Thought I would make a slight update on progress so no one thinks we are dead or anything.

In the hectic transition to updating to 1.7, I have finally removed 90% of the 2000 errors that it created. By the weekend, we should at least be bug free and ready to move on to adding new things.

I may consider updating 0.8.5a to 1.7 next week depending on how the progression looks. It will all come down to

-How close is 1.8
-How long will it take to add in all the new stuff I am implementing for Digimobs 0.9.0
-If there is enough requests for it.

Is there any need for help with modeling and or texturing if so can i make any models or texture you need or just make some just if you dont want to wait or model it or texture it when the code is ready

According to the model contribution bit on the (first page), anyone can model whatever they feel like as long as its within our guidelines, which has to be submitted to our forum (link is also on the first page)

i want to have a baby digimon so how i can found an egg? i don't understand that "found in beginning forest", please help me!!!

It's quite straight forward. "Found in Beginning Forest"
Beginning Forest... one of the biome's added with the mod. You'll know it when you see it as there is a lot of colour in the biome.

Greeeeetings loyal and patient digimobs fans.



It's finally about that time.

Currently finishing up the final touches on Digimobs(0.9.0), the 1.7 version, and I am here to just outline some of the major changes and additions.

-First off, upon the arrival of this update, I will be loading a language file up to our forums. Since I'm not exactly fluent in any other languages, it will be up to the community to edit the language file to their respective languages. I will provide further instructions on how to edit them. But, once they are edited, I will stick them in the mod and people will be able to play in other languages! I know this has been requested a few times, so soon it will be possible.

-Changes to the way hunger works and the way energy works. Long story short, starving will no longer kill the digimon, as it causes some issues on SMP server. Instead, there will be a penalty for a digimon while it is starving. Energy on the other hand has been completely redone. Energy will no longer be lost over time. Instead, intereacting with digimon in various ways will allow them to gain energy, and once their energy reaches its max, they will be able to digivolve. Also done to alleviate some bugs that came with SMP.

-Changes to mounted digimon. The riding glove will now let you directly control the digimon, and they are also much faster, and worth using.(maybe flying mounts will be coming soon after this update?)

-And of course more digimon. I took a count the other day, and there are over 30 new digimon being added this update. Most noticeably all the baby digimon will be added in. It is kind of exciting to say we have knocked out all the baby digimon that exist! and..oh wait..look..its a teaser picture



And many more things, that will be outlined in the changelog once the update goes live.


Get excited!!!

Mini shout out to Dartron for having one of the most entertaining youtube playthroughs of digimobs I have seen. You should let me put those up on the front page.

i spotted a bug when i attack any mob with my hand it makes minecraft crash!

going to need more information than that.
First off, you should have got a crash report, can you upload that in a spoiler please?
Secondly, which MC version were you using, and which Digimobs version. Forge version will matter too. And by mob, do you mean a digimon mob? or a minecraft mob? Have you got other mods installed as well?

See, there are many reasons it could have crashed so we need as much information as possible. Thank you.

Well thanks to plantatasic's mostly useless whining, I finally found the bug causing this issue. Unfortunately I am still working on a fix for it, but I have at least stopped the crashing. So if you were one of the early people who have already downloaded 1.7.2, please redownload to prevent the crashes.

hello I really like this mod but in this new version does not work for me, I load the minecraft but when I enter a map not shown me any digimon

It's believed that the spawn rates have been reduced because of the update to 1.7.2 with the new forge layout. Hopefully in the next update the spawn rates should be increased to counter this effect.
