Everything in one place

Start with the basics or jump to the system you need.

Getting started

Install ArdaNPCs 1.1.0, create your first NPC and learn the essential controls.

NPC controls and editor

Names, equipment, combat, patrols, factions, respawn, templates and administrator commands.

Appearance, skins and models

Set a humanoid skin and cape, import your own PNGs, and choose an entity model from Minecraft or an installed mod.

Dialogues and quests

Build your first quest, branching conversations and stories with multiple objectives, conditions and rewards.

NPC scripts

Events, common API and ready-to-use examples for healing, conditions, quests and mail.

Scripted items and blocks

Program a focus or anchor, bind programs, use events and manage instances.

Shops, mail and companions

Configure shops, banks and teleporters. Send mail with attachments and hire NPC companions.

Troubleshooting and backups

Check permissions, saving, appearance and script diagnostics, and learn where world data lives before updating or restoring a backup.

Models from other mods?

You can choose entities from installed mods. Appearance depends on their renderer; test custom animations in your modpack. The NPC keeps the systems of ArdaNPCs.
