About this Mod

Biome Sniffer

A small mod to make the Sniffer's texture change according to the biome they're in.

Showcase

Screenshot showing a Sniffer in a Savanna biome and a Sniffer in a Forest biome, each tinted to the respective biome's grass color

If installed only on the client, Sniffers will change their textures dynamically depending on what biome they're on.

If installed on the server, Sniffers will keep their texture according to the biome they spawned on. (Can be changed on the config)

Resource Pack Support

The mod dynamically changes the green parts of the Sniffer's texture, to the current biome's foliage hue. Any resource packs that keep the contrast between the green parts of the texture and the other parts, should work automatically.
