flaying

Flaying replaces standard instant mob drops with physical carcasses that you need to butcher to get items and meat.

Features

• Carcasses: Mobs leave behind 3D bodies when killed instead of immediately popping into item drops.
• Butchering: Right-click a carcass with a sword or blade to butcher it. Required hits scale with the mob's size and health.
• Enchantment Support:
  • Looting
  • Fire Aspect
• Tag Support: Full support for item and entity type tag groups (e.g. #c:bosses, #minecraft:undead, #minecraft:swords).
• Decay: Carcasses rot and disappear after 5 minutes (configurable).
• Sound effects, blood particles, and swing cooldowns during butchering.

Compatibility

• Butchery

Configuration

Settings can be changed in flaying-common.toml:

• excludedMobs - Mobs or entity tags that won't leave carcasses (default: ["#c:bosses"], slimes, golems; supports tags like "#minecraft:undead").
• dynamicFlayHits - Scale required hits based on mob health (default: true).
• flayHitsRequired - Click count if dynamic hits are disabled (default: 3).
• decayTicks - Carcass decay time in ticks (default: 6000 / 5 mins).
