Cobbleloots: Loot Balls and More!

Cobbleloots is an addon for Cobblemon that introduces various ways to obtain items inspired by the original Pokémon game series.

Important Information

Please note: This modification replaces my previous addon "Cobblemon: Loot Balls", but is not compatible with the old loot balls from the previous version. It is recommended to create a backup of items from existing worlds.

IMPORTANT: Alpha versions of the mod may contain bugs and unfinished features. Use them at your own risk. If you encounter any issues, report them in the GitHub repository or on the Discord server.

IMPORTANT (ALPHA-2.0.7+): Recent updates have introduced critical changes, especially in the loot ball data format. You will need to update your data packs and configurations to ensure compatibility.

Main Features

Loot Balls 💎

Based on my previous work on the "Cobblemon: Loot Balls" mod, these balls contain useful items for the player. When opened, they can provide experience and various items, and can also be used as decorative objects in survival mode. When a loot ball runs out of uses, it can be destroyed to drop as a decorative item (this behavior is configurable).

Obtaining Loot Balls (in development)

• Generation: Loot balls can be found in the world. Some are specific to certain biomes, while others are more common.
• Spawning: Over time, loot balls appear in the world around random players.

Map Making 🗺️

Check out the documentation to learn how to use the mod's objects and features in your custom maps. If you have any remaining questions, feel free to ask them on the Discord server.

Custom Loot Balls 🎁

Create your own loot balls with various items and properties using the new data system. You can customize:

• Name displayed in the game
• Loot table used when opening
• Texture of the loot ball
• Amount of experience received by the player
• Player-specific timers (cooldown) before reopening
• Sources of loot ball appearance with detailed filters

Mod Configuration ⚙️

Many mod features can be configured in the configuration file located in the config/cobbleloots folder of your Minecraft instance under the name cobbleloots.yaml. Key configurable aspects include default loot ball properties, drop behavior in survival mode, and disabling loot balls in specific dimensions.

Planned Features

Other Sources 🎣

Additional ways to obtain loot balls in survival mode, such as fishing and archaeology.

Commands 🛠️

Commands to assist map creators and server owners in managing mod features.

Hidden Items 🔍

Inspired by the original Pokémon games, hidden items are invisible objects scattered throughout the world waiting to be discovered.

Fake Items 🪤

Be careful: some objects may not be what they appear to be. Pokémon sometimes disguise themselves as items to trick you.

Finding the Old Mod (Loot Balls)

If you're looking for the old mod, files and documentation can still be found in the GitHub repository for Loot Balls. Note that the old mod is only compatible with Cobblemon 1.5.x versions and is no longer supported.
