Overview

This datapack brings the feeling of Peaceful Mode without removing the possibility of completing the game.

Most hostile mobs are prevented from spawning, creating a calmer survival experience while still allowing players to progress through all major milestones, including defeating the Ender Dragon.

Better Peaceful is perfect for players who enjoy building, exploring, and surviving without constantly fighting hostile creatures.

Features

  • Removes most hostile mobs from the game.
  • Keeps important progression mobs alive.
  • Allows players to access Blaze Rods and Ender Pearls.
  • Supports defeating the Ender Dragon.
  • Fully configurable mob blacklist.
  • Multiplayer-friendly.
  • Lightweight and easy to install.

Whitelisted Hostile Mobs

The following hostile mobs are not removed:

minecraft:blaze
minecraft:enderman
minecraft:ender_dragon
minecraft:wither
minecraft:warden

Customizing the Mob Blacklist

To remove or add mobs to the blacklist, open:

Better-Peaceful-1-0-0.zip\data\betterpeaceful\tags\entity_type\banned.json

You can then:

  • Add mob IDs to blacklist them.
  • Remove mob IDs to allow them to spawn.

⚠️ Important

This datapack is not designed for worlds with the difficulty set to Peaceful.

Instead, it should be used on Easy, Normal, or Hard difficulty. The datapack only removes hostile mobs that are not necessary for completing the game.

Installation

  1. Download the datapack.
  2. Move the .zip file into your world's datapacks folder.
  3. Run /reload or restart the world/server.
  4. Enjoy a more relaxed Minecraft experience.

Have Fun!

Thank you for downloading Better Peaceful. I hope you enjoy a calmer Minecraft adventure while still being able to experience the ender fight.
