE USING

This resource pack works for the latest minecraft version and below down to version 1.19.2.

At the moment the following mobs are affected:

Endermen
Skeletons
Creepers
Witches
Spiders

This resource pack adds the following standout features:

Note:
Option 1 is HIGHLY recommended for the best experience.
Option 2 also works, but the resource pack may not fully function as intended ; you will experience bugs (missing model/texture variations, missing animations, etc.). Use this option as a last resort only!

TEXT VERSION OF THE DESCRIPTION IN SPOILER

DISMEMBERMENT
If you deal enough damage to a mob before it dies, there's a chance that its limbs might fall off.

REANIMATED
Mobs have been fully reanimated - Animations for idling, walking, attacks and death are more realistic than before. Baby zombies are turned into crawling zombies.

MIMIC CREEPERS
Some creepers camouflage themselves by taking the shape of other mobs. Disguised creepers show subtle signs that can give away their disguise.

FLYING WITCHES
Witches jump on their broom when they have low HP. They then fly away when killed.

DANGLING SPIDERS
Spiders climb walls by dangling from the ceiling. Spiders can lose their legs and dynamically adjust their way of walking.

RANDOMIZED DEATHS
Mob death animations are randomized to make every kill unique.
