Please note:  I am no longer using Adfly or any other ad services for my mods.  If you've ever thought of donating, please consider doing so.  Even $1 makes working on these mods with my free time worth it.  =)

Updates

May 16th, 2013 - Added the Glass Extended mod as per donator request.  This small mod adds in glass stairs, slabs, and thin (think carpet) glass blocks.  These blocks are crafted using the normal recipes with glass blocks.  Also, all the blocks are named 'Glass'.  Dunno how to fix this yet.  And yes, my slabs do not stack on purpose.

May 11th, 2013 - I've released the promised DesertCraft mod!  This mod contains sixteen cactus/desert plants that spawn with MCF's Biome Dictionary (you can re-name the plants in the config), cactus armor (leather strength), cactus tools (wood strength), sandstone tools (stone strength), glass steel (made with eight glass around an iron ingot, makes 8), glass steel window (made using 8 glass steel in a chest shape, makes 4 blast proof windows), and glass steel tools (gold strength).  Also includes a recipe to turn cactus blocks into planks for better desert living (one cactus block to one plank) .  Please see the config file (.minecraft/config/PamsMods/DesertCraft/DesertCraft.cfg) for all the options.

May 4th, 2013 - All my 1.5.1 mods work just fine with the 1.5.2 versions of Minecraft loaded with the 1.5.2 Minecraft Forge.  =)

Also, I have not disappeared.  I have been working hard on fixing up my code, working on donation drive mods/items/etc, and getting HarvestCraft/Weee!Flowers compatible with Forestry and Thaumcraft.

Spoiler:

April 6th, 2013

Now that it seems that I have caught all the major bugs (eggplant stuff misnamed, tea leaves not giving seeds withstanding), I going to start my Donation Drive idea.  This Donation Day will start today, April 6th, 2013.  

Basically, it will be like a Kickstarter, with donation tiers, and then an end goal that will also have stretch goals.

$1 - Your name will be added to a text document of Donators that will be in every mod zip file of mine.
$5 - You get to request a new food using the crops available and also have your nick/name/initials/etc in grey under the item as Donated By: Blah.  
$25 - You get to request a whole new crop, bush, or tree and will be able to request three foods using the new crop.  All crop items, foods, etc will have the Donated By: Blah as above on them.  Please do not ask for a variant of something we already have (cherry tomatoes, etc).
$50 - You get to request a whole new mini-mod or sub-mod for HarvestCraft that's more complicated than a new crop (like the sink, etc).  This tier will require a lot of back and forth on what exactly you want and what I am actually capable of coding.

All donator tier rewards will be added to my mods within 3 weeks of May 10th (the $50 tier might take longer--I will let individuals know).  The money gained tier mods will be added/released by the end of June at the very latest.

Folks who have donated since the beginning of April will also receive these donation benefits if they would like but their totals won't be able to count against the total (sorry).

I will be listing donations (not names, just what was asked for) on the original post so folks don't replicate requests.

NOTE:  I will not add any name that is vulgar, inappropriate, etc.  If you ask for your name to be listed as so, I will make up a name for you instead.

April 5th, 2013 - Well, I tried but there will always be bugs.  I've fixed several SMP bugs, several crops turning to stone/wood when growing, several broken recipes (ground cinnamon, celery stuff, etc), and a few other bugs.  One change I've made is that the secret crop now must be grown on soul sand and will take longer than normal to grow.

April 4th, 2013 - I'm finally releasing 1.5.1 updates for all my mods!  This has been my longest, hardest, and most annoying update to date.  Heh.  It's taken me over 36 hours to cut up and re-name over 1014 textures and re-code HarvestCraft to be more efficient and easier to update in the future.  Please see the change log under each download link for changes.  These mods should be use-able without issue on older worlds but always please make sure to make back-ups before trying!  Also, these mods should work with later Minecraft updates, but we'll see.

Mar 16th, 2013 - Fixed the issue with the two grey flower crops dropping the wrong flower along with bonemeal not being used up in the inventory and the action missing the 'special bonemeal sparkles'.

Mar 12th, 2013 - Below this post are the beta versions of my mini-mods and Weee! Flowers for 1.5  If you have the time, please download and test these as exhaustively as you can.  The more testing that can be done on these mods (and the bugs found) the faster I can update HarvestCraft to 1.5.

