Configs, Commands & Files
This section outlines the following functions/features: CONFIGS: How to tweak configurable game settings to your liking. COMMANDS: How to run (in-game) commands relating to SWEM Horses, or allocate inbuilt permissions. FILES: How to access and interpret files aimed at assisting servers in managing SWEM features.
Getting Started
Cantazarite
In order to obtain a SWEM horse, the player needs Cantazarite. Its ore is found underground or in the mountains, and once mined it can be used to brew a Cantazarite Potion. This potion is then used on vanilla horses by right clicking them, turning them into SWEM horses.
Tack
SWEM horses cannot be ridden without certain tack. A bridle, saddle blanket, saddle, and girth strap are necessary to control and stay on the horse, although there are many other pieces of optional tack. Most are crafted with refined leather among other items.
Farm structure
In the plains biome, broken-down farm structures spawn on occasion. These come with a house, a few stalls, and a small barn with barrels containing different SWEM items. These items include shavings, bandages, salve, rubber mats, glistening melons, friendly bars, and hitching posts. The structure also includes a well and a small plot growing wheat, oats, timothy grass, and alfalfa. The latter three are used in crafting quality bales and sweet feed for feeding horses.
This structure is especially helpful for a starter home. With a little TLC, it makes a nice house to get started in your journey.
Client Config
The SWEM client config adds an installation-specific configurable settings for QOL settings. These are client-side, so you can adjust them to your liking and they will only affect you. These settings will be the same across all your worlds on that instance, including any servers you join.

Configs Explained
General
Config: Short for configuration, which means to change something to your preference.
Default: Means the one that is preset. If at any time you need to reset, the default config is always okay to return to.
Lines: Configs are read by the computer in lines, like programming code. The lines staying the way they are is very important.
#: Means everything in that line of the config will not be read by the computer. Changes made here will effect nothing.
Remember the primary rule for configs: Do not change ANY text that is not clearly written as a change like true/false, numbers, and lists. These changeable things will be clearly defined and look like test questions.
Wings Transparency
[client.wings_tansparency]
# || Set how visible the horse wings should be! 0 = off, 1 = 50%, 2 = 100%
#Range: 0 ~ 2
wingsTransparency = 2This says: How visible the Amethyst Horse Armor wings should be by default.
It must be 0, 1, or 2 (0 = off, 1 = 50%, 2 = 100%). Default is 2.
You can always press . (period key) to toggle this in-game to your preference.

maleIconColor = "#4CBB17"This says: The color of the Stallion gender icon (if enabled). Must be a hex color code. Default is #4CBB17 (Blue).
If adjusted, the color of the hovering name (name-tag) will reflect the set hex color.
# || What colour the female icon should appear as.
# || This is a hex value, format: #A1B2C3. (Default is #FF4DAC)
femaleIconColor = "#6F2DA8"This says: The color of the Mare gender icon (if enabled). Must be a hex color code. Default is #6F2DA8 (Pink).
If adjusted, the color of the hovering name (name-tag) will reflect the set hex color.
# || What colour the icon should appear as, when the horse is infertile.
# || This is a hex value, format: #A1B2C3. (Default is #444269)
infertileIconColor = "#444269"This says: The color of the Stallion gender icon (if enabled). Must be a hex color code. Default is #444269 (Gray).

Common Config
The SWEM common config adds an installation-specific configurable settings for world generation (effective on generation of a new world).
MultiMC: Instance > Config Folder (Right Sidebar) > swem-common.toml
CurseForge: Profile > ... (next to play) > Open Folder > config > swem-common.toml
Forge (Windows): [user]/AppData/Roaming/.minecraft/config/swem-common.toml
Forge (Mac): ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/config/swem-common.toml
If the config file is not visible in the config file, try restarting Minecraft to generate it. If that does not work, copy and paste the full default config (drop down menu below) into a .txt file, edit the values as needed and name it swem-common.toml. Place it in the config folder to be read upon next start-up.

SWEM Cobble Generation
# || Enable SWEMCobble ore generation?
enableSWEMCobbleOre = trueThis says: Does SWEMCobble spawn at all? Must be True or False. Default is true.
It is recommended to turn this to False is you have SWLM at the same time as SWEM. It will not hurt if they are both on at the same time, but SWEMCobble produces SWEM versions of SWLM items - an unnecessary duplicate.
# || SWEMCobble ore vein size
#Range: > 1
swemCobbleVeinSize = 7This says: How many blocks of SWEMCobble can spawn per vein. It must be more than 1. Default is 7.
