About this Mod

Makes it so mobs are able to pick up items all the time. (Only some monsters are capable of picking up items in vanilla)

Note

Don't expect many updates as there's not much you can add to a datapack like this. I will try my best to update it to newer versions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Greedy Mobs server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong datapack version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.10). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Greedy Mobs compatible with datapack and fabric and forge and neoforge and quilt?

Greedy Mobs officially supports datapack, fabric, forge, neoforge, quilt for Minecraft 1.21.10, 1.21.9, 1.21.8. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Greedy Mobs – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Greedy Mobs consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
