Now the server is working (I updated it) but when i press M and press an evil deed, it does nothing. It doesn't take my exp or after 4 times give me the staff. The curious thing is that when i enter creative mode i can give myself the staff, but I can't summon minions.
Edit: The config file is in the mods folder. Also, this works fine on singleplayer.

I have the mod (love it by the way) and I'm ordering my minions to do tedious tasks >
I've noticed that when you point to a mineral block on the floor, they don't mine it, so I was wondering if you can use the same block indentification script to apply to that also. But I love this mod! Thanks for the work you've done to make this, I hope you keep it up!
I've explained before why they do NOT do exactly that, i'll do it again. Minions regard anything i havent expressly coded to be worthless as "worth to be mined". Now, if you are inside your base / on a bridge / ontop of any structure you built, the ground is going to be made up of Blocks the Minions regard "worth to be mined". So any attempt to order a movement issue would result in them dismantling your floor.
I didnt want that to happen, so ground Blocks are not being considered to mine, at all. (Do not click at your brick house walls for the same reason)
did you drag the files marked "mods" into your mods folder or do you even have a mods folder or is it updated to your version of minecraft or do you have any other mods that may screw up any mods that it hasent ben used with
This has kind of been driving me nuts. I could get minions to work in 1.2.3 but when I made a fresh new install for 1.2.5 minions isn't working at all. I downloaded it directly from atomic's website. From there my steps are exactly
Open the RAR
Go to Client Folder
Click and drag mods & resources it over to the .minecraft folder
start up the game in SSP mode but when pressing M nothing happens?
I also have modloader and modloadermp installed correctly
edit: in Creative mode everything works if I give myself the master's staff. I just can't bring up the do evil deeds menu
edit2: I copied the config file that was originally in the mod folder over to the config folder which made more sense but it still does not fix being able to bring up the evil deeds menu.
So making dinner is an evil deed? The entire female gender are the dwellers of hell then?
I'd love if you'd make the counterpart where you do good deeds and you gain "allies" (which are the good counterpart of minions, while still being subjects to your every whim) an random evil forces attack you, or if you still go minions random good forces attack you. That would make the mod epic! (Or just add another reason to kill things, because you can never kill enough)
just one quick thing if anyone can answer this...i right click with master tool in hand at a chest (from a distance) and they just drop there stuff at my feet when they are done strip mining...they dont go to the chest or deposit the stuff in the chests...how do i...at the very least get them to stay still for awhile so i can explore caves and be alone for five minutes!
EDIT: I figured it out but is there a way for the minions to continually mine while i am gone?

Order them to a spot. Wait until they are there, order them to the spot again. They should stay put. They will always continue their current taks regardless of you being close or not. However if Minecraft unloads the Chunk they are in, nothing will be mined further.
Yes i have. The idea of good Deeds and non-evil Minions was mentioned before, but i like my Minions as they are. There are other mods giving you "good" denizens.

I did, no errors. When Forge (server) is loading it says "Minions_server_1.2.4.zip loaded successfully". Also, the Forge version I'm using is 3.0.0.70.
Ported Minions to Forge 3.x (ModLoaderMp is now incompatible with Forge and will no longer be supported by me).
Update, 1.2.1
- ported from ModLoaderMp to Forge Networkmod. No longer requires MLMP, now requires Forge.
- also major bugfixes to Mining, there should be a lot less Blocks lost now
By now, many great extensions of the Minecraft gameplay exist (such as Industrialcraft, Buildcraft....) but they have one common weakness. They usually require you to amass X resources before you can make use of the advanced stuff. The process of mining down and then stripmining for raw materials has become very repetitive and boring after a while, so i decided Minions to do it for you were needed!!!
You really ****ing hit the nail on this one, I loooove hoarding tons of resources for mods but the process of harvesting 30872 iron ores and 328769384798479438 pieces of coal just kills me.

Obviously hasn't played Dungeon Keeper

I played dungeon keeper! But I didn't like it... It's only natural I forgot about the game's text...
Did you read the rest of the post?

The downloads are fixed now. Thanks for pointing this out.
It worked on your client because you had another of my forge ported mods installed (they use the same file)

Just relog. Everytime you save and leave you must resummon your minions