# || SWEMCobble ore vein count per chunk
#Range: > 1
swemCobbleVeinCount = 12This says: How many veins of SWEMCobble will spawn per chunk. It must be more than 1. Default is 12.
# || SWEMCobble ore minimum height
#Range: > 1

# || SWEMCobble ore maximum height
#Range: > 1
swemCobbleMaxHeight = 128This says: What maximum Y Level (height) SWEMCobble will spawn at. It must be more than 1. Default is 128.
Cantazarite Generation
# || Enable cantazarite ore generation?
enableCantazariteOre = trueThis says: Does Cantazarite Ore spawn at all? Must be True or False. Default is true.
It is NOT recommended to turn this to False - this will prevent crafting or repairing many important SWEM items.

Server Config
The SWEM server config adds world-specific configurable settings for features like needs, tack, skills etc. It can be opened and edited with a simple text editing program like Notepad.
Singleplayer
MultiMC: Instance > Minecraft Folder (Right Sidebar) > Saves > [World Name] > Serverconfig > swem-server.toml
CurseForge: Profile > ... (next to play) > Open Folder > Saves > [World Name] > Serverconfig > swem-server.toml
Forge (Windows): [user]/AppData/Roaming/.minecraft/saves/[world name]/serverconfig/swem-server.toml
Forge (Mac): ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/saves/[world name]/serverconfig/swem-server.toml
Multiplayer (Server)
[server root]/[world name]/serverconfig/swem-server.toml
If the config file is not in the folder, then try running the world again to generate it.
If its still not there, copy/paste the full default config (below) into a .txt file, edit the config values as you wish, name it 'swem-server.toml', and put the .txt file into the folder. The server should read it upon next start-up.

Remember the primary rule for configs: Do not change ANY text that is not clearly written as a change like true/false, numbers, and lists. These changeable things will be clearly defined and look like test questions.
Horse Care
# || Do horses need to eat? (Default = True = Yes)
needFood = trueThis says: Turn on or off the need to eat. Must be True or False. Default is True.
Need for food effects horse ability. If the horse isn't fed often enough, it will not be able to gait up when riding and will lose health.
Turning this off means the horse will no longer be limited by need for food.
# || Do horses need to drink? (Default = True = Yes)
needWater = trueThis says: Turn on or off the need to drink. Must be True or False. Default is True.
Need for water effects horse ability. If the horse isn't fed often enough, it will not be able to gait up when riding and will lose health.
Turning this off means the horse will no longer be limited by need for water.
# || Enable Poop ticking on swem horses? (Default = True = Yes)
poopTick = trueThis says: Turns on or off the need to poop. Must be True or False. Default is True.
This effects nothing but horse care. If you don't want the habit of cleaning stalls, turn this to False.
# || Specify range (radius) that the horses search for food/water. The larger the radius, the more lag it can cause per horse.
# || We recommend "15" (30b diameter) for servers.
#Range: 5 ~ 40
intakeSearchRadius = 15This says: How far horses will search for food and water. Must be between 5 and 40 (blocks). Default is 15.
This effects how easily horses find accessible food, and choose the best food (further) over available food (nearer). Having a greater search radius is ideal for pasture horses that may not have water sources nearby, however an increased radius can cause lag.
Servers or players who experience significant lag should keep this value at default or lower to maximize their performance.
# || Specify in seconds the interval between each poop cycle.
# || We recommend '1800' (30min) for singleplayer, and '2700' (45min) for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1
poopInterval = 1800This says: How often your horses will poop. It must be more than 1. Default is 1800 (30min).
This is in ticks. 20 ticks = 1 second. The higher the number, the less they poop. This time will only pass while the horse is loaded.
# || Enable Pee ticking on swem horses? (Default = True = Yes)
peeTick = trueThis says: Turns on or off the need to pee. Must be True or False. Default is True.
This effects nothing but horse care. If you don't want the habit of cleaning stalls, turn this to False.
# || Specify in seconds the interval between each pee cycle.
# || We recommend '1500' (25min) for singleplayer, and '2700' (45min) for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1
peeInterval = 1500This says: How often your horses will pee. It must be more than 1. Default is 930.
This is in ticks. 20 ticks = 1 second. The higher the number, the less they pee. This time will only pass while the horse is loaded.
Servers that aim to limit overbreeding or have reproductive 'cycles' should set an extended cooldown period.
