Special Nametags Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I use special nametags on mobs?
Use a nametag on a mob (by holding it and interacting with the mob) and give it one of the special names from the mod's feature list. The effect will apply immediately once the name is set.
Can I remove a special name effect from a mob?
Yes, use the opposite nametag (for example, use "unfreeze" to undo "freeze", or "vulnerable" to undo "invulnerable"). For custom names, use the "noname" nametag to remove the name entirely.
Does the onfire effect actually damage mobs?
No, the "onfire" effect is purely visual and will not harm the mob or cause any damage over time.
Can I make a baby mob grow into an adult?
Yes, use the "adult" nametag on a baby mob to make it grow up. You can also use "baby" on an adult mob to make it become a baby.
What happens if I freeze a mob with the freeze nametag?
The mob will become completely stationary like a statue—it won't move, won't attack, and you won't be able to hit it. Use "unfreeze" to restore normal behavior.
Can I stop Piglins from turning into Zombified Piglins in the Overworld?
Yes, use the "nozombification" nametag on Piglins or Hoglins to prevent them from zombifying in the Overworld. Use "zombification" to restore the normal behavior.
How do I make a flying mob that ignores gravity?
Use the "gravityoff" nametag on any mob to disable gravity, allowing it to float or fly freely. Use "gravityon" to restore normal gravity.
Can I make a mob completely silent?
Yes, use the "silent" nametag to remove all sounds from a mob. Use "noisy" to restore normal sound behavior.
What's the difference between invulnerable and freeze?
"Invulnerable" makes a mob immune to damage but it can still move and act normally, while "freeze" completely disables the mob's AI so it can't move or be harmed.
Can I use multiple special nametags on the same mob?
No, a mob can only have one nametag at a time, so applying a new nametag will replace the previous effect.
