About this Mod

Explore the wild world of How to Train Your Dragon through immersive, naturally generated dragon nests scattered across your Minecraft world. HTTYD Dragon Nests adds handcrafted lairs, hidden dens, rare dragon eggs, and biome-specific structures inspired by iconic dragons such as the Night Fury, Monstrous Nightmare, Hideous Zippleback, and Skrill.

Each nest is designed around the dragon’s behavior and habitat, ranging from volcanic caverns and toxic jungle dens to frozen storm peaks and hidden obsidian caves. The mod focuses on atmospheric exploration, environmental storytelling, and rewarding discovery, making every nest encounter feel unique and memorable.

Every dragon has a nest that spawns in specific boimes such as:
Lightfury:Birch forest
Zippleback:Jungles
Skrill:Snowey plains

Frequently Asked Questions

IOB Nest server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge 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 IOB Nest compatible with forge?

IOB Nest officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.18.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with IOB Nest – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if IOB Nest 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.