# || Specify how many seconds it takes for the foal to growp up?
# || We recommend '1800' (30min) for singleplayer, and '28800' (8hr) for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1
foalAgeInSeconds = 1800This says: How many seconds it takes for a foal to grow up. It must be more than 1. Default is 1800.
1800seconds = 30minutes - this time will only pass while the foal is loaded.
Servers that want an extended period of foal care and growth time should extend this according to their needs.
# || Specify how many minutes the Health Booster lasts for?
# || We recommend '600' ~(30mc days) for singleplayer, and '10,000' ~(504mc days / 7irl days) for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1
healthBoosterTime = 600This says: How many minutes a health booster lasts. It must be more than 1. Default is 600.
600 minutes = 10 hours RL or ~30MC days - this time will only pass while the horse is loaded.
Servers that offer boosters as a veterinary treatment service should increase this value to reflect the ideal duration for the price charged, factoring in that horses loaded very frequently (ie in neighbourhoods) will lose this booster quicker.
Horse Breeding
# || Do horses stay in love mode forever? (Default = False = No)
# || If false, horses will only be in love mode for the amount of seconds specified in stallionLoveTime and mareLoveTime.
permanentLoveMode = falseThis says: This turns on or off love mode being permanent love mode (seeking a partner).
Must be True or False. Default is True.
# || Specify how many seconds the stallion stays in love mode (Only has an effect if permanentLoveMode is false).
# || We recommend '1800' (30min) for singleplayer, and '28800' (8hr) for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1
stallionLoveTimeInSeconds = 1800This says: How many seconds a stallion will remain in love mode (seeking a partner). It must be more than 1. Default is 1800.
1800seconds = 30minutes - this time will only pass while the horse is loaded. Overriden if permanent love mode is enabled.
# || Specify how many seconds the mare stays in love mode (Only has an effect if permanentLoveMode is false).
# || We recommend '1800' (30min) for singleplayer, and '28800' (8hr) for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1
mareLoveTimeInSeconds = 1800This says: How many seconds a mare will remain in love mode (seeking a partner). It must be more than 1. Default is 1800.
1800seconds = 30minutes - this time will only pass while the horse is loaded. Overriden if permanent love mode is enabled.
# || Specify how many seconds it takes for the mare to give birth
# || Set to 1 to disable gestation period, and making the birth instant.
# || We recommend '1800' (30min) for singleplayer, and '28800' (8hr) for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1
mareGestationTimeInSeconds = 1800This says: How many seconds a mare's gestation (pregnancy) lasts. It must be more than 1. Default is 1800.
900seconds = 15minutes - this time will only pass while the horse is loaded.
# || Specify how many seconds it takes for the stallion to be able to breed again.
# || We recommend '900' (15min) for singleplayer, and '14400' (4hr) for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1
stallionBreedingCooldownInSeconds = 900This says: How many seconds it takes before a stallion is fertile after breeding. It must be more than 1. Default is 1800.
1800seconds = 30minutes - this time will only pass while the horse is loaded.
# || Specify how many seconds it takes for the mare to be able to breed again.
# || We recommend '1800' (30min) for singleplayer, and '28800' (8hr) for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1
mareBreedingCooldownInSeconds = 1800This says: How many seconds it takes before a mare is fertile after birthing. It must be more than 1. Default is 1800.
1800seconds = 30minutes - this time will only pass while the horse is loaded.
# || Specify how many times a stallion can breed before it is exhausted.
# || Disable this option by setting it to '0'.
#Range: > 0
maxStallionCovers = 0This says: How many covers a stallion can have before it becomes 'infertile' (capped). It must be more than 0-1+. Default is 0.
0 = no limit.
# || Specify how many times a mare can breed before it is exhausted.
# || Disable this option by setting it to '0'.
#Range: > 0
maxMareCovers = 0This says: How many births a mare can have before it becomes 'infertile' (capped). It must be more than 0-1+. Default is 0.
0 = no limit.
# || Can the owner geld their own horses? (Default = True = Yes)
# || If false, only op's and people with the permission node (swem.horse.geld) can geld horses.
ownerCanGeld = trueThis says: If the owner can geld their horse via command or potion.
Must be True or False. Default is True.
# || Specify the chance of a mare giving birth to twins (Default = 1,000 = 0.1%)
# || If the value is higher than 1,000 the odds go down, if the value is lower than 1,000 the odds go up.
#Range: > 1
twinBirthChance = 1000This says: The rarity of a twin foal birth, 1 in # births resulting in twins. It must be more 1. Default is 1000.
1000 = 1 in 1000 births result in twins. The percentage is so low as viable twin births are incredibly rare and risky.
