Small Fabric mod to drop player heads upon player death – or get them via a command – that’s compatible with Bedrock players joined through Geyser, or other mods changing the skin while in-game; e.g. FabricTailor.
\nUnlike a datapack, this will drop a head that will keep the skin you are currently playing with!<\/p>\n
**Requires FabricAPI!**
\nBecause of https:\/\/bugs.mojang.com\/browse\/MC-174496, it is recommended to use a mod like https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/headfix to keep custom head names when breaking the head.<\/p>\n
Floodgate for Bedrock support is optional, but necessary if you’re using a prefix other than “.”. <\/p>\n
**Current features:**
\n– drops a playerhead upon player death
\n– will display (and keep displaying) the skin used at the time of death!
\n– if killed by player: adds “killed by [player]” in the lore of the item – or anything else; fully customizable!
\n– optional “\/getskull” command – you can get heads for Java and Bedrock players. For the latter, it will work as long as they have a skin uploaded to the GeyserAPI (done automatically when they join any Geyser+floodgate server)
\n– option to disable floodgate prefixes showing in the head names<\/p>\n
“`\/getskull bedrock .onebeastofchris“` <- gets you the Bedrock head of onebeastofchris. You don't have to add the prefix! \n\n```\/getskull jeb_``` <- gets you the Java player's head of jeb_\n\nThis command is optional, and is disabled by default in the config file. You can restrict access to it by changing the CommandPermissionLevel. 2 is the default - 0 is everyone, 4 is only OP's.\n\n\n**Config file options**\n- \"ShowLore\": whether the heads should show who killed them in the lore. True by default.\n- \"DropNonPlayerKillHeads\": Should this mod drop heads when the player died by a non-player death? True by default.\n- \"CommandEnabled\": Whether \/getskull is usable. false by default.\n- \"CommandPermissionLevel\": Which permission level is needed to use the command. 2 by default. Set 0 for everyone, or 4 for only OPs.\n- \"Debug\": Whether debug mode is on. Off by default.\n- \"IncludeFloodgatePrefixInNames\": Should bedrock player names have their prefix included? Applies to head names, heads gotten via \/getskull bedrock, and the lore tag.\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
