AlphaMobs
by v2rus
AlphaMobs, a NeoForge mob mod by v2rus, adds new creatures, harmless animals and aggressive monsters to the game, and it runs on client and server.
What it does
The mod introduces a varied set of new creatures, some passive animals and some hostile monsters, that add new encounters to existing worlds. Its author describes the additions as new mobs that bring new things to Minecraft.
Alongside the creatures, the mod adds a separate region with its own terrain, flora and materials, new kinds of food with special effects, and tools and weapons. Combat and mob research are improved, and finished buildings and drawings can be created as a player's own projects. New crafts, achievements and events are part of the update set.
Installation needs NeoForge only. Because it runs on both sides, the server and every player need the mod. Files are published for 1.21.4 and 1.21.5, and the latest file is 0.6 for 1.21.4, released on 2025-04-21 on the beta channel. The code is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.

How it compares
No Aggressive Mobs is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.4 that works on client or server, with the client or server optional, and is not open source under All rights reserved, so it removes hostile behavior rather than adding mobs. Update Zol is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.8 that is also optional on the client or server, under All rights reserved. Virentia is client-side only under the MIT License and covers 1.21.1 – 1.21.8, which differs from AlphaMobs' client and server environment.
