New Unique Horse: Boneless the Headless Horse

Boneless the Headless Horse


No one quite knew where he came from or how he found his way to the island of Rose's Ember. It didn't make sense, and it was a little disconcerting. 

He was a horse with no head. Somehow he came to be known as Boneless. Some folks thought the name didn't quite fit. Some folks thought he didn't quite fit.

But none of the other magical horses thought that at all. Auria, also being new to the island, was the first horse to welcome him, and after that everyone wanted to be his friend. Boneless soon found himself quite busy on Rose's Ember. He was invited to many games, and it turned out not having a head was particularly useful when it came to jousting competitions. 

Before long, word made its way to Ivar the Inventor, the Scions of Vyrsa, the Council of Seventeen, and many other philosophers, professors of magic, curiosity seekers, and more. Soon, Boneless found himself enlisting his friends to help hide him from all the curious people.

Eventually that all passed, and only the occasional visitor came in search of our headless friend.

And that's how he liked it.

He still talks and sends letters to some of them, though. Ivar has promised a special invention or two, just for him. And though Boneless has not yet met Doctor Ogrebaz, many wonder how so much time has passed without the mad doctor making an appearance... and causing some sort of trouble.

In any case, it's wonderful to have Boneless on the island of Rose's Ember, and wonderful to have him as our newest addition to Wings, Horns, and Hooves: The Ultimate Unicorn Mod!

Check him out by naming one of your magical horses "Boneless" and welcome him to your Minecraft world!

New Public Release: 2.0.0 of The Ultimate Unicorn Mod! And 2 *New* Mods!

Today I'm releasing version 2.0.0 of Wings, Horns, and Hooves: The Ultimate Unicorn Mod!

Here are the release notes:
  • Updated in-game unicorn guide.
  • Fixed a texture issue with pegasus wings that was making stray lines.
  • Fixed a problem with the wing buffet animation.
  • Added power settings dialog back in, so you can turn on and off powers as you like.
  • Added the horn slot for putting some items (like squishy, puncturable ones) on top of unicorn horns.
  • Added back in the Horn of Throwing custom unicorn power
  • Made the mod work with the new Horse Equipment API, and also the New Horse Equipment Mod.
    • This means horseshoes, horse helms, and wingtips each have a slot in the horse equipment screen that activates if the New Horse Equipment Mod is loaded, and these items are usable by magical horses.
    • Future mods can use the Horse Equipment API to add equipment that is usable in The Ultimate Unicorn Mod.
  • Fixed numerous other bugs.
You can go download it at CurseForge (and Modrinth coming soon)!

Also, I am releasing two new mods:


1 - Kane Apollo's Horse Equipment API

This mod adds the ability to create new equipment mods that can work with the magical mounts in The Ultimate Unicorn Mod. It's also now a dependency of The Ultimate Unicorn Mod.

I am making it open source and providing documentation on the API so anyone can create new equipment in their mods that work with the mods I'm creating.

You can get it at CurseForge (and Modrinth coming soon)!

2 - The New Horse Equipment Mod

This mod adds a bunch of new equipment for both vanilla Minecraft horses and all the magical mounts in Wings, Horns, and Hooves: The Ultimate Unicorn Mod!

Here are the release notes:
  • Adds new horse equipment slots to vanilla horses in the horse menu screen.
  • Adds new horse equipment items to Minecraft that are usable by vanilla horses by placing them in the above slots.
  • Adds new horse armor items to Minecraft: Emerald and obsidian horse armors, invincible horse armor
