Vanilla Mob Variants

Taking inspiration from Optifine's random alternate mob textures, this resource pack brings aprox. 800 variations per mob, for over 45 mobs in the game! This is done using a combination of alternate textures, entity tinting, and model scaling to make mobs with even the same texture look slightly unique. This pack will continue to be updated with more mobs and textures as long as people show interest in it!

To reduce the amount of times the mcpedl team needs to review the changes, this mcpedl page will only be updated for major updates. For more minor updates, news, and feedback, check out our discord: https://discord.gg/UbjD9ny

Changelog

This will be the last update for a while, since the pack really needs to be remade to make use of all the new features available in 1.17. 
In this update:
- Fixed compatibility with new mobs added by addons
- Baby cow geometry should be fixed
- Added two named variants, "Dave" the cod and "Koi" the salmon
- All named variants now use Capital first letters (full list of names on discord)
- Added one last round of community textures

Known Issues:
- Using this pack with older, outdated packs from before 1.16 will cause some mobs to render wrong (eg: zombie pigmen are invisible)

Thank you to everyone who has supported this pack. I hope you all continue to enjoy it until it is remade!

Wish that breeding the mobs would produce the same tint and colour of one of the parents like passing genetics on.

This is just a texture, this is impossible

been a while since you've been here but, I'll comment anyway. I love this pack but I cant figure out what I'm doing wrong when it comes to adding my custom textures. I hope you some how see this and can help.

Hello Creator, what did you do to make the mobs have random textures? I wanted to add textures to an Addon Mob.

Can I use this addon in My addon-pack (mod-pack)??

Hi i really like it but please. The 1.18.10 update gave iron_golem a crack like Java! Please add them in the iron texture pack or just remove all the iron_golem texture but not the real one. thanks :)

I will update, keep an eye on my account

I would like the iron golem to have only one skin of my interest and the rest to be variant

I want to use the John Smith legacy texture pack but all mobs are invisible when using it for whatever reason, so, hopefully, this or something similar, should fix the issue. Hopefully... So here goes nothing.

Hi sorry to bother you but I’ve been looking for a texture pack were the inside of blocks is invisible so you can see through them but the outside is nothing is this possible and if so would you be interested in making it?

May I use some of your code in my texture pack? I would like to use some of the mob texture variation code and useing yours for testing will make this much easyer, I'll make sure to give credit for everything I use.
