I have no idea what this techne is, so i'm guessing it's a program for creating 3d models or .obj files.
Minecraft (so far) does not use pre-designed models for anything that i am aware of. everything is code that boils down to a draw-->cube function. for the body, you choose an x/y/z coordinate to begin, and choose a second set of x/y/z coordinates to finish the box. rinse and repeat, and using clever rotations, you have a character. I'm not sure there is any outside program out there to help with modelling with this game simply because it technically doesn't use them.
if you're still interested in other 3d modelling software, search for softimage, blender, and milkshape. (softimage is my favorite)
Here's an idea, though im not entirely sure how to accomplish this.
Use signs to spawn your mobs, kinda like lockett and other mods use them to do other things.
if you place a sign and type something like:
line 1) [Spawn]
line 2) [Zombie]
line 3) [4.5]
line 4) [2]
make it work similar to a dungeon mob spawner, but in this case, it spawns zombies with four and a half times their normal health and cause twice the damage.
from there, you don't have to create any more mobs at all, just make the sign become a spawner for whatever you need, and it adjusts the health and damage values of the entities it spawns.
thanks, but i know how to make them avoid things. already goofed around with that code a bit. always funny when you make zombies avoid the player, and skellies avoid cows, but my problem is making things attack the creepers.
I'v been scouring through the creeper files for a while and found nothing that would prevent another entity attacking them.
The wolf idea is new to me, so i checked it out. found nothing having anything to do with the creeper.
there are 4 ways it chooses it's target, and a specific order it checks in:
1) Owner is hurt by something
2) Owner attacks something
3) It is attacked
4) if none of the above apply, it attacks anything "nontamed"
you could always change the characters move speed/animation speed when walking.
that would be much easier than re-doing the crouching animation anyway.
with a good bit of trial and error, i could figure out the "how to" for you, but if you know anything about minecraft coding, you could probably figure out that part faster than me.
I think this mod is a great idea.
I would love to help if it weren't for one problem.
Though i am by no means new to programming or game design, i AM new to both Java, and working with the way minecrafts code is layed out, so any progress i make will be slow.
unless you get desperate enough to need that level of experience, i'm just gonna support this mod by complimenting the idea of it. sounds great.
Actually, i just thought of a better way to "Phrase" what my idea is, and it can be carried over to many uses.
add a 3rd bar, (like the health and food bar) but this one is for stamina.
the staminas MAXIMUM will be limited to the current hunger level, and recharges at about the same rate as health does.
it can be implemented into swimming, simply by draining it while swimming, and sinking once empty.
it can also be implemented into sprinting, jumping, and various other actions if your goal of this mod is to make minecraft more difficult on a realistic level.

In short, still unsolved.

Maybe someone can eventually help me with this. still can't figure out the creeper. making progress elsewhere, just can't fix this one issue...