Tack Dependencies
# || Is the Bridle slot required before equipping a Blanket? (Default = True = Yes)
needBridle = trueThis says: This turns on or off the need for the Bridle to equip a Saddle Blanket.
Must be True or False. Default is True.
This feature is only for life-like accuracy. Disabling it does not effect gameplay.
# || Is the Blanket slot required before equipping a Saddle? (Default = True = Yes)
needBlanket = trueThis says: This turns on or off the need for the Saddle Blanket to be placed first before putting the Saddle on.
Must be True or False. Default is True.

# || The Bridle is needed to steer the horse. (If disabled, you would still need a saddle). (Default = True = Yes)
needBridleToSteer = trueThis says: This turns on or off the need for the Bridle to steer the horse.
Must be True or False. Default is True.
Disabling this does effect gameplay. If this is False, you will only need a Saddle to command the horse while riding.
Horse Experience Levels
# || Amount of XP required to max a horse's Speed stat.
# || We recommend '13500' for singleplayer, and '100000' for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1
maxSpeedXP = 13500
# || Amount of XP required to max a horse's Jump stat.
# || We recommend '13500' for singleplayer, and '100000' for multiplayer.
#Range: > 1

Decrease these values if you would like to spend less time training horses, or increase one/specific/all to spend longer.
For multiplayer servers it is highly recommended to increase skills accordingly if the server values commitment to training a horse and/or aims to encourage server competitions being higher prestige the higher a horse's level is.
Currently the health skill can only be maxed with XP potions - this feature will be implemented in future.
Server Admin Settings
Settings specifically aimed at Multiplayer servers to help manage or promote survival economies, horse acquisition and population.
# || Enable Coat Cycling (via lapis lazuli and redstone)?
# || Do not enable if the server is multiplayer and has an economy.
allowCoatCycling = trueThis says: Turns on or off the ability to Lapis/Redstone flip through coats. Must be True or False. Default is True.
When disabled, new coats can only be acquired via converting vanilla ponies (if permitted), breeding horses selectively or summon commands.
Servers that aim to encourage an economy for horse breeding and sales should disable (set to false) coat cycling.
# || Can Secret Coats be obtained via Secret Items? (Default = True = Yes)
# || Do not enable if the server is multiplayer and has an economy.
allowSecretCoats = trueThis says: Turns on or off the ability to make secret coats using their special items. Must be True or False. Default is True.
When disabled, secret coats can only be acquired with summon commands and normal conversion items will not work.
Servers that intend to restrict all secret coats or for special rewards should disable (set to false) secret coat converting.
# || Enable Breeding Tokens? This limits breeding of horses and ponies to Tokens while preventing feed from escalating foal growth time.
# || Enable if the server is multiplayer and has an economy.
tokensBreeding = falseThis says: Turns on or off the ability to breed and create SWEM horses normally. Must be True or False. Default is false.
When enabled, SWEM horses can only be bred with breeding tokens or spawned by summon commands. Cantazarite potions will NOT work on vanilla ponies.
Servers that aim for all horses to come via sales or rescue (without having to turn off mob spawning to prevent vanilla horses) or limit who can breed horses should enable (set to true) breeding tokens. See also: Recipe control config for breeding token crafting restrictions HERE.
# || Enable the horse's food/water systems to be based off the 24 hour day?
# || This is recommended for servers ONLY.
serverTime = falseThis says: Turns on or off needs resetting on a 24hrs (RL) cycle depending on time. Must be True or False. Default is false.
When enabled, needs will reset at 8AM GMT and be calculated at 9PM GMT each server day provided the horse is loaded.
Servers that have food/water enabled and enforce care standards should enable this to prevent horses missing many meals or drinks based on MC days while loaded by other players.
# || Should xp cost for renaming items in an cantazarite anvil be removed?
removeXpRenameCost = trueThis says: Turns on or off cantazarite anvils allowing item renaming at no XP cost. Must be True or False. Default is true.
When enabled, it will be free (requiring no XP levels) to rename items in the cantazarite anvil, permitting players to do harmless functions like set nametags, name tack items, rename their enchanted tools or armor.
Full (Default) Config
Full Default Config 1.18.2 [1.2.8 Food System]
If you notice changes you don't like but don't know how to undo the changes you made to the Config, shut down the game and replace the config with this default one and the config will be reset. If using an older release, delete the config file and relaunch to regenerate it.
Troubleshooting
"I cannot see the options shown here!"
Check all of the following:
- You are using Minecraft 1.18.2 - these values no longer represent older versions!
