Butch - Mob Drops Reimagined
by Clouds18709
Butch - Mob Drops Reimagined changes what certain mobs leave behind, turning many kills into carcasses that have to be processed for items.
What it does
With Butch installed, a list of mobs drops a carcass instead of their usual loot. The mobs covered include cows, horses, sheep, squids and glow squids, pigs, rabbits, goats, chickens, llamas and turtles, and several of these are less commonly used in other mods. A dropped carcass goes into a Butcher Block, where a Butcher's Blade in the blade slot works on it. Once butched, it reveals up to four drop slots, and the amount is semi-random, with most kills giving at least one item and some giving up to six.
The mod also adds new items meant to be used in useful ways. Cow tallow can be turned into candles and torches, and a bowl crafted from turtle scute and glue holds the turtle stew that the mod adds. Butch runs on NeoForge and is set to Client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. Files are published for 1.21.1 with the latest build, 1.0.0, dated 2024-09-24, and the mod is licensed as All rights reserved.
