    Sorry, can't help you there. Professor Google might be able to help, though. ;) Mod authors usually have documentation available for their mods somewhere online.

    Personally? I'm a simple woman, and I like simple Minecraft, lol :D Survival mode, doing all the regular things you would do in a singleplayer world, except with a community you can interact with, work with, build shops for, make communal builds with, and prank, haha. Small, invite-only servers are best for me, where I know I can trust the people I'm playing with not to grief, steal, or leave doors open. ;)


    I also enjoy logging into Hypixel once in a while for a round of build battle or other minigames.


    I get the feeling neither of those is what you're asking though, so I'll stop there.

    Okay! I used to do this for my family a few years ago. I'm not sure what you mean by levels or easy to build, but these steps set up a server you own, which you can configure to your liking (including setting the default mode to creative), and which is absolutely free.


    Some caveats: this only works with Java edition, so it won't work if you're using, say, a PS4 to play. It also requires a decent computer to host the server. You can do it with any computer, but you'll have the best performance with the least lag if you're at least using a desktop.


    I ran through and tested this just to make sure it still works as I remember (I haven't done this since 1.7.10 or thereabouts), and I was able to make a server and log in (in creative mode) within a few minutes.


    • Go here to download the server files from the official Minecraft website. Note that this server only works with Java edition, and the page includes some links to help you get everything set up, if these steps don't work for you.
    • Put the server in a folder of your choosing (I recommend making a new folder on your desktop or in your documents folder or something), then run the file (called "server.jar"). The server won't start, but will generate three files in your server folder: a folder called "logs" (crash logs; the server didn't start because you haven't accepted the EULA yet), EULA.txt, and server.properties.
    • Open EULA.txt, and set it to true.
    • Next, open server.properties (which will open with Notepad). There's a lot of words here, but you're specifically looking for a line that says "gamemode=survival". For me, it was right at the top, about ten lines down. Change "survival" to "creative". This will automatically set any new player who joins to creative mode.
    • There's a lot more you can configure with this file, and if you're curious what's all available, check out this Gamepedia page and scroll down to the table labeled "Java edition."
    • Run server.jar again, and this time it will bring up a white window with a lot of text. Give it a minute, and you'll see it start running lines that say "preparing spawn area." When you see the line that says "Done," the server has loaded and is ready to play!
    • This white window is, in essence, the server itself. You can type text into this window and it will show as text in-game to anyone playing, and you can op players from here. As long as this window is open, time is passing in your minecraft world.
    • To connect to your server, you're going to need your computer's IPv4 address. The most reliable way I've found to get it is by opening your command prompt, typing "ipconfig", and pressing enter. It'll return a lot of information. Scroll down to IPv4 Address. That's the one you need, and the one you need to give to anyone else connecting to the server. It should look a little like this: 192.168.1.11

    Now, if you and anyone else trying to connect to the server uses that IP address, they should log into your server and be in creative mode.


    When last I did this for my family, I did run into problems where I could log in from the same computer running the server, but it was harder for people using a different laptop or computer. I feel like we solved that with something about using a different IP address, but unfortunately, it's been a few years (and is hard to test from my one computer, lol). If you run into that problem, there's a lot of resources on Google that should be able to help you out.


    Good luck!! Have a great day!!

    posted a message on Taming Ocelots

    I did a search around Google and Curseforge, and didn't see any mods like what you want. :( I'm assuming changing a cat skin would fall under texture pack making, which unfortunately I can't help you with at all. You might be able to google for how to do that, though. Off the top of my head, in the simplest method, I assume you could just take your least favorite cat skin and copy the ocelot skin onto it.


    Failing all that, I know that ocelots have some kind of trust system now. Theoretically, you could build a cat house/enclosure and put some ocelots that trust you in there. You can even breed them for ocelot kittens, I do believe :) They wouldn't follow you around, but at least that's something.


    Good luck!

    You're looking for the mod JEI (Just Enough Items). It puts an overlay on the right side of your inventory screen that shows all the blocks and items in the game, including modded ones. You can search it by item name or mod name, and then if you left-click an item, it shows you every crafting recipe to make it. If you right-click, it shows you every crafting recipe that INCLUDES that item (e.g. if you right-click on a stick, one of the crafting recipes it'll show you is a torch).


    Good luck!!

    Nice! I'm glad to hear that everything's working!


    As for when you'll start using your mods, that's really up to how you want to play the game! Generally, I tend to find that my gameplay starts getting modded after I've built a house, got some kind of food source, and started a mine. That's only because my priorities tend to be safety and survival before getting into the fancier stuff, and most of my mods are mid- to late-game and assume that you have access to diamonds and large amounts of ore and such.


    After that, I will pick aspects of mods that naturally feed into those priorities. Things like getting a power source underway, and making a way to get ores without having to actually mine. My play style is going to be very different from someone who, say, prioritizes exploration, or food sources, or things like that.


    I feel like the last time I saw Advanced Warfare used, there was some kind of research table that the person I saw playing made very early game, and started doing research to using the more advanced features right away. Like I said though, I haven't played it myself, and I'm not sure how it works.


    Good luck, and have fun!
