About this Mod
Tired of having chests overflowing with Rotten Flesh while you struggle to find enough cows for your enchanting setup? This lightweight, vanilla-plus utility solves that problem by introducing a logical tanning process to Minecraft.
This project allows players to recycle mob drops into high-value materials, making it an essential addition to any survival world or modpack focused on realism and resource management.
✨ Features
- Simple Integration: No new items or complex machines. It fits seamlessly into the vanilla gameplay loop.
- Modpack Friendly: Works perfectly alongside other mods; if you have a mod that adds "Dried Kelp" or "Jerky," this fills the same niche for leather.
🛠️ How to Use
- Collect Rotten Flesh from zombies or husks.
- Place the flesh into crafting table
- Retrieve your Leather and get crafting!
Note: This is a server-side compatible utility. If running as a datapack, it does not need to be installed by joining players!
