I'd like to request some changes to the meteorite mod. First off I'd like for the meteorite to be made of stuff other than just ore. Also, you could have more then one ore in the meteorite. Mainly I'd say add some rock to the ore at the least. Thanks for listening. Hope you have luck solving the hovering issue.
Sorry, but I've been looking and cannot find the fix for low mob spawns. I see it mentioned further up the page, but I cannot find it at all.
I was actually wondering, would it be possible to have the size of the meteorite be under the influence of a percentage?
For example, say I put the minimum block size of a meteorite at 1 and the maximum at 20, but have it so that larger meteorites are more rare than the smaller ones.
If you added that I would be a very happy man!
(Word to the wise, don't set the minimum and maximum size at 100, its some scary ****.)
Here's a video I made on my Twin Towers that shows how your elevators work. It's great, thanks for your mod so much!'!
Put your video into the first post :wink.gif:.

The fix for low mob spawns is in the latest version. However, if you're still having low mob spawns, then I didn't fix it right .

It actually goes by a normal distribution curve right now, with the middle sized meteor appearing more often. Might change that later though.
Meteorite v1.1.3 Minecraft: v1.2.6 SP
This will make the world spawn meteorites when in easy, normal, or hard with an increasing chance in each. Meteorites don't spawn in peaceful. They are flaming blocks that fall and make an explosion that creates fire in the immediate vicinity. It then creates a chunk of a random type of ore above the crater. The meteor tends to spawn and fall fairly far away from the player, so seeing a natural one while it is falling is rare. However, you'll know if one has fallen if there is a floating chunk of ore and a forest on fire.
This was requested in this thread.
There is a configuration file for this mod created in your .minecraft folder soon after you enter a world with this mod installed. You can configure meteorite rarity (higher number -> more rare), whether or not it sets fire upon impact, the rarity of each ore (by percentage, so 45 is 45%; please check to make sure it all adds up to 100 as the program will not check and you may not see one or more ores appearing), and the maximum and minimum radius of the meteor.
You can craft an item to summon a meteor near you. The recipe is:

It creates an item that uses the sprite of a snowball. When used, a meteor will land very close to you, possibly killing you.
If changing the settings file isn't working for you, delete it, start up minecraft, and wait for the mod to automatically generate a new one and try changing that one. If that still doesn't work, post the contents of your options file here.
Requires ModLoader. Download Here.
If you find any bugs, please post them.
something really fun to do is get like 50 of those and go underground and launch them all
Your elevator mod is essential for me now, so all my thanks for it, guy.
But after this latest update and my reinstallation of all my mods, it specifically causes minecraft to black screen after logging in.
And that's terrible.
What can I do to fix this?

It wasn't an update, it just redownloaded everything. I just reinstalled everything, and it worked perfectly for me. Did you clear meta-inf? Install any other mods?
Just an FYI: the 1.1.3 still seems to have an impact on spawning rates. I use 'mo creatures' and while I see both vanilla and the "extra" creatures from time to time, I'd say they are both much more rare. There don't appear to be any straightforward file conflicts, so my best uneducated guess is that the meteorite spawning function simply prevents the spawning calculation for mobs.
The down side is, as much as I love the Meteorite mod, having animals being so very rare is a disappointment, so I cannot play with both.
Any suggestions? would changing the rarity possibly give more leeway for the animals to show up?
My ideas or meteorites:
Non ore materials used in meteorites. (aka smooth stone, obsidian, etc)
Have the safety in the options file. Make it so meteorites could fall anywhere, not just away from you. This would make being on the surface dangerous. Be interesting to see the surface blasted by meteorites. A planet that has an orbit too near a asteroid field would tend to pull of a lot of debris and have lots of meteorites.
I figure you are probably working on having the meteorites becoming flush with the ground so I'll just mention it like this.
I need help. I've been trying to install mods, with and without modding programs, yet any time I delete ANY files in the META-INF folder, after I log in, it loads for a second then goes STRAIGHT to a black screen. Then nothing. No crash or anything, it just stays there. The only mods I have in at the moment are the Mod Loader, and MoreWorlds. I think it's the mod loader since I put in ONLY the More Worlds, and it loaded the game, yet the mod didn't work :/. Oh, and this was all one the 1.2.6 client, not the browser. Any help is appreciated.

May seem a silly question, but you ARE deleting the entire META-INF folder, right? Not just some (or all) of the files inside it?
I've only had black screens from leaving the META-INF folder, or having an old copy of the mod designed for a previous version. If those aren't it... erm....

Thanks for the work on the meteor mod! Apparently 50x20 is a little big.

It's the only mod that I have left before I can move on to Beta build.
Thanks for creating them and keeping them updated, it is greatly appreciated.
