Ever needed a ton of leather but you only have a sheep, pig, and/or zombie farm? How about a villager trading hall with an absurd amount of butchers? Well your in luck! This mod makes leather drop from sheep and pigs, makes it to where if you smelt rotten flesh you get leather, and adds a butcher trade for leather!
Originally this was just a personal mod for my modded survival world, but I thought I'd might as well release it for other people to use.
Update 1.1:
Added a recipe for the smoker.
Added a trade for the butcher villager.
Update 1.2:
Makes pigs drop leather.
