Enable the Ender Dragon Reborn Model in Your Game

Prerequisites

Before you can see the new wyvern-style dragon, you need either Optifine or Entity Model Features installed. The resource pack alone won't display the custom model without one of these mods.

Enabling Custom Entity Models

1. Launch Minecraft and open Video Settings

2. Look for the Custom Entity Models option (location varies by mod):

• Optifine users: Find this in the main Video Settings menu
• Entity Model Features users: Check the mod's dedicated settings panel

3. Set Custom Entity Models to ON

4. Apply and close settings

Loading the Resource Pack

1. From the main menu, go to Options → Resource Packs

2. Click the folder icon to open your resource packs directory

3. Place the Ender Dragon Reborn pack file here

4. Return to the Resource Packs menu and move the pack from "Available" to "Selected"

5. Confirm the changes

Verify It's Working

Travel to the End dimension and approach the Ender Dragon. You should see the aggressive wyvern design instead of the default blocky model. If you still see the old dragon, double-check that Custom Entity Models is enabled in your video settings.
