They are all recolours of the red dragon. There's a colour for each continent. So maybe we could add the fire dragon to mainland, and add green dragon to yssam, yellow to ruby, black to cairn and maybe add a white version to niffleheim.

Yeah. I'd like to see some regional stuff out of those dragons, really add some flavour. We could add Q5 and Q4 Cinder to Ruby Dragon, Q5 and Q4 Horn to Yssam, Q5 and Q4 Sparkstone to Cairn and Q5 and Q4 Hoarfrost for Niffleheim, because everyone fucking loves Hoarfrost. Or maybe Tooth, whatever's most useful.

That would be great. There is a lot of potential to do stuff like this that just makes the game a little better without Fucking it up. Wouldn't be controversial to anyone to add regional dragons I wouldn't think.

With a low drop rate twice a day, it'll still be a while until we see any, but at least they are possible.

I have the 2003 files from CVS and everything... I dont think it has an executable though? Its just all the source code.

Purely out of interest, whilst the data files for these alternate dragon skins are in the game already, does the spawning mechanism require the client to be edited or would we be able to get the server to tell the client about mob spawns? As far as i'm aware this would require a 'hack' patch of sorts, similar to what was needed for 1.12.x vanilla wow servers back in the day. Anyone know?

Wouldn't be controversial to anyone to add regional dragons I wouldn't think. I agree with this. From what I read here there is a lot of stuff we could add content wise from the tools they left in the box which wouldn't endanger the game. More 'unique' mobs. Populating some cool unused areas with mob spawns, land towers and maybe modified village location/set ups etc
