Hexerei: Willow Vines Fix

**Hexerei: Willow Vines Fix**

Hexerei’s willow vines drop nothing when you mine them with shears on NeoForge 1.21.1. This tiny data pack fixes that.

**The problem**

In Hexerei 0.5.0.3, the loot table for the willow vines uses a Forge-only condition that NeoForge 1.21.1 doesn’t recognise. The table fails to load, so the vines drop nothing. The hanging body block of the vine has no loot table at all, so it drops nothing either. The game log shows a “Couldn’t parse element … hexerei:blocks/willow_vines” error.

**What this pack does**

– Corrects the willow vines loot table to use NeoForge’s own shears condition.
– Adds the missing loot table for the hanging body block.
– Left-click a vine with shears and it drops Willow Vines, the same way vanilla vines and leaves work.

**Good to know**

– Mining by hand still drops nothing. The original table was meant to require shears.
– Right-clicking with shears does nothing. Hexerei doesn’t implement that for these blocks. Only left-click mining works.
– It contains data only, no code. It changes just these two loot tables.

**Requirements**

– Minecraft 1.21.1 (NeoForge)
– Hexerei 0.5.0.3 (required)

**Installation**

Put the zip in your world’s datapacks folder, then run /reload. In a modpack, you can also use it through Paxi (config/paxi/datapacks).

**Removing it**

Once Hexerei fixes these tables itself, you can delete this pack. Leaving it in is harmless.
