Sky Whales

by dacite

Sky Whales adds rare neutral whales that drift high above oceans, and their remains can be harvested for lift-giving blocks.

What it does

The mod adds flying whales that stay high above ocean biomes. Whales are neutral, but if a player gets too close they strike back with a sonic blast, so the encounter is a single real fight. A whale that dies leaves a floating skeleton, and harvesting its bones, meat and physics blocks yields materials that tie into Create. Sky Whales requires Create, Geckolib and Sable, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files target NeoForge for 1.21.1 only, under the BSD 3-Clause License, and the mod is not open source.

Key features

  1. Rare flying whales

    Neutral whales spawn rarely, drifting in the sky above the oceans.

    A dead whale leaves a floating skeleton, and its bones, meat and physics blocks can be harvested.

  3. Lift from whale parts

    Corpse harvesting gives blocks that provide lift, a new way to gather materials for airship builds.

What the author says

Sky Whales adds rare whales that drift high above the oceans. They keep to themselves, but get too close and they'll hit back with a sonic blast, so hunting one is a real fight. When a whale dies it leaves a floating skeleton you can harvest. The bones and meat are physics blocks that tie into the Create: Aeronautics…
