Ageing Mobs

by ShyNieke

Ageing Mobs lets mobs in a world age over time, with certain mobs changing into a different form once they reach a set condition.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.12.2 – 26.2

What it does

Mobs age by default once the mod is installed, and the transformations are configurable. Some mobs change into a related form under chosen conditions, such as a creeper becoming a charged creeper, a zombie becoming a husk or a baby zombie, and a villager becoming a vindicator that later evolves into an evoker. Guardians can become elder guardians, and endermites can change into shulkers.

The mod runs on Forge and NeoForge, and it is installed on both the server and every player's client, since the environment is client and server. The optional CraftTweaker and Game Stages dependencies extend the setup for pack makers. Transformations that occur only in the Nether are also included. Builds cover 1.12.2 – 26.2 across 17 release versions, with the latest NeoForge file for 26.2 and the latest Forge file for 1.20.1.

Key features

  1. Age-based mob transformations

    Mobs change into related forms as they age, including creepers, zombies and villagers.

  2. Condition-based changes

    Transformations can require specific conditions to be met before a mob changes form.

  3. Nether-only transformations

    Some mob transformations happen only in the Nether, adding a dimension-specific twist.

  4. Configurable aging

    Mobs age by default, and which mobs transform can be adjusted through the mod's settings.
