Welcome all, to the home page of the Creep Mod! This mod adds in a plethora of new content, most importantly including an entire new dimension! All information you need to get started with this mod is below, as well as some other goodies that you can use to help find your way around! Good luck on your journey within the Creep!
NOTICE: If you are planning on making a mod review, or hosting this mod on an external site, please read the legal information at the bottom of the thread in full. You have been warned.
As for the upcoming updates, I'm postponing them for a little longer. My exams are starting in about a week from the time of writing (18th May), and I've got to devote my time to my studies and making sure my free time isn't a drag. As always, I'll keep you all posted.
This is where I will periodically display new community activity regarding the Creep Mod! Currently in the Spotlight is something a little more serious and pressing. User CoolSquid has created a thread to raise awareness of mod reposts. I highly recommend supporting his/her cause, as I and many others are victims of mod reposting. #StopModReposts CoolSquid's Original Thread
A basic description of the Creeper-shaped, explosion-inducing package of awesome this mod is all about!
The Creep is basically an entire new dimension, a dimension that is the noble Creeper's homeland! Fortunately, the cuddly creatures you encounter in this new land are not your typical explody-creepers, and will only go for the nuclear hug if they decide you are unfriendly (in other words, punching them is a bad idea). But the Creep is not only a haven for Creepers, it can also be yours, too! There are a bucketload of ores lying around in the ground, which will certainly aid you in your survival in the Creep, as well as various plants and livestock for your nutritional needs. Strange forces have given rise to floating islands and have chemically altered all the oceans into liquid nitroglycerine, a powerful explosive that can be picked up with a certain kind of bucket. Whether you conquer the Creepers or live among them, something interesting is bound to happen!
Here's where I give you updates on the various things regarding the mod! This is different from the Development Feed because it's a bit more open-ended, so anything goes really. It will usually be general announcements about when updates will be out and how I am doing, but like I said, anything goes.
Current News: 2 Mar 2014 - 10:28 PMIt's here guys! Update Day is at hand! I've spent the last week meticulously sifting through code, and it really paid off! There's a bunch of new goodies in this version, as well as some important bug fixes and performance enhancements (although it still does help to have a beefy computer, it will always be slightly laggier than the Overworld).
Older News: 27 Feb 2014 - 6:27 PM: Well, I just thought I'd give you all some information on the update to 1.7. Due to the way blocks are registered within Minecraft in 1.7, there is a very high chance (99%+) that this will mess up and swap around blocks if you try to load up your old saves of the Creep. This couldn't be helped, and I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it paves the way for exciting future content, and drastically increases the Creep's compatibility with other mods! More on that to come!
22 Feb 2014 - 10:09 PM: So, it looks like the changes to Minecraft at the moment are all to do with preparing for the long-awaited Mod API! I'm glad Mojang finally got around to this, as it has been promised for a long time now. It does however make traditional modding a brain-hurt of a time, at least until the guys over at Minecraft Forge iron it out. I will do my best to make do, though.Also, check out the current Spotlight video, made by PopularMMO's! This video makes a great review of the mod, and it has attracted a whole chunk-load of views (pun not intended). I didn't get a shoutout during the video, unfortunately, but hey, it's still a great video!
The following set of instructions detail how to install the mod. These instructions should be followed as precisely as possible, especially if you are new to mod installation. If you have any problems, double-check that you followed these instructions. There is also a small section on errors below.
Installation - V3.0.01_1.6.2 and above: 1. Download the Creep Mod from the 'Downloads' section of this post. 2. Download the latest version of Minecraft Forge Installer for the version of Minecraft you are using at http://files.minecraftforge.net/ (for the Creep Mod, the corresponding Minecraft version is noted at the end of the version number, eg. V3.1.02_1.6.4 is compatible with Minecraft 1.6.4). 3. Choose 'Install Client' on the Minecraft Forge installer and proceed with the installation. 4. Access your .minecraft folder (there are various tutorials on how to do this if you are unsure). 5. Navigate to the 'mods' folder, creating it if it doesn't exist. 6. Copy the Creep Mod file you downloaded in Step 1 into the 'mods' folder. 7. Launch Minecraft using the new 'Forge' profile. 8. You're finished! Enjoy the mod!
