Nursery Refined Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

Do I need to install this mod on the server?
No, Nursery Refined is entirely client-side, so you can install it locally and see the improved baby mob textures on any multiplayer server without asking admins to add it.
Why do baby mobs still look wrong after installing the mod?
Make sure the mod is enabled in your mod loader and that you've fully restarted Minecraft. If you're on a server, try logging out and back in; sometimes texture caches need to refresh.
Does this mod change how baby mobs behave or spawn?
No, this mod only changes textures and appearance—baby mobs spawn, grow, and act exactly the same as vanilla.
Will this mod work with other texture packs?
Nursery Refined applies its own textures to baby mobs, so it may conflict with resource packs that also modify baby mob textures; you may need to choose one or the other depending on your setup.
Can I use this mod in single-player worlds?
Yes, the mod works perfectly in single-player and will improve baby mob textures there just as it does on multiplayer servers.
What baby mobs does this mod improve?
The mod updates passive animals (cows, pigs, sheep, wolves, cats, foxes and their biome variants), hostile mobs (baby zombies, husks, drowneds, piglins), and villagers (baby villagers and baby zombie villagers).
Does this mod affect performance?
No, since it only replaces textures on the client side without adding new blocks, entities, or complex logic, it has minimal to no impact on performance.
How do I know if the mod textures are actually loading?
Spawn or find a baby mob and look at its face—the eyes should be cleaner and less black/strange-looking compared to vanilla, and the overall skin details should appear smoother and cuter.
Can I disable the mod for specific mobs or biomes?
This mod applies its texture changes globally to all baby mobs; there is no built-in option to selectively disable it for certain mobs or biomes.
What Minecraft versions does this mod support?
Check the mod's official page for the list of supported versions, as compatibility varies depending on the mod loader and Minecraft version you're using.