- You are using the latest release for 1.18.2 - these values represent configs for the very latest release!
If you have confirmed the above and still do not have the options listed here you will need to reload your config file.
- Close your world if you are currently in it
- Go to your server config file for that specific world - how to get there is shown at the top of this page
- Open the file and make note of any values you have set if you have adjusted it before (if not, there is no need)
- Delete the swem-server.toml file
- Load into your Minecraft world to regenerate the config
- The newly generated config file should be a fresh default config
- Adjust and settings you need, save the file and reload into your world again to apply the changes!

SWEM Commands
To use commands listed below, the following crtieria must be met:
- Commands (cheats) enabled
- User holds key(s) for specific commands.
Basic Commands
These are commands that are accessible to all players by default.
Change Ownership
Transfer ownership must be used while riding a horse to have an effect - only the current owner can transfer ownership.
/swem horse transfer <playername> Transfer a horse to another player (new owner).
Add Trusted Players
Using this command 'whitelists' player(s) to ride and interact with a horse that is set to Trusted only.
Trusted player commands must be used while riding a horse to have an effect.
/swem horse addfriend <playername> Add a player to a horse's trusted list (must be the owner).
/swem horse removefriend <playername> Remove a player from a horse's trusted list (must be the owner).
List Owned
/swem horse owned list Displays a player's total # owned horses and lists horses names (if named).
Tack Render Commands
This command unrenders (makes invisible) tack. Repeat the command to render (make visible) it again. It is visible to client and reflected on server, so updates for both the player using the command anyone around. This can be used to represent tackless riding or filming of 'wild horses' if the rider is made invisible via potion or commands.
Tack render commands must be used while riding a horse to have an effect.
/swem render bridle
/swem render blanket
/swem render saddle
/swem render girth_strap
/swem render all
RRP Commands
Realistic Roleplay (RRP) commands help creators or players run animations on cue for photos or videos. The animations are purely visual and will not have an effect (ie damage for bucking). Looping animations (∞) play continuously until the command is repeated to disable it, any other commands are one-time per command. Looped animations will return to looping after a one-time is used while in effect. The transition between these animations is not guaranteed to be smooth (ie eating > rearing).
RRP commands must be used while riding a horse to have an effect.
/swem rrp bite Horse will lunge forward into a bite once.
/swem rrp buck Horse will buck once (as with taming).
/swem rrp eat ∞ Horse will lower their head into a looped grazing animation, and raise their head if run again.
/swem rrp kick Horse will kick out with one rear leg.
/swem rrp lay ∞ Horse will lower themselves to the ground, and get up if run again (player 'floats' if riding)
/swem rrp rear Horse will rear once.
/swem rrp sad ∞ Horse will lower it's head 'sadly' until run again. Walking will use a 'sad walk'.
/swem rrp stomp Horse will half-rear up, lunging forward to stomp with their front hooves once.
Breeding Commands (1.18.2-1.4.0+)
If configured on servers, these commands will only be usable by OPs or with relevant permission nodes.
Breeding commands must be used while riding a horse to have an effect.
swem horse breeding advance Advance a Mare's pregnancy - will birth shortly after.swem horse breeding change 1.18 Change gender between Stallion / Gelding <--> Mare.
1.20 Change gender between Stallion <--> Mare or Gelding <--> Infertile Mare.
swem horse breeding geld 1.18 Change a Stallion to a Gelding (infertile male).
swem horse breeding fertile 1.20 Change a Gelding to a Stallion, or Infertile Mare to a Mare (fertile).
swem horse breeding infertile 1.20 Change a Stallion to a Gelding or a Mare to an Infertile Mare.swem horse breeding reset cooldown Reset (to 0) the breeding cooldown timer.swem horse breeding reset pregnancy Reset (remove) the pregnancy status of a Mare.
Filming Commands
These commands will only be usable to players with the Film key.
Wild mode and Max Gallop commands must be used while riding a horse to have an effect.
Multiplayer: Use is NOT recommended for SMPs as it provides free tack, max affinity, OP gallop and can be misused!
Wild Mode
Wild Mode was added to help creators quickly create film-ready horses. These horses are NOT actually wild. Effects:
- Instant taming (if currently untamed)
- Instant tackup (gray western tack)
- Unrenders tack
- Set Jump and Speed to Level 1
- Set Affinity to max (reduced refusals)
Tack visibility is temporary and will render again on re-log/restart, or can be rendered again via commands. The skill changes are permanent unless a horse is adjusted via commands or training and should not be used on personal horses. This command has NO effect on the rider, it will not make them invisible.
