Update 1.8.3: Localization Update

Updated the latest Russian localization provided by MaxMobile-ru.

Added diet compatibility adaptations for some mods.

Update 1.8.1: Exclusive trinkets and tools has been added!

This version includes mechanic reworks for some weak forms, along with the introduction of form-exclusive trinkets and tools to enrich gameplay experience.

  1. Form Mechanic Changes

    1. Familiar Fox Form

      Hunger can now be restored normally through food (though with reduced efficiency)

      Additionally, an extra mana resource bar has been added for casting form abilities. The mana drain ability is now used to replenish the mana resource bar.

      Fire Arrow: Consumes a small amount of mana, uses sticks to launch fire arrows that ignite enemies. Can craft the advanced Fire Charm Paper item. Consuming a Fire Charm Paper allows launching a more powerful fireball.

      Flame Ring: Consumes more mana, press the ability key to cast a ring of fire that ignites and damages nearby targets.

      When mana decreases, you will receive negative effects. At the permanent stage, when mana reaches zero, you will take continuous damage.

    2. Bat Form

      The permanent stage's clinging and hanging mechanics have been enhanced: the jump when leaving cling state is strengthened, allowing you to gain height through clinging.

      Additionally, its survivability has been enhanced through exclusive trinkets and items.

    3. Axolotl Form

      Weakened the max health bonus when wet, and the Wave-riding state now slowly consumes wetness.

    4. Ocelot Form

      Can now automatically hiss to drive away Phantoms.

  2. Mechanism Optimizations:

    Added an option to toggle whether to randomly play animal noises…and a bind to actively play animal noises.

    For Ocelot Form, added a bind to toggle sneak edge protection to optimize feel.

    Some forms' entity glowing effects will now be hidden when F1 is enabled, making it easier to take screenshots.

    Reduced movement speed and damage of wild Jackal Wraith.

  3. Exclusive trinkets and Tools

    Please see the mod wiki page.

  4. Bug Fixes

    Fixed a bug where jumping on a bed during transformation animation would launch you into the air.

Description

Update 1.0.6 banner, form bat at stage 3 and form feral snowfox

Update 1.0.5 banner, form feral ocelot and form familiar fox

Under the Cursed Moon
An unknown magical force has altered your body… When the Cursed Moon rises, certain changes begin to manifest within you.

Shape Shifter Curse is a mod that focuses on gradually transforming into different forms based on vanilla creatures under the influence of the "Cursed Moon" and "Instincts" mechanics, gaining their unique abilities and drawbacks - each form with independent models and (potential) special animations!

Features

Forms

Tested and Verified Gameplay Experience

Balance IS fun - each form's abilities and disadvantages have undergone multiple iterations and extensive testing to add interesting features while respecting the original game experience.

Carefully Designed Models and Animations

No need to just imagine - each form has its own model, along with matching status animations.

Create Custom Forms and Abilities

Add your own ideas - while there are some limitations, you can customize your own forms through data packs + resource packs, including models, unique abilities, instinct changes, and description texts.

Check wiki for more infomation.

How Do I Begin?

When players first join a world, they will receive the Book of Shape Shifter item - open it and follow the guidance in the achievements page.

Hint: Look for creatures emitting enchantment effects, and collect special drops from creatures during the Cursed Moon event.

Available Forms

Check the mod wiki here:

This mod is still in early development, with more forms to be added later.

Installation

Required Mods

  • Azurelib
  • Pehkui
  • Satin API

Recommended Mods

  • First-person Model: while not required for core functionality, it enables proper first-person models and animations for each form, significantly enhancing immersion.
  • Rich Translatable Text: you can install this mod to display rich colored text in Book of Shape Shifter.
  • Mod Menu: you can conveniently modify the configuration of the mod within the game.
  • Leawind's Third Person: Third-person view is the best way to experience various form models and animations. The algorithm used by Leawind's Third Person mod allows comfortable and accurate aiming to any direction in third-person view, just like in first-person view, while achieving a cinematic feel.

Potentially Incompatible Mods

Mods that modify character animations (such as AnimationOverhaul, Emotecraft) may be incompatible. They might not cause logical conflicts, but using them together may break this mod's animations and models.

especially for feral forms...

 

Mods that modify combat mechanics (like BetterCombat) might cause issues with form abilities related to combat.

Server player optimization mods such as Too Many Players have known issues that can break form animations.

A huge thank you for your generous work that helped enhance this mod!

FAQ:

My character skin got replaced?

After enabling mod content, player skins will be replaced by the mod's built-in skin (aka: the shifter). This is for artistic consistency of form models and respecting other players' characters.
You can retain your own skin by using the in-game command: /shape-shifter-curse keep_original_skin true

Does it work on servers?

Yes!
After version 1.0.5, the mod has achieved full server compatibility. If you encounter any problems, please submit an issue report.

I don't like First-person Model's first-person view

After version 1.0.62, form models can display correctly without FirstPerson mod(though we still recommend FirstPerson mod for enhanced immersion).

How do I transform into other forms?

Please check the mod wiki

Are forms permanent?

Update 1.0.4 added a new feature for permanent form

Please check the mod wiki

I lost Book of Shape Shifter item

You can craft a new one with Untreated Moondust + book.

Is this mod SFW?

Absolutely!

Special Thanks

This is my first mod project. Without them as foundation, these ideas would have been difficult to realize.
