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.

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.

The Western Bounties mod adds a simple bounty system, providing additional challenge and reward to your gameplay. If you choose to get a bounty, you may begin to have better luck with mining and loot.

While the rewards may be tempting, committing crimes will also cause the price on your head to go up, and you'll have to start worrying about bounty hunter attacks.
The mod was created with singleplayer in mind, however multiplayer is also supported and has some special functionality which can be enabled and customized in the config.

The mod contains many configurable elements to tune it to your liking, and is usable in English and Spanish, as well as Brasilian Portuguese and German (which may contain mistakes).

It is still in development, so more features + fixes are likely in the works. I'm open to criticism as well as suggestions for features or translations.

I would appreciate reports of any bugs found.