Installation - V2.1 and prior:
(Note: This guide is for the Forge Edition of the Creep Mod. For the ModLoader Edition, skip Step 2 and ignore any references to Minecraft Forge. Also, in Step 4, download the regular version of DimensionAPI.) 1. Download the Creep Mod from the 'Downloads section of this thread. 2. Download the corresponding version of Minecraft Forge. 3. Download the corresponding version of Risugami's ModLoader. 4. Download the corresponding version of SDK's ModLoaderMP. 5. Download the corresponding version of Pudelhund's DimensionAPI. 6. Access your .minecraft folder. 7. Navigate to the 'minecraft.jar' file in the 'bin' directory. Make sure your Minecraft installation is clean (in other words, unmodded) before you start. 8. Open 'minecraft.jar' with archiving software (I recommend 7Zip or WinRAR). 9. Delete the META-INF folder, and then copy the contents of the mods you downloaded in the following order: first Forge, second ModLoader, third ModLoaderMP, fourth DimensionAPI and last of all the Creep Mod. 10. Load up Minecraft and enjoy!
Troubleshooting Errors: 1. Disable all of your mods and re-enable them one by one. This way you can check if a particular mod is causing you grief. 2. Make sure you have a clean minecraft.jar BEFORE you start, especially if you are using V3.0.01_1.6.2 and above. 3. Ask a question on this thread! I will see what I can do to help. It is always helpful if you include your crash log (the crash log is the blue-windowed text that comes up whenever Minecraft crashes). 4. If you are wondering why there is only a ModLoader version for the Server-side mod up until V2.1, it is because BOTH CLIENT VERSIONS ARE COMPATIBLE WITH IT.4. And of course: MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS PRECISELY.
Information Regarding Other Mods:
Every version of the Creep Mod after V2.1 uses Minecraft Forge. Because of this, it should be fully compatible with other Forge mods, unless you have ID conflicts (this can be fixed by changing the values in '.minecraft/config/TheCreep.cfg'). This also goes for all Forge versions up to and including V2.1. ModLoader versions up to V2.1 may be a bit more temperamental, but should still work with 95% of mods. As of V3.2.01_1.7.2, it should be even more compatible with pretty much everything, due to Mojang phasing out object IDs for the most part!
This is arguably the most important part of this thread: the place where you come to get your green, Creeper-shaped goodies!
Development Versions:Install these versions as if they were ModLoader Edition mods.

Should you need any further encouragement, I managed to find a plethora of drool-inducing screenshots to post. Here we are!
I finished my portal!
I have arrived! Awesome!
I found a lake (or what passes for one in the Creep).
HUGSSSSSSSS?
What'cha lookin' at?
Shiny!
After I found food in the form of Stickgrass, I decided to get a bit industrial...
This section is where I will keep you all updated on my development progress! Be warned that this section is prone to technobabble.
7 March 2014:7:48 PM: Argh! I found out I let a rendering nasty get past me! That means ALL 1.7.2 versions up until the will-be V3.3.03 break Multiplayer! Drat, but at least it was easy to fix.
6 March 2014: 8:33 PM: Okay, so I was a day late. I was just checking tt everything was in order. Enjoy!
4 March 2014: 9:15 PM: Going to add an update tomorrow! Changelog is already up.
2 March 2014: 9:24 PM: Update Day! It has arrived! Uploading now, and running a final test of the .jar file! Woo!
1 March 2014:1:31 PM: I ran the mod obfuscation yesterday, and tried booting up. It instantly crashed. What was the source of this mysterious error? I had obfuscate strings in the frickin' source files. Genius. Anyway, it's pretty much done now, I just have to decide whether I want to add some more stuff or push for a release.
27 February 2014: 6:22 PM: Well, I've been ironing out bugs these last three days, and there's been nowhere to go but up! I've got the dimension itself fully functional on both client and server, and I've even found a bit of time to squeeze in some extra content! I'll brush over some of the most notable changes as of yet, but the rest will be in the release changelog. I know many of you complained of lag, so I dailed back the island generator quite a bit (they don't generate as big or as high), and I removed some redundant code. It's probably now around 2x faster, with little to no impact on atmosphere or gameplay.
