"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried. Most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad Gita; Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and, to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says, 'Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.' I suppose we all thought that, one way or another."
If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one.

Many thanks for continuing this excellent mod, TheBlockMonkey and my thanks also for the link in your OP and for your polite request to re-use my original airship textures. As soon as I get my next update GS v10 out I will update my OP to link back here also.
Fans of the airship mod might be interested to know I have more airship skins in my OP, created at the same time I made the original textures for pchan3, I'm assuming these will still be relevant to this mod, so you can pick and choose:
Here are some of the skins I provided to pchan3 during first development of the mod:
Airship Boat Types
(will probably need renaming as per mod instructions) boat 3 is open to the elements at the bottom, so you can look below between your imaginary feet. Only the pedals and seat stop you falling to your doom! Boat 2 is the pirate boat with front cannons, 3 and 4 have extra cannons and sandbags.
You may also want a separate 'balloon' skin. I'm not sure yet how TheBlockMonkey is using the textures in the mod, however here are my designs so far!
HD Balloon Skin Types
(rename to 'balloon' and follow mod instructions for use)
I also provided pchan3 with a complete set of Steampunk icons, way back in the mists of Minecraft history. These are probably already in the mod.
It's nice to see the mod is still so popular after all this time.
Fair winds and God bless all who sail in her...have fun!
Love this mod, just a few issues. First off, it still crashes when I break it for me (or at least it did once). I have 1.2 and Minecraft 1.4.7
Secondly, you should move the throttle or whatever is in the middle of the ship. It blocks your view since it sits in front of the player.
Finally, if possible, I would build in a "locking mechanism" that causes it to lock all horizontal movement when one block above a solid block. This would make it easier to land.
Aw shoot, another mod that ended up going to Forge. I used to have this back in 1.2.5, alongside Better Than Wolves, but I guess that's out of the question now...
If I ever bite the bullet and remove BTWMod, this'll be the first one I come back to. Nice work.

You may not have to "bite the bullet" as FC is considering forge support for btw.
Finally, I loved my airships, to the point I used to build Steampunk pads for em (Helepads, but with a big S instead of an H). Now I can't wait to update to 1.4.6 even more (waiting on 2 core mods to my world that effect world gen, so I can't update without them sadly).
why not simply make a new world to wait in? cause as long as you don't open the world you can keep the generation without any problems. i know the following from experience in many, MANY mods.
So, i know the changelog says that the crash bug is fixed, but i still crash when I break it, if im breaking it i cant tell, i jus punch it a bunch and it crashes and i can load that world anymore, is this only on y side? or what? and can i fix it?
I greatly enjoy this mod. Thank you so much for reviving it.
I have noticed a few small issues with it, though. When I turn the ship, it moves in chunks rather than smoothly. I'm not sure if this is a bug or not. The top balloon part also passes through things, like the ceiling. Is that normal?
Additionally, I was wondering if it would be possible to make a new system for firing arrows? I was thinking that you could press a button and it switches to a firing screen, with a target and everything. I've been trying with how it is now and, frankly, I'll be lucky if I can hit the broad side of a barn.
Thank you so much for updating this. I'm not much for coding, but I'm good with minecraft textures. If there's anything I can do to help you, be it with this mod or another just drop me a line.
it always says everywhere i read that this mod works with forge AND MODLOADER.Well let me tell you that it doesn't work with modloader.I try to install this mod search it on diffrent sites but nope it doesn't work on modloader so tell me if im doing something wrong or does it not work with modloader
It's not available for SMP yet.

But please make it run in multiplayer-mode...

By the way, I think you have earned this:
But, take your time dude, you've earn it.
I get the same issue...I hope this is fixed soon, I just restarted my server with sky islands as the main world because this mod was available! Hah.
