Install Bucket of Everything #
Install Fabric Loader for 1.21 (plus Fabric API if the downloads page asks for it), place the JAR in your mods folder, and launch with the Fabric profile.
- Install the mod on a supported 1.21.x version.
- Craft or obtain a bucket.
- Right-click an entity with the bucket to capture it.
- Right-click the ground to release the entity.
- Back up your world before heavy use — this is an early alpha.
Working with Bucket of Everything #
Product-specific steps, separate from the general install guide above.
Capture any living thing
Right-click a mob with the Bucket to store it with full NBT; right-click again to release it somewhere new. Players are never captured.
Optional config
**config/bucketofeverything.json** lets you blacklist mobs and allow boss/villager capture. No Fabric API needed.

MultiMC / Prism users: these folders live inside Instances/<instance>/.minecraft/. Match the build to your exact Minecraft version — the compatibility table in the docs lists every supported version.
Configure #
Settings live in the config folder (JSON5 files you can edit by hand) and, where available, in the in-game settings screen the mod adds. The exact keys and keybinds are listed in the documentation and the FAQ below.
Tips for Bucket of Everything #
- Keep Bucket of Everything on the version range shown on its product page.
- If it doesn't load, confirm the JAR is in the right mods folder for the launcher and version you chose.
- Bedrock Edition, mobile, and console can't run Java Edition mods or packs — for a port or custom variant, request a commission.
