Question 1

Does Better Horses and Donkeys work on Minecraft 1.20.1?

Accepted Answer

Yes. 1.20.1 is the newest Minecraft version Better Horses and Donkeys declares support for, and the claim comes from the author's own release metadata rather than from a compatibility list somebody maintains by hand.

Question 2

Which Minecraft versions does Better Horses and Donkeys support?

Accepted Answer

Everything the author has declared, from 1.7.10 up to 1.20.1. The full list is in the table above, with the Java runtime each version needs next to it.

Question 3

Which loader does Better Horses and Donkeys need?

Accepted Answer

Forge. A build for one loader will not load on another, so this is the first thing to check before the Minecraft version.

Question 4

Which Java version do I need for Better Horses and Donkeys?

Accepted Answer

Java 17 or newer, because that is what the newest Minecraft release it supports requires. The requirement comes from the game rather than from the mod itself.

Question 5

How do I install Better Horses and Donkeys?

Accepted Answer

Install the matching loader first, then put the downloaded file in your mods folder and start the game. The loader, the mod and Minecraft all have to be on the same version, which is the usual reason a mod does not appear in game.

Question 6

Where do I download Better Horses and Donkeys safely?

Accepted Answer

From the author's own page on CurseForge, which is where the data here is synced from. MCReference never mirrors, re-hosts or repackages a file: every download button points at the original source, so you get exactly what the author published.
