No Mob Farming Patched
by Tempest051
No Mob Farming Patched is a Forge fork of Mob Farming that stops mobs from dropping loot unless a player's pet kills them directly.
What it does
Mob drops are disabled for every entity except the player, so a farm that kills mobs with traps or fire yields no loot. A pet that lands the killing blow still produces the normal drop, which keeps pet hunting useful. The fork is credited to Laike Endaril's original mod, and Dan-WinDanesz helped clean up some code.
The mod allows a list of tameable mobs, and the fork extends that list so more pets can continue hunting. Sophisticated Wolves and Cats are listed as requirements for the fork's later builds. The author recommends the fork over the original and notes that anyone may use it in a modpack. For vanilla wolves, the 1.0.0 build is the one to pick.
The mod is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.12.2, with the 1.0.0 file dated 2023-08-30. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The license is a custom one, and the code is not open source, though public source code and an issue tracker are linked.
Key features
Loot blocked for farms
Mobs killed by anything other than a player's pet do not drop items or experience.
Pet kills still drop loot
A tamed animal that delivers the final blow keeps the normal drop, so pet hunting still pays off.
Expanded pet list
The allowed list of tameable mobs is extended, letting more pets take part in hunting.
Annoyances patched
Behavior from the original Mob Farming that the author found annoying is changed in this fork.

How it compares
Better Pet Teleporting is server-side only, open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and covers 1.12.2, so it is a different kind of pet mod. Mob Friendly Fire is client and server, released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license, and targets 1.20.1, which is outside this mod's version. Farming XP is server-side only with All rights reserved and 1.20.1 files, and it does not cover loot blocking for pets.

What the author says
No Mob Farming Patched is a mod that's pretty self explanatory. It prevents mob farming by disabling mob drops unless the player or their pet kills the mob (directly. This means if the final damaged point is by fire or fall damage, no drops). This is a fork of the mod "*No Mob Farming*" by Laike_Endaril which patches…