Beta Versions of my 1.5 MC Mods

Weee! Flowers 1.1 (1.5 MC) - Adfly

- Reduced spawn rate to 10 by default

- Enabled flowers to dye recipes by default

Get all the Seeds! 1.6 (1.5 MC) - Adfly

- Reduced drop rate of non-wheat seeds to 2 by default

Pam Hates Snow 1.1 (1.5 MC) - Adfly

-No changes

Clay Spawn 1.5 (1.5 MC) - Adfly

- Added config file

Melon Spawn 1.5 (1.5 MC) - Adfly

- Added config file

Huge Mushroom Spawn 1.3 (1.5 MC) - Adfly

- Reduced spawn rate to 2 by default

Simple Recipes 1.9 (1.5 MC) - Adfly

- No changes

Mar 6th, 2013 - Added over 150 new foods and even more recipes (brings up the food count to over 250 unique items) to the HarvestCraft Base mod.  These foods come from all the new crops, trees, and bushes I've added without recipes plus a lot more.  Enjoy!

Feb 21st, 2013 - I've released the final 17 crops (including Cactus fruit bush and a secret crop) for HarvestCraft!  I've also fixed the foodrestore can't be changed bug in several mods's config files so if you're having that issue with a mod, please re-download!  Enjoy!

Feb 19th, 2013 - Since my schedule is tight due to a second job, I am releasing the 19 crops that are left as I complete them.  Today's new crops are coffee and eggplants!  Both are re-growable crops and coffee beans can be planted straight into the ground instead of being turned back into seeds to plant.  Enjoy!

Feb 15th, 2013 - I've fixed the issues with coconuts not smelting into roasted coconuts and vanilla MC storage blocks not crafting properly.

Feb 14th, 2013 - Happy <3 Day everyone!  Because I love you all, I've finished coding all thirteen of the new tropical trees and a new HC mod for storage of vanilla Minecraft food-ish items!  That's fourteen mods for the 14th!  =)

Banana, Coconut, and Papaya trees use my new 'palm' tree design.  Cinnamon trees now have the 'fruit' block as the first three tree trunk blocks.  Cinnamon bark logs are really hard to break at growth stage one and two but break easily when ready to harvest.  The log will break (and do not re-grow), dropping 1-4 cinnamon if mature.

The new storage mod for vanilla Minecraft allows you to craft storage blocks for Wheat, Pumpkin, Melon, Red Mushroom, Brown Mushroom, Carrot, Potato, Egg, Spider Eye, Rotten Flesh, Raw Chicken, Raw Beef, Raw Pork, Raw Fish, Leather, Sugar Cane out of nine of the material.  Wheat and Sugar Cane storage blocks look like thatched hay and woven bamboo respectively.  

The Salt mod now contains a salt storage block as well! (Still says v1.0 cause I'm lazy) - You need to re-download the Salt mod and HarvestCraft Base to get this to work!

ENJOY!  =)

Feb 10th, 2013 - I've fixed all of HarvestCraft Base's tools (pot, saucepan, etc) disappearing when used in the crafting grid.  Tools should now stay in the crafting grid after being used.

Feb 7th, 2013 - I've fixed the issue that may be causing random crashing/not loading bugs when you mix-match HC mods.  EVERYONE needs to re-download ALL HarvestCraft mods they use.  I've also (hopefully) fixed the issue with my tools disappearing in auto-crafting machines and Thaumaturgy giving too much stuff for my foods.  In addition, I've fixed the error with cherry crates being uncraftable.  And finally, I've added five new trees - Walnut, Pear, Plum, Avocado, and Nutmeg.

Feb 5th, 2013 - Added Sink mod!  While it's under HarvestCraft, it can be used by itself.  You can craft four different 'sinks' which allow you fill buckets and bottles with water--a water barrel, a stone sink, a clay jug, and a brick well.  Craft them with three on each side and three (wood, smoothstone, clay blocks, or brick blocks) down the middle in the crafting grid.  Enjoy!

Feb 4th, 2013 - I've fixed a config file error and crashing bug in Candle mod.  Please re-download and re-gen your config file.  Also, added the following bush mods: Blackberry, Raspberry, Cranberry, Kiwi, Sunflower, and Spice Leaf.  Cranberry and Sunflower aren't re-growable.  Cranberries spawn near 'beach areas' (not the Beach biome) and must be planted on still water like Rice.  All new bush crops are edible.  No new foods were added yet.

