DatapacksJava
Scalable Mobs
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 allows players to change the scale of most passive mobs.
To use the data pack, rename a name tag in an anvil to "scale_x", where x is a number between 0.1 and 3.0. The scale value may have a tenths digit of precision. Examples: "scale_1.5", "scale_0.3", "scale_2".
