This is a mod that allows you to hatch previously useless dragon eggs. Once fostered and tamed, they'll be your faithful companion in all situations and, of course, can be used for a ride!

Some images of a tour through the sky:
Here's an image of two dragons on ground, one of them saddled:
They can also hover midair and look at you:
For less annoyance, dragons can be told to sit like cats and wolves by using a bone on them:

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is there going to be dragon armor? And when?
A: I don't know yet for sure. It heavily depends on the reusability of the inventory code of the horses, which is quite bad in the moment. It may improve in the future, though.
Q: Dragons need to breathe fire! When are they going to do that?
A: That could happen within the next few releases.
Q: How do I get dragon eggs other than from boss fights:
A: You can enable chest spawning in the DragonMounts.cfg file. Open it with a text editor and change "B:eggsInChests=false" to "B:eggsInChests=true". Or, if cheats are enabled, you can also simply
enter the chat command "/give dragon_egg".
Q: I tamed a dragon in singleplayer, but when I now try to interact with it, it says "This dragon doesn't follow your commands".
A: This could be an unresolved bug. As a workaround, you can use the chat command "/dragon tame" to reclaim the dragon.
Q: I'm a huge fan of ! Can you add for me?
A: This mod is supposed to be fandom-neutral so it's suitable for everyone. This also ensures consistency with Minecraft's look-and-feel. Therefore, I can't fulfill these special requests, sorry.
However, there are some WIP projects that may use the source code of this mod as a base for a fandom-based mod. Here are some examples:

Too bad I'm not skilled enough to reach the end >_<
but very nice!
Not liking how it edits so many base classes though.
Love the mod, just one suggestion though, maybe a way to stop and land ?
Well, right-clicking the dragon is currently the only way to stop and land. Animations for land movements would be nice, but are probably very difficult to implement, at least if it's supposed to look as good as flying.
And yes, it modifies some original classes, but mostly those that are related to the Ender Dragon and the egg. An upcoming Modloader version should resolve the conflicts with other mods.
Welcome,
For me all it would have to be is the dragon falling down to the floor, and just standing, i don't think it would have to be as nice as the flying, as long as i can put it in my backyard, it's all good :tongue.gif: .
Good to know there's a ModLoader version coming (:
Keep up the good work, i can guarantee this mod will become famous very soon (:
yeah its gonna be ULTRA FAMOUS!! and +1 :biggrin.gif: and youre backyard gonna explode lol also if you got a banner i will use it :biggrin.gif:
Well, not many people look through the WIP section much, ( good thing i did :tongue.gif: ) but once you put this into the Released mods section, a lot more people will look at this. trust me.
yes people dont care about WIP Mods some people care but almost millions of people will visit released mod section if you put this in the realeased mod section like many people more wil comment donwload suggest
But I managed to do an idle animation of Ender Dragons on ground:
I had to re-model and realign the legs for that, it would look very strange with the original leg proportions. :biggrin.gif:
Now if I had any idea how to make them actually walk, then this could become indeed an interesting mod. And I need to figure out how to fold the wings, it's impossible with the current code base...
Oh, and I ported the ImageGenerator class for MCP. Notch gracefully released it earlier when he textured the dragon model. Could be useful for others that are texturing complex models:

holy thats awesome !!!
Awesome, so when's v2 coming out, and how would i be able to land ? Just fly towards the floor or ?
Wait, does that mean you updated it already ? If so you should probably change the Download in the OP , cause it still says v1.
its still v1 updates or not cause im gonna download if its updated :biggrin.gif:
