Replaced hippogriff with dragon

DragonOgryff

🦅➡️🐉 This mod replaces the **Hippogriff** mount model in "Hogwarts Legacy" with the majestic **Hebrides Black Dragon**! Not only that, but it also offers the optional ability to replace the Thestrals with dragons.

✨ Core Functions

  • **Model Replacement**: Completely replaces the original Hippogriff with a beautiful dragon model.
  • **Animation Update**: Replaced all related flight and action animations to make the dragon's posture more realistic.
  • **Independent modules**: Hippogriff version and Thestral version are two completely independent modules. You can choose to install only one, or install both, and combine them freely!
  • **Optional models**: Provides multiple optional dragon models to meet your different aesthetics.

🐉 Version update highlights

The module has undergone continuous optimization and fixes:

  • **1.1**: Fixed textures and some crash issues, and added offspring dragons.
  • **1.2**: Updated player riding positions and fixed possible errors in the paddock.
  • **1.3**: Made some bug fixes and added 3 optional models. (Attempted to teach dragons to swim but failed, now they will not enter water of their own accord).
  • **1.5**: Adjusted the Hungarian Horntail model, mainly improving the visual clarity of the facial area.
  • **1.7**: **The dragon finally learned to "swim"! **(Although probably not exactly a standard swimming position). At the same time, the Thestral's landing movements also became more graceful.
  • **1.8**: Successfully compatible with game updates!

⚠️ Description of known situations

The author frankly pointed out that in order to adapt to the dragon's slender body, the module is still being improved:

  • **Riding Position**: The player's riding position may still be slightly unnatural.
  • **Animation Connection**: Some animations are temporary placeholders, and the author is working on a better solution.
  • **Speed ​​Switch**: Due to the length of the dragon animation, there will be a slight animation lag when changing speed.

🛠️ Installation and Uninstallation

**Installation method**:

  • Extract the downloaded compressed package directly to your **game root directory**.

**Uninstall method**:

Go to the `...\Phoenix\Content\Paks\~mods` folder in your game directory and delete the corresponding files:

  • **Hippogry Version**: Removed 3 files named `zDragonOgryff_P` and `zDragonOgryffM_P`.
  • **Thestral Version**: Removed 3 files named `zDragonOgryffT_P` and `zDragonOgryffTM_P`.

Ride a dragon, soar in the sky over Hogwarts, and experience a completely different journey into the magical world! 🚀

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
