Snowy Shepherd House Fix

Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Data pack only.

Minecraft 1.21–1.21.8Newest
Minecraft 1.20.3–1.20.4

⬇ Download for 1.21–1.21.8 ⬇ Download for 1.20.3–1.20.4

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.

This data pack simply brings a fix to MC-170550, a bug in which the sheperd's house in snowy villages never generate at all, due to a typo in one of the jigsaw configurations within the file.

For a bit of proof that the fix works:

Create a snowy plains buffet world with the seed -3230519642001848764
Teleport to 580 ~ 328. With the data pack, the shepherd house should generate there. The comparison is shown below.
