Dead Body

!(https://i.imgur.com/P9lLRra.png) # Dead Body ## Supports **Minecraft 1.21+** **Version 26.1.2** **Real bodies. Real loot. Real consequences.** Built to work with (https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/death-smart-spectating-killcam-effects.133321/) for advanced spectating and death messages. Dead Body transforms Minecraft death into a persistent, physical gameplay event. Instead of items scattering across the ground, players and mobs leave behind fully lootable corpses with poses, models, nameplates, animations, and in-game configuration tools. Designed for modern Paper / Spigot 1.21+ servers with performance, reliability, and immersion in mind. ## Wiki <a href="https://blockarsenal.com/wiki/dead-body" style="display:inline-flex;align-items:center;gap:16px;padding:14px 22px;border:1px solid #ff4d4d;border-radius:12px;background:#120909;color:#ff6b6b;text-decoration:none;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;box-shadow:0 0 18px rgba(255,77,77,.32);"> <img src="https://blockarsenal.com/_next/image?url=%2Fbrand%2Fbaerror.png&w=96&q=90" alt="Block Arsenal" width="68" height="68" style="display:block;width:68px;height:68px;object-fit:contain;"> <span style="margin:0;font-size:28px;line-height:1.05;font-weight:900;letter-spacing:.6px;color:#ff6b6b;">FULL GUIDE &amp; WIKI</span> </a> !(https://i.imgur.com/6TIslyE.png) ## Features - **Lootable Corpses** — Items are captured at death and stored inside a corpse container. - **Multiple Render Modes** — ArmorStand, ItemDisplay, PlayerModel, and Mob model rendering. - **In-Game GUI Editor** — Configure behavior, visuals, permissions, and rules in-game. - **Pose Studio** — Create and preview custom corpse poses directly in the world. - **Death Cause Mapping** — Apply different poses depending on how an entity died. - **Animated Despawn** — Corpses can sink, spin, scale down, dissolve, jitter, or vanish. - **Mob Corpses** — Vanilla mobs can leave behind bodies. - **MythicMobs Support** — Whitelist or blacklist custom mobs. - **Combat Logging** — Optional logout-death handling for combat disconnects. - **Reliable Cleanup** — Safeguards prevent orphaned entities, displays, and containers. - **Smart Placement** — Corpses adjust to slabs, carpets, stairs, uneven terrain, and builds. !(https://i.imgur.com/BpdXu7a.png) ## Showcase ### ArmorStand !(https://s13.gifyu.com/images/bvC8u.gif) **A fallen player leaves behind a physical body that stores their inventory and can be looted by others.** ### Player Models !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/aa70c7252c7e04f16b7e7be705a1a7716a49f47c_0.webp) !(https://s13.gifyu.com/images/bvC84.gif) **Full player models rendered on the ground with armor, held items, and custom poses applied.** ### Display Models !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/079ab081c2c7582a2cb5761d39d4d237112635b8_0.webp) **Use resource-pack models to render custom corpse visuals with modern Display entities.** ### Mob Corpses !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/2652eadb6022d32d65a2e492aec93e7f9b2a88f4_0.webp) **Vanilla mobs, including zombies, villagers, animals, and bosses, can leave behind corpses.** ### MythicMobs !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/35180a12a216834405047aa54d6894109b0d17b9_0.webp) **Whitelist or blacklist specific Mythic mobs to avoid conflicts with other death systems.** ### GUI Editor !(https://s13.gifyu.com/images/bvC8R.gif) A comprehensive GUI lets administrators configure nearly every part of the plugin in-game. ### Pose Studio !(https://s13.gifyu.com/images/bvVu1.gif) Adjust translation, rotation, and scale for custom corpse models with real-time preview tools. ### Despawn !(https://s13.gifyu.com/images/bvC8l.gif) Corpses can disappear with cinematic animations like sinking, spinning, shrinking, or dissolving. ### Nameplates !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/36bc2765904e6e066ef644c35429d22b4421bf6a.png) Optional nameplates can show corpse ownership and a live despawn countdown. ### Death Poses !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/aa70c7252c7e04f16b7e7be705a1a7716a49f47c_0.webp) Configure different corpse poses depending on the cause of death. !(https://i.imgur.com/yyPHEc1.png) ## Config Dead Body gives server owners deep configuration control: - Select corpse render type: ArmorStand, ItemDisplay, or PlayerModel - Automatically scale corpses based on entity size - Define loot access permissions - Configure timed despawn or despawn-on-empty behavior - Customize nameplate style - Adjust corpse interaction hitboxes - Assign custom poses per death cause - Map Mythic mobs to special behaviors - Use GUI configuration or YAML editing !(https://i.imgur.com/bE1DWtO.png)
