Description

Effigies

Effigies is a mod that adds powerful mob spawning prevention options to the game.

Version Support

Effigies supports multiple Minecraft versions and mod loaders:

Loader Minecraft Versions
Fabric 1.21.11+
NeoForge 1.21.11+

Features

  • Adds 7 new Pikes (one for each spear variant) that prevent specific mob types from spawning within a radius based on their tier
    • Refer to the Pike Table below for specifics about the radius and recipes
    • Pikes also have item tooltips in-game describing their range
    • Radius' can now also be customized via the config/effigies-config.toml file
      • You can disable Pikes from preventing spawns by setting the radius to -1
      • Any config options will also update the in-game tooltips
  • Place a Pike block in the world, then right-click it with a mob head (or place the mob head on top of it) to activate it
    • When active, the Pike will prevent that mob type from spawning within its area of effect
      • Fire particles spawn when it becomes active!
      • Fire particles will also spawn whenever the Pike successfully prevents a mob spawn
      • Smoke particles spawn when it becomes inactive (the head is removed)
    • Supported mob heads by default: Skeleton, Wither Skeleton, Zombie, Creeper, and Piglin
      • Completely configurable via the config/effigies-config.toml file
      • Supports vanilla definitions, such as minecraft:sand=minecraft:zombie to make sand prevent zombie spawns
      • Also supports modded definitions, such as ecologics:coconut_planks=ecologics:penguin to make coconut planks prevent penguin spawns
      • Also supports multiple references, so adding both minecraft:sand=minecraft:zombie and minecraft:zombie_head=minecraft:zombie would mean either sand or a zombie head would work as intended!
      • Does NOT support a single block preventing spawns of multiple mobs, so having minecraft:sand=minecraft:zombie and on the next line having minecraft:sand=minecraft:skeleton would make sand ONLY prevent skeletons
      • Any blocks that are defined as Pike Heads (sand or coconut planks from the above examples) will be automatically scaled to the size of a mob head when placed on a pike, to make sure that any custom blocks looks decent on the Pike
      • Invalid blocks (ones not in the config file) that are placed on top will not be downscaled
    • When the player looks at an activated Pike, the mob it is currently preventing will hover on top of the Pike
  • Shift+Right-Click an activated Pike to remove the head (the head will drop as an item)
  • Breaking a Pike will drop both the Pike block and the head (if activated)
  • Pikes work in all dimensions (Overworld, Nether, End, and modded dimensions)
  • Also adds a new Anti-Spear which has slightly higher damage than Netherite and the same attack speed as Diamond
  • The Anti-Spear can also be used to craft the Anti-Pike which acts as a powerful mob spawner for whatever mob head is placed on it
  • Adds a convenient Grimoire which lists all the crafting recipes, radius of the Pikes, and valid mob heads

Pike Table

Tier Default Area of Effect
Wooden 1 Chunk (the chunk it's in)
Stone 1 Chunk + 1 Radius (the chunk it's in + all 8 surrounding chunks)
Copper 1 Chunk + 2 Radius
Iron 1 Chunk + 4 Radius
Golden 1 Chunk + 6 Radius
Diamond 1 Chunk + 8 Radius
Netherite 1 Chunk + 16 Radius

Recipes

Tier Recipe Upgrade Recipe
Wooden 1 Wooden Spear + 2 Sticks N/A
Stone 1 Stone Spear + 2 Sticks 1 Cobblestone + 1 Wooden Pike + 1 Stick
Copper 1 Copper Spear + 2 Sticks 1 Copper Ingot + 1 Stone Pike + 1 Stick
Iron 1 Iron Spear + 2 Sticks 1 Iron Ingot + 1 Copper Pike + 1 Stick
Golden 1 Golden Spear + 2 Sticks 1 Gold Ingot + 1 Iron Pike + 1 Stick
Diamond 1 Diamond Spear + 2 Sticks 1 Diamond + 1 Golden Pike + 1 Stick
Netherite 1 Netherite Spear + 2 Sticks Smithing Table: 1 Netherite Upgrade + 1 Diamond Pike + 1 Netherite Ingot
Anti-Spear 1 Nether Star + 1 Netherite Spear + 1 Dragon Breath N/A
Anti-Pike 1 Anti-Spear + 2 Breeze Rods 1 Netherite Pike + 2 Breeze Rods + 1 Nether Star + 1 Dragon Breath
Grimoire (Guide Book) 4 Blackstone + 4 Gilded Blackstone + 1 Book N/A

Notes

  • Each Pike only prevents the spawn of the mob type matching the head placed on it
  • Multiple Pikes with different heads can be used to prevent multiple mob types from spawning within the radius
  • Pikes are efficient even in large numbers - they use an optimized chunk-based lookup system
  • When connecting to a server, the server will send it's config to the player, meaning the tooltips will update accurately and the player's own config file won't be modified or used
  • Supports JEI 27.4.0.15 or Newer!