Feb 2nd, 2013 -Added the Candle mod!  This mod adds candleberry bushes and a candle nut tree along with hardened leather armor (strong as iron) and sixteen colored candle 'torch' blocks!

Jan 28th, 2013 -11:48PM EST -- If you've had any problems, please re-download the HC Base mod and delete and re-gen all the HC mods (base, crops, etc) config files.  Sorry about that.  

I've finally recovered from my kidney stone.  Hooray!  I've also updated a ton of stuff, added combination downloads for the HC stuff, and made ALL of my mods able to be downloaded both through Adfly and direct download.  Also, I've revised my mod pack stance (see below). You're welcome.

- Moved all food except pure smelted items/combustible lemon over to HC Base, kept all IDs the same
- Fixed Lemon crate recipe
- All trees now spawn in all biomes
- Onions, Beans, Peanuts, Rice, and White Mushroom 'crop items' can also be used to plant their crops just like vanilla carrots and potatoes (in addition to being eaten and turned into seeds)
- Automatic crafting grids and the like should hopefully stop eating pots, skillets, etc on making items
- Mayo should properly give back the bottle when used in craft recipes
- Bottle and bowl foods now have drinking sounds instead of eating
- Fixed veggie stirfry and skewers recipes
- Flipped the cotton crop image to make it easier to read the inventory number

Jan 13th, 2013 - Added White Mushroom crop mod (must be planted on wood logs).  Added White mushroom compatible recipes to Rice, Bellpepper, and Base mod.  Changed Saucepan recipe in Base to hopefully stop conflicting with Redpower.  EDIT:  Added Salt 'ore' mod as well for HarvestCraft.  Important: If you do not have HC Base installed the Salt mod WILL CRASH YOUR GAME.  It's not meant to stand alone.

Jan 10th, 2013 - Added Blueberry bushes and Cherry Trees.  Fixed Lemons being called Strawberries.  Made Apple and Lemon (also Cherry) trees spawn one block higher on average to stop fruit from being on the ground.  Added two new recipes to Rice mod.  Weee! Flowers and the Cotton mod are now way more OreDictionary compatible.

Jan 7th, 2013 - Added Lemon Tree mod.  Find the thuper seekrit recipe!

Jan 2nd, 2013 - Added Bean, Bellpepper, and Chili Pepper crop mods!  =)

December 29th, 2012 - Added a new recipe to Simple Recipes (2 wheat = 2 seeds).

December 26th, 2012 - Added the Rice crop mod (it needs to be planted on still water in order to grow) and updated HCBase to include the rice to flour recipe if you have the HC Rice mod installed as well.  =)

December 18th, 2012 - I've updated my mods to 1.4.6 and fixed a bug with the Cotton mod where cloth slabs would only drop as white ones.  I've been sick (hence the lack of updates), but I hope to have something out by the New Year.  Happy Holidays!

December 7th, 2012 - I've released an update to HarvestCraft base to allow BuildCraft folks to disable the glass bakeware recipe since it was interfering with the tank recipe in BC.  Also, I've released the following crop mods for HC: Grape, Cucumber, and Peanut!  Enjoy your pickles and PB&J sandwiches.  =)

December 4th, 2012 - Apparently apple saplings weren't growing with bonemeal, so I've uploaded a version that fixes that.  It still has the bug where growing a tree doesn't use up the bonemeal in your hand, but I don't know how to fix that yet.

December 3rd, 2012 - Added Cotton Mod which includes cloth carpets, stairs, and slabs and you can use woven cloth to make leather armor.  Fixed Apple Tree and Strawberry bugs. Updated Simple Recipes to 2 Bones = 4 sticks and changed the middle growth texture for the Apple Tree mod to make it more obvious it isn't done growing.

November 30th, 2012 - I've released the Apple HC sub-mod, although it's possible to use this mod without the Base HarvestCraft if you want.

November 29th, 2012 - I've release HarvestCraft and five crop sub-mods for download!  Hooray!

November 28th, 2012 - I've put out HC Base Alpha 0.2 and the Tomato mod alpha for testing.  Thanks!

November 25th, 2012 - I hope everyone that celebrated Thanksgiving had a great holiday!  I've released the HarvestCraft Alpha download and recipe links for those who were interested in helping me test and bug find.  Please see page 254 for the links.

