Simple, small thread. Someone should make a mod about Wendigos. You know. Eating people to survive. Evil Wendigo spirit.

Basically the Wendigo from Supernatural, or Until Dawn. Can mimic other monsters or passive mobs to lure you in, and then at super fast speeds, attacks you. Needs a special torch to kill.

WIP Story Mode set

What's with the splashes on the title screen? They're so weird.

(The splash after I posted this said: Where's the post about these splashes? THEY ARE MIND READERS!)

And 1.6.4, though the oldest and, as far as I'm aware, longest having gone without any new updates, is one /current/ version you can play that lacks the "Daleks only" issue (even graveyards and trenzalore mobs spawn right). [Idk about the 1.7.2 version. Come to think of it, I need to try that version. How is that version compared to others by the way?]

1.6.4 had all the mobs.
1.7.2 had most.
1.7.10 had just Daleks.

To be honest, they shouldn't add the Bigger on the Inside feature until they fix all the others, like spawning, Ironside following you and staying, Sonic Screwdriver redstone features, the much needed crafting recipes,etc. I'd rather a mod with

full features then one with lots but barely any work like before

For the love of god, use a spoiler...

I'm gonna ask again, what build is the Community server play on? Tried the TB 13, U40, U40patch...

I did not. However i will post them here, since the examples i put up on the beta products page is long since gone

/travel acts like a demat lever
/sound allows you to play sounds from normal MC or from the Dalek Mod. Try /sound random.explode as an example
/particle allows you to show particles from normal MC, an example is in the classic Tardis already available in update 40(to spawn a classic interior just enter a 1963 Tardis)
/echo not sure what this does tbh, find out yourself!

Could you give/direct me to particles?

Happy 400 posts to me.

Kind of, it has a selection of commands which can be executed in it, to basically allow you to customise your Tardis a bit, the commands you can use in it are:


/particle
/sound
/setblock
/echo
/travel

If you take a look on the Dalek Mod wiki I think Tumblr_Cat posted some examples.

What does the TARDIS panel do? Is it just like a command block, or??

Alright, so I've been trying to work on something for awhile now. But I'm a huge redstone noob. So....suggestions?

I want a command block to be able to place down a block (from a mod) in a certain location. However, in order to get this block to look a certain way, the block must be named in an anvil. Is there any way to place the block down with the certain name just by switching a lever? Thanks!

Well, I get annoyed with a certain user and decided to elevate the issue. He did it too many times.

Hey John, do you have any goal of implementing Zygon morphing?

I claim this page for the Holy Empire of Pink Fluffy Daleks!

Quote from 50ap5ud5»

Hi all, so I've taken the initiative to make a quick FAQ for the Dalek Mod, so John and the SWD Team won't have to answer as many questions that have been asked multiple times. That and so I won't annoy my OCD with difficult community members.

Do note this is quite long. I'll probably edit this later on. (First answer shamelessly stolen from ArcPhoenix. Hope you don't mind )

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is this mod the same as the Doctor Who Mod?

Well, there is no "The" Doctor Who mod. There are quite a few actually. The Dalek Mod is one of many.

• Dalek Mod (this mod)
• Doctor Who Client Mod
• DW 1.8
• Voxel Doctor Mod
• Weeping Angel Mod
• Tardis Mod
• Tardis Decoration Mod

and probably quite a few others.

I’ve downloaded the mod and now I have malware!

Make sure you have downloaded the latest version of the mod for your version of Minecraft. Other websites that offer the mod may be giving you outdated and unsupported versions of the mod or even malware/viruses.

There are official download links—the links on this page and the SWD Store.

http://swdteam.co.uk/store.php (click on the Dalek Mod product page and select any of the red download buttons on the right hand side)

Can I have your source code?

No, sorry, SWD doesn’t give out their source code. It will be closed source; it’s too easy for someone to copy the code from the Dalek Mod, modify the models and repost it as their own original mod. However, if you request some of their models for a mod review or something, that may be possible. Just state your request and give a good reason for it!

I have a crash report. What do I do?

Before you post a crash report please use the search function for this thread and search up your crash error for any previous ones.

There should be fixes for them. The error should be in the first few lines in the crash
report. E.g. java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
paulscode/sound/SoundSystem.)

Please post a list of mods you are using along with their respective Minecraft versions , a description of what you were doing at the time of the crash and copy your crash report into a spoiler.

That’s all! (Image attached shows which button)

Example crash report post:

Hi <modders name>,

My Minecraft crashed on startup with a
<insert error (e.g. java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
paulscode/sound/SoundSystem.) >

I was using <insert list of mods> at the time. I installed this mod from <insert source website>

Here is the crash report:

For those who have some knowledge of reading crash reports, not necessarily Java, read this:

Look at the first lines of the crash report. That will tell you the answer. E.g. java.NoClassfound.def

Alsolook at the bottom of the crash report with the list of mods. Which one says “errored” or not constructed?

