About The mod

From The Ground Up is a mod that aims to revamp vanilla mobs from the ground up — giving them new sounds, visuals, mechanics and iterating on their original identity. Every new feature can be toggled on or off through the mod’s config.

Grounded Resource Pack

The mod comes with a bundled resource pack that has additional tweaks that work in tandem with the mod's vision, but may feel out of place with other mods or with some config options disabled.

Feature List

Endermen renamed to Warped
Ender Pearl retextured and renamed to Warping Pearl
Displacer retextured accordingly
Retextured Creeper and Enderman to match the new designs (this change was made in case other mods utilize the base texture so they don't feel as out of place)
Savage and Ravage creepie sprout retexture to fit with the new creeper
