Vanilla Mob Remover
by giggity2990
Vanilla Mob Remover stops vanilla mobs from spawning in a Forge world, with separate control over passive, hostile and Illager mobs.
What it does
Once installed, the mod prevents vanilla mobs from appearing in the world. Its settings separate passive animals, hostile monsters and Illagers, so each group can be kept out on its own. The mod changes the mob spawning rules through a game rule set to false, which keeps the effect in place for the whole world.
Installation is needed on both the client and the server, since both sides run the mod. Vanilla Mob Remover is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, and is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Blocks vanilla mob spawns
Vanilla mobs are stopped from spawning, so the world is populated only by what the player brings in.
Passive, hostile and Illager groups
Passive animals, hostile monsters and Illagers can each be excluded, instead of removing all mobs at once.
Game rule based
The effect is applied through a game rule, so the spawn rules stay changed for the world.
