Bovines and Buttercups

Bovines and Buttercups is mod made with the goal of reimagining the Moobloom mob as featured in Minecraft Earth and especially in the 2020 Minecraft Mob Vote!

This mod features:

• 🌻 Thirteen diverse variants of Mooblooms!
  • In the Flower Forest biome you may naturally come across the classic Buttercup Moobloom as well as the Pink Daisy Moolip!
  • Each variant introduced comes with their own new flower entirely unique to them!
• 🍲 A new drinkable item: Nectar! This can be obtained by milking any Moobloom with a bowl, like a Mooshroom! These come in different variations based on which variant of Moobloom gets milked!
  • When you drink Nectar, it applies a Lockdown for the related status effect, allowing you to either freeze the duration if you already have it or renders you immune if you don't.
• 🏡 Biome-dependent Ranch structures will now appear throughout your world! Bring any Mooblooms you find to these ranches to learn what sorts of environments allow you to discover the other variants! Can you find them all?
• 🐝 Mooblooms are great friends with Bees! The Moobloom may lay down and allow a Bee to pollinate its flowers and bring a special kind of Nectar back to the hive, if any amount of this Nectar is delivered to the Beehive, you'll be able to collect a bottle of Perfected Honey! (Or more Honeycomb than usual)
• 👑 Weave together a collection of Moobloom specific flowers to create a decorative Flower Crown!
• 🧁 Craft Cupcakes primarily from Nectar, or if you're more of the savory type, Mushroom Tarts made primarily from Mushroom or Suspicious Stew.
• 🎨 Mooblooms and Mooshrooms have been given a slight redesign in this mod. (These elements can be disabled with the use of the built-in resource packs!)
• 🖥️ Extensive datapack support to allow anyone to add new types of Mooblooms, Mooshrooms and Cows.

Greenhouse Mob Vote Collection

This mod is part of the Greenhouse Mob Vote Collection. We plan on making every mob vote mob as a mod and to add additional content to the mob vote mobs that got in.

The other released mods within this collection are:

• Rapscallions and Rockhoppers

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there vanilla flower Mooblooms?

No. This is a deliberate design choice to encourage discovering new content through Mooblooms.

The original Buttercup was a flower unique to the Moobloom in Minecraft Earth. We wanted to follow this philosophy for all Mooblooms present by default.

The flower crown also only supports Moobloom flowers, to have it more scoped within the mod's content.

I would suggest either making a Bovines and Buttercups data pack or downloading one of the other various Moobloom mods out there if this really matters to you.

How do I get Moobloom types that don't naturally spawn?

A baby Moobloom's type is decided by the parents surroundings upon birth. You will know whether this works if colored petal particles come from the blocks that caused it.

You may look at a Moobloom's associated ranch to get an idea of what is required for them to spawn. You are also guaranteed the Moobloom type if you breed a combination based Moobloom inside its ranch, provided you don't break any blocks.

If two or more Mooblooms are eligible to spawn with the above criteria in mind, it is left up to random chance to decide which type succeeds.

Every Moobloom Combination

Backport 2.0.0 to 1.20.1/Forge?

Due to important updates in both Minecraft and modloaders' codebases, Minecraft 1.20.1 and before or MinecraftForge are not things I am interested in supporting.

🐮 Bovines

Mooblooms have been given a new fresh look in this mod, along with their distant cousins the Mooshroom!
(A Built-In Resource Pack can revert their designs to Mojang's original designs)

You can find the familiar Buttercup and Pink Daisy Mooblooms spawning naturally in Flower Forest biomes! Every other variant can be discovered by breeding Mooblooms within environments that contain specific blocks.

The new Ranch structures will contain appropriate environments for specific Moobloom variants to be born in. These Ranches are biome-dependant as well, so search far and wide to find the ideal conditions for each Moobloom!

We have chosen not to implement Vanilla flower Moobloom variants in the mod by default to keep the original philosophy with the original 2020 Moobloom and Moolip introducing new flower types.

🌻 Buttercups

A variety of new decorative flowers are made available with giving Mooblooms bone meal!

You may use any combination of these new colourful flowers to create a fashionable Flower Crown! These can be any combination of colours depending on the flowers used in the recipe!

🍲 Nectar & Cupcakes/Tarts

A new drinkable item that can be obtained by milking any Moobloom with a bowl just like a Mooshroom! Upon drinking a bowl of Nectar, it will cause a Lockdown effect which will pause the timer or prevent the affliction of a specific potion effect depending on which Moobloom variant the Nectar came from!

Nectar can be used to create placeable Cupcakes that also grant the Lockdown effect upon being interacted with!

In addition, Mushroom and Suspicious Stews can be used to create placeable Mushroom Tarts, another new food source that may grant potion effects if Suspicious Stew is used as an ingredient!

🐝 Blossomed Friendship

When a Bee approaches a Moobloom, the Moobloom will gently lay down and allow the Bee to pollenate its flowers, and when that pollen is taken to a Beehive, the honey produced will become Rich Honey, which grants Saturation upon consumption! (Alternatively, it will grant more Honeycomb than usual)
