I'm posting this on all three of the mod threads that are being updated, so I'm certainly open to any ideas right now! What would you like to see?

PRE-RELEASE of 0.1.0 now available!

The textures are not complete, so I'm looking for general feedback please!

Server is opening tonight, this will be required! Make sure you sign up on http://www.silvania.co.uk/mods/forums so you can get in!

I like what I see so far. If you ever need help with anything (textures, building, etc;) I am always willing to apply my hand.

Thanks. If you go sign up on my forums, I'm opening a creative server VERY soon for people to help me make buildings which will be used in future world generation from this mod.
By very soon, I mean probably in the next hour or so:

Aw I dont have time today to check it out..
Well Is it 24/7 and open to the public? (I suggest a plotworld if so If youve thought of that ignore this suggestion)
If so Ill come on tommorow
p.s. I gues so but still ask it : Is the mod required to join?

Yeah it's 24/7 and public to anyone who registers on my forums. Have to go there to get the IP

I'm in the middle of setting up Residence right now. I was gonna use Towny (Been using that since Bukkit was born) but it doesn't work for 1.6, and I think residence will be more flexible for people to choose any size of plot. Gonna get some sort of block logging plugin too.


And yes, this mod and FlenixRoads are both required. There are download links on the IP thread on my forums.

This does work for 1.6.2 right? The reason im asking is because on planet minecraft, I saw the mod for 1.5.2, and plus the folder i downloaded had the same update. Is it because you didnt update the mod when you updated it to 1.6.2? But anyways great mod!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Butter for you, and diamond too!

It's 1.6.2 both here and on PMC, but it was only updated on both yesterday so that might be why you're confused. But yay, butter!

Quote from kokonus

Ok I joined And I didnt realize How many blocks you already added
But you might want to put on some tips Since there are just 2 buildings and no explaination How to claim land...
Well I really am stunned by how much you added already...
Although I have seen allot of unfinished stuff I havent found a bug yet.

yeah I'll be adding explanations into my towers ground floor and moving the spawn inside. There's not much to grasp though really, the only rules are keep the theme in cities to modern city, and roads in the city are to be 9-wide. If you want to build away from the city make sure you go at least 1000 blocks then build whatever- another city is fine but needs to be an amount of land between them

Flenix's DevWeek begins today! For more information, check here:
http://www.silvania.co.uk/blog/?p=74

For the majority of the week I'll also be on IRC, #silvania (esper.net)- Chat on the official mod server is linked so if you don't use IRC just log into the server and you can talk to me there.

In my opinion you could partner with other people to make this mod better.
ex.
computers - computercraft
railroad - railcraft

and you could find more to fit your needs.

I've actually spoken to Dan about CC integration already, he wasn't interested. I don't see any benefit of partnering with CovertJaguar though - What benefit would I get code-wise from working with Railcraft?
The only time I could see that being useful is for city generation, and I don't need to work with him to add RC support

Quote from ArtaxiasTheWise

If there are villagers that are going to live a life of crime, then it would cool to see police who attack/arrest those who attack the player or other NPC's. Just a thought, I know it would be difficult to implement.

Police are planned. I've actually got a pretty cool idea for them - Players will have a "wanted status" and once they get this, until they're killed or captured that wanted status means all police will try and get them.
City generation will have a pre-defined jail cell (Players can define this cell too), and the police will teleport the player to the nearest cell.

Quote from tman1123

Ok I only brought up railcraft because one of your items is a railroad ticket.
Thanks for letting me know you have tried with CC.

Yeah, some items will actually not have a use, or can be hooked by other mods to give them a use (In the future)
However, I do plan to make various barriers which can open/close when being interacted with with something like the ticket.

Quote from Re_Write

This has potential.

If you do add the ability for NPCs to work do you think that you will lengthen the day? And also, how do you plan on implementing the economy? Will prices be a random deviation from a standard, or will it be somewhat driven by what NPC's buy?

You could really go nuts with making a supersmart AI for the npcs.... I guess if you needed help I'd be willing to lend a hand.

I don't have any plans to change the length of day, because I've not really decided on NPC scripting yet. At least for now, NPCs will be working 24/7, but in the future I might make them walk home at night or something. It's certainly not something I'll do soon though

Initially, the economy will be pretty static. I would love to make it dynamic eventually, at least for single-player, but I don't know how well that would really work for a server (It'd be very easy for player A to give player B money and ask him to buy things, because B gets it cheaper than A as he has less money or something)

Quote from xuma202

Well there are still some rendering bugs (Objects disappear; The escalator is bigger than the block, ..) and many textures are missing.
Though I like the fact that the Laptop is running Chrome and Minecraft

Hope this projects continues.

And one suggestion: Please add Computercraft (http://www.computercraft.info) support to the ATM!

This is why it's Alpha. As for the escalator, if it was actually 1x1x1 imagine how silly it would look...

And what benefit would there be of using CC for the ATM? If anything I thought you'd suggest it for the computer - but at any rate, I've already spoken to Dan200 and he wasn't interested. Need to add that to the FAQ actually


And yeah, the laptop is just a really low-res screenshot actually. I dunno why Steve became a leftie though, thats some sort of strange render bug but it doesn't really matter too much

I just wanted to remind anyone interested in my mods that I'm currently working on my main mod, Remula a lot!

If you've not been a good person and haven't signed up on my forums, followed me on twitter or liked me on facebook (I only ask one out of three!) then you've probably not heard of Remula.
Remula is an awesome tech mod with loads of new worlds to visit and things to kill. It's very early WIP but I started it way before FlenixCities!

I've been posting more info on my forums about it. Here's a thread about the world I'm aiming to get complete soonish. I want to release a pre-alpha in the next week or two, but if there's enough interest it will be sooner!

http://silvania.co.uk/mods/forums/index.php?topic=87.0

For anyone interested, Remula's pre-alpha just came out!
Why aren't you already following me on Twitter anyway?

Version 0.1.2 released!

Fixed a few textures and tidied some stuff up. Nothing major, but worth a download
