Spectrum Compat

# Spectrum Compat A compatibility mod that bridges (https://modrinth.com/mod/spectrum) with (https://modrinth.com/mod/the-aether), (https://modrinth.com/mod/deep-aether), (https://modrinth.com/mod/vanillabackport), (https://modrinth.com/mod/copperagebackport) and (https://modrinth.com/mod/better-archeology). ## How it works Heads are real registered block-items tagged into `#c:skulls`, plus per-mob loot-modifier and recipe entries that plug into Spectrum's existing systems. A small set of mixins covers the cases where data alone isn't enough. Every integration is gated by mod-loaded conditions, so any combination of optional mods works out of the box. Textures are referenced from the source mods' jars at runtime; this mod ships zero texture bytes (required by The Aether's license). ## Supported mods | Mod | What's added | | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | (https://modrinth.com/mod/the-aether) | 19 mob heads (incl. 3 Moa colours), anvil-crushing dye recipes for Aether flowers | | (https://modrinth.com/mod/deep-aether) | 11 mob heads (incl. 7 Quail variants), anvil-crushing dye recipes for DA flowers | | (https://modrinth.com/mod/vanillabackport) | Happy Ghast head, warm/cold Chicken/Cow/Pig heads (memory variant-lock), anvil-crushing dyes for VB flowers | | (https://modrinth.com/mod/copperagebackport) | 8 Copper Golem heads (4 oxidation × waxed/unwaxed), honeycomb wax recipes | | (https://modrinth.com/mod/better-archeology) | Enchanter recipes for `penetrating_strike`, `tunneling`, `soaring_winds`; disarming exclusive-set | Variant heads (Moa, Quail, Copper Golem, Chicken/Cow/Pig) are NBT-filtered, so the right variant drops from the right kill rather than rolling randomly. A few mobs are deliberately skipped because they're either unkillable upstream (Whirlwinds, Gentle Wind, Slider, Creaking) or practically unreachable in survival (Windflies — no biome spawner entries). Bosses are excluded by Spectrum's own `#c:bosses` blacklist chain. ## Requirements - Minecraft 1.21.1 - NeoForge 21.1.226+ - (https://modrinth.com/mod/spectrum) 1.11+ - Any combination of the optional source mods listed above ## Credits Based on (https://modrinth.com/mod/spectrum), (https://modrinth.com/mod/the-aether), (https://modrinth.com/mod/deep-aether), (https://modrinth.com/mod/vanillabackport), (https://modrinth.com/mod/copperagebackport) and (https://modrinth.com/mod/better-archeology). This mod is purely a compatibility layer; all gameplay systems and assets it hooks into are the work of those teams.
