Check the previous page. I'll update the main page soon with a version that doesn't include Scuba Diving.

Looks like you forgot to update the 1st post. :>

Did you take the CurseForge page down? It currently is missing.

Galacticraft would really benefit from having 1 more person on the team, this could increase the pace of development of new features hugely. (link)

If you're a coder, texture artist, modeler or translator and would love to get involved with a team that is a blast, it's your time to shine!

I noticed something about tame pelicans: they can fish on land. :3

Pavo, your woodpeckers have superpowers. They can float and peck air. (see screenshot)

are you able to tame birds in 1.7.10?

You can tame parrots and pelicans (check the Encyclopedia of Birds for others, if any).

Quote from BryceJulyCat»

Hey, I've been wondering if we could get Galacticraft 4.0 for 1.7.10 since a lot of people still play 1.7.10 because numerous mods are still in that version which are no longer updated.

Any update on the lag issue? (post http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding/minecraft-mods/2508671-just-a-few-fish?comment=232)

SOLVED: t seems there was something else causing the huge lag. Even with the white-list solution, the lag ended building up after almost a hour rendering the game unplayable. Then I discovered this in the jaff.cfg:

general {
 # If this is true, alternate code will run to attempt to fix a bug
 # with optifine. Note that this code may cause issues and crashes,
 # so disable it if anything bad is happening. [default: true]
 B:"Attempt Optifine Fix"=true
}

Set it to false. No more lag.

I changed the bird spawning to be hardcoded - something I'm going to change back next update.

Oh I didn't know it. I understand someone might want to spawn dozens of a bird type via config. What if the spawn frequency were hardcoded to temperature x humidity and a global rate (instead of per-bird type rate) in the config?

Thanks for replying. Looking forward to the next updates.

Quote from Eragonlover18»

If they are still tamable if so could you tell what birds are tamable and how. thanks

Try pumpkin seeds.

And use cooked fish - I think it says in the bird encyclopedia, but I'll have to double check x3

You should. ;3

BTW, I've tried to tweak a config to make the birds a bit rarer. It seems spawn rate is still a bit too high for certain biomes.

For example, peafowl in Plans biome. I used this:

 

peafowl {

    B:canspawn=true

    I:maxspawn=1

    I:minspawn=1

    I:spawnfrequency=1

}

Result: Too many in a small region (see attached image).

Bug: Tame parrots lose durability while on shoulder if player gets damage.

One question: Is there any way to customize the mod a bit? I didn't read the entire thread but there was mentioning of a config file which I failed to find. I cannot configure anything via forger either.

PSA: Dynamic Surroundings mod now officially supports Galacticraft MC 1.10.2 and 1.11.2.

Download: https://minecraft.curseforge.com/projects/dynamic-surroundings



Try it on Venus. It's glorious.

Extra info:

1. Thanks to OreCruncher for porting and including my 1.7.10 configs in the mod.
2. I'm working already on footstep sounds, other changes and compatibility issues.

Otherwise, you're always welcome to use Ezerarch's download backup site.

My site wasn't offering GC4 backups because the micdoodle8.com site hadn't had downtimes for a while and I wanted to give the official site a headstart after the release. If the site goes down again, I'll consider hosting a backup again.

Quote from Pavo_Reality»

And hmm, okie dokie. I'll definitely take that into consideration. I did something similar with the pelicans as well - I wasn't sure if I should enable them to follow the player, or to give them follow/sitting modes too. I mean I can definitely add it back in.

Last question:

- Pelicans can now be tamed and will fish for you. You can open their inventory by sneaking and right clicking.

How do I tame pelicans? I gave them some raw fish and their heart icons popped up, but it seems nothing changed. o.O

Quote from Pavo_Reality»

Oh my goodness, Ezer! Thank you so much for this! This is so helpful. (...)

As for the smart moving thing. Yeah that's kind of a conflict of mods, so not sure I'll be fixing that soon D:
The parrot follow/sitting thing was removed as I thought picking them up made that obsolete. But I could bring it back if necessary.

I'm not sure if the sitting and walking modes became definitely obsolete with the new features; I'm sure they are in a certain degree. On the other hand, the follow mode is a bit different: it's intuitive for players to expect the tame birds will follow them pretty much like they do with tame wolves and cats. Just my humble 2¢. :3
