Many's Many Simple Scales
This is our unique approach to a player scaling system for the Origins mod, designed to be used with origin sets that don't inherently alter character scale. We recommend combining it with Origins Minus for optimal results. It also works excellently alongside the Halfdoors and Dramatic Doors mods.
Eight scaling options are available (including the default size) - ranging from tiny 0.25x (height 0.45 blocks) to impressive 1.55x (height 2.79 blocks).
Why This Mod?
After examining alternative solutions like Origins Player Scale and Tinkerer's Statures, we encountered the "Goldilocks problem." While Tinkerer's Statures offers good descriptions and minimal gameplay impact, and Origins Player Scale provides more variety, we decided to create something special.
Our goal was to develop a system that includes:
- Memorable size names (based on US volume measurements - from teaspoon to gallon, with the default size called "cup")
- Icons and descriptions that relate character sizes to in-game mobs
- A wide range of scales while maintaining gameplay balance
- Minimal impact on game mechanics (preserving standard movement speed, reach, and other parameters, though "gallon" sized characters automatically step up 1-block ledges)
- Detailed descriptions specifying character height in normal stance and while sneaking
Available Sizes:
- Teaspoon (0.25x, height 0.45 blocks)
- Tablespoon (0.5x, height 0.9 blocks)
- Ounce (0.65x, height 1.17 blocks)
- Gill (0.8x, height 1.44 blocks)
- Cup (default size)
- Pint (1.15x, height 2.07 blocks)
- Quart (1.33x, height 2.394 blocks)
- Gallon (1.55x, height 2.79 blocks)
