You can find a Fabric version of this mod here: Dual Riders
Have you ever wished to be able to ride a horse while your friend is sitting behind to back you up in battles? No??
Well, here is the mod anyway!
This mod is a simple little experiment i did for fun. All it does is allowing two players to mount the same horse together.
Features of the mod
- When a player is riding on a horse, a second passenger can now join the ride by right clicking on the same horse
- Only the player sitting in front has control over the horse movement and is able to open the horse inventory
- The player sitting behind can freely turn around and open the player inventory, this may prove very handy in battles
- The player sitting behind is not able to interact with the horse movement, this means you cannot inadvertently stop the horse by hitting the jump key
- When the first passenger dismounts (or gets killed or...well, you got it) control of the horse is automatically switched to the second passenger
- The first passenger of the horse now renders transparent from the second passenger point of view (when in first person view). This also works with boats!
Notice: for very obvious reasons this mod is mostly enjoyable only when playing with other people. This mod is also required on the client.
I would pref 1.12.2 too, but no matter this a nice idea!
my gets disconnected every time in the boat
In reply to wachecheiro:
i will look into that
Found a way to allow a non-Player to ride a Horse: the Carry On mod. Remove the Horse's ID from the "forbiddenStacking" blacklist inside Carry On's server config, so you can stack an entity on a Horse. When you ride a Horse with a stacked entity, the latter would become the passenger.
You'll also need the Dismount Entity mod to remove the entity. Just grabbing the entity is impossible (which's prolly why stacking on Horses is disabled by default).
Alternatively, as mentioned in my prev. comment, you can use the command /summon horse ~ ~ ~ {Tame:1,Owner:<your username>,Passengers:[{id:<ID of mob rider>}]} to summon a Horse with a mob rider.

Nice find!
If only 1.12.2!
In reply to Ski_Z:
Agreed! Alot of new awsome mods are not in 1.12.2 and alot of great older mods are not in the new version (like just enough potions) which devides the community into pre 1.14 and post 1.14 and now it even more devided by 1.16 :(
finally
I'd like there to be an option to deactivate transparency as a second passenger. also one version for ice and fire or other mods similars.(don't listen to me xD you already wrote it)
In reply to ernestopro59:
There is already a config option to disable transparency ;)
In reply to Beethoven92: Thanks for clarifying, I like to see my friend xD, the game feels more realistic.
Make it compatible to ice and fire so you can ride 2 players on one dragon !!!
In reply to sklman:
That is my plan :D
In reply to Beethoven92:
Yay!! I look forwards till it (:
Wow, you make one edit and suddenly Curseforge marks your entire post as SPAM. Rip!
Anyways here's the original Post in two parts
Part 1
Part 2
And again I'm sorry if the idea/suggestion is me asking too much, I just got a bit excited by the thought and potential this mod opens the possibilities to, that I might have gotten a bit carried away here.
In reply to White_Blaze:
So, first of all, thank you for all the suggestions. Actually i have already started reworking this mod to make it possible to have a backseat on (potentially) every entity that can be mounted by at least one player. This could lead, as you already suggested, to the possibility of having two players riding a single dragon or hyppogryphs, just to make a few examples. The one thing i would like to mantain tough is the extreme simplicity and minimalism of this mod, so i feel like your point 4) , while being an interesting concept will drive this to far from the basic idea. Next!
Point 1) well..my original idea :D nothing more to say about that, except that in the first iteration of the mod there was a double saddle required for the second passenger to join. My idea was that the double saddle could be enchanted in order to allow villagers to be carried on the horse. The idea was cool and balanced but..due to the way minecraft handles the horse stuff a double saddle would have caused too many incompatibilities, thats why i decided to remove it.
Point 2) this may be an interesting concept, but as it is right now it feels like it would be very annoying for the player to have the villager knocked off at random, also this does not provide any sort of challenge, being based on RNG..it may be viable if there was a way to prevent the villager from falling off that would require at least some work to be done by the player.
Point 3) this was one of my initial ideas, it was extended also to other players mounting the horse..gave up on it because i realized it would take away most of the fun of this mod...did not think about restricting that only to villager transportation though! I may seriously consider this
Poin 5) i like this, but it is not really that difficult to get a donkey or llama, so this is still kinda unbalanced
In reply to Beethoven92:
your very welcome! and i'm glad you enjoyed the feedback :)
I tried summoning a tamed horse with a chicken rider via the summon command, and I was able to ride the same horse with the chicken as the passenger (in the second player's place).
Any way to make this feature official: allow an animal to ride with you on the same horse (like on boats)? I'd LOVE to explore around with my pet doggo on horseback. :D
The command I used: /summon horse ~ ~ ~ {Tame:1,Owner:<your username>,Passengers:[{id:chicken}]}
In reply to AtheoAng3l0_New:
Mmm i think that i could make it so when you right click a certain mob while riding the horse it will make the mob mount the horse behind you...probably that could work only for mobs like wolves, chicken and other few ones..i should not work with (for example) zombies, zombie villagers, villagers etc..because that would be op and unbalanced
In reply to Beethoven92:
I tried doing it with the Carry On mod, which let me grab and stack mobs with empty hands, but the mod's preventing me from stacking a mob on a horse. You may wanna look that mod up as a reference. In Survival mode, you can only carry entities that your player character would believably be able to carry, like small and medium-sized animals. In Creative, tho, you can carry almost any entity incl. Iron Golems and even the Wither, which makes sense since you're a god in Creative haha.
Btw, you can summon an untamed horse with a chicken rider, but the horse would shake the latter off after a few seconds as if the chicken is trying to tame it lol.
