Install Creeper Eater: Ultra Hard #

  1. Install the Ultra Hard build for your Minecraft version (uhceu files).
  2. Do not mix these files with the standard Creeper Eater jar.
  3. Start a world knowing that every mistake may be your last.
  4. Survive — if you can.

Working with Creeper Eater: Ultra Hard #

Product-specific steps, separate from the general install guide above.

Use the uhceu builds

Install the file named **uhceu-2.1-…** for your Minecraft version — do not install this together with the standard Creeper Eater jar.

What's different

Devour replaces the explosion, the chase AI tracks through walls up to 15 blocks at 1.3× speed, difficulty is forced to Hard/Hardcore, spawns are doubled, and creepers spawn cross-dimension and during the day.

Folder locations by platform #

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 Creeper Eater: Ultra Hard #

  • Keep Creeper Eater: Ultra Hard 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.

Creeper Eater: Ultra Hard FAQ #

How is this different from Creeper Eater?
Ultra Hard is a completely separate project: stricter AI, faster devours, hardcore enforcement, and no mercy tuning. Standard Creeper Eater is the more forgiving entry point.
Is there a difficulty option?
Ultra Hard is tuned to a single ruthless curve. Fine-tuning lives in the JSON5 config, but there is no 'easy'.
Can I use both mods together?
No — they are separate projects with separate builds. Pick one per world.
Which versions are supported?
1.21.1 through 1.21.11, plus experimental 26.x builds.
