On the one hand bringing new "Mobs", in this case player models is difficult. BUT the difficult part is to write a good AI, and players dont need an AI and because the doppelgangers themselves only turn into mobs in their "normal" form and have all the same AI it is only a graphical difficulty.

b-b-b-bump!

One more idea for the doppelseeds: they transform you form only beeing in your inventory for 5 to 10 minutes

So, someone could pick one up on accident (assuming they downloaded without reading about the mod) and, after the screen blacks out, they become a doppelganger? Souns great.

No news updates at the moment, still waiting for Pigudelta to get back to me. Maybe if others PM'd him (assuming that's not against the rules) he'd respond faster.

Honestly if I was a mod creator I would be clamoring to be allowed to make this. I've been trying my own mods also however none of them being up to the caliber of this difficulty. However if I ever do get enough experience(most likely never to happen), I would love to make this. But for the time being all I can do is be hopeful. Excellent thread by the way. Nice and organized.

I think its time for a BUMPdont you think?

I'm going to be adding another poll...eventually. I don't really have ideas aplenty for what to ask.

In the mean time, page 1 displays the results for the first poll.

You know what would go great with a mod like this? mo creatures support. Even better would be mo creeps and weirdos.

Oh, definitely. A list of possible effects (things like faster movement, wall climbing, poison immunity) that the game can use if they're put into a text document somewhere. That would make it compatible with any mod, given a small amount of time on the modder's side.

Side note: feeling kinda sad that this topic lost its "hot" rating. But the ideas can only be developed so far until someone chooses to actually use them.

BUMP!

Finally i have thought of a good way of enderman teleportation in SMP: Your soul moves out of your body like in SSP but the time doesnt stop, so your body is still there and can be attacked by monsters, etc. So it is more important to look for a save spot. And the teleport-where-you-look function could be availabe by sneaking and pressing the teleport key.

Oh, so like the antagonist (bad-guy) in Chronicles of Riddick? I like it.

Might not work for SSP, but since you said SMP, it could definitely work.

Question:
If you could add one thing, change one thing, and/or remove one thing, what would you add/change/remove?

I would change the poll question answers so there is chicken on there =D. Ok anyway, whats the news on that guy that said he was "Sold?" =P I am still on the edge of my seat for this mod to be made =D

1) I changed the poll.
2) I don't know. He read my question, as far as I can tell, but I haven't heard from him since he asked how he could help.

This mod is A wonderfull Idea. Also as just a question, will this mod have an api so that mobs from other mods will be able to be dopplegang(ered)?

Ideally, yes.

Quote from honos_sillie

with doppelseeds maybe if you are sick that some really crazy stuff happen like in the gulliver mod that you grow really big and destroy your house and that you become really small and cant open doors etc.

I hadn't thought of growing/shrinking, but why not?

Well, some _possibly good news. Someone who's already made a shapeshifting mod has said that this post contains "a lot of good ideas, and [he likes] the doppleganger one a lot."

I'd recommend checking the mod out, but don't get your hopes up just yet -- he said he would be busy with exams, and even then would maybe add new features, like doppelgangers.

In unrelated news, I will not be leaving in June, as previously thought. I will instead be leaving in September.

Are there any mods out there that this mod could be merged with? I know figuring it out with the mod author could be a bit tough,but it could get this mod made. Thaumcraft 2 for example,Maybe you could research the animal you want to Doppelgang (Hope that's the right term) and each additional research could yeild higher levels? dunno, I just really want to see this mod happen.

Sure has been a while since anybody said anything about this. I guess that's because nobody's gotten back to me. Unless someone finds a willing modder, this idea will die soon.
