Month update #1

I would like to report that we are still very busy doing things. The skrill (while being a great dragon) is having some modeling complications that will be taken care of very soon. We have finished collecting sound for the night fury, and the mod will have its first implemented dragon in about a month. Remember : this is a wip mod, and this mod will not be out for a LONG time. I recommend you guys hang tight and be patient, possibly go familiarize yourself with your favorite dragon.

Now to answer common questions :

Will the dragons be hostile?

The idea right now is that there will be a variety of ways to tame different dragons. Although I am not personally one of the coders, I believe that dragon taming will work in a similar way to when you look at an enderman except that by looking at it, something else happens. I also think there will be a tame feature similar to ocelots, in that if you approach certain dragons with a fish you can tame them.

The hostility of the dragons will vary depending on A : how you play and B: however lacy wants them to attack. sieges on villages are not out of the question!

Will speeds be implemented :

Right at the moment, probably not. the reason is because the game has specific flying mechanics, there is limited things we could do with either ghasts, blaze, or enderdragon flight code. Not to mention it may conflict with their AI. So at the moment all dragons will have a limited flight speed (if at all).

Will they be tamable :

Dang right they will be.

How will the rp work?

The general concensus (idea from everyone involved) is that you will spawn in a world with a custom map or generator. You will have a series of objectives you can do similar to skyrim or pokemon. There will be various bosses, dragon types, and npcs. They will occasionally go to war with each other. Possibilities of two modes were suggested a while back : A past mode where the dragons are always hostile, night and day (but under some circumstances still tamable) , and a future mode where the dragons are friendly unless attacked. this is based off the story and movies timeline.

The map will most likely be a custom map, as some people may want dragons on one of their already made worlds. the idea of a add-on generator mod has not been ruled out. Consult the coders for information on that. That's this months update see you soon Dragon Tamers!
