Tails Legacy

by EnderTurret

Tails Legacy is a fork of the Tails mod that adds tails, ears, muzzles, wings and other accessories to the player model, and is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge.

FabricForgeNeoForgeClient or server, optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.7.10 – 26.3

What it does

Accessories are equipped through the Tails Editor, which is reachable from the pause menu. Each part can be tinted in up to three colors, and a texture or subtype change can be applied to the equipped parts once the editor is closed. The editor has been partly redesigned, with subtype selection moved out of the part list and into a separate texture selector above it.

The fork brings the original mod forward to newer Minecraft versions and adds a large number of new parts, likely doubling the count of the original. Parts, subtypes, textures, attachment types and animations are data-driven, and the data format, the Tails library and the player data and config files have been overhauled, with older saves still upgraded automatically. Arrows stuck in a player can be rendered as an opt-in feature. Skin import and export were removed because they do not work with the new part system.

The mod requires Fabric API on every loader. It is open source under the MIT License, and public links exist for the source code and the issue tracker. Files target 1.7.10 – 26.3, with the latest builds for 26.3 on Fabric and NeoForge and 1.20.1 on Forge. Either side can run it, and neither needs it.

Key features

  1. Accessory parts

    Tails, ears, muzzles, wings and other accessories can be equipped to the player model and recolored.

  2. Three-color tints

    Each equipped part can be tinted in up to three colors, and the tints can change its texture or subtype.

  3. Pause menu editor

    The Tails Editor opens from the pause menu and lets players pick a part category and customize its parts.

  4. Data-driven parts

    Parts, subtypes, textures and animations are defined in data, which allows many new parts to be added.

Questions

Does Tails Legacy need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is required on every loader, so it must be installed next to Tails Legacy.

Can older Tails saves be used with Tails Legacy?

Yes. The data format and player data and config files have been overhauled, and older versions are still upgraded automatically.

Do players need the mod to join a server that runs it?

No. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so a server can run it without requiring it on the client.
