Overview
This is a collection of small patches for cosmetic changes or optimizations that don't add new content and therefore don't need a thread on their own.
All patches here don't have any dependencies, should work with most other mods and require the usual minecraft.jar editing process.
Pincushion Fix
This patch brings back the sticky arrow feature on mobs that was removed since Minecraft 1.9-pre. The time to put arrows into your foe's knees has come again!
Some mobs have upscaled or complex models. In order to avoid huge or misplaced arrows, these mobs won't show sticky arrows:
- Ender Dragons
- Slimes and Magma Cubes
- Ghasts
- Giants
It should work with all other mobs and animals, even from mods.
