Where Vikings Build and Dragons Fly

The CurseForge modpack for Astro's Lounge's How to Train Your Dragon world. Download the ZIP and import it in CurseForge — don't unpack it into your mods folder by hand.

Import the ZIP through CurseForge. Extracting it into .minecraft/mods will break your client.

Forge 1.18.2GeckoLibClient

Crash Spawn Reset

v1.0.7

After a crash (not a clean /stop), moves players who were online to the world spawn on next boot by editing playerdata. Remembers nearby tamed Isle of Berk dragons so they can try /crashbring. Saves the old location and lets them return with /crashback.

The route to launch

1

Download the modpack ZIP above (Astros-Lounge-HTTYD-Modpack.zip).

2

Open the CurseForge App and go to the Minecraft tab.

3

Choose Create Custom Profile → Import, then pick the ZIP directly. Don't extract it first.

4

Let CurseForge install every required mod — a few minutes.

5

Launch from the new profile. Allocate 8–10 GB RAM if you can.

6

Connect to play.mc.dragons.astroslounge.com.

Troubleshooting

CurseForge won't import the ZIP

Select the ZIP file itself, not an extracted folder. Re-download if it's incomplete — the root of the ZIP needs to contain manifest.json.

Mods fail to download during import

Check your connection and retry. If CurseForge stalls, disable any VPN or filter, then update or re-import the profile.

"Mod mismatch" when joining

Re-import the official ZIP from this page so your client mods match the server, then reconnect.

Crash or out of memory

Raise allocated memory to 8192 MB+ in the CurseForge profile settings, and confirm you're on Forge 1.18.2.

I extracted the ZIP into .minecraft/mods

That's the wrong method. Remove those jars, then import the ZIP through CurseForge instead.

Can't find the server

Add it manually: Multiplayer → Direct Connection / Add Server → play.mc.dragons.astroslounge.com.
