[tobyplowy]

@D00Med also can you make me Owner of the project?

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med minetestia logo but you alredy got this

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med and for items i have

new default_clay_brick item empty bottle for potions (also can you add the withcraft mod to minetestia)

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med also can you add the new minecart model minecart.zip

[D00Med]

Wow you've been busy(I'm not going to stick around, just a quick comment) How do I make you the owner?

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med i dout know

[tobyplowy]

also most of the textures are recicles of my old texturepack

[tobyplowy]

also this flower pot flowerpot.zip

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med i made a simple fish mob model smallfish.zip

[D00Med]

Ok, I don't know how to either. I will put all this stuff into the game, but my priority is finishing my subgame first. Nice fish. There are two things I need to point out about your models. Firstly, when you make planes, duplicate them, but make them 0.01 units apart. That way they won't flicker. And the other thing is that 1 node = 1 blender unit, but for entities 1 node = 10 blender units(might not be exact but that's what I read). I think the grid in blender is about the size of one node.

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med were can I see blender units?

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med also I was thinking how will we make power interesting ( I would like to integrate it into building like windmills and steam but how will we make steam appear?)

[D00Med]

were can I see blender units?

good question. I think the basic cube in blender is 1x1x1 Hmm, I was thinking there would need to be a water supply in addition to coal as fuel, so maybe a pipe mod would be good. Steam is pretty easy, as long as there isn't too many nodes making steam, I can just make an abm with a particle spawner.

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med Yes a pipe mod would nice maybe a new furnace can be added? Like a steam furnace ( something that has the same concept as those old steam trains keep the coal going to keep power the power going) but this can get really annoying really fast so maybe Deeper Underground there can Be A more effective power source?

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med also I would like to expand the witchcraft mod

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med also is it hard to make new biomes?

[tobyplowy]

Deeper Underground there can Be A more effective power source?

Oil maybe?

[tobyplowy]

I'm going now see you tomorrow

[D00Med]

Yeah, a big crazy furnace with a boiler and pipes sticking out xD What do you have in mind for the witchcraft mod? It is to a degree, like it's a bit tricky getting the position right. Isn't oil a bit too advanced for steampunk? Ok then, bye

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med i did some small inprovements to the elephant and also the mammoth

elephant.zip mammoth.zip

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med

pirana.zip they shuld swim in grupes and be hostile (and they shuld try to kill the player) also they shuld only spawn in river water

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med

Yeah, a big crazy furnace with a boiler and pipes sticking out

was that a joke because it sounds good to me

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med also why is mobs_riverfish.png 32X and not 16x

[tobyplowy]

What do you have in mind for the witchcraft mod?

just add it for now and i will thik of it later

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med when you kill the small fish it shuld drop this and you can eat it to get a half point of hunger back and it also has a small shance to make you sick you can also bake it and if you bake it it will be 1 hunger point and you wount get sick

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med can you also add the stalagmites and stalactites and the cave ferns

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med i recolord the grass and dirt a bit

default_dirt default_grass_side default_grass

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med another underground matirial can be limestone

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med also if you kill the mammoth it shuld drop 4 brown wool

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med palmtree leaves

also can you make the palm trees look like this (NOTE i used retextured jungle tree textures for this example)

[tobyplowy]

i made a tombstone for the bones tombstone.zip

[tobyplowy]

default_mossycobble (recolor of your texture)

and moss (it shuld work and look the same as minecraft carpets) also it may need a beter texture

[D00Med]

was that a joke because it sounds good to me

No it wasn't a joke

also why is mobs_riverfish.png 32X and not 16x

because it is bigger. The palm tree leaves kind of look ok, but don't you think they look a little off at the corners and edges?

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med yes but I want them to de building blocks (I'm not sure if there is a better way)

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med

because it is bigger.

Well can you make the river fish model bigger so the pixels are not so detailed in comparison to the 16x16 blocks?

[D00Med]

Ok, fair enough, maybe then you could make leaves on the corners also? Yeah I will

[D00Med]

They are already supposed to be bigger but I messed up the code

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med

They are already supposed to be bigger but I messed up the code

Oh yeah you already typed that, my English is really bad sometimes :/

[D00Med]

should the small fish swim in rivers or in oceans?

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med also You said oil is not a good Idea, What Should Be used as a more powerful fuel than coal maybe a fantasy ore? Or maybe having a windmill or one of those things that hang in water to genarate power ( but that would Mean we use electricity)

[tobyplowy]

Oceans and rivers

[D00Med]

Ok, risky idea. Maybe there are magical crystals underground that have something to do with the dinosaurs running around. Maybe players could harvest them and use them as a power source, and also to revive dinosaurs from the fossils they find? I don't think I can do both

[tobyplowy]

I like that! It Sounds Unique and interesting.

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med also have you seen my small fish food item (it's so cute XD )

[D00Med]

Ok cool. If you don't mind, I'd like to make the crystals

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med OK

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med What color will they be blue?

[D00Med]

I was thinking that they could be multiple colors, but blue is good

[tobyplowy]

is this better?
