Alright, so I'm troubleshooting my Skyrim install right now, trying to get everything working proper (been getting a lot of random crashes since yesterday, I think I know what it is but need to figure it out.)

Alright, got my problems figured, no more crashes. But, I don't think Dovahkriid is completely compatible, with v6 Beta, the Dragon Lord near Riverwood doesn't seem to get any of the abilities from DCO at all. Not sure why.

I have DD, MD, Dovahkriid and DCO installed, the only things that affect Dragons. The rest of my loadout is mostly cosmetic mods.

Thanks for the reports Sepherose! Interesting that you are having these issues, so keep trying things out and posting what you find if you feel so inclined . I really don't have many reports about specific compatibility or lack thereof regarding DCO and Mighty Dragons and/or Dovahkriid Dragon Lords (mostly vague stuff like .. yeah it works with blah blah dragon mod, great job! and that's it) so I'm reaching out to other monkeys to see if they have any wisdom. If possible, try to eliminate any other mods that might skew the results to make sure we pinpoint the issue and if I get more reports of the same issues from other uses, then I will consider downgrading the mod(s) to a less than compatible status.

Well, what it seems in the time I Have been playing is this:

Dovahkriid-

-The Dragon Lords are not affected by DCO at all in my experience, although they show up and play out just fine except that they have no landing/flying/walking sound effects. It won't break your game, but true compatibility isn't happening right now even with a bashed patch.

-DCO seems to break Dovahkriid's script that prevents them from spawning until after the quest where you witness Alduin raise one of his officers from the dead. I narrowed this with multiple new characters narrowing it down to being caused by DCO. The break occurs in a way that causes the Dragon Lords to spawn right from the get go.

Jills of Akatosh-

-The same first issue seems to occur with the Jills as with Dovahkriid.

Mighty Dragons:

- Narrowing it down to just DCO and MD, the MD introduced Dragons are hit or miss, as I stated with my first post. Still fightable as with Dovahkriid, but full compatibility, like Dovahkriid and Jills of Akatosh, will likely require a hand made compatibility patch for each of them (just my opinion there, I could be wrong).

Deadly Dragons-

- Full compatibility (so far) for me no matter the settings.

So that is my report so far, other than that, V6 Beta is runnin great for me with one exception although I don't know how this could be fixed and it is for the most part cosmetic. The dragons now will clip through things a LOT more, this has led to me having characters taking in impromptu trip on dragon back and then promptly being dropped from high altitude. Neat, but visually jarring.

Dovahkriid - your issues are noted and since I don't have much info about it anyway, I'll downgrade it until we get more reports for or against it being compatible. Mighty Dragons - same thing here, never really had many reports on it anyway, downgraded to 'pending' - Drag says he's checkin' it out too. Jills of Akatosh - I'll need a few more people to report before this makes the list, but awesome find - I think I'll check it out myself if I get some time. Just about all the flying monkeys use Deadly Dragons, so I am actually going to upgrade that one somehow. Good to have another positive report for it though I noticed the dragons clipping and flying very low to the ground as well. I figured this was pretty much unavoidable and Apollo confirmed that we're going to have to live with it. This is more of an issue with Skyrim and so DCO just sort of has to work around it as best it can. No big deal though and it doesn't happen for me that often.

Alright, glad that this flying monkey could be of assistance.

for me, I still don't know why, but v6 DCO is not compatible  the older versions are but not the new one with my mods, i have deadly dragons on and that is the only other dragon mod i have, I don't think that its it though, I am currently running v5 DCO and im able to play the game, but when i try to download the new version 6, my NMM starts to crash and my game will not load.

[bigrusski]

sorry, I solved my own question, i just read the installation guide, and you guys mentiond that I need to run DCO BEFORE Dance of Death  that fixed my problem, sorry for the interruption.

courtesy of korun from the main forum:

Skyrim 1.9, DG, E-MD + DD v 6.3.5, DCO v6

if E-MD or DD, DCO works flawlessly, 0 problem
if E-MD and DD, DCO choose DD as the "master" and E-MD get back to vanilla

Thks for the mod, enjoy it in every Dragon's fight

That... is interesting to know. Maybe i can figure out a way to wrestle the two into submission and get it working. I'll let you know.
