A mod that aims to add extinct creatures from different areas of history, as well as items associated with them, all to add a bit of spice to your world.
⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe author built this one for Minecraft 1.19.2 on Forge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.
NOTE: I Cannot guarantee full functionality with all shaders as this version of Geckolib often doesn't display animations when certain shaders are enabled. However Complimentary Reimagined seems to work:
Download Complimentary Reimagined
Check crafting recipes and mob information in the Bygone Guide, a Patchouli guidebook item given to players upon entering the world. This is only available in the latest 2.0 release(s), and if lost it can be re-crafted with a dodo egg and a vanilla book in the crafting table.
Version 1.20.1 Early Beta is available now! Test out the argentavis and other weird mobs.
