Hoglin Cavalry│疣豬獸騎兵 lets piglins ride hoglins, so mounted hoglins appear in the game as ordinary mobs.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.5 – 1.21.11

What it does

Adult piglins can spawn mounted on hoglins in crimson forests and bastion remnants, with a 20% chance per spawn. Piglins can also ride hoglins that spawn in the world, and hoglin brutes are included in the set of mounts. The mod changes which mobs spawn together rather than adding new mob models, so existing textures and sounds stay as they are.

A companion addition called Mobs Autonomous Ride has installed adult piglins automatically mount adult hoglins. Hoglin Cavalry needs the server to run it, while players can join without installing anything. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and also as a data pack for server platforms.

Files cover 1.21.5 – 1.21.11 across six release versions, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest build. The code is open source under the MIT License, and public links exist for the source code and the issue tracker.
