Credits

Thank you to WorldWidePixel for creating the mod's custom lightning conversion sounds.

A generic conversion sound is available for any entity without a specified sound or as a basis for custom conversion sounds.

 

License

Variant Lib is licensed under the MPL-2.0 license.

All mob conversion sounds are licensed under the CC0-1.0 license.

 

For Players

Chances are you won't need to download this mod because any modders will have included it in their JAR file.

If for some reason, the developer doesn't do this, if you wish to use its features using a datapack, or if you wish to play with a Fabric exclusive mod through Sinytra Connector. You may download the mod.

 

For Developers

To start developing with Variant Lib from a data pack or as a developer, you should use the Documentation as a guide.

If you are developing a mod with Variant Lib integration, the mod has javadocs within most house.greenhouse.variantlib.api contained classes.

You may additionally reach out through Discord or Matrix for support from either other developers using the mod, or a developer of the mod.
