Mighty Steeds

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.21–1.21.1 · Data pack⬇ Download for 1.21–1.21.1 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21–1.21.1 · Forge⬇ Download for 1.21–1.21.1 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21–1.21.1 · Quilt
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.

Don't you just hate how weak horses are in vanilla? Here is your solution!

Image is inaccurate by 2 damage (21), I was just too lazy to re-do it :sob:

New Mechanics

Goat Horn Charge

When right clicking a goat horn, your horse will dash forward, granting both of you useful buffs! Charge Ability

Buffs

All horses now have an additional 10 hearts.

All horses now move 10% faster in water.

Horses will no longer sink when in water.

Mining while on a horse is now closer to normal mining speed. Horse Swimming Example

Recipe Changes!

Saddles, name tags, leads, Tridents, and all horse armor can now be crafted!

Name Tag Recipe Iron Horse Armor Recipe Diamond Horse Armor Recipe Saddle Recipe Golden Horse Armor Recipe Trident Recipe

Recommendations

I recommend pairing this datapack with similar mods, such as Horseman!

Warnings for Server Owners

PLEASE make sure that you do /reload after adding this pack, or else things may break! (Yes, even if you added the pack and then restarted the server, for some reason it is weird like that)

This pack is balanced around players being in max enchanted gear, but if that is not the case then I recommend editing the damage values provided from "Jousting", as it's damage is balanced around Sharpness V Netherite!

Planned features:

Port all new buffs to Mules, Donkeys, and Skeleton horses.

Message "avaasusual." on Discord to report any issues please!
