DatapacksJava
Scutes from kills
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Features:
- Scute Drops: Armadillos and turtles now drop scutes upon death.
- Balanced Drop Rates: The drop probability matches that of shulker shells, maintaining game balance.
- Looting Compatibility: Works with looting like that of shulker shells.
