Hello! This is my first mod, as I am learning to code mods. So please no comments about the lack of features, it will constantly get updated.
News
As you may see, my texturing skills are not so great, so I will welcome any texturer that wanna join to this project. He will get an constant update from me about the mod, constant beta builds and a hearing place to gather ideas. In exchange, he will help me with the textures, like a complete re-work of the current ones and future ones. The current form to apply is the following:
Time Zone: Your time zone to be able to connect at the same time.
Texturing Experience: How much time have you textured?
Previous Examples: An example of your best previous work. This is important!
Thats it. Remember there is only one spot! Thanks.
The pictures need updating! Please wait for them...
Lightcraft is an mod which adds a new element into your world, the light. It seems to be everywhere, but it happened to appear in an strange physical form. It happens to appear under earth, where there is no light. Many have wondered why, probably because the light gets trapped in those blocks during creation and they just condense until they get crusted in the stone. People are able to extract it just with a good pickaxe, leaving some of the light able to be used.
Light Ore
The Light Ore is the ore where the physical light is found. When mined, it drops some Light Dust, which will be explained later. It can be found below level 60, just a block alone, with an approximation of three each chunk.
Light Blocks
Some blocks can be enhanced to emit light, thanks to the Light Dust. In these we find dirt, sand, stone and planks. The recipes are:
Light Plank:
Light Stone:
Light Sand:
Light Dirt:
But there is also a Condensed block for light, the Light Block:
All these can be used in their advantages, like decoring with planks that emit light and exploring caves with falling light sand.
Light Furnace:
The light furnace is a special block capable of producing light! By using a light source, it can change redstone into light dust by concentrating the light into it.
Light:
Light can be collected in form of dust in the Light Ore, but if you need ingots, you will need to cook it until it gets harder.
With this done, you will now have Light Ingots, necessary for a lot of tools.
Tools:
There are three tools that can be crafted with the Light Ingots, the Light Pickaxe, the Light Axe and the Light Shovel. These can be crafted as following:
Light Axe:
Light Pickaxe:
Light Shovel:
All of these items are equivalent to their Iron tools, being able to do as well as them, but with 750 uses!.
Food:
There is a kind of food, called the Light Carrot. It is made from a carrot surrounded by light dust, and it allows the player to see in the dark.
Light Sword:
The light Sword is an sword made from diamond and a light ingot. It can kill very fast, maybe more than diamond, and with a durability of 750, it can be unstoppable. And with a hidden feature, configurable in the config, it is even better!
Light Armor:
The light armor is an armor made of light. Nothing fancy. Just resistant to many hits.
Minor improvements would do for the textures, but as for the rest of the mod -
The concept is very nice, I like the idea of using glowstone to imbue blocks with illumination effects. It was executed nicely, too, and the tools look good.
Interesting job. The textures could use some work, but the idea is interesting.
What I suggest is fixing your textures and adding a unique feature or two; this is a pretty general mod.
