About the Dracolotl mod

(Requires GeckoLib)

With this mod, you will gain the ability to hatch the Ender Dragon egg into the cutest apex predator, the Dracolotl. When you summon your Dracolotl, it will be bonded to you, and follow you into battle! Or stay at home like the rest of your minecraft pets.

Dracolotl — screenshot 3

To summon your Dracolotl, create a three block tall pillar with the dragon egg on top, then place either Obsidian or Bedrock one block away from each of the pillar's faces. Place an end crystal atop each of those blocks, and interact with the Dragon Egg to hatch it. Check the images tab for an example.

If you spawn a wild Dracolotl through a bucket or spawn egg from the creative mode menu (or commands), it can be tamed using Eyes of Ender.

Like Axolotls, Dracolotls can breathe underwater, and will play dead upon taking enough damage, causing hostile mobs to ignore it. When a Dracolotl recovers, it will give itself and its owner the Strength effect. The Dracolotl can also fly, and be interacted with by its owner using a bottle to obtain Dragon's Breath.

If a Dracolotl is fed a Chorus Flower, there is a very slim chance for it to produce a new Dragon Egg. By naming your Dracolotl 'Hellkite,' you can give it a special 'Red Dragon' skin.

How to install Dracolotl

With Millida Launcher

  1. Install Millida Launcher

    The launcher is free: download it at millida.net/launcher and sign in with any nickname.

  2. Click “Install” on this page

    The launcher opens and installs the mod for Minecraft 1.20.1–1.21.1 on Forge or NeoForge automatically, together with its dependencies: Geckolib.

  3. Launch the game

    A profile with it appears in the launcher: click “Play”.

Manually

  1. Install Forge or NeoForge

    The loader must match the game version of the mod file, for example Minecraft 1.21.1. After installing it, a separate profile appears in your launcher.

  2. Download the file for your version

    In the version list above, pick the file dracolotl-1.0.3-neoforge-1.21.jar (92 KB) for your game version and loader.

  3. Put it in the mods folder

    The folder is inside .minecraft (Windows: %appdata%\.minecraft\mods). If it does not exist, create it. Required dependencies go there too: Geckolib.

  4. Launch the loader profile

    Open “Mods” in the main menu: Dracolotl should be in the list.

On a server

  1. A server on Forge or NeoForge

    The mod only works on a server with the same loader and game version, for example 1.21.1.

  2. File goes into the server’s mods folder

    Stop the server, put the mod file into the mods folder and start the server again.

  3. Use the “To server” button

    On Millida Hosting, the button at the top of the page uploads the file to your server and restarts it for you.

Minecraft 1.21.1 runs on Java 21: with a different Java version the game may close right after launch.