November 20th, 2012 - All my mods work for 1.4.5 without issue so long as you're using the latest version of Forge for 1.4.5  Enjoy! EDIT: If you're having issues with Get all the Seeds or Weee! Flowers, please re-download as of 8:11PM EST.  Thanks.  EDIT 2: Added new mod, Pam Hates Snow!

November 17th, 2012 - I've re-released Weee! Flowers as a stand-alone mod for 1.4.4/5. Also, once Forge updates, you should be able to use my 1.4.4 mods for 1.4.5.  Enjoy!

November 15th, 2012 - Over the last year and a half I've coded many mods and variations, but I finally find myself with less time than before due to a string of life changes in the past month or so.  For those that have been following me, you'll be happy to know that I am going to continue to support HarvestCraft (and by extension Weee! Flowers) as separate mods.  I'll also be supporting my mini-mods despite my hectic schedule because, well, it takes all of ten minutes to update them each version change.  =)

As of today, I'll be updating and uploading all of my mini-mods to 1.4.4  I am aiming to release an alpha version of the new, improved, and modular HarvestCraft this weekend.  Please don't worry--it's coming!

However, I am no longer continuing support for the Combined Mod.  I have added recipes to the Simple Recipe mod to allow survival in deserts without cobblestone and wood and to use bones as sticks.  To replace EarthCraft and the coloration of HearthCraft, I suggest the following mods: Metallurgy 2 and the Paint Mod.

I'm very sorry that I won't be supporting all of my huge mods anymore.

pretty.... not gonna download though, i don't download mods.

[Meldrix]

Looks like s very good and stable mod. Shame I can't download it because my bin has so many mods it's like a fat man with his fat hanging over his belt.

[Daveyx0]

Very nice. Shame I have the same problemm as zombiesniper

[MatrexsVigil]

Aww, it's too bad you guys can't download it.  Thanks for replying anyway.  =)

[MatrexsVigil]

Just uploaded my Pam's Food Mod and posted everything in the first post.  Enjoy!

[MatrexsVigil]

Fixed a problem with strawberries.  Downloads changed to reflect this.

[MatrexsVigil]

Potentially fixed a problem with peanuts growing causing a crash.  If this happens to you, please post your error report here, and I'll keep looking into it.  =)

[moduseryokoFTW]

nice mod i like having more food to farm of this mod

[greezzoo]

hello! Where are the recipes please ?

[abc603]

Ill check this out even though I am not into farming on minecraft.

[MatrexsVigil]

greezzoo, on 29 June 2011 - 02:46 PM, said:

hello! Where are the recipes please ?

They are listed in a GoogleDoc that I linked under the recipes header.  Please check there for now.

Once 1.7 is out, and I get my mods to work with the new update, I'll be posting more pictures and recipe pictures then.

[MatrexsVigil]

Added a list of known mods that my two mods will work with (I know because I am currently using them myself!).  =)

[MatrexsVigil]

Just waiting on MCP and MinecraftExtended to be updated before I can update my stuff.  I'll be adding new things when I do (and maybe even fixing how flowers spawn so they're not everywhere anymore), so it will hopefully be worth it!

[MatrexsVigil]

I'm thinking of changing my food mod to be a bit more complicated, with recipes needing tools and the recipes themselves being more in-depth.  Do you have an opinion?  I'd love to hear it!

[MatrexsVigil]

Updated Weee! Flowers for Minecraft 1.7.2!

Also fixed flowers spawning everywhere in the same number for each type.  Flowers should now be more spaced out with a different count of each type for each spawn area.

Enjoy!

My food mod will be updated once Minecraft Extended is updated.  Please be patient!

[MatrexsVigil]

Updated Pam's Food Mod to 1.1 for 1.7.2!

Updated Weee! Flowers to 1.2!

Next update:  I plan on adding at least 25 new recipes and then hopefully posting pics of each recipe instead of routing people to a GoogleDoc.

[kathjack]

when i tried to download the farming mod it gives me the link to download the weeeeeflowers mod :/

Alright, I have fixed this.  Sorry about that!

[scope-ion]

This looks awesome, downloading right now! I'll reply again when I start playing with it. The only bad thing is that Painterly pack gives me a headache. I use Moontrain's Lucid Pack, but the seeds are normal, Minecraft default I think.
