Rot-to-Hide

by StateBros · on Modrinth

Players can transform rotten flesh into leather by smelting it in a furnace, smoker, standard campfire or soul campfire.

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 1.20–1.20.1 · Data pack⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · Forge
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.

Rot-to-Hide

Transform your surplus of zombie remains into a valuable crafting resource with Rot-to-Hide. This mod introduces a balanced way to recycle rotten flesh by allowing you to "cure" it using various heat sources. For a quick turnaround, you can use a furnace or smoker, or you can opt for a fuel-efficient approach by laying the flesh across the embers of a campfire or soul campfire to dry it into usable leather.

Key Features

The Smoker’s Advantage: Use a smoker to double the speed of the curing process, perfect for large-scale leather production.

Campfire Curing: Save your coal and wood by placing up to four pieces of flesh on a standard or soul campfire for a slow, natural dry.

Balanced Gameplay: Provides a much-needed utility for one of the game's most common "junk" items without breaking the early-game economy.
