🎉 Dogies v1.0.0 - Initial Release

Welcome to the first release of Dogies! This mod transforms your Minecraft wolves into real companions with personality, style, and heart.


✨ New Features

🐕 Wolf System

  • Random Health — Every wolf spawns with 2-10 HP (persistent, saved to NBT)
  • Hunger System — Dogs need to eat every 3 minutes or they starve
  • Hunger Warning — Custom PNG icon appears above their head when hungry
  • Friendly Fire Protection — You can no longer accidentally kill your own dog

🎾 Toys & Play

  • Dog Ball — Bow-like charge mechanic, throw it and your dog fetches it back
  • Nearest tamed wolf responds to fetch
  • No teleporting during fetch (walks naturally)
  • Achievement: Fetch, FETCH, FETCH!

🍖 Food System

  • Dog Treat — Fully heals, resets hunger, grants Speed II for 10s
  • Dog Eat Cup — Placeable feeding bowl with fill/empty states
  • Dogs automatically walk to the nearest filled bowl when hungry
  • Custom 3D block model
  • Achievement: Who's a Good Boy?

🎩 Cosmetic Hats

  • Axolotl Hat — Cute aquatic-themed hat with custom 3D model
  • Business Hat — Classic mafia-style black hat with red band
  • Hats are attached to the wolf's head bone (perfectly synced with animation)
  • Right-click to equip, Shift + Right-click to remove
  • Baby wolves get smaller hats automatically
  • Achievement: Who Wore It Better?

💀 Emotional Bonds

  • Dog Grief Effect — 60-second potion effect when your dog dies
  • Ghostly wolf sounds (howl, hurt, death) echo around you every 10 seconds
  • Sounds have fade-in/fade-out with low pitch for ghostly atmosphere
  • Ghost Dog — Invisible wolf spawns nearby, watching you from 15-25 blocks away
  • Approach it and it fades away with soul particles
  • Custom PNG effect icon in inventory

⚔️ Combat

  • Skeleton Bone Farming — Wolves (wild and tame) drop 1 bone per hit on skeletons
  • Works on Skeletons, Strays, and Wither Skeletons

🏆 Achievements (3 total)

🛠️ Technical Details

🐛 Known Issues
