(Begin Sales Pitch)

Ever wanted more than just Dandelions and Roses? Think the proportion of Dandelions to Roses is way out of whack? Are you struggling to make Cyan Dye? Then this mod is for you!

(End Sales Pitch)

Flowercraft is a simple mod that adds six new flowers to the game: the Iris, the Peony, the Bluebell, the Tiger Lily, the Orchid, and the Tulip. These flowers, plus the existing roses and dandelions, all have approximately the same chance of spawning. The end result is more flowers per chunk on average, but not in excess.

Here's a patch of flowers at sunrise: (not natural, I placed these after collecting them!)



Here's a picture of all the flowers together, plus their corresponding dyes:



Here's a picture of all the flowers and dyes together in inventory:




Basic data:

Iris -> Light Blue Dye
Peony -> Pink Dye
Bluebells -> Cyan Dye
Tiger Lily -> Orange Dye
Orchid -> Lime Dye
Tulip -> Purple Dye

These use BlockID's 150-155, and use image spaces 170-175 (only for non-Modloader versions).

Installation Instructions (same info as in README):


This is my first mod, so forgive me if installation is harder than it should be. Please alert me to any bugs or issues!

Enjoy your flowers!

Awesome first mod. Downloading :biggrin.gif:

Thanks!

ModLoader is definitely a priority, but with Beta 1.5 so close I had to wait. =[

Pretty awesome mod. I found out that it isn't compatible with More Trees. 170-175 block id's are clashing with the ones from more trees.

Can't wait for 1.5! Although I have my 1.4 bin saved in case mods don't get updated fast. I'm not as patient as most people, but I'm not one of those people who troll the forums asking EVERY mod maker to update their mod.

Finally. Now what do we do with lapiz lazuli ore?

I really hope that the mod API update also includes a lot more image and block ids. The current range is too small.

Hope to see you in 1.5!

(Edit: Lapis Lazuli ore is still necessary for plain blue dye, just a Cactus Green is necessary for plain green dye. The blue flowers only give you cyan and light blue dye!)

Can you make a 32x32 version of the flower textures as an option for when you update this to 1.5? I love the look of this mod but the 16x16 textures make me a bit cautious. (I can just double their size and put it in the texture pack, but it wouldn't be as good as dedicated 32x32 textures)

If not, I suppose I could have a go at it.

Freaking awesome, I've always wanted more flower colors in the game, what's up with Notch only giving us 2...?

Request: Could there be a ...black flower? I feel that is the only thing missing. And maybe a white one too?

Will download when it's updated to 1.5 :]

-bookmarked

I don't have enough experience with textures just yet to make a 32x32 version, unfortunately.

As for black and white flowers: I have considered it, but it doesn't quite fit for me. Black dye would be ink sacs, and I've tried to avoid duplicating dyes that can be gotten directly elsewhere. And white dye would be rather silly. So, as far as aesthetics go, I would certainly like to do black and white flowers, but practically I don't think I will.

Anyway...

FlowerCraft is updated for 1.5_01! Woohoo!

Unfortunately, MCP is still test-only and Modloader is not quite working properly with it, so FlowerCraft will not be Modloader compatible for a little while yet. Sorry!

Goes good with MoreFlowers mod.

Huh, never saw the Moreflowers mod. It's tough to find this stuff when it doesn't show up in the title.

I assume by 1.5 you mean Modloader for 1.5. And I don't know, actually, I'll go check. (I also assume you're talking about More Flowers. Be specific!)

Edit: Assuming you can even add this mod while Modloader is installed (unlikely), I imagine it wouldn't conflict. Once this is Modloader compatible, it shouldn't conflict either.

Flower Power yeahhhh

Will be waiting for modloader compat, but this is a fantastic mod, and I think I'll like this better than moreflowers, mostly because the blue ones won't give you lapis lazuli when you mill them for dye... lol. The color range is better, and the textures are more the style of the default MC texture as well.

****ing 5 star post, brah.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to the Modloader version myself, so I can use it on my own worlds.

I hope its compatable with modloader soon! cant wait! these are for you!

Edit: Never mind.

I'm trying to get Modloader to work currently. Will update you on whether I succeed or not.

you will succeed dammit