/swem rrp wild
Max Gallop
Resets the gallop cooldown and sets the maximum gallop time to 120 seconds.
/swem rrp maxgallop
Moderator Commands
These commands will only be usable to players with the Mod key.
Commands requiring a [playername] specified will need to be run while the intended player is online to work.
/swem horse owned list <playername> Displays the total # owned horses and lists horses, including name (if named).
/swem horse owned search <#> Displays a list of any players that exceed the ownership # specified.
/swem horse tame Instantly tame a nearby or ridden (wild) horse.
/swem horse tackup Instantly tackup a horse with basic white Western tack.
/swem horse addfriend <playername> Add a player to a horse's trusted list (even if not the owner).
/swem horse removefriend <playername> Remove a player from a horse's trusted list (even if not the owner).
/swem horse transfer <playername> Transfer a horse to another player (even if not the owner).
/swem set allNeeds <1-5> Set a horse's needs (health, hunger, thirst) to the specified value or level.
/swem set health <1-5> Set a horse's health value to the specified value (HP: 6 / 10 / 20 / 30 / 40)

Set level commands must be used while riding a horse to have an effect.
/swem set affinity <1-12> Set the affinity skill [1-12]
/swem set health <1-5> Set the health skill [1-5]
/swem set jump <1-5> Set the jump skill [1-5]
/swem set speed <1-5> Set the speed skill [1-5]
/swem set all <1-12> Set all skills [1-12] Choosing 12 will max all skills fully.
Assigning Keys
Keys do NOT stack - you need all the keys relevant to the desired keys (ie Admin does not inherit the commands of Mod).
As shown in the above sections, some SWEM commands are linked to a role 'key' to prevent misuse of some non-survival friendly commands on servers. Please read the below information carefully:
- Singleplayer (SP): All keys can be assigned via the
/swem key assigncommand. - Multiplayer (MP): Admin keys must be assigned via console access only.
- MP (Essentials): Admin keys must be assigned prior to opening the world to other players.
- Players with the admin key can assign film and mod keys to other users without requiring OP.
/swem key assign <playername> swem:film Give a player the film key.
/swem key assign <playername> swem:mod Give a player the mod key.
/swem key assign <playername> swem:admin Give a player the admin key. MP: Must be assigned via console .
/swem key revoke <playername> swem:film Remove the film key from a player.
/swem key revoke <playername> swem:mod Remove the mod key from a player.
/swem key revoke <playername> swem:admin Remove the admin key from a player.
/swem key list List the currently held keys.
Other
Summon
Summon is a vanilla Minecraft command that can also be used to summon modded entities. By default (unless a perms mod is used) these can only be used by players with OP.
/summon swem:swem_horse
Summons an (untamed) SWEM horse in a random color.
/summon swem:swem_horse ~ ~ ~ {HorseVariant:##}
Summons an (untamed) SWEM horse of a certain coat variant. Replace the ## with the coats data value.
/summon swem:swem_horse ~ ~ ~ {NoAI: 1}
Summons an (untamed) SWEM horse with no AI. This means the horse will not move or function besides playing idles. It can still be ridden, but when unmounted or not being led it will just stand still.
/summon swem:wormieboi
Summons a wormie boi... a worm on a string!
/summon swem:swem_poop
Summons a pile of poop. This was not a typo.
Change Ownership
This vanilla command should no longer be needed in 1.18 with OP overrides to horse ownership (when set to none/trusted only) but it is noted in case of any issue with accessing a restricted horse.
/data modify entity @e[type=swem:swem_horse,sort=nearest,limit=1] Owner set value PLAYERSFULLUUIDHERE
- Stand near the target horse - move away any other nearby SWEM horses (to not accidentally edit their data instead)
- Find the UUID of a (OP) player, you can get it on a website like MCUUID, and edit the command
- Run the command. You can change the horse to All, mount it and use the normal transfer command
Known Issues
If you find an issue, please report it to our bugs channel on Discord. We ask that you look to see if your issue was reported first!
- [-] Keys override OP access and cannot be circumvented to set custom role permissions via permission plugins.

Recipe Config
The SWEM common config adds an installation-specific configurable settings for recipes of items that servers or players might want to restrict access to.
