Beasts of Vale: Mounts & Creatures
by Sho310
Beasts of Vale: Mounts & Creatures adds rideable animals to the Minecraft world, with four unique mounts for players who want mobility in RPG-style adventures.
What it does
Players tame and ride animals across the world, and each mount has its own strengths and special movement abilities that fit the medieval fantasy theme of Vale. Rideable mounts take a saddle, and each one carries its own inventory, working like a chest. The mounts share base features, so the differences come from their abilities rather than separate systems.
The release introduces two distinct mounts, and the Chocobo and Giant Frog are transformations that players trigger by feeding certain items to animals. Mounts come in three biome-based variants: desert-type areas, snowy areas and plains forests each have their own version. The mod is a modular RPG expansion that can be used on its own, and the mounts are meant to suit different playstyles.
Installation needs Fabric only. Beasts of Vale runs on client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. It is published for Fabric alone, for one game version, 1.21.4, and the latest file is 0.1.3 for 1.21.4 on the beta channel.
