Big overhauls and creature mods such as TerraFirmaCraft and Alex's Mobs add animals that the main Butchery mod does not know about. This data pack lets you connect them, so your processing setup also handles those creatures.
Decide Which Carcass Each Creature Should Drop
Each text file in the pack belongs to an animal, such as the chicken. A creature you add to a file drops that animal's carcass or corpse. Before editing, make a short list:
- Write down each modded creature you want to butcher.
- Next to each one, note the regular animal it is closest to. For example, a modded bird would go under chicken.
- Look up each creature's exact name with
/summontab-completion in a cheats-enabled world.
Add Them to the Pack
1. Close your world and open its save folder.
2. Back up the Butchery Add Mobs zip, then open it.
3. Open the text file for the first animal on your list and add the matching modded names, using the same format as the existing entries.
4. Repeat for each animal file you need.
5. Save every file, confirm the zip is updated, and close it.
6. Load the world and defeat one of each linked creature to check the drops.
The carcasses use the vanilla models and textures, so a modded animal's corpse will look like the vanilla animal's carcass. This is normal.