MultiMC: Instance > Config Folder (Right Sidebar) > swem-recipe-control
CurseForge: Profile > ... (next to play) > Open Folder > config > swem-recipe-control
Forge (Windows): [user]/AppData/Roaming/.minecraft/config/swem-recipe-control.toml
Forge (Mac): ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/config/swem-recipe-control.toml
If the config file is not visible in the config file, try restarting Minecraft to generate it. If that does not work, copy and paste the full default config (drop down menu below) into a .txt file, edit the values as needed and name it swem-recipe-control.toml. Place it in the config folder to be read upon next start-up.
Configs Explained
General
Config: Short for configuration, which means to change something to your preference.
Default: Means the one that is preset. If at any time you need to reset, the default config is always okay to return to.
Lines: Configs are read by the computer in lines, like programming code. The lines staying the way they are is very important.
#: Means everything in that line of the config will not be read by the computer. Changes made here will effect nothing.
Remember the primary rule for configs: Do not change ANY text that is not clearly written as a change like true/false, numbers, and lists. These changeable things will be clearly defined and look like test questions.
Obtaining
# || How is Amethyst Weapons and Armor (Player) obtained? 1 = Survival Crafting, 2 = Creative Menu, 3 = /give
#Range: 1 ~ 3
obtainAmethystGear = 1This says: How can players obtain Amethyst Armor or Weapons? Must be 1, 2 or 3. Default is 1 (crafting).
Survival singleplayer users can leave this at 1 if they want to craft Amethyst armor/weapons and will not have access to creative or commands.
Servers that want to restrict access to Amethyst Armor for approved users or 'remove' it entirely should limit it to 2 or 3 depending on whether they permit non-staff users creative access. Useful for realistic servers where this armor may be OP.
# || How are Rosettes obtained? 1 = Survival Crafting, 2 = Creative Menu, 3 = /give
#Range: 1 ~ 3
obtainRosettes = 1This says: How can players obtain basic tier Rosettes? Must be 1, 2 or 3. Default is 1 (crafting).
Survival singleplayer users can leave this at 1 if they want to craft simple rosettes and will not have access to creative or commands.
Servers that want to restrict access to rosettes for recognized/approved events only should limit it to 2 or 3 depending on whether they permit non-staff users creative access.
# || How are Two Tailed Ribbons obtained? 1 = Survival Crafting, 2 = Creative Menu, 3 = /give
#Range: 1 ~ 3
obtainTwoTailedRibbons = 2 # || How are Three Tailed Ribbons obtained? 1 = Survival Crafting, 2 = Creative Menu, 3 = /give
#Range: 1 ~ 3
obtainThreeTailedRibbons = 2 # || How are Champion and Reserve Champion Ribbons obtained? 1 = Survival Crafting, 2 = Creative Menu, 3 = /give
#Range: 1 ~ 3
obtainChampionshipRibbons = 2 # || How are Plaques obtained? 1 = Survival Crafting, 2 = Creative Menu, 3 = /give
#Range: 1 ~ 3
obtainPlaques = 2 # || How are Trophies obtained? 1 = Survival Crafting, 2 = Creative Menu, 3 = /give
#Range: 1 ~ 3
obtainTrophies = 2This says: How can players obtain (various) Rosettes or Awards? Must be 1, 2 or 3. Default is 2 (creative or commands only).
Survival singleplayer users can change this to 1 if they want to craft rosettes etc and will not have access to creative or commands.
Servers that want to restrict access to rosettes for recognized/approved events only should limit it to 2 or 3 depending on whether they permit non-staff users creative access.
# || How are Breeding Tokens obtained? 1 = Survival Crafting, 2 = Creative Menu, 3 = /give
#Range: 1 ~ 3
obtainTokensBreeding = 3This says: How can players obtain breeding tokens? Must be 1, 2 or 3. Default is 3 (commands only).
This only needs to be changed if the Server Config has breeding tokens set to true (enabled). If disabled, horses can be bred normally with sweet feed and do not require breeding tokens.
Servers that want to restrict breeding to approved players or sell tokens to users as part of an economy should set breeding tokens to true in Server Config - and limit recipe to 2 or 3 depending on whether non-staff users are permitted creative access.
# || How are Boosters obtained? 1 = Survival Crafting, 2 = Creative Menu, 3 = /give
#Range: 1 ~ 3
obtainBoosters = 1 This says: How can players obtain booster shots? Must be 1, 2 or 3. Default is 1 (crafting).
Survival singleplayer users can leave this at 1 if they want to craft booster shots and will not have access to creative or commands.
Servers that want to offer health boosting or offer veterinary treatment as part of a restricted job role or service should limit it to 2 or 3 depending on whether they permit non-staff users creative access.

