Understanding Mob Compatibility and Sheep Behavior

Supported Creatures and Monsters

Dye Mob Dye Mod allows you to recolor almost every animal and monster in the game using normal dye items. Whether you are working with common farm animals like pigs and cows, companions like cats, or hostile monsters, holding a dye and right-clicking the target creature applies the new color.

The Sheep Exception

While the mod extends dyeing to nearly the entire mob roster, sheep are specifically excluded from this mod's custom system:

  • Standard Vanilla Behavior: Sheep do not use the mod's recoloring code because they already have native color-changing mechanics in the base game.
  • No Mod Overrides: Sheep retain their original vanilla mechanics when interacted with and cannot be modified by the mod's custom dyeing features.

For every other supported creature, the mod bypasses standard mob limitations, allowing you to apply any standard dye directly to creatures that are normally locked to a single texture.
