MCA Reborn x Easy Villagers Compat
by Seleris
MCA x EV Compat lets Easy Villagers pick up and place MCA Reborn villagers, keeping each one's identity intact instead of turning it into a plain vanilla villager.
What it does
When a player picks up an MCA Reborn villager with Easy Villagers, the addon restores the original MCA villager rather than converting it into a vanilla one. The villager's look, name, gender, personality, genetics, family ties and job carry through the pickup, and the restore step aims to stop a villager from being copied.
Items stored in Easy Villagers blocks show the real MCA villager name, and MCA villagers can be rendered in the inventory, hotbar and GUI of the supported blocks, including the Breeder, which produces MCA babies when both parents are MCA villagers. Both MCA Reborn and Easy Villagers are required, and each must be installed separately.
The addon is an unofficial compatibility layer between Minecraft Comes Alive and Easy Villagers, and it does not redistribute either mod. The server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with 2.0.0 for 1.21.1 on the beta channel as the latest NeoForge build. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. Backing up the world first is the safer route when villagers are already stored inside Easy Villagers blocks.
