Troubleshoot Floral Creepers Appearing as Vanilla Creepers

Common Causes

Missing dependency mods: The most common issue is that Entity Model Features (EMF) or Entity Texture Features (ETF) are not installed or not enabled. Verify both mods are present in your mods folder and active in your mod loader.

Resource pack not loaded: Check that the Floral Creeper Resource Pack is in your Selected resource packs list, not the Available list. Reload your world after moving it.

Mod conflicts: Other mods that modify Creeper models or textures may override the resource pack. Try disabling conflicting mods temporarily to test.

Verification Steps

1. Confirm EMF and ETF are installed and loaded

2. Restart Minecraft completely

3. Check the resource pack order — Floral Creeper should be above conflicting packs

4. Spawn a new Creeper and observe its appearance

5. If still vanilla, check mod loader logs for errors related to entity rendering

Last Resort

Delete and reinstall both the resource pack and dependency mods. Ensure you're using compatible versions of EMF and ETF for your Minecraft version.
