This Mod Should Only Be Downloaded If you Understand that your worlds probably will be terraformed. Don't Blame Me, nor go complaining here, nor post on other threads. This Mod is meant for Overpowered Tough Fights. Don't play without Being Prepared for a Tough Fight.
Hi everyone. I recently downloaded the Minecraft Coder Pack. I had read a LOT of dragon requests, but no one actually made one. I decided I would try. Keep in mind I made it how I thought a dragon should be, not how someone else thinks. I'm not that good at Minecraft modding, but everyone I know said that the dragon I made is a really tough monster... The dragon looks kinda like the Night Fury from "How to train your dragon" (:tongue.gif:), but thats just because I suck at modeling. If someone wants to help make a better model, PM me. This is my first MineCraft mod, though I have made mods for a lot of other games.
<PLACEHOLDER FOR STORY/BACKGROUND INFORMATION>
Not the best pictures, but perhaps they will suffice? Anyone who wants to get a better one is welcome, but personally, its hard to get close to one of those things.
Normal Dragon.
SPECS:
-drops 7/10 times, drops a the other 3 times.
-has 100 health and regenerates it.
-shoots fireballs that have a random damage (a seperate entity for compatibility)
-you can "tame" it if you ride it once, after you saddle it with a dragon saddle (see below)
-spawns in the Nether, on Netherrack, making them VERY common there. Adds to the challenge
-Has a chance of dropping a dragon egg that can spawn a random type of dragon. I am going to change that with the latest update (version 7)
<WATER DRAGON PICTURE HERE>
Water Dragon:
SPECS:
-Same as Normal Dragon, except
-Spawns in water
-Very Rare.
<OBSIDIAN DRAGON PICTURE HERE>
Obsidian Dragon:
SPECS:
-200 health
-usually blocks the attack, though you currently cannot tell
-spawns on obsidian
-Tougher AI
Nature Dragon:
SPECS:
-Weaker attack
-faster attack
-really rare, but common in huge forests
Dragon Saddle:
Crafted:
[]

TODO:
-Sound. Currently that of a spider no sound.
-Elemental Dragons. Other Dragons types? I'm open to suggestions.
-PERHAPS suggestions. I will not change it to everyones ideas, just the ones i like.
Please excuse my spelling. I will go over and edit it later.
I WILL NOT LISTEN NOR RESPOND TO PEOPLE THAT DO NOT ACT IN A CIVIL MANNER. NOR WILL I RESPOND TO PEOPLE WHO DID NOT BOTHER TO READ THE PREVIOUS POSTS, INCLUDING THIS ONE.
Alright People, Here you go. Keep in Mind that this download contains the mod with TEST settings, meaning it spawns more. Its now compatible. BACK UP YOUR WORLDS. The dragon is very powerful. Your worlds would be terraformed fast if you engage in battle. I recommend a new world for fighting these things. I just have one last thing to say, or perhaps 2. Have fun and report ideas/bugs.
Alredstone was kind enough to produce a video. Keep in mind this is for the version 1.0 of Dragon Mod. 2.0 will not have as many dragons spawning, but will have many new features.
This is an alternate skin for the dragon, created by Kattalassien.
This is the skin mapping for the latest dragon model. Feel free to make your own.
This is an alternate skin for the Obsidian Dragon and the normal dragon, created by Kragtast.
You better not be trollin. As soon as you can, pics would be a nice thing to do. (F2)
I have seen many say "I'll make dragons" and never do >_> I just want a little convincing proof somehow you know?
But if you are, i'll be well ready on hoping to see it.
Edit 1: I hate you -.- I realize dragons are tendingly powerful. But you can't even get close enough to one without having your WORLD being nuked. Ok I understand the meaning of a challenge but this is a little out of hand.
Edit 2: But at least YOU one person decided to make dragons. ... But I will not be using this mod until the difficulty is lowered by some level. Making it IMPOSSIBLE to fight back isn't going to amuse me.
Edit 3: I noticed a crap load of bones everywhere.

