This is a project to do well... Exactly what it says on the title.
The goal is to create a minecraft boss themed entirely after Neuro that the player will be able to fight and will also have custom loot associated with her. The ultimate goal is to integrate her seamlessly into the core progression of minecraft and best of all, do this all without any mods.
Wait... No mods? How?
Let me introduce you to Animated Java! A blockbench plugin that allows you to use a datapack along with a resourcepack to create "rigs" that you can animate and do all sorts of cool stuff! While yes, you do need the resourcepack, but considering there is no new entities or items it stays completely vanilla!
AJ(Animated Java) uses item displays with custom textures to animate and visualise the creators creations. The complexity level is very high and the project can go a long way before having a significant performance impact. I have made many projects and you'd be surprised with how efficient it is.
I originally started this project a few months ago where I infrequently posted upgrades on Reddit. This time however, I am planning on completely reworking the Boss AI system with a much more robust one. And now that I know that this place exists, and also with all the minecraft stuff happening this week, I decided that there is no better time to start.
