Distinct Paintings
by ACGaming
Distinct Paintings lets each painting item on a Forge 1.12.2 world carry its own named variant, so players can pick a specific motive instead of a random one.
What it does
The mod splits the painting item into distinct variants stored in NBT tags. Each variant corresponds to a motive from the game's painting list, and the new item iterates over those motives to register its sub-item variants. Paintings are therefore handled as separate items, which also means loot and other methods that depend on NBT can distinguish them. Distinct Paintings requires MixinBooter, and JSON Paintings is supported as an optional dependency for custom painting sets. Both the server and every player need the mod, since it is a client and server mod.

Motives added through a JSON Paintings instance are picked up, so custom paintings also receive distinct variants.
