About this Mod

AA is an expansion for the Isle of Berk mod which adds many additional dragons. This is facilitated by Nord_Act's Isle of Berk Variant Loader, which allows us to add remodelled variants of existing dragons without replacing those which are already present. This means, however, that abilities may be mismatched.

Configs must be extracted from the zip in which they are contained and installed as per usual config methods.

Bug reports and support forums are to be found in our Discord server.

AA is a project made by LuckiestLycan, Mqzikeen, SakuraBabochka, Gecko_sauce, DragonTamer, Blue, and Mako. It contains assets by Ness, Immersed, VLS, Chrys, and Will (of the NBD (New Berk's Dawn) team), and MazingA, GrayDoesn'tExist, Roar, SomeGuy, and MilqyWay (of the NBD community). It also contains variant designs by AmiEpyk, JayJay, DragoFRN, Suki, GrayDoesn’tExist, LIA, Mittens, and Skeley-Arts. Our license is and shall remain ARR, to protect these assets of which we have use and distribution permissions but not ownership. Most dragon models use IoB models as a base due to hardcoded rigging dependencies making it impractical to scratch model. AA does not claim to have made these models, they were created by the IoB team and now belong to NBD. We are permitted use of these IoB base assets provided we remain as an addon to IoB and/or NBD and do not claim to have made them. These credits may change as necessary. They will always be correct to the most recent release of this modpack.

Frequently Asked Questions

Archipelago Additions server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong datapack version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.18.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Archipelago Additions compatible with datapack and forge?

Archipelago Additions officially supports datapack, forge for Minecraft 1.18.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Archipelago Additions – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Archipelago Additions consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