24 February 2014: 8:26 PM: You won't believe this, guys, but I got rid of all of the errors! I'm gonna try and run it now, but I'm not expecting much from it. Next it will be a matter of clearing up bugs. Be back soon!
24 February 2014:5:07 PM: This is monumental. Today I cleared up ALL the errors in the main mod file. Also, I managed to fix my WorldProvider and a whole bunch of arbitrary files, so hooray for that! And last of all, it really is true! There are no more block OR item ID's, and for entities you get 256 UNIQUE id's per mod. Much code, many ID, wow.
23 February 2014:5:42 PM:I figured out how to use the new dev workspace! Hooray! Also, OH MY GOD. I had a moment of realisation. YOU DON'T NEED BLOCK ID'S ANYMORE. THINK OF THE POSSIBILITIES. Also, screw you Minecraft Forums for trying to correct 'realisation'. Here in Australia we don't spell it with a 'z'. 'Till next time.
22 February 2014: 7:45 PM: Well, would you look at that! The thread got a much needed revamping today, and I also took another look at ForgeGradle. Unfortunately, I'm still no closer to figuring it out. More on that soon!
10 October 2013:10:02 PM: Yeah, I'm back! :3 Well I added in some new features recently, for the new version! Yes, you can finally pick up Nitroglycerine in (custom) buckets! Yes, there are now crops in the Creep! Yes, there are numerous bug fixes! Look out for the next version, coming very soon!
20 February 2013: 10:20 PM: Took a sick day today, so I fixed the age old bug of crafting Creep Glass Panes only giving you one pane. Will upload in a minute or two.
26 January 2013: 3:45 PM: Well, I haven't written one of these in a while! I just released V3.0 guys! Happy Australia Day!
30 July 2012: 6:24 PM: Had to do this kind of quickly, a changelog is pending, but i have uploaded 2.1. Links available above.
30 July 2012: 8:19 AM: Oh, I just found the files for 2.1 lying around! I'm tweaking some tiny little things like Photonium burn time and block recipes, i will release 2.1 either this morning or tonight.
29 July 2012: 8:03 AM: Just an announcement: My next release of the Creep will probably be released for Minecraft 1.3. I will start working after ModLoader and DimensionAPI are updated, and release a ModLoader edition, and then wait until Forge has updated. This will stop people waiting for a few days for it to be updated.
1 July 2012: 9:19 PM: Just been screwing around for a few days with some code, and added in 'Photonium' which is like coal but for the Creep. V 2.1 up very soon! EDIT: Oh, yes this time I WILL do a Forge version.
26 May 2012: 9:04 PM: Just released V2.0 of The Creep! Many new features, such as Creep Cows, Creeper Knights and a bunch of other fancy stuff! See the 'Changelog' section for complete list.
25 May 2012: 8:11 AM: Version 2.0 SSP is ready for upload! Got school now, can anyone wait 7 hours?
21 May 2012:4:51 PM: Just applied crafting recipes for everything that can be crafted out of wood (except tools) to Creep Wood, Planks and Sticks! Now working on a new 'bonemeal'.
20 May 2012:6:17 PM: Well Creeper Knights are finished, both SSP(tested) and SMP(untested). Just need to make the texture a little better. Also have been working on leaves so they act more normal (can harvest with shears, and rarely drop creep saplings and gunpowder). Tried adding in mini creepers and failed... sorry guys. Ooh, a successful recompile! Testing, cya.
18 May 2012:7:27 PM: I've just added in a few things to my to-do list. It currently includes:- Backwards compatibility for 1.2.3 (requested).- Creeper Knights - Stopping the annoying mushroomy trees with no wood.- A lot of bugfixes.- A new version name so people with DEV versions can't go onto a server and screw it up.Also, I am currently on stand-by for developing this mod. With Minecraft 1.3 and a 'Modding API' on its way, it feels necessary to wait and see where this goes. Sorry for any delays, expect an update soon.
29 April 2012:6:31 PM: Full version finally released after nearly two months of work!!!
29 April 2012:12:36 PM: I have just finished the entire mod! I'm just cleaning up the code and texturing. A download should be up in a few hours!
