About this Mod
Capybaras! They can be fed using tangerines to tame (doesnt do much but make them happy!) and you can use bark to breed them! Tangerines are a new food source you get from brutaling ending the existance of a capybara, providing slightly better nutrition than apples! Tangerines can also be equiped to your helmet slot by left clicking! Bark is gotten by stripping logs or wood, and can be placed back onto the log/wood, crafted back on, or crafted into sticks or paper!
If there are any bugs, or fetures you want to reach me about, the easiest way to get my attention will be to yell at me in my comment section: (Here - youtube.com/@PhoenixPlaysMC)
If you need help replicating any fetures of this mod, or developing your own using Mcreator, I am happy to help. Ive noticed theres a bit of a lack of information out there, just @ me from one of my videos :)
Known Issues: When equiping the Tangerine to your helmet slot, the previous slot item drops istead of being returned to inventory, I will fix this when the Mcreator fabric generator supports adding items directly to the player inventory.Also, the player must be looking at a block to equip it as a hat, another limitation of the fabric generator.
Upcoming features: Support for copper tools/1.21.9, adding rideability, saddling, random chance of tangerine on head instead of constant, 3d tangerine hat to mach the capybaras. Please note most of these features are currently not possible in the fabric generator for Mcreator and will occour when it is updated.
