CustomNPC+
by KAMKEEL
With CustomNPC+ installed, server owners can place custom NPCs in a Minecraft 1.7.10 world and give them skins, animations, flight and combat behavior.
What it does
CustomNPC+ adds non-player characters that a world author can build and script for role-playing and storytelling. NPCs can use full skin textures, and can be given parts such as wings, fins, capes, horns and tails, while arms, legs, head or body can be hidden. A flying NPC option and an animation maker let creators control how characters move and act.
The mod also covers clone tags, filters, a name generator and combat enhancements for NPCs. It is published for Forge only, for the single game version 1.7.10, with 1.11.1 as the latest Forge file, last updated 2026-03-13. It runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it, and it is released under All rights reserved, so the license is not open source. Two catalog mods require it: CNPC+ DBC Addon and CustomNpcs-SortPlus.