29 April 2012:9:56 AM: Just uploaded a screenie of ECD explosions. Check it out!
28 April 2012:8:39 PM: Hey guys! First D.F woot! Just finalised the portal! Activate it with a creepium shard! Also re-shaped and re-textured it, has a custom sound and spawns particles! Also added ECD (Epic Creeper Dynamitium) with 3 times the power of TNT (your obsidian houses are fine). Full release will be sometime this week!
28 Apr 2012 - Added in a development feed.
29 Apr 2012 - Added the finished mod to the page!
27 Apr 2012 - Added in a progress bar for the mod (80% when first added).
1 Apr 2012 - Updated the version compatibility information.
31 Mar 2012 - Updated the post so that it says a new DEV release is out.
29 Mar 2012 - Updated the post so that it now says I am not using Forge.
25 Mar 2012 - Updated the post so that it now says I am using Forge.
18 Mar 2012 - Moved the thread to here. Added NinjaOfDarkness's dungeon idea to to-do list.
15 Mar 2012 - Updated the feature list so that it now says I'm working on tools, armor, trees and nitro.
12 Mar 2012 - First posted on The Creep, added a very incomplete feature list.
Here is the place where community activity is diaplayed! Most of the things I put in here are video reviews, but it is in no way specific!
Here is a video review by LightTrench from quite a while ago, which (I think) happens to be the first EVER video review of the mod! Thanks a million!
Another video review, this time by hgtpsh (I think I got that right )! Enjoy!
Here we have PopularMMO's showcase of the mod, with over 220,000 views!
Here's a mod spotlight by TeamTwist! It's a great summary of how to do things; I recommend this for those who are stuck!

can u plz gimme an installation guide cause my minecraft keeps crashing when i load a world. I also downloaded all the required mods
Did u read the README.TXT in the zip file?
Anyway here's what it says:
1. Download Risugami's ModLoader and install to minecraft.jar
2. Download SDK's ModLoaderMP and install to minecraft.jar
3. Download Pudelhund's Dimension API and install to minecraft.jar
4. Install everything from the 'Jar' folder to minecraft.jar
5. Copy the 'mods' folder into .minecraft, choosing to overwrite or add to existing folders.
IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING ERRORS:
1. Install everything from the 'mods/Creep Dimension Mod' folder to minecraft.jar
2. Start with a fresh .jar instead of a .jar with other mods installed.
3. If errors still occur, force update Minecraft.
4. If errors still occur, you're screwed.
INSTALLING OTHER MODS:
1. This mod is currently INCOMPATIBLE with mods that add new biomes (however i will take requests for making compatibility packs.
2. Install Optifine AFTER Dimension API
3. I WILL NEVER MAKE A FORGE COMPATIBILITY PACK. Frankly, Forge sucks. Most mods aren't compatible with it, and making them compatible with it is an ****. If someone else makes the Creep compatible with Forge, i'll put it up for download.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
The creeper was once the crowning jewel of Minecraft... Until those retarded Endermen... FIGHT FOR CREEPER RIGHTS!!! SUPPORT THE CREEP MOD!

The following set of instructions detail how to install the mod. These instructions should be followed as precisely as possible, especially if you are new to mod installation. If you have any problems, double-check that you followed these instructions. There is also a small section on errors below.
1. Download the Creep Mod from the 'Downloads' section of this post.
2. Download the latest version of Minecraft Forge Installer for the version of Minecraft you are using at http://files.minecraftforge.net/ (for the Creep Mod, the corresponding Minecraft version is noted at the end of the version number, eg. V3.1.02_1.6.4 is compatible with Minecraft 1.6.4).
3. Choose 'Install Client' on the Minecraft Forge installer and proceed with the installation.
4. Access your .minecraft folder (there are various tutorials on how to do this if you are unsure).
5. Navigate to the 'mods' folder, creating it if it doesn't exist.
6. Copy the Creep Mod file you downloaded in Step 1 into the 'mods' folder.
7. Launch Minecraft using the new 'Forge' profile.
8. You're finished! Enjoy the mod!
Installation - V2.1 and prior:
(Note: This guide is for the Forge Edition of the Creep Mod. For the ModLoader Edition, skip Step 2 and ignore any references to Minecraft Forge. Also, in Step 4, download the regular version of DimensionAPI.)