I'm glad I made a backup long ago. But still, I knew lava gardens were dangerous. But then again I didn't expect a explosion to happen to my house's garden next to my lava xP
Edit 5: I'm not mad. xD
Edit 6 - Suggestion:
These little devils seem interesting, but how about they be placed in the nether? or be found more populated in the nether? I'm not fully sure but yeah. And I'm still glad you decided to do this mod.
Aslo I randomally got errors on my batch file (I didn't know what it was but it happened alot and I gained a little lag)
But it didn't crash Mc just lagged it a little by the constant errors.
This is not the best picture for showing off the dragon, but perhaps it will stop the inevitable "PICTURE OR ITS A LIE" posts. I totally understand you guys. The picture has been relocated to the main post.
You have a point about the difficulty. And that brings up the point about backups. Thanks. I will lower the difficulty. Thanks for the feedback everyone!
Ha Ha Ha. Sorry about the house. :smile.gif: Those dragons are as strong as an army of creeepers. Thanks for the response, RyuuDZ. I realize why you got the errors, i forgot to include the texture for the dragon, :sad.gif:. Sorry and thanks for catching that. I like the idea of them only spawning in the nether. I will look into that. It makes it kinda hard for me to test, as the MCP test worlds are Legit, so it would take me a while to start testing. I forgot to mention that they drop bones similar to how chickens drop eggs. The backstory is that they eat anything and spit out the bones. Perhaps i will add that later. I going to PM Dr. Zhark for help on a lot of these things. Hopefully he will respond.
-- Edit --
Oh and BTW. Their aim really sucks, so you should be able to kill them. Not to mention ride them once and you stop them from ever attacking you.
I don't really understand what you mean. If you are talking about how do you install this mod, just use the search engine of your choice. There are millions of threads telling people how to install mods like this.
To save you and everyone else the trouble, though, I will answer this question ONCE. I will ignore anyone else who asks. I only know how to do it on Windows though. I use a Linux and A Windows, but i just dislike Mac's. I don't have Minecraft on my Linux so just google "how to install mods on a ____" where ____ is your OS. Anyway, For Windows, open Windows Explorer ( The program you use to find anything on your system) then type %appdata% into the location thingy. Navigate to .minecraft, then to bin. Backup the minecraft.jar you see there. Then open it with the archive program of your choice, (i use 7-ZIP, google it) then drag all the files from my mod to the jar. DELETE META-INF and you are good to go. Exit the program and start minecraft.

Not a problem xD I think this backup being destroyed will give me a new way to build the house again.
And secondly I'm glad I could help. Dragons is one thing all of us secretly wanted but didn't want to make request topics of it because the fact that there are too many.
Also once you are done with this, I have a few more suggestions xP but I'm trying to enjoy what's being given now lol.
But here's a few ideas for the future if you gain the extra time.
- Types of dragons. Example: Bigger dragons - slower but stronger and more health. And could drop dragon eggs like a 35% chance.
- Element type dragons. Example: Ice dragon, sand dragon(?) idk.
Sorry people, but its not compatible with ModLoader yet. It requires no other mods. I can't figure out how to map spawnlist in MCP, so for now, no spawnlist. And Ryuu, You have a lot of good ideas. Don't stop. I will see what i can do.
You right click to ride them. When you get on them, they think, "Friend!" and don't attack you. I'm going to make it harder, and make them controllable, but for now, thats all. Making them controllable is something i'm waiting on DrZhark to (hopefully!) help me with.
you need to make it so you have to put a saddle on them just like a horse on mo creatures. it would have the same crafting recepie and be compatible with horses too
The saddle thing is a must, i agree. But the compatiblity with horses, thats not possible unless DrZhark changes His code. I can't do anything about that. I do have an idea for a saddle though.

Where is leather. Feedback on this idea? And what did you think about the mod in general, fat eskimo 97?

If you insist.
- Use the mob spawner power to create a dungeon powered by a dragon spawner block that allows to have a lower leveled dragons to be there and somehow alternate the power of the chests to be like "...woah" leveled goodies to be in there.
- A type of dragon: Water dragon. Obviously can either be able to breath under water or be on water. But also able to walk near the land. I suppose it would spawn near beaches and sand/water-ish areas. (To let it shoot attacks like blue fire to give a classical surprise)
- Obviously flying dragons. Maybe somehow spawned in high mountain areas. Let these be around strong as a adult dragons. They could fly, and shoot fire attacks.
- Breeding dragons? If you are the lucky jacka**, you could be able to have a small ranch of dragons.
- Dragons in a myth have been known to attack sheep and cows and things.
- A few types of dragons COULD be non aggressive towards the player unless you p**s it off (or get like 1-3 blocks near it) Maybe let these be the children dragons.
- Dragon scales custom item? From depending on color and power of the dragon, you could use to make stuff (pick axes, armor , etc) to have way more powerful stuff. (maybe like 1 level higher than diamond for boss dragons)
- Boss leveled dragons. Perhaps found deep near bottom of the earth (maybe look into depth finding) or just place them in the nether by rare finds. Power to fly and walk. Maybe able to surround you with fire (set fire levels at player's location at relative terms) This one should drop at least 6 dragon scales because it's power and HP.
- If you tame a water dragon, you should be able to surf perhaps (like dolphins perhaps)
- To fight a dragon, to make your quest easier, to have a dragon of your own (fight fire with fire? xp)
- Dragon nest block: Rarely found in the world, but spawns baby dragons (non aggressive unless attacked) attack low but you could tame them easier than kid dragons.
If you need help by controlling dragons. I suggest speaking to the guy that created controllable pig mounts. I'm sure he may help you.

hmm... The price on it has a number to it I see. I presume that would be a decent price to have a mighty dragon to your side. But then do try to make sure it doesn't despawn though.
