About the mods
Nothing revolutionary, just a couple of block types that I needed for a build I am working on.
Having searched the forums I couldn't find any mods that fit the bill, so I made these.
I would like to give a big thankyou to "TechGuy543" and Methuselah96 for their excellent tutorials,
without which I could not have made these mods.

To Do List

Looks cool. I'd like to see more.

I see what you did there

Nice mod

What's that texture pack? Also, nice mod.

Thanks

The texture pack was originally vonDoomCraft, but very little of it remains. I don't think any of the textures in those screens are part of that pack.
They are all textures that I have sourced or made for the huge space build that I am working on.

Quote from Abyss5896

The stone light/stairs have wrong texture.
Otherwise, nice mod.

So it does!
Thanks for the report, downloads have been amended

Quote from Koadmaster

Um, do the stair recipes only give you one? Or do they give you more, because when you craft stairs you get four

Yeah, sorry about that!
It was an oversight by me. I currently have it set to give 6 now. (let me know if you think it should give more or the standard 4)
Should have a new download up a bit later today. Just finished coding the smp support, but I can't connect to minecraft at the moment to test.
As soon as minecraft .net comes back online for testing I will update. (if it's down for a while I will just upload the fix)
Thanks

So the SMP update had a small bug, will work on that soon!
In the meantime I have changed both mods to give a return of 8 blocks when crafted.
Also changed the name of Hidden lights to Camouflage Glow Blocks.

Added SMP support for both mods.
Requires Forge for SMP not ModloaderMp.

Just released a new mod, Timer Buttons.
Adds 4 new buttons with different activation times.

Wood Button = 3 sec,
Iron Button = 5 sec,
Gold Button = 10 sec,
Diamond Button = 1 min.

Sweet mod. Will try to get it to work with all the other mods I have. (though that shouldn't be too hard.)

Update:
Finally figured out how to use meta data, so now camouflage glow blocks has 16 glow blocks with just 1 id. Will upload in the next few hours, still need to do some screenies for the new recipes. Also made some of the recipes a bit cheaper, I sometimes forget about the purists out there who don't use the likes of TMI & NEI. Crafting now gives a stack of 64 also.

I don't think It will work for the more stairs mod though, sadly. The fact that stairs already use metadata seems to cause some funky results. Still may be able to figure something out though.

Camouflage Glow Blocks v1.3 released. Adds 16 new glow blocks,
now with just 1 block ID:


Wooden Planks, Light Planks, Medium Planks, Dark Planks, Stone, Stone Brick, Mossy Stone Brick,
Decorative Stone Brick, Sandstone, Bookshelf, Bricks, Cobblestone, Mossy Cobble, Lapis, Iron and Gold.
Block id's used(just one) = 131 (can be changed in the config)

So the SMP update had a small bug, will work on that soon!

If it was with the new cammo glow blocks 1.3 update, it should be fixed.
I realized just after uploading that I had left a piece of code out and re uploaded.
If it is something else, please let me know.

I like the timer buttons, is there a way you can make it so we can select the duration for each button?

I'm hoping it will be possible, real soon.
I have been looking into extra config options today for another project. So if I can figure out how to make that work it should be pretty much the same for setting times.
In the meantime if you have any suggestions for for the timing, let me know. I could easily adjust them as a quick fix until then.
I only really set the timing up for some one way bridges in my space build.

not sure on exact timings at this moment, but I certainly could use a button with a 1 tick pulse.

I had a play around with the timing and tried a 1 tick pulse, but when set to that the button does not depress (still sends a pulse though) and if used with a sticky piston it will leave the block behind.
At 2 ticks the button will depress, but again the sticky pistons leave blocks behind.
Tried at 3 ticks and everything works fine and the pulse rate difference from 1 tick isn't noticeable, so I settled on that.

(Changed the wood button to "Pulse Button" and gave it a new texture, same crating recipe as it was for wood. Also changed the timing for the other buttons: Diamond(glows) = 1 min, Gold = 5 sec, Iron = 3 sec and Pulse = 1 pulse)

Hopefully it will work for your needs, here's a link to the download as I haven't added to the OP yet.
(Requires Forge [client for SSP & server for SMP] (use latest recommended build v3.3.7.135))
ModLoader no longer required
TimerButtons v1.2 (client)

TimerButtons v1.2 (server)

I have also added tool effectiveness to all blocks in the 3 mods (will add updates for the other 2 mods later today)

Might also release this:
A sneak peak at DIY_Blocks! (Lets you add 16 blocks, that you can add your own textures to. Only uses
1 block ID.)
