(1.16.5) How to get JER to register my custom mob drops?
2 projects | /r/feedthebeast | 12 Sep 2022

I couldn't find a dedicated subserver for the Twilight Forest, so I'm posting this here; Hydra is missing head but hitboxes are still there. The Naga is suffering the same fate, but with a missing body instead of a head. I'm playing Valhelsia, and my pc is low-end. Any idea what's going on?