1. Download the Creep Mod from the 'Downloads section of this thread.
2. Download the corresponding version of Minecraft Forge.
3. Download the corresponding version of Risugami's ModLoader.
4. Download the corresponding version of SDK's ModLoaderMP.
5. Download the corresponding version of Pudelhund's DimensionAPI.
6. Access your .minecraft folder.
7. Navigate to the 'minecraft.jar' file in the 'bin' directory. Make sure your Minecraft installation is clean (in other words, unmodded) before you start.
8. Open 'minecraft.jar' with archiving software (I recommend 7Zip or WinRAR).
9. Delete the META-INF folder, and then copy the contents of the mods you downloaded in the following order: first Forge, second ModLoader, third ModLoaderMP, fourth DimensionAPI and last of all the Creep Mod.
10. Load up Minecraft and enjoy!
Troubleshooting Errors:
1. Disable all of your mods and re-enable them one by one. This way you can check if a particular mod is causing you grief.
2. Make sure you have a clean minecraft.jar BEFORE you start, especially if you are using V3.0.01_1.6.2 and above.
3. Ask a question on this thread! I will see what I can do to help. It is always helpful if you include your crash log (the crash log is the blue-windowed text that comes up whenever Minecraft crashes).
4. If you are wondering why there is only a ModLoader version for the Server-side mod up until V2.1, it is because BOTH CLIENT VERSIONS ARE COMPATIBLE WITH IT.4. And of course: MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS PRECISELY.
Information Regarding Other Mods:
Every version of the Creep Mod after V2.1 uses Minecraft Forge. Because of this, it should be fully compatible with other Forge mods, unless you have ID conflicts (this can be fixed by changing the values in '.minecraft/config/TheCreep.cfg'). This also goes for all Forge versions up to and including V2.1. ModLoader versions up to V2.1 may be a bit more temperamental, but should still work with 95% of mods. As of V3.2.01_1.7.2, it should be even more compatible with pretty much everything, due to Mojang phasing out object IDs for the most part!
This is arguably the most important part of this thread: the place where you come to get your green, Creeper-shaped goodies!

Should you need any further encouragement, I managed to find a plethora of drool-inducing screenshots to post. Here we are!
I have arrived! Awesome!
I found a lake (or what passes for one in the Creep).
HUGSSSSSSSS?
What'cha lookin' at?
Shiny!
After I found food in the form of Stickgrass, I decided to get a bit industrial...
This section is where I will keep you all updated on my development progress! Be warned that this section is prone to technobabble.
6 March 2014: 8:33 PM: Okay, so I was a day late. I was just checking tt everything was in order. Enjoy!
4 March 2014: 9:15 PM: Going to add an update tomorrow! Changelog is already up.
2 March 2014: 9:24 PM: Update Day! It has arrived! Uploading now, and running a final test of the .jar file! Woo!
1 March 2014:1:31 PM: I ran the mod obfuscation yesterday, and tried booting up. It instantly crashed. What was the source of this mysterious error? I had obfuscate strings in the frickin' source files. Genius. Anyway, it's pretty much done now, I just have to decide whether I want to add some more stuff or push for a release.
27 February 2014: 6:22 PM: Well, I've been ironing out bugs these last three days, and there's been nowhere to go but up! I've got the dimension itself fully functional on both client and server, and I've even found a bit of time to squeeze in some extra content! I'll brush over some of the most notable changes as of yet, but the rest will be in the release changelog. I know many of you complained of lag, so I dailed back the island generator quite a bit (they don't generate as big or as high), and I removed some redundant code. It's probably now around 2x faster, with little to no impact on atmosphere or gameplay.
24 February 2014: 8:26 PM: You won't believe this, guys, but I got rid of all of the errors! I'm gonna try and run it now, but I'm not expecting much from it. Next it will be a matter of clearing up bugs. Be back soon!
24 February 2014: 5:07 PM: This is monumental. Today I cleared up ALL the errors in the main mod file. Also, I managed to fix my WorldProvider and a whole bunch of arbitrary files, so hooray for that! And last of all, it really is true! There are no more block OR item ID's, and for entities you get 256 UNIQUE id's per mod. Much code, many ID, wow.
