About this project

What does Cursed Breeding add?

Cursed Breeding

Cursed Breeding adds a strange new breeding mechanic to Minecraft. Use special items to breed with supported mobs and create cursed offspring that inherit parts of your skin.

The offspring keep their special appearance after growing up and after the world is reloaded. Normal vanilla breeding remains unchanged.


How It Works

  1. Use a supported breeding item on a mob.
  2. Consume the matching item yourself to receive a temporary breeding effect.
  3. A nearby compatible mob approaches you and cursed offspring are created.

The required items can also be consumed when your hunger bar is full. Pink hearts indicate cursed breeding effects.


Supported Mobs

  • Sheep
  • Cows
  • Pigs
  • Villagers
  • Wither Skeletons
  • Mooshrooms
  • Slimes
  • Magma Cubes
  • Creepers
  • Cats
  • Wardens

Player Breeding

Two players can use an Egg to create a small child with a mixed skin. The child inherits one player's head and the other player's body, follows the player whose head it inherited, and can help defend its owner.


Commands

Use /cursedbreedingeating on/off to control eating for breeding items.

With command permissions, use /cursedbreeding spawn <mob> [player] or /cursedbreeding spawnadult <mob> [player] to spawn a cursed mob. Omit [player] to use your own face. /cursedbreeding spawnall baby and /cursedbreeding spawnall adult spawn the supported group; an optional player name can be added.


Compatibility

Available for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. Choose the download matching your Minecraft version and mod loader. Fabric requires Fabric API.
