realistic drops

Realistic Drops changes which items mobs leave behind, so creepers can drop grass, TNT and bones from skeletons.

ForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.20.1

What it does

The mod rewrites the loot tables of several vanilla mobs. Creepers can drop grass and TNT, skeletons can drop bones in larger numbers, and endermen can drop both eyes. Zombies are changed as well, and more than five mobs in total have their drops reworked.

Installation needs only Forge for 1.20.1, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The latest Forge file, 1.0.1, was published on 2025-10-31. The code is released as All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Creeper drops

    Creepers can leave grass or TNT behind when they die, changing what a player picks up after a fight.

  2. Skeleton bone counts

    Skeletons drop a larger number of bones, so bone stacks build up faster from skeleton kills.

  3. Enderman eyes

    Endermen drop both of their eyes, giving a second source of ender eyes from each kill.
