They will form randomly around the aether, with their danger being blowing you off the platforms you are standing on.
They should continue forever, until stopped by meeting something, or going too far from the player.
You should be able to see them coming, as lines in the air, moving like water flows.
if you get caught by wind, you should see this face laughing maniacally
My original suggestion for the Aether Mod had to do with textures, and not so much coding ideas. I really enjoy the classic textures of the minecraft tools, Pickaxe, Sword, etc. And as excited as I am for the Aether the tools looked a little different, which is awesome, but I think they would look just as nice if there was a 'Classic' version of the tools as well. I posted this on the main forum and thought it would maybe get more notice here.
Actually, I don't officially support the Tools being proposed by the Aether mod just yet, but if I do end up liking how they're implemented, then I'd rather keep a distinct style, much like how I have a very distinct style on the tools for the New Nether.

That's pretty much exactly what the point of hoverglass was proposed for, so I'm glad you like it, I guess.

With the many derps that post dumb things here, this thread will surely be locked. Just like mo'creatures.
Oops, I meant to put that on the mod thread.
Then your timing was impressive, since you managed to state that less than 48 hours before it happened. Other people have said the same thing for about a week now, but it is interesting that one of the most accurate ones would end up in a completely different thread.

Good idea, but got a suggestion
How about an additional danger, Winds
Galestone, Flowvein, and Zephyrs already generate wind. Adding Wind that is natural would make them all but completely redundant.

We need anti-ghasts for it.

Your mind is full of ****.

Aerwhales kind of already ARE antighasts. I even proposed the idea that if Aether Portals and Nether Portals can increase the chance of getting Aether/Nether Mobs to spawn in the overworld respectively, and on the rare chance that you get both and Aerwhale and a Ghst in the same place, the Aerwhale would be able to reflect the Ghast Bomb back at the ghast with its tail.
i love the aether, it is one of the best ideas on the forums.
ITS OVER 9000
Debatably, the best. I really enjoyed posting on the other Aether forum, but it was locked because of the ridiculous diamond spam and insane 12-year-old's posts.
You realize you're talking about the Mod, and not the source idea right? If anything is "official" for the Aether it's this thread.
It's kinda funny when you hear people going "This is a spin-off of the real thread, isn't it?"
Some people are so bad at doing their research...
Anyway, just a general thought; I can't help feeling that the Aether is rather short on blocks or items that interact with redstone.
That a really good point, although I would prefer if redstone properties were added to current aetherian elements, rather then new elements altogether.
Hmm I was just thinking. If you gave Notch a little extra something he might consider putting more effort into this idea if you know what I mean.
On a completely different Note, 1.6 is going to give us a Nether in SMP. This is the first step towards fixing the Nether and then the Aether may be within our grasp. Although I have a feeling Notch is going to say screw it, I'm making the Aether exclusively for Adventure mode and I'm going to charge people extra for it as DLC.
I meant the Mod, and I know this is where the ideas originated. I saw this forum before the other one actually. I completely understand. I don't ever recall referring to this forum as a "Spin-Off" because I know it is not. Just a supporter posting my opinions.
I am pretty sure that someone in these 111 pages already said it, but I have to ask again:
Does someone else see the resemblance of the Aether to the WoW area of Nagrand in Outland ?
Don't get me wrong, I adore Nagrand. It's the most beautiful and peaceful region of WoW. I would absolutely love to see it in Minecraft :-)
The new world would be a bit too complex, though. I would have to alt-tab to Minepedia every minute when I would first enter the Aether.
I must note, that the Nether uptake gives 3 new tool types, whereas the Aether doesn't have any. My suggestion; galestone tools and sword. Sword does equal iron damage and gives a major nicknack increase, a galestone effect.
Hmm, that's odd... In hindsight, I may not have been reading very carefully. I still like the Galestone thing though, but whatever.
Anyways, I think it a good idea to bring up the topic of airships. I've seen them being discussed yet their existence seems rather hypothetical. If I may, I'd like to help with that. Please refer to this thread for general building, but I will be expanding on it. http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=330013&start=30 credit goes to Dakota2063
Based upon that main idea, I'd like to introduce another concept: upgrades. Some upgrades will be simple, like a larger balloon attached for higher altitude capabilities. Others will be more complex, such as a mini farm.
Upgrades:
(this list is a work in progress, so suggestions are accepted)
Torches- torches will add several torches around the ship, sufficiently lighting it.
Bigger Balloon- a bigger balloon will allow you to gain and loose altitude faster
Flight Fins- several fins sticking out of the side, allowing for better control of the ship
Chests- multiple/a chest(s) around the ship (dependent on size/model)
Better Furnace- increases burn-time for furnace materials that power the ship
Furnaces- adds furnaces around the ship
Workbench- adds several workbenches around the ship
Garden- adds a garden, must be tilled and planted on (cannot grow trees)
Large Propellors- makes Propellors larger, causing ship to move faster
Tree- adds a single spot for one tree; it can be replanted
Gas Bladders- instead of hot-air furnaces, uses bladders (from either Aerwhale or Ghast) infinite usage, however produce gas slowly, making altitude adjustment slower
Galestone- replaces propellors with galestone, infinite usage, however you move slower
Light Frame- replaces the normal frame with golden oak wood, making it lighter and faster
Cannons- will add several cannons
What do you mean there is no added tool types? They added 4, and they are quite awesome, haha!
(Sorry for such a long post!)
Dude. Again that's the MOD thread.
Grey does NOT officially endorse the MOD.
There ARE NO TOOLS currently in the Aether.
Now if you had actually gone back and checked, Grey has noticed that the New Nether introduced 3 Tools and the Aether 2 Armor types. To which he figured a small balance of:
Add 1 Armor to the New Nether (3 tools 1 armor)
Add 1 Armor and 1 Tool to the Aether (3 armors 1 tool)
Now please, stop trying to assert that the Mod IS the Aether. Especially in the thread the Mod is BASED OFF OF.
About the sheepuff wool, I have a suggestion for it. when outside, jumping increases when on it, and landing on it makes HIGH jump landings lose just half a heart, and I ment, a high jump... this would only work outside, cause a cave wouldnt really get an air breeze would it?

The air ships have THIS METHOD already in mind. I'm still in the process of cleaning it up though.
