9.1 How Help or Make Content (AFTER 1.21.1)

Viktoria Ershova edited this page Jan 19, 2025 · 1 revision

■ Since version 1.21.1, very big changes have been made to the code related to content creation. All paths and logic of datapack creation were completely restructured.

● General Help

  • Localization mod
  • Reviews, guides, article additions, fanarts, and other content.
  • We get a lot of questions from players and about 90% of those questions are repeated. Feel free to answer other people's questions in discord if you know the answer.
  • Help in testing. We wouldn't know about problems if no one told us about them. Send all bug reports here.
  • Financial support - Patreon.

● Help from artists

Animation (GeckoLib + BlockBench)

  • New dragon emotions

Textures

  • More parts for the dragon editor
  • Alternative armor options for mods

● Help from programmers

■ I would be very grateful for help with fixing bugs and adding new features listed in Trello and Issues.

■ Note: I don't want to port to any new versions. Please, let's develop existing versions instead. The license does not allow any copies or ports without owner permission.

● Localization

■ Required: NotePad++.

Main language: English. If you have a desire to help translate Dragons Survival into your native language, feel free to do so! Check out the currently available languages here: Link.

■ Remember that we are constantly updating mods and localization will also require constant updates. We do not want to use automatic translation, because it leads to a large number of typos. If a translation has not been updated for a long time, we mark it as irrelevant and turn it off. Any help with this would be appreciated. Localization is very hard work! Get ready for the fact that you have to translate a lot of text.

  1. Download any file from this folder. We advise you to use the Russian translation. This is the developer's native language.
  2. Open it with a program (for example, NotePad++) and translate the text, which is in quotation marks.
  3. Note 1: Don't touch --food--
  4. Note 2: Do not use any characters like " or '
  5. Note 3: Never forget the commas at the end of each name
  6. Rename the file according to local code of your language. You can see list of all local code here: Minecraft Wiki
  7. You can check the translation inside the game using the resourcepack (assets\dragonsurvival\lang\en_us.json)
  8. After saving, just send this file for BlackAures#7759.
  9. An example of what a localization might look like.
