Baby Model Rewind

by ar_tyyuu

Baby Model Rewind restores the scaled-down adult models that baby mobs used before the 26.1 Tiny Takeover update gave them unique proportions.

What it does

Starting with the 26.1 update, vanilla baby mobs received a model with new proportions from the Tiny Takeover change. Baby Model Rewind reverts that: ageable baby mobs render with the adult model at half scale again, with adult textures mapped correctly. The mod covers the vanilla baby mobs, from farm animals and hostile mobs to piglins, villagers, striders and hoglins.

The mod runs on the client only, so players install it and servers do not need it. It requires Fabric Loader and is published for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt. Files cover 26.1 – 26.2, with 26.2 as the latest version. The mod is released under the MIT License but is not open source. Shader packs and most other rendering mods are reported to work alongside it.

Key features

  1. Baby mobs with adult models

    Ageable baby mobs are drawn with the adult model scaled to half size instead of the redesigned baby model.

  2. Broad vanilla coverage

    The rendering change applies to animals, hostile mobs, piglins, villagers and striders in the vanilla game.

  3. Correct adult textures

    Adult textures are applied through the adult model's UV mapping, so baby mobs keep the expected skins.

What the author says

The 26.1 Tiny Takeover update gave every baby mob a unique model with new proportions. This mod reverts that — baby mobs are rendered as scaled-down adult models again, exactly like they were before 26.1.
