Mob head to Player head
by MOFx
Mob head to Player head lets a player turn a zombie head, dragon head or carved pumpkin into a head that shows a chosen username, using a signed Book and Quill.
What it does
Crafting a Book and Quill gives the player a written book. The player opens it, types the exact username of the player head to create in the Book Title field, clicks Sign and Close, then throws the signed book onto a mob head on the ground. The datapack converts that head into a Player Head bearing the name provided. Mob heads that the datapack handles include zombie, dragon and carved pumpkin heads.
The mod is a datapack, so it reaches servers without any code in the loader's mod list. Server owners add it to their world data, and the conversion runs on the server. Files exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, plus a data pack build, across 1.21 – 1.21.10, with 1.3.0+mod for 1.21.10 as the latest file on every loader. The server requires the mod, while players may add it for the client side, and the project is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
