About this project

What does Mutant Creatures Legacy add?

MUTANT CREATURES LEGACY

Mutant Creatures Legacy is a fork of Mutant Beasts by Chumbanotz, which is a port of the original Mutant Creatures mod by shcott21/thehippomaster21. This fork aims to fix issues in the original 1.12.2 port and introduce new quality of life features along with tweaks to enhance the overall experience, such as new config options! Full Thaumcraft aspect support is also included.

You can read all the information about the mod in the original forum post here. In short, the mod introduces Chemical X that can be thrown at certain vanilla mobs to turn them into tough boss fights with special rewards for beating them. There's also an enhanced snow golem to construct and a spider pig to tame!

NOTE: To obtain Chemical X, either brew an End Crystal or any drop from any of the mutant creatures alongside a Thick Potion.

What's Configurable?

Since we have primarily focussed on making modpack maker's lives easier, check out the default config file here.

Q&A

Q: Will this be ported or backported to x version?

A: See our stance in 'Other Versions' below.

Q: Will you add new mutants?

A: While there were talks about adding a mutant spider as a long-term goal. The primary focus for the time being are quality of life tweaks and fixes to issues.

Other Versions

NOTICE: There are no plans from our side to port or backport this fork as it's exclusively developed for 1.12.2, but there are other community ports you can use instead:

  • For 1.18.2 and above, you can check out the ports by Fuzs here.
  • For 1.14.4 to 1.16.5, you can check out the ports by Chumbanotz here.
