He JUST said he won't be updating this mod anymore because he's losing interest in the game, which is a perfectly normal thing.
Aside from this, I registered on this forum just to comment on how helpful Daylight Savings was to me, and I hope that another modder, if not Pulseczar, might pick up/continue with this mod.
This mod is AWESOME! Someone keep it alive!
Compatible with Beta 1.4_01.
There are no plans to update this mod again.
This mod gives you the ability to position the sun and set its movement speed to values ranging from 0 to 500x (including 1/72x, which is Earth speed), through a GUI in the Options menu.
From the time I started playing Minecraft, I've always wondered why Minecraft allows you to control the monsters but not the daylight. Being mostly a construction player, nighttime was often frustrating for me. I either had to wait for daylight to return or litter the ground with torches to continue designing and building.
Daylight Savings implements what I've always thought Minecraft should have. You access the menu by hitting Esc once you are in a world, and going to Options, then Daylight Savings. The Daylight Savings options are not available when a world is not loaded.
Daylight Savings does not alter Minecraft's clock. It has its own clock that is only used for determining the position of sky components and sun/moon light level. Daylight Savings has a Resync With Minecraft Clock button that allows you to return the sun position and speed back to what it would be, had it never been altered.
Here is a quick demonstration video:
Daylight Savings does not currently use/require ModLoader (or anything else). Some kind of functionality will be lost if you use Daylight Savings with a mod that requires ModLoader, though it may not be functionality that you notice or care about. It also may not be ModLoader functionality that any of your mods use. Mods that require GUI API are entirely incompatible with Daylight Savings, unless you don't need to access the mods' Settings screens. As soon as I figure out GUI API, Daylight Savings will use Modloader and GUI API and be compatible with most other mods.
Installation Instructions:
[*:3us0qe9w]Download the mod: http://mcmodcenter.net/infusions/pro_do ... ile_id=433
[*:3us0qe9w]Open your <Minecraft>/bin folder.
[*:3us0qe9w]Back up your current minecraft.jar file. If you are not using a fresh, unmodified minecraft.jar, you may have issues getting Daylight Savings to work. DS is compatible with some other mods, but is also incompatible with many.
[*:3us0qe9w]Using an archiving program such as 7-Zip, open the minecraft.jar that remains in the bin folder.
[*:3us0qe9w]Delete the META-INF folder.
[*:3us0qe9w]Open the downloaded Daylight Savings ZIP file.
[*:3us0qe9w]Enter the Daylight Savings folder.
[*:3us0qe9w]Select all of the contents of the Daylight Savings folder, and copy-and-paste them or drag them to the opened minecraft.jar file. You may have to extract the contents of the ZIP file before this part will work. Copy the files to the root of minecraft.jar, not inside a subfolder. If the files aren't copied to the correct location, the mod will not work.
[*:3us0qe9w]Start up Minecraft and load a world. You should be able to access the Daylight Savings menu in the Options.
If you are a Mac user and you are having trouble installing the mod, this will hopefully help you: viewtopic.php?f=25&t=67774

Known Issues
[*:3us0qe9w]Daylight Savings is lacking in compatibility with other mods, as discussed above.
[*:3us0qe9w]Made mod compatible with Minecraft Beta 1.4_01.
[*:3us0qe9w]Sleeping in a bed now correctly updates the Daylight Savings clock.
[*:3us0qe9w]Got rid of translation file changes. Minecraft currently does not officially support multiple languages. So, this is not needed at this time.
[*:3us0qe9w]Made mod compatible with Minecraft Beta 1.3_01.
[*:3us0qe9w]Daylight Savings now modifies one fewer Minecraft files, slightly increasing its compatibility with other mods.
[*:3us0qe9w]The "Normal" indicator for Sun Position now requires that you not only have not touched the position slider, but also that the clocks are synced up.
[*:3us0qe9w]First release. Compatible with Minecraft Beta 1.2_02.
I tested Daylight Savings in multiplayer some and it looks like the mod does not break one's ability to join a vanilla server. I was even able to change the position of the sun while in a server. This change was only visible to me. Whatever Daylight Savings does and doesn't do in multiplayer is coincidental. Multiplayer is currently not supported with this mod.
could you update to 1.6.6 im tired of night time >.<
