Metal Wolf Solid: Wolf Armor & Stand
by LOREal Mods
Metal Wolf Solid adds metal armor tiers for wolves, from leather to netherite, plus a wolf armor stand that displays the gear.
What it does
Wolves can be dressed in separate mws armor items for leather, iron, copper, gold, diamond and netherite, each applied by right-clicking with the item. Crafting follows the material progression, so early leather armor can be upgraded as a player advances. The armor is shown on the wolf body in the same way vanilla wolf armor is, and the vanilla minecraft:wolf armor items keep working unchanged alongside them.
A Wolf Armor Stand can be placed in the world to display a wolf outfit, similar to how a vanilla armor stand shows a player's gear. Punching it twice breaks it and drops the stand along with its equipped armor, and the wolf sways when hit, animated through GeckoLib. The mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it, and it requires Fabric API and Geckolib. It is published for Fabric only, in the 1.21 – 26.3 range, and the code is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 or later.
Key features
Six armor tiers
Leather, iron, copper, gold, diamond and netherite wolf armor, each with its own item and texture.
Wolf Armor Stand
A placeable stand that shows wolf armor on a display wolf, useful for showcasing outfits in a base.
Equip and remove
Right-clicking with the armor equips it, and using an empty hand removes it from the wolf.
Separate from vanilla
The mws items are kept apart from minecraft:wolf armor, so existing vanilla armor is not changed.