Horse Data
The Horse Data file (1.18.2+) adds information on horses within the world and allows players or servers to reference information that would otherwise be inaccessible outside of code or NBT explorers / editors.
MultiMC: Instance > Minecraft Folder (Right Sidebar) > Saves > [World Name] > Serverconfig > swem > horsedata.json
CurseForge: Profile > ... (next to play) > Open Folder > Saves > [World Name] > Serverconfig > swem > horsedata.json
Forge (Windows): [user]/AppData/Roaming/.minecraft/saves/[world name]/serverconfig/swem/horsedata.json
Forge (Mac): ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/saves/[world name]/serverconfig/swem/horsedata.json
Servers: World > Serverconfig > swem > horsedata.json
Horse Data Explained
Horse Data is only a reference source and cannot be changed to adjust entity data or remove entities in game!
Horse Data can be opened via a text editor (ie Notepad) and provides the following information:
| Data | Definition |
| Horse ID | The horse's unique identifier (UUID) |
| Horse name | Nametagged name or 'SWEM Horse' if N/A |
| Owner ID | The current owner's unique identifier (UUID) |
| Owner Name | The name of the current owner as displayed in the horse GUI |
| Dimension | The dimension they were in (on last info save) |
| Position | The X, Y and Z coordinates they were at (on last info save) |
| 'Is Dead' | The status of a horse as either alive (false) or deceased (true) |
| Inventory Data | The data of tack slots (air = no item in slot) |
| Progression Data |
The data of skill levels and training |
| Jump / Speed / Affinity default = 0 (level 1), health = 1 (level 1) | |
| Days 'swiped' = Uses of desensitization items | |
| Desensitization items = ?? | |
|
Data is saved routinely and may not reflect changes to information (ie location) post-save. SP worlds require a save / exit to update the data file, whereas servers can usually access info accurate to within a few minutes without a shutdown. |
|
Uses
The horse data has many potential uses - even as a reference only source:
- Find information on current horses in the world, search by specifics such as name / owner ID.
- Moderation: Investigate potential misuse of exploits or rule breaking involving SWEM horses.
- Management: Search by owner to ensure adherence to ownership limits. (See below)
- Management: Facilitate resolving issues (bugs etc) by being able to reinstate evidenced stats or data.
- Resurrection: Reference a deceased horse's last known stats to offer 'resurrection'. (See below)
- Relocation: Find the last known location of a horse to find missing entities or narrow search radius. (See below)
Horse Ownership
World Owners (SP) or Server staff with console access (MP) can of course search (Ctrl+F) for an owner's UUID in horse data and determine currently owned horses - alive or deceased - and information such as location and stats. This may provide useful for servers in moderation where imposed restrictions on number of owned horses exists and there is concern for misuse.
However, horse data and the horse owner data entry offers the most significant feature built into the game; searching by criteria for this specific information. With adequate permissions, the following commands can be run:
/swem horse owned list <player> List the number of owned horses (and the names if nametagged) of a specific player.
/swem horse owned search <#> List the names of players and # of horses owned that exceeds the limit of # owned.
Resurrection
Horses Data was implemented with the intention to enable in-game resurrection further into development.
Horse Data does not currently offer a way to resurrect horses in game, or alter the state of a horse via file editing. However, for servers that want to offer a low exploit-risk resurrection service (free or at cost) the horse data file contains most, if not all, the required information to create a new horse and reinstate the last-known skill levels, equipment and owner.
Similarly, SP users can utilise the information in much the same way if they want to recreate a previous horse as accurately as possible.
Relocation
Horse Data does not save constantly, so coordinate locations may reflect the exact location of a horse on the move.
Horse Data does not currently offer a way to relocate horses in game, or alter the location of a horse horse via file editing. What it can do is provide a good starting location and dimension to conduct a manual search, or to narrow down search radius for searching via Minecraft commands. This information removes the necessity of using external NBT explorers, spending time searching when location commands fail (or cannot be used due to lack of a name / unknown exact name / many entities with the same name), leaving players hoping someone will find them in the future or even futile searching for a horse that may no longer be alive.
Other
The Horse Data file should be safe to delete if it become corrupted or remove outdated information on deceased horses. It will regenerate with data of new and existing horses (provided they are loaded by a player). It will not reinstate the data of deceased horses prior to resetting the file.
Known Issues
If you find an issue, please report it to our bugs channel on Discord. We ask that you look to see if your issue was reported first!
- [~] Saving data might occur too frequently, causing console spam and potentially lag on servers.
