Horse-themed set of Minecraft mods

SWE/M (Star Worm Equestrian / Mods) is a free-to-use collection of mods for the sandbox survival video game Minecraft from Mojang Studios. This utility encompasses every mod created by the Star Worm Equestrian team. These mods strive to achieve a “perfect blend of realism and convenience,” following the theme of equestrianism

SWE/M and the Star Worm Equestrian team started with AlaharranHonor’s passion for games that featured horses after family problems separated him from a beloved horse named Lucy. AlaharranHonor sought to make destriers out of Minecraft horses, making them more robust, detailed, and immersive.

A comprehensive mod

Originally, this mod’s founder just wanted to upgrade the models and animations and enchant the armor of Minecraft horses. Smaller add-ons such as saddles, bridle racks, feeders, separators, and stall doors were added afterward. The mod eventually grew larger, and so did the number of people working behind it. Now, the mod is composed of projects that are all intended to significantly enhance the experience of equestrianism in the game.

SWLM (Star Worm Lighting Mod) adds a creative alternative to lighting. SWDM (Star Worm Decor Mod) adds 16 color block types, trapdoor variants, etc. SWLVM (Star Worm Livestock Mod) makes agriculture more realistic. SWRRM (Star Worm Realistic Roleplay Mod) allows players to play as a horse. The primary mod, SWEM, greatly expands equestrianism by upgrading horse models, adding more animations, expanding variety, and adding more depth to the gameplay.

This mod collection is one of the biggest out there. Just like every large mod, its installation can be challenging especially if you’re a beginner. The developers have provided guides to simplify the process, but it will take a considerable amount of effort. Moreover, you should also expect to encounter some issues during and after installation, given how comprehensive the mod package is.

Not just for horses

SWE/M – (Star Worm Equestrian / Mods) is more than just a mod for horses. It also includes improvements to lighting and expands decorating opportunities. The realism added to agriculture and the capability to roleplay as a horse further increased the value of its mod collection. It can be challenging to install and maintain, but it’s well worth it. Paired with mods like OptiFine for Minecraft, it can shine even more.
