A resource pack for Minecraft 1.21.1 that gives real radar and world map icons to mobs that Xaero's Minimap would otherwise show as a plain dot.
It adds 241 sprites and 217 icon definitions for Xaero's Minimap (and Xaero's World Map, which draws the minimap's radar). Every sprite is pixel art in the same style as the icons of the common Xaero icon packs: one texture pixel per sprite pixel, a head or a whole small mob, with Xaero drawing the black outline itself.
The pack works with or without the mod Nytheria Xaero Icon Fix. They do not depend on each other, but they work well together: Icon Fix draws players on the radar correctly, this pack covers the mobs.
default falls back to the automatic icon for every texture it does not list,
and that fails for GeckoLib mobs.temperate_*), but Minecraft 1.21.1
with Vanilla Backport uses the old names. Saddled pigs and striders are not
listed at all.217 mobs in total.

spectator_vision (an
invisible camera helper) and Simply Swords' soulstalker_stride (a line-drawn
visual effect). They stay a dot.Xaero reads an icon definition file from only the highest resource pack that has it. It does not merge packs. Put Nytheria Xaero Icons at the top of your resource pack list, above every other Xaero icon pack (Icon Xaero's, Icon Fresh and similar). If it is lower, another pack's definition for the same mob replaces this one and the dot comes back.
A few definitions reuse sprites from two other icon packs instead of copying them. Those packs must stay enabled, below this one:
default entry, and the cheery, frowny and silly Pumpkin Warden
sprites.default entry.If one of these packs is missing, only those mobs are affected: their sprites cannot be found and they show as a dot again. Every other mob in the table above is self-contained.
Nytheria Xaero Icons.zip in your resourcepacks folder (or use
