This mod adds rideable Yoshies to the game in some levels.

When you ride a Yoshi, you can travel a little faster and flutter jump across gaps. You can also get inifinite flutter jumping with a wing cap.

Unfortunately, right now, Yoshies can't eat enemies, and neither can you ride one underwater.

Yoshies will also use the color palette of whoever rides them, and can share the rider's Metal Cap. Though they can't have the Vanish Cap yet.

This mod also comes with two commands:
  • /YOSHI_DEBUG [on|off|host-only]Toggles a debug mode where ya can spawn stuff from the mod with a D-Pad:
    • D-Pad Up: Yoshi Egg
    • D-Pad Right: Yoshi Nest
    • D-Pad Down: Yoshi
  • /yoshi-model [on|off] Toggle between the models in the mod, and the in-game vanilla model.
This mod also has a mini API that can place spawn nests around levels in ROM hacks (and only in ROM hacks for now).

(Example will be uploaded later.)

Incredibly enjoyable. I especially love the ways in which the game can be cheesed; but at the tradeoff of being a faster and more slippery experience.

My only request would be to somehow include the SMW detail of the music gaining bongos while you're riding the Yoshi.
Very natural feeling addition to the game, my Dad & I enjoyed it (his only complaint was the lack of the tongue attack, but he enjoyed the mod nonetheless).

Bugs:
* Sometimes when dismounting (crouch launching off) a Yoshi in multiplayer the Yoshi will stick to your player model for other people, it'll be in the spot where you left it for you, but they can't see it there. (in other words they see you wearing the Yoshi like an inflatable costume, & you see the Yoshi parked, but the Yoshi is completely gone {or maybe invisible?} for them).
* Sometimes the Yoshi won't change color for other players (those who aren't the one riding it) so you'd see your colors (or default colors?) on someone else's Yoshi at times.
Fun mod. Hopefully no abuses the fact you gain height when getting off of yoshi.....
