Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.20–1.21. File opened and checked on 5 Oct 2026; downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
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 mod adds an animation to Golem Altars (both Snow Golems and Iron Golems) just after they've been built, to replace the regular boring instant spawn.
Want a Copper Golem spawn animation? Download the Copper Golem Addon! Works with both vanilla Minecraft and the Friends&Foes mod!
