DragonMine Z: Auras+
by facub80418
DragonMine Z: Auras+ lets players add custom auras to DragonMine Z through resource packs, with models and textures for each aura form.
What it does
The mod is a resource-pack extension for the DragonMine Z - Dragon Ball in Minecraft! mod, which must be installed alongside it. Custom auras are defined by files in a resource pack under assets, in a dragonminez folder, with geo models placed in a race folder and textures placed in a ki folder. Each aura is matched to a value called auraType, and every model and texture file related to that aura must start with the matching prefix, for example divine.
Two model types are used. Around the player sits the kiaura model, which wraps the whole figure, while the kiaura2 model is an expanding wave that periodically rises beneath the feet. A custom aura needs both files, and a missing file falls back to the base mod's model. Textures should be drawn in specific areas to avoid texturing errors, and grayscale textures avoid coloring issues that depend on the aura color.
The mod is licensed under All rights reserved and is not open source. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, with 1.1.9 as the latest file, dated 2026-03-18.
Key features
Custom aura forms
Players can add custom aura forms to DragonMine Z by placing files in a resource pack, with no change to the mod's code.
Prefix-based matching
Files are linked to an aura through a shared prefix matching its auraType, so one aura's files do not affect another.
Two model types
A kiaura model surrounds the player, and a kiaura2 model adds an expanding wave under the player periodically.
Base model fallback
If one of the two model files is missing, the base mod's model is used for that part of the aura.

How it compares
DragonMine Z: Layers+ is Forge 1.20.1 and client and server, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and is not open source. Unofficial DMZ Addon is also Forge 1.20.1 and client and server, and is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. GeoAnim is Forge 1.20.1 and client-side only, under All rights reserved, so it adds nothing on a server.
