Alex's Mobs - Naturalist Compat
by Kanadeyoru
Alex's Mobs - Naturalist Compat removes duplicate Naturalist mobs and items so that Alex's Mobs and Naturalist can run together in one modpack.
What it does
The compat mod removes six Naturalist mobs that overlap with Alex's Mobs: the rhino, alligator, catfish, elephant, rattlesnake and brown bear. It also removes the alligator egg, bear fur, raw catfish, cooked catfish and bucket of catfish items. Anything that depended on a removed entry is redirected to the matching Alex's Mobs entry, so existing references keep working.
Recipes are adjusted as well. The Naturalist Teddy Bear is now crafted from Alex's Mobs Bear Fur instead of the removed Naturalist bear fur. Naturalist and Alex's Mobs are both required dependencies, and the compat mod is published for Forge only, on 1.18.2, 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, with 1.3.0 for 1.20.1 as the latest file, released 2025-08-22. Installation covers the server and each player's game.

What the author says
The goal of these compat mods I'm making is to make mods work better together in modpacks by removing duplicate items, mobs, and blocks. It ensures that anything dependent on the removed items, mobs and blocks still works by redirecting those dependencies to the remaining equivalent items, mobs and blocks. ## List of…
