How to Craft Blueprints and Egg Templates

Every survival-crafted mob spawn egg requires a base template. Creating templates is a two-step crafting process that combines standard paper with modded materials.

Crafting Standard Blueprints

To begin designing an egg, craft a standard blueprint using basic crafting stations:

1. Harvest sugar cane to craft vanilla paper, and mine bluestone underground.

2. Combine paper and bluestone in a crafting grid to produce a standard blueprint item.

3. If you need a reminder of the exact pattern layout, consult the in-game guide book.

Making the Spawn Egg Template

Once you possess a standard blueprint, you must prepare it to hold creature essence:

1. Gather ordinary chicken eggs from vanilla chickens.

2. Open a crafting grid and combine your crafted standard blueprint with a regular chicken egg.

3. Retrieve the resulting spawn egg template.

Keep the completed template stored nearby; you will combine it with a processed mob soul later to complete the summoning egg.
