Maple's Creeper Collection
by MapleMods
Maple's Creeper Collection changes creeper textures with the season, and players who want fixed skins can pin one in place.
What it does
Creepers in the world take on custom textures that switch automatically with the season. Seasons follow fixed date ranges: summer runs from 01-03 to 31-05, autumn from 01-06 to 31-08, winter from 01-09 to 30-11, and spring from 01-12 to 28-02. A command selects the northern or southern hemisphere, and the mod picks the matching calendar on its own when a server runs in the southern half of the year.
Creeper variations appear at random across the world, and a creeper keeps its skin after the world is reopened. Giving a creeper a name tag before a new season begins keeps that texture for the whole year. Holidays can be turned off so seasonal textures do not mix with holiday ones, and creepers outside those rules remain regular creepers. Sapling is required, so install it alongside this mod on every loader it runs on. The mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it for players to see the same textures.
Key features

Use cases
Keeping a favourite skin
A player who likes one texture can name a creeper before a season ends and keep it through the rest of the year.
Server-wide consistency
Server owners can adjust config values with commands so every player sees the same seasonal textures.
Who it’s for: Players who want seasonal variety in their creepers, and server owners who want to control which textures appear and when.
