This week I've made a bugfix release to solve many of the issues that people are having in Alpha 4.0. (There are still more bugs left, which I'll fix during this week and upload a4.2)
Wow, it's been a while, but here is the 34thweekly update!
There still hasn't been a lot going on this week, but you still might be interested in this:
- Planning for the next update, alpha 5.0, is underway. Please see Trello for more information. The main confirmed feature is specialty bending (lightningbending, icebending, etc) along with at least 8 new abilities for specialty bending.
- I'm still setting up the official server
- FavouriteDragon will be helping coding abilities and other things in the next update! I've also been setting up more code documentation for him and anyone else who might help code AV2 later on.
Here are some early abilities for icebending and lightningbending. I've added them to make sure the new bending types work properly, and they will be expanded in the future.
Ice walk, an ability I just added in 10 minutes. It allows you to walk on water by creating ice at your feet and uses Minecraft's frost walker code. This is basically a clone of frost walker enchantment, but it's still an (imo) essential icebending feature.
Lightning bending- summon lightning at your feet! Definitely not the final version. and please ignore the missing textures
This week I plan on getting started on a5.0 and finishing any bugs or crashes in the current version. Also, a4.2 will be released in a few more days once I fix more bugs.
along with the specialty bending you confirmed, will lava, metal, and plant bending, plus chi blocking eventually be added?
Also, can you add a configuration options to change the textures you created for everything vanilla default particles/textures for lava and water? It gives me nostalgia from the project korra plugin that isnt very popular any more.

Yes, I plan to add those specialty bending types eventually. Do you mean a configuration option to use vanilla textures for the water/fire abilities?
Love the work so far. And I'm still looking forward to Avatar. =)
Thanks for following the mod If you have any ideas about Avatar, let me know because I'm not sure how someone should become the Avatar. It's time to think about Avatar more seriously.

Add-on support, (or an api for custom abilities), would be awesome! Coders could add what they want to the mod! (Voidbending, endbending, starlightbending, and rainbow bending!)
What i mean by vanilla textures is all partciles and textures would be made into a vanilla particle or texture. Maybe a texture pack could do it or a config option.
Sorry this is a day late. Here's the 35th weekly update!
The main feature of the next update will be four new types of bending. The first one is icebending. There are 2 new abilities confirmed for icebending this week, ice burst and ice prison.
The first one on the list, ice burst, is a great offensive and defensive move when you have lots of enemies around you. You surround yourself with a ball of ice, then break it and shoot ice shards out in all directions. There aren't tons of shards, but each shard can do 2.5 hearts of damage, so watch out! A few of the ice shards are even automatically aimed to target nearby monsters if you get surrounded. The ice bubble can also protect you from harm, much like an air bubble.
Screenshots not added for ice burst since I haven't done visuals yet.
The second ice ability is ice prison. You can encase other mobs or players in a chunk of ice. During this period, they are helpless and can't move, jump, or use their items! They can only watch helplessly and wait until the ice melts.
A player encased in ice
After a few moments, the ice will break and the player will be free!
The new abilities are still WIP and they'll probably be done by next week.
Also, about add on support, I am planning on delaying this until the mod's release (or not having add ons at all). The reason is because the mod was never designed with add-ons in mind, so there's a lot of stuff that needs to change for add-ons to be supported. Also, there needs to be lots of documentation and tutorials so add-ons can be used. I decided that it would be a bit too much for now since I'm focusing on alpha 5.0.
Thanks for reading and hope you are enjoying the news!

Nice!
Will the ice prison victims' move animations be frozen?
And, i'd add to the victims an option of being resistace (a block of ice surrounding seems as a good idea to add resistance) and after defreezing will be slowed?

Thanks! If move animations are added, then they'll be frozen. It's not really possible to freeze vanilla animations though.
When you said resistance, do you mean victims being slower after they're frozen? It's a good idea, and I'll add it
if your thinking about how to make people the avatar there should be something in the config or in single player that lets you choose to be the avatar, on servers..... I have no clue lol
Hello, it's the 36th weekly update! Right now the new abilities are almost done (waiting for models)
Over the next week, I'm mainly going to be focusing on bug fixes and improvements for the patch alpha 4.2. It will come out next week.
Also, the new official server will be released right after a4.2 comes out. I'm holding off on the server since there are still a few important bugs that need to be fixed before the server will be ready!
A new mob is coming out, the ostrich horse. It will allow fast transportation over land. There will be several armors equippable for your ostrich horse. Talhnation has made the models for it and they look great!

Do you know happiness? Happiness can't describe how happy I am that this is out. Congratz!
YES!!!!!
Life is a game... I have cheat codes enabled.
Also - is this possible to make creative mode have all powers fully unlocked and upgraded by default (it's creative anyway)?
Someone have already suggested it, it'll (probably) be added in another update. Visit the mod's trello for more info.