This link here will tell you if you don’t understand:

Feature Questions:

Wen can we sleep in the TuRdiSSS?

Not at the moment. SWD Team may add the functionality to sleep/respawn in the Tardis interior dimension at some point in the future. It is not their main priority at the moment

When will Story Mode come out?

It’s a big work-in progress(WIP) project for the team, they’ll be working on it progressively.

There’s no exact release date at the moment.

Where can I get SWD products early (including the Dalek Mod)?

At the moment you can buy the Beta access rank for an account on the SWD
website for $2.50 (USD). (You can create one if you haven’t already)

It gives you heaps of cool stuff early, not only Dalek Mod!

http://swdteam.co.uk/product.php?key=o8Hj2ekUxWZrDx9Zuqm2FwtaNaIBDtTn

Can you add this <insert feature>?

It really depends on what sort of feature you’re asking for. For features
such as Sonic screwdriver variants, these might not be the biggest
priority for the Team so they might not be added immediately.

Please use proper grammar and spelling (i.e commas, full stops, capital
letters) or preferably, a spoiler ( the "!" button on your editing
ribbon) so your suggestions are easier to read and understood. (Some
community members don’t consider this—this is why this is mentioned)

This way the team may be more willing to listen to your suggestions and may consider adding them.

Thanks!

I just downloaded Update <insert update number>!! There are NU DELAK SHIPS and missing features and bugs (etc. etc.)!!!

It’ll be great to post some bugs that aren’t known yet, but please post them in a polite, understandable way.

Try not to spam the forum thread, it

1. Doesn’t help, the team members will read it when they have time. They actually have
their own lives to attend and don’t spend 24 hours working on the mod-they’ll get back to you when they can.

2. A team member is more likely to be annoyed at you or not respond; polite and well written bug reports are easier to understand and respond to than a post with CAPS and posted multiple times.

Please be patient with the team. They work hard on the mod, but it’s for their enjoyment and the communities’ too.
If an update has been ported to a newer version of Minecraft, there will be some bugs and whatnot.

Rewriting “2 and a half years worth of work again from scratch” isn’t easy to do--if you are a modder you will know
that.

Just be grateful and enjoy what is in the mod for now and wait for the next update. People need
breaks after working many hours on the mod each day for months.

How do I summon my Tardis?

For both Update 39 and Update 40 for 1.7.20 and 1.8 respectively, you need to enter your Tardis with your Tardis key in your inventory (not necessarily in you hand) and come back out. This links your Tardis key to that particular Tardis.

Hold Shift (or sneak key) then right click on a block to summon the Tardis to that position.

How do I get the image from the Image viewer block? ( Not to be confused with TCN model viewer)

In Update 40, there's a block that says "You have no idea what this is hahaha". This block, when renamed in an anvil with a certain name, displays a certain image.

You can get a list of names here: http://api.swdteam.co.uk/dm/getImageList.php

Do note there is a similar block named the TCN Model Viewer. This block lets you import custom models from Techne and view them in-game. (client side only at the moment)

...... Well wonder if we can spawn dalek ships wait oh I remember there no dalek ships

Quote from Didgeridoomen»

- Dematerialize
- Set Destination
- Materialize
- Wait for tardis to land
- Exit

If that doesn't work, it is indeed a bug. Many people seem to be having this problem.

Pretty sure it's a bug. After you demat, and set dest, I cannot materialize. Simply waited, even 2 minutes after the sound effect stopped, still said I was in flight

Also, what version is the server running?

Name: Joey
What you can bring to the series: I have pretty good comedic timing, and I know how to tell a story through the script. I love playing quirky characters, but I'll play really any type of character you need me to. I usually play supporting roles, with the occasional lead.
Role: I think I could be a great companion, or second companion for you. I know the main companions are usually females, but I think I could do well.
If you are willing to talk through email: Yes. [email protected] (don't really mind it being out in public like this.)
Gender: Male
Favorite Doctor: This might sound cliche, but I really enjoy each of them for what they bring equally... though it takes a little while to warm up to each of them after the regen. They ARE essentially the same person, with the obvious different quirks and faces, but yeah.
Favorite Episode (optional): The Girl In The Fireplace
Do you have Minecraft: Yes, but I haven't been playing lately.
Do you have a mic: Yes. It's a CAD u37

I'm American, dunno if that matters., and I've trained in acting-- I do mostly theatre now, but going to do some film in the not too distant future. I currently have a general american accent from training, but I did have a midwestern accent as I was born in Minnesota. I can learn dialects if I need to, I've studied the international phonetic alphabet, and I also have a dialect coach on standby if need be. I also sing, just in case that's something you'll want to use. I have a young adult male voice-- fitting... My default voice is kind of "gay" but I mean... I've played straight and can.
