Add support for mypaint? #42

Closed benrob0329 closed 6 years ago

benrob0329 commented 8 years ago

Mypaint is a really nice painting mod, but requires other mods to define paintable nodes.

It would make sense to add it as a soft dependancy and impliment something for stairsplus, and other nodes.

https://github.com/DonBatman/mypaint_extras/blob/master/mypaint_wood/init.lua seems like a good start.

I'll help where I can, but my lua knolage is limited as is my time.

Moreblocks adds already a large amount of nodes, and making all of those paintable would create an enormous amount of nodes.

If someone really wants to do this, it should best be done in a separate mod, e.g. moreblocks-mypaint, so that moreblocks and mypaint can not cause a few thousand nodes to be added unwittingly by anyone accidentally installing these mods together.

This issue is obsolete now since the advent of hardware texture coloring. See Colored Woods mod (and Unified Dyes) for examples of how that feature can be used in the context of stairsplus.
