Lead & Lasso

Lead & Lasso turns the ordinary lead into a spinning, throwable 3D lasso.

How to use

Hold right-click while aiming into the air to spin it. Release after at least 0.4 seconds to throw. A short wind-up reaches about 5 blocks; holding for 2 seconds reaches up to 25 blocks. The loop follows a shallow arc and drops under gravity, so aim a little higher for distant animals.

Hit a mob that can be leashed to attach the lead. Miss, hit a wall, or reach the rope’s limit and the loop comes back to your hand. Survival mode uses one lead only when a catch succeeds. Creative mode uses none.

A rope that fits the game

The same thin brown rope appears in your hand, inventory, on the ground, in item frames, during a throw, and on attached mobs. Its color and thickness are based on the vanilla attached lead. First-person and third-person animation, either hand, and horseback throws are supported.

Ordinary right-click attachment to animals and fences still works. A lasso catch has extra leash length so a distant catch does not immediately break. Moving that lead to a fence returns it to the usual vanilla rules.

Installation

Choose the file for your exact Minecraft version and loader. Install on both the server and clients for multiplayer. Fabric builds require Fabric API. Do not install Fabric and NeoForge builds together.

The mod was previously developed as Cowboy Lasso. Its internal ID remains cowboy_lasso to keep existing saves compatible. No new crafting recipe or separate lasso item is added; use the regular lead. Other hand-animation mods and shader combinations have not been verified.

바닐라 끈을 들고 허공을 향해 우클릭을 누르면 회전하고, 놓으면 던집니다. 0.4초부터 던질 수 있고 2초까지 오래 돌릴수록 멀리 날아가며 최대거리는 25블록입니다. 포물선과 낙차가 있어 먼 몹을 노릴 때는 조금 위로 조준하세요.

묶을 수 있는 몹에 맞으면 연결되고, 빗나가거나 벽·바닥에 닿으면 손으로 돌아옵니다. 생존에서는 연결에 성공했을 때만 끈 1개를 사용합니다. 말을 타고 이동하면서도 사용할 수 있습니다. 멀티플레이는 서버와 클라이언트 양쪽에 설치하세요.