23 February 2014: 5:42 PM:I figured out how to use the new dev workspace! Hooray! Also, OH MY GOD. I had a moment of realisation. YOU DON'T NEED BLOCK ID'S ANYMORE. THINK OF THE POSSIBILITIES. Also, screw you Minecraft Forums for trying to correct 'realisation'. Here in Australia we don't spell it with a 'z'. 'Till next time.
22 February 2014: 7:45 PM: Well, would you look at that! The thread got a much needed revamping today, and I also took another look at ForgeGradle. Unfortunately, I'm still no closer to figuring it out. More on that soon!
10 October 2013: 10:02 PM: Yeah, I'm back! :3 Well I added in some new features recently, for the new version! Yes, you can finally pick up Nitroglycerine in (custom) buckets! Yes, there are now crops in the Creep! Yes, there are numerous bug fixes! Look out for the next version, coming very soon!
20 February 2013: 10:20 PM: Took a sick day today, so I fixed the age old bug of crafting Creep Glass Panes only giving you one pane. Will upload in a minute or two.
26 January 2013: 3:45 PM: Well, I haven't written one of these in a while! I just released V3.0 guys! Happy Australia Day!
30 July 2012: 6:24 PM: Had to do this kind of quickly, a changelog is pending, but i have uploaded 2.1. Links available above.
30 July 2012: 8:19 AM: Oh, I just found the files for 2.1 lying around! I'm tweaking some tiny little things like Photonium burn time and block recipes, i will release 2.1 either this morning or tonight.
29 July 2012: 8:03 AM: Just an announcement: My next release of the Creep will probably be released for Minecraft 1.3. I will start working after ModLoader and DimensionAPI are updated, and release a ModLoader edition, and then wait until Forge has updated. This will stop people waiting for a few days for it to be updated.
1 July 2012: 9:19 PM: Just been screwing around for a few days with some code, and added in 'Photonium' which is like coal but for the Creep. V 2.1 up very soon! EDIT: Oh, yes this time I WILL do a Forge version.
26 May 2012: 9:04 PM: Just released V2.0 of The Creep! Many new features, such as Creep Cows, Creeper Knights and a bunch of other fancy stuff! See the 'Changelog' section for complete list.
25 May 2012: 8:11 AM: Version 2.0 SSP is ready for upload! Got school now, can anyone wait 7 hours?
21 May 2012:4:51 PM: Just applied crafting recipes for everything that can be crafted out of wood (except tools) to Creep Wood, Planks and Sticks! Now working on a new 'bonemeal'.
20 May 2012:6:17 PM: Well Creeper Knights are finished, both SSP(tested) and SMP(untested). Just need to make the texture a little better. Also have been working on leaves so they act more normal (can harvest with shears, and rarely drop creep saplings and gunpowder). Tried adding in mini creepers and failed... sorry guys. Ooh, a successful recompile! Testing, cya.
18 May 2012:7:27 PM: I've just added in a few things to my to-do list. It currently includes:- Backwards compatibility for 1.2.3 (requested).- Creeper Knights
29 April 2012:6:31 PM: Full version finally released after nearly two months of work!!!
29 April 2012:12:36 PM: I have just finished the entire mod! I'm just cleaning up the code and texturing. A download should be up in a few hours!
29 April 2012:9:56 AM: Just uploaded a screenie of ECD explosions. Check it out!
28 April 2012:8:39 PM: Hey guys! First D.F woot! Just finalised the portal! Activate it with a creepium shard! Also re-shaped and re-textured it, has a custom sound and spawns particles! Also added ECD (Epic Creeper Dynamitium) with 3 times the power of TNT (your obsidian houses are fine). Full release will be sometime this week!

Here is the place where community activity is diaplayed! Most of the things I put in here are video reviews, but it is in no way specific!
Another video review, this time by hgtpsh (I think I got that right
Here we have PopularMMO's showcase of the mod, with over 220,000 views!
Here's a mod spotlight by TeamTwist! It's a great summary of how to do things; I recommend this for those who are stuck!
