dino monster
Dino Monster adds a set of large prehistoric and fantasy creatures, including Indominus Rex, Neco Arc and Spinofaarus, to Minecraft 1.20.1 on Forge.
What it does
The mod places a collection of creatures into the world, among them the Indominus Rex, Neco Arc, Megalosaurus and Spinofaarus. Each creature is built on the Geckolib animation library, which Dino Monster requires alongside Forge. Client and server both need the mod, so every player on a server that runs it must install it as well. Files are published for Forge 1.20.1 only, and the latest build is 1.0.1, released 2025-10-24 under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, which is open source.
Key features
Four named creatures
The Indominus Rex, Neco Arc, Megalosaurus and Spinofaarus are among the mobs that roam the world.
Geckolib animations
Creatures use Geckolib for their animations, so their movement is driven by that library.
Mixed creature roster
The creature set combines dinosaur-style and fantasy designs in one collection of mobs.

What the author says
this mod you will find four mobs such as indominus rex, neco arc, megalosaurus and spinofaarus. In this mess of meaningless combinations of creatures and some from series and films, I "made" this mod in my time, to see how my creatures would act in this beautiful virtual world (GECKOLIB SUPPORT)
