laowu meme

A Minecraft meme mod about cats! When a cat named Laowu (老吴) gets close to any other cat, they lock eyes, bump heads with mirrored head-tilts, arch their backs, grow bigger, and a random BGM starts playing. Right-click either cat to break it up and they walk away naturally. Works in singleplayer and multiplayer — the server is authoritative, so every player sees the exact same thing.

Features

Maodie Cat (multi-block structure)

There's a second feature: Maodie Cat (耄耋). Build a wall structure from any wood-type blocks (oak, spruce, birch, jungle, acacia, dark oak, cherry, mangrove, warped, etc. — mixing is fine), and a nearby cat named Maodie will be summoned to sit on its seat. While seated, the cat hisses on loop when a player is within 5 blocks and turns its head to track the nearest player. Breaking the structure releases it.

How it works

Building the structure

This is a "cat house wall": lay a 6-wide (x:0–5) × 6-tall (y:0–5) vertical face on the ground, all blocks on the same z layer (1 block thick). Any wood-type blocks work (planks / stairs / trapdoors / slabs); different wood types can be mixed.

Elevation view (y top-to-bottom, x left-to-right; origin [0,0,0] is the bottom-left ground block):

y\x    0     1     2     3     4     5
 5    [ ]   [ ]   [T]   [T]   [ ]   [ ]
 4    [ ]   [S]   [T]   [S]   [S]   [ ]
 3    [T]   [T]   [ ]   [S]   [ ]   [T]
 2    [T]   [L]   [S]   [ ]   [T]   [T]
 1    [ ]   [S]   [T]   [S]   [S]   [ ]   ← anchor stair at x=4,y=1 (cat sits on top)
 0    [ ]   [T]   [P]   [P]   [T]   [ ]

Legend: S=stairs T=trapdoor P=planks L=slab [ ]=air (empty)

Block list (23 blocks total, relative to origin [0,0,0]):

Coords (x,y,z) Block Key state
1,0,0 Trapdoor bottom half, open
2,0,0 Planks
3,0,0 Planks
4,0,0 Trapdoor bottom half, open
1,1,0 Stairs top half, straight
2,1,0 Trapdoor top half, closed
3,1,0 Stairs top half, straight
4,1,0 Stairs top half, straight (anchor / cat seat)
0,2,0 Trapdoor top half, open
1,2,0 Slab top half
2,2,0 Stairs top half, straight
4,2,0 Trapdoor bottom half, open
5,2,0 Trapdoor top half, open
0,3,0 Trapdoor bottom half, open
1,3,0 Trapdoor bottom half, open
3,3,0 Stairs bottom half, straight
5,3,0 Trapdoor top half, open
1,4,0 Stairs bottom half, straight
2,4,0 Trapdoor bottom half, closed
3,4,0 Stairs bottom half, straight
4,4,0 Stairs bottom half, straight
2,5,0 Trapdoor bottom half, closed
3,5,0 Trapdoor bottom half, closed

Any wood type: planks/stairs/trapdoors/slabs can be replaced with any wood variant (oak, spruce, birch, jungle, acacia, dark oak, cherry, etc.), mixed freely across positions. The mod only checks block type (a stair is a stair), not the wood species.

Lazy setup: the repo includes a Litematica schematic docs/耄耋的家.litematic — load it with the Litematica mod to place the whole structure in one go. (A black candle at [3,2,0] in the schematic is optional; the mod doesn't check it.)

Rules & tips

Server-authoritative architecture

On multiplayer servers, the server must have this mod installed (all logic runs server-side); clients need it too for the head-tilt / size boost / hiss / music rendering. In singleplayer, one copy covers both sides automatically.

Audio

Built-in audio

The audio files (laowu2.ogg / qiliang.ogg) are not bundled in the repo — put them in src/main/resources/assets/laowu_meme/sounds/ if building from source. Must be Ogg Vorbis (MC only supports ogg); convert mp3 with ffmpeg:

ffmpeg -i input.mp3 -c:a libvorbis -q:a 4 -ar 44100 -ac 1 output.ogg

Imported audio (hot-swap at runtime)

Open the mod's config screen in-game (press Escape or via the Mods menu after triggering a meme), click "Open audio folder" to open config/laowu_meme/sounds/. Drop .ogg files in there, reopen the config screen to see and enable them — they'll join the built-in audio pool for random playback. No restart or F3+T needed.
