Guy's Better Leather Datapack | This datapack makes leather a little more useful and makes it easier to get. It also makes rotten flesh more useful as well, adding more value to zombie farms and general mob farms.

 

Features

  • Backports the saddle recipe from 1.21.6 to 1.20-1.21.1
  • You can now break down the saddle back into leather.
  • Makes rotten flesh able to be smelted into leather in a furnace.
  • Makes rotten flesh able to be cooked into leather on a campfire.

 

You will need a datapack loader mod such as Paxi or Openloader if you plan on using this in your modpack. More features for future versions soon...
