Alex S Mobs Unofficial Port FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I start playing with Alex's Mobs?
Create a new world and the mod mobs will spawn naturally in their appropriate biomes. Open the Animal Dictionary (crafted like a regular book) to see which creatures live where and what they eat or drop.
What's the Animal Dictionary and how do I use it?
It's a guide book that shows information about every mob in the mod, including their biome, behavior, and drops. Craft it early and refer to it whenever you encounter a new creature to learn how to interact with it.
How do I tame a Grizzly Bear?
Grizzly Bears require a specific food item to tame—check the Animal Dictionary for the exact food they prefer. Once tamed, they'll follow you and help defend against hostile mobs.
Can I breed mobs like Bison to make a herd?
Yes, most passive mobs including Bison can be bred by feeding them their preferred food item. Two fed mobs will produce a baby, allowing you to build large herds for farming or aesthetics.
Do these mobs drop useful resources?
Yes, different mobs drop different materials—some give hide, bones, or unique items used in crafting. The Animal Dictionary lists what each mob drops so you can hunt strategically.
Will this mod work with my other mods?
Alex's Mobs is generally compatible with most mods, but conflicts can happen with mods that heavily modify mob spawning or biomes. If you experience issues, check if disabling other mods resolves them.
Why are some mobs not spawning in my world?
Mobs only spawn in their specific biomes and at appropriate light levels—a Grizzly won't appear in a desert. Make sure you're exploring the right biome type, and check that your spawn rates aren't set too low in mod settings.
Can I turn off certain mobs if they're annoying?
Most mod loaders allow you to disable individual mobs through the mod's config file. Check your mod folder's configuration settings to disable specific creatures.
Do these mobs affect game performance?
Adding 85+ mobs will increase performance load compared to vanilla, but most modern computers handle it fine. If you experience lag, try reducing your render distance or disabling some mobs through config settings.
How do I get special items that mobs drop?
Hunt the specific mobs listed in the Animal Dictionary as dropping those items, or breed them in captivity for steady resource generation. Some items may only drop under certain conditions, so read the Dictionary entry carefully.
