I run all my stuff off of MCP and Eclipse, Always I do a few test runs on Minecraft itself

Please Place a skull on your head and tell me if any errors pop up. The texture file path for you might be messed up for the Skull textures.

The reason I asked how do you have Harken Scythe installed, is because sometimes there are Magic Launcher Issues, Optifine, MCpatcher, ect. problems that mess up texture paths.

If you could, please send a screen shot of the the white box missing texture.

Noobish question How do I do that cause I take a screen and put in the forum like move but it doesnt

Edit: Removed optifine and that did it oh well no more high quality texture packs for me
Edit Again: Hmm strange restarted mine craft and white boxes again oh well I wont wear em at least I can place them

Just make sure your Forge and all the mods your using are updated.

As for Textures, I believe with the 1.5 release, Minecraft can handle any textures now without the need of Opitfine or MCpatcher.

This is due to all textures are now their own .png file, rather then a .png sheet.


@Others: If wearing a Skull produces the same "white boxes" for you, please let me know.

I'd still use optifine regardless though... it's too good of a fps increase not to. c:

Hm...
I'm having a weird situation...
mobs don't spawn at night....
can anyone help me?
(tried reinstall minecraft)

Don't hate me for asking, but its it on peaceful?
And by Mobs, do you mean all of them or just Harken Scythe added mobs?

How do you craft the Necronomicon? What is the exact recipe now?

I'm having this issue too. This bug affected all the hostile mobs, but the friendly one are significantly reduced instead of greatly reduced. I use Rei's Minimap with entities radar on and I can see some red dots (hostile mobs) in the map, but only a few and underground. The strange thing is that only my survival map, in which I use a lot the mod. The other maps that I use for testing features/redstone seems not to be affected.
Edit: And no, I set the difficulty to easy and changing the same doesn't affect the spawn rate.

As I can remember, is the same:
N N N
R R N
R R N

R= Rotten flesh N= Necromicon page

Seeing a collaboration with thaumcraft would be really cool

Once the mod itself is to a point where Jade is satisfied, I'm sure he'll work with more mod compatibility. But I do echo the desire to see some cross mod material. Thaumcraft and Harken Scythe are so far my favorite magic based mods for Minecraft. Not much Jade can do though till Thaumcraft API is also updated to 1.5.x, though.

Hm. And are there other ways of getting the pages other than buying them? And how can you use it exactly?

Sorry to be a complete newb here, but the original post is very outdated and incomplete...

Very odd too, let me ask around and see if others too are getting this issue.

Far as I am aware, mobs have be spawning normal for me.

I just want to be clear that I am still using Forge Build: 601. Maybe the newest version of Forge has a Entity Spawning issue? I'll update my Minecraft and Forge and see if I get the same oddity of Hostible Mob spawning.

Can be bought for 30 emeralds from the librarian villager or can be found in any dungeon, blacksmith, starter chest.

Soon the Necronomicon will allow you to ReAnimate fallen souls back to life as a Spectral "Mob type".

In other words....
-Slay a chicken with a scythe or Soulsteal Augment.
-Instead of collecting the soul with a Essence Keeper, hold down right click with the Necronomicon in hand to utter dark words.
-Will cost I am thinking 10 blood + the soul.
-The chicken will come back to life as a Spectral Chicken.
-Feed the new minion a Creepball to tame it.
-Now this Spectral Chicken will protect its master for about 5 - 10 mins. (Just like the wolf).

Re-Animation is suppose to be a temperately pet system, that is cheap to cast. Hardest part is collecting the Necronomicon pages from your adventures. I feel this will bring a solid Necromancer feel to Harken Scythe.

*** Next update is the ReAnimation Update ***

You know what would be another fun mob at add? Banshees.

You could also add in haunted tools and books, much like other mobs have if you so desired, such as the Primitive Mobs mod, Grimoire of Gaia, and Twilight Forest. Though same time might be better to leave them out for mod compatibility (except banshee... I think the grimoire of gaia mod doesn't do well with mod compatibility so you might as well make your own)

It would be nice to have another source of such mobs though. I like Primitive Mobs, but I really don't care for some of the mobs it adds at the same time (mostly the creepers.)

Would be interesting to add in some haunted books that spawn from library blocks... XD

Maybe a spawner disguised as a library block that always spawns haunted books? The spawner itself doesn't drop books, but the haunted books have a 80% chance of dropping a book, 10% chance at giving 2-4 pieces of paper, 5% chance at giving a necronomicon page, or a 5% chance of dropping a random enchanted book.

Sounds like a good idea.

You could probably set it up that world generated bookshelves have a small chance to be replaced with the haunted bookshelf spawner... Be fun to go into a village house and start getting attacked by haunted books. Lmfao.

only hostile and I'm in normal(as always)

Hey Jade! Could you post a picture of a Lost Soul so that We know what they look like?
