Topic category: Help with Minecraft modding (Java Edition)
I came up with this idea for a mod after watching the 'Wolf Man' 2025 remake, although I despise the werewolf design in that film, it got me inspired. This is my first time with MCreator, so all help is appreciated.
Now, for how this entity will function:
There will be one entity, maybe? It can infect villagers, and that entity is called the Wolf Man, obviously. It will not immediately attack the player, it will stalk them for days, and will do its best to stay out of the players field of view and watch them from a distance—hiding behind trees, terrain, structures, etc. Although, the player will catch glimpses and hear noises (twigs snapping, shuffling, leaves rustling, growls, howling)
The entity will become more aggressive as many days pass. The Wolf Man can break down doors, climb ladders, and trees. It will have a sneak mechanic, where the player won't even realize its there.
As for the infection, 'Hills Fever' when infected, the villager will morph into something monstrous. For the player, they will die and a new Wolf Man entity with their skin will spawn.
Is this impossible with MCreator?
Of course it is possible! Some of this stuff is pretty hard to do, but definitely possible, for the "Wolf man will get your skin" thing you would need to create an alternate texture for it and change it with model layers, etc. For the infecting of villagers you can create custom villager-like entities for when one gets infected. The only issues you will encounter are: You need to install the "Nerdy's Geckolib Plugin" plugin for animations and stuff and the hiding behind terrain thing is really really hard to pull off, i'm not sure if that's possible
