mimi sentry model for jenny

minecraft — Mods & Enhancements

This mod replaces the default Iron Golem model with a custom 'mimi sentry' model, designed to be a cute, chibi-style turret that looks like a small robot with a spinning head and glowing eyes. It changes the hitbox slightly (smaller visual but same collision) and adds custom animations for attacking and idle sway, making it perfect for tech-themed modpacks. Players install it to give their base defenses a unique, anime-inspired look while keeping vanilla behavior intact.

🎯 Tips & Tricks

Adjust the sentry's rotation speed via config

After installing, open the config file at config/mimi_sentry.toml. Find the line 'spin_speed = 1.0' and change it to 0.5 for slower, more menacing turns, or 2.0 for frantic spinning. Save the file and restart the game to see the change.

Spawn the sentry using commands for testing

In-game, press T and type '/summon minecraft:iron_golem ~ ~ ~ {NoAI:1}' to spawn a stationary sentry. Then use '/data merge entity @e[type=iron_golem,limit=1] {HandItems:[{id:"minecraft:stone_sword",Count:1},{}]}' to give it a weapon for visual flair, as the model renders the held item on its arm.

Use with 'Create' mod for mechanical synergy

Place the sentry near a Create mod 'Mechanical Bearing' and use a redstone clock to pulse the bearing, which will visually rotate the sentry's base, making it look like a powered turret. This works because the model has a separate base and head, allowing external rotation.

🔧 Troubleshooting

Conflict with 'Iron Golems: Better' mod causing model corruption

Load 'mimi sentry model for jenny' AFTER 'Iron Golems: Better' in the mods folder. If you use Forge, place this mod's jar file after the other in the mods directory, or use a mod manager like MultiMC to set load order. If corrupted, delete the other mod's model files in its jar and keep only this one.

Sentinel model disappears when using 'OptiFine' with shaders

OptiFine's shader pipeline overrides custom entity models. Go to Video Settings > Shaders > Shader Options > Entity, and set 'Entity Shadows' to OFF. If that fails, install 'Oculus' instead of OptiFine for Fabric, which handles custom models better.
