Modest Texturer, Modeler, and Idea Provider. Can someone buy me Terraria, Borderlands 2, Goat Simulator, or Dead Island? Check my Profile for my contents, which includes a(n outdated) texture pack and a mod request! OcD Simple Add-On!
The update is finally here with TONS OF NEW FEATURES, including an API, over 40 Achievements, new Blocks, new Items, 16 new Masks, a new Quest, and more! The mod that started as a combat add-on has somehow transformed into THE Zelda mod, a mod for Zelda fans, by Zelda fans. As such, I am hoping to change the name to one more fitting, and I'd like to hear your ideas! The name that I have come up with is "Zelda: A Link to the Craft"; let me know if you like it, hate it, or can come up with one that's better!
I'm excited to announce the first release of an API for Zelda Sword Skills, featuring lots of interfaces that should allow other mods to take advantage of many of the built-in mechanics, such as various damage types and effects, block-item interactions such as lifting and smashing, and triggering special events when items are dropped near fairy pools. All that the mod needs to do is implement the appropriate interface(s) in their blocks, items, or entities to automatically take advantage of the ZSS mechanics, and I will try to add more to the API as time goes on. I hope to see many ZSS-compatible mods in the future xD
This update features some very nice additions for map-makers: Barrier blocks that cannot be destroyed or moved except with a pair of special Gauntlets, and Pegs, both Wooden and Rusty, that require a hammer to overcome. Both block types can be manipulated and destroyed (with the right gear) even in Adventure Mode, making them especially suitable for custom maps.
Map Makers, also please note the change to the boomerang - the basic boomerang can activate any kind of button, be it wood or stone, but can no longer activate levers; the magic boomerang can activate both levers and all buttons. This should provide finer access control, since the upgraded boomerang can access more areas than the non-upgraded version.
Additionally, thanks to the efforts of Jones7789 and Gaming_Confusion, 16 new masks are now available!!! Yes, 16, so be sure to bump up the rep of those two fellows any time you see them in the forums! The masks are accompanied of course by the Happy Mask Salesman and his mask-trading mini-quest, though some masks are found only in dungeon chests.
Jones7789 also contributed many other textures, including the various armor sets, as well as some models that have not yet made it into the mod.

Please let me know if you are able and willing to begin such a project, and I will do my best to contribute / provide corrections to the pages as they are added.

Thanks everyone for their support and contributions, and I hope you enjoy this update.
Thats sure a BIG update now we just need someone to make a map with the mod.
BTW the new armor texture is looking awesome.
Oh, I expected you to know all about the update from Github xD The armor textures were made by Jones7789, so be sure to give him props for that, as well as the 12+ masks he contributed.
I've got a better new name for the mod. What do you think of The Legend of Zelda: A Block to the Past? Its the same name as a map made by someone but It's a good name, isn't it? You could edit it a little if you want.

Thanks for the suggestion, but not only is that name already used, it's almost identical to the one I proposed. Try again
How about Ocarina Of Mine? Get It? Mine Rhymes with Time. Also, how do you befriend villagers? Just trade with them a lot?
How about "Zelda: Legend of Minecraft"?
Read the "Secrets and Spoilers" section on the main page and you will find out. Almost everything you could possibly want to know about the mod is on the main page, and if it's not, chances are you can find out about it either in the config file or in the game via achievements.
Any tips on where to look to find a Fairy Fountain? And maybe you could make the fairy fountains look nicer. I'll work on some ideas for them. I've got a few in mind.

Any tips on where to look to find a Fairy Fountain? And maybe you could make the fairy fountains look nicer. I'll work on some ideas for them. I've got a few in mind.
Actually they are randomly generated when a dungeon is generated(you can increase the spawn rate in config), ok s to be quick you will find one based on your luck and the config settings.
No, seriously? An Extended Diamond Pickaxe with Efficiency X isn't 'very' effective?
OcD Simple Add-On!

Curse PremiumI'm excited to announce the first release of an API for Zelda Sword Skills, featuring lots of interfaces that should allow other mods to take advantage of many of the built-in mechanics, such as various damage types and effects, block-item interactions such as lifting and smashing, and triggering special events when items are dropped near fairy pools. All that the mod needs to do is implement the appropriate interface(s) in their blocks, items, or entities to automatically take advantage of the ZSS mechanics, and I will try to add more to the API as time goes on. I hope to see many ZSS-compatible mods in the future xD
This update features some very nice additions for map-makers: Barrier blocks that cannot be destroyed or moved except with a pair of special Gauntlets, and Pegs, both Wooden and Rusty, that require a hammer to overcome. Both block types can be manipulated and destroyed (with the right gear) even in Adventure Mode, making them especially suitable for custom maps.
Map Makers, also please note the change to the boomerang - the basic boomerang can activate any kind of button, be it wood or stone, but can no longer activate levers; the magic boomerang can activate both levers and all buttons. This should provide finer access control, since the upgraded boomerang can access more areas than the non-upgraded version.
Additionally, thanks to the efforts of Jones7789 and Gaming_Confusion, 16 new masks are now available!!! Yes, 16, so be sure to bump up the rep of those two fellows any time you see them in the forums! The masks are accompanied of course by the Happy Mask Salesman and his mask-trading mini-quest, though some masks are found only in dungeon chests.
Jones7789 also contributed many other textures, including the various armor sets, as well as some models that have not yet made it into the mod.

- Hero Bow and Slingshot now zoom in while aiming

- Broken Giant's Knife may now only be repaired by renaming a blacksmith to Medigoron

- Pulling entities with the hookshot often interrupted, caused by hookshot continuing on to hit a block
- Possible null pointer exception when getting the Broken Sword icon
- Potential exception displaying Broken Sword name when using new versions on old saves
- Toggle auto-attack chat message displaying incorrectly
- Combos not incrementing with melee weapons other than swords
- Combos not updating when no sword held, allowing combo to be continued later
- Combos not showing as finished when they should
- Combos not correctly setting to null when finished, sometimes allowing them to be continued
- Combos were not using localizations for text display
Also note that I have had to remove the change log archive from the main post due to content size restrictions; you can still find all of the update logs here.
If one or more people would be able, I think it is high time that this mod got itself a Wiki page on which to post all the items, skills, hints, etc., rather than continuing to have such a gigantic main page. Please let me know if you are able and willing to begin such a project, and I will do my best to contribute / provide corrections to the pages as they are added.
Thanks everyone for their support and contributions, and I hope you enjoy this update.
Cheers,
coolAlias

Curse PremiumHah, that means you've found a secret room! Even the most efficient pickaxe might not be effective against a material too strong to break
Oh, I expected you to know all about the update from Github xD The armor textures were made by Jones7789, so be sure to give him props for that, as well as the 12+ masks he contributed.
Awesome! Please post a link to your work in progress / completed map page when you can so people can check it out.
Lol, well, it is sort of an adventure-rpg mod, which is exactly why I released Dynamic Sword Skills as a separate mod

Curse PremiumHow about "Zelda: Legend of Minecraft"?
Read the "Secrets and Spoilers" section on the main page and you will find out. Almost everything you could possibly want to know about the mod is on the main page, and if it's not, chances are you can find out about it either in the config file or in the game via achievements.
and did you know this mod will go perfect with navi from famguide
