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.

⬇ Download for 1.16.5–1.17.1 · Fabric ⬇ Download for 1.16.5 · 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.

Hello, Welcome to SimplyMob Origins, where it adds about 5 Origins to the game, Fox, Wolf, Piglin Rogue, Ghast, and Strider. I do plan on updating them and for all seem "mostly" balanced. you will need some dependencies as well. This is a port of my personal Origins Datapack into a forge/fabric mod.
