Resource Ignorer is a utility mod that allows you to block specific resource files from loading using configurable regular expressions.
This mod provides a workaround for the rendering issue where Entity Model Features' custom entity eyes cannot be rendered on Epic Fight entities. Resource packs like Fresh Animations replace entity textures with eye-less versions, causing Epic Fight entities to lose their eyes because the eye textures cannot be applied correctly.
Add the following entries to config/resourceignorer-startup.toml to ignore the affected Fresh Animations textures:
ignore = [
"FreshAnimations_v[0-9.]+\\.zip/assets/minecraft/textures/entity/creeper/creeper.png",
"FreshAnimations_v[0-9.]+\\.zip/assets/minecraft/textures/entity/enderman/enderman.png",
