[1.2.5] [SSP][SMP] pinkemmas mods: Tomes (writable books) | XP books (save your XP!) | Lecterns (Display your books!) | Outfit (SMP) (Quick start SMP)

UPDATE!
So 1.3.1 has come, modding will start up again soon.

Mojang "nicked" my books (I do like them implementing features in vanilla though!) which was/is my largest mod.

I'll do my best to adapt the bookcases to vanilla books, as well as the lecterns (hopefully the lectern bug will be fixable).

XP books and Outfit will be updated soon as well.

Thank you all for the nice comments, the help some of you have given to others in this thread, and almost 80 000 downloads over the last six months

Plug time! The Blockalot and paintable wood mod has updated to 1.2.5. One of the most used mods on my primary server!

Developers: Are anyone interested in having their own modded book type items placed on lecterns or in bookshelves? Message me Posted Image

The ID not changeable bug has been fixed

Thank you Hi7ch for making this! Everyone happy with what they see?

After creating the tome just hold it in your hand and right click. This will bring up the book for writing/reading. The first line will be used as the title of the book.

Bookshelves are used by right clicking them, that will bring up the gui to place books in them. They will accept Tomes, XP Books (if installed) and normal books (for filling them).

Please note that these bookcases do NOT count towards enchanting, at this time!

XP Books

Introduction

The XP Books mod adds a new item, a craftable XP book that can store your XP. Each crafted book will store half the XP you have at the moment of crafting.
Posted Image

To regain the XP stored in a book "eat" it like you would with food. The book will be consumed along with the XP.

The XP is not the same as levels. For each level you gain it takes more XP to reach the next level. Level 1 is 7 XP, level 2 is 10, level 3 is 14. At Level 10 your total xp is (7+10+14+17+21+24+28+31+35+38)=225. You will then get a book with 112 XP in it, which, at level 5 will return you to 10 levels. BUT! If you consume the book at level 0 (no XP) you will not just get 5 levels (93 XP total), but reach almost level 6 (which is 121 XP)

Note: do NOT hold down shift when crafting. This will make empty books, but you will still lose XP.

Outfit (SMP only)

Introduction
Outfit is a simple SMP server side ONLY mod that outfits joining players with a set of selected items.

To set what items a player receives create a file called "outfits.ini" in the config folder. See below for example configuration and item names.

To remove a player from the seen list and thus outfit them with the items again upon login, remove their name from the outfit.ini file.

Example configuration

item.bread=32
item.shovelDiamond=1
item.hatchetDiamond=1
item.porkchopCooked=16
item.pickaxeDiamond=1
tile.dirt=64

This configuration will give each player 32 bread, 16 porkchops, a diamond shovel, axe(here called hatchet), pickaxe, and 64 dirt.

Mods are also supported now, either by knowing the internal name or the ID of the item/block. Also see below how to find any item/block IDs on your server.

If you know the ID of items/blocks but not the name, you can use item.<ID> or tile.<ID> = amount.

First time a server is ran with mod_outfit installed it will create a file called outfit-help.txt in the folder of your server. In this file you will find all item and tile names / ids that can be used on your server.

My other mod works. I have modloader and I tryed another mod and it did not work either. I have a minecraft 1.0.0 and a minecraft. Which one do I put it in that might be the problem.

Follow the instructions for modloader exactly, also remember that it needs to be applied to minecraft.jar in your c:\users\your username\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\bin and the mods go in c:\users\your username\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\mods

Unlike some mods, this one doesn't need to go into the jar file, but can be put into the mods folder (don't extract it). However, if you've got other ModLoader mods working by copying them into your jar file, you could try it with this one too.
