Speed is, after a certain point, pointless. That is because once you reach insta-break speed you can't really go any faster

Do you know what the maximum speed is for most blocks?

Went to creative, made a hammer with 43 speed.
There seems to be a point where speed doesn't matter any more.

The new items are incredible! I look forward to your future additions.

How do you achieve the glow effect in the Infused Stone texture?

Hi, I'm Phaser Rave and I support this.

For the bows, something which adds an infinity enchantment would be nice. Perhaps an Ender Pearl?
If custom arrows were added, I don't know how well that'd work out. I'd imagine that it'd use the first arrow it found as its infinite source of arrows. That would allow you to make one expensive (i.e. OP) arrow, and never have to worry about losing it after letting it loose.

Lovely mod, and a great addition to the Minecraft Community. Keep up the good work!

Now, my selfish reasons for posting become clear. I seem to have misplaced one of the instructional books (it may have had something to do with a well aimed blow by a Skeleton while I stood by lava), and am unaware of how I can retrieve it.

I would greatly appreciate a point in the right direction as to where I can find the way to retrieve each and every of the books, should I lose them again.

(For final clarification, I speak of the "Materials and You" and "Mighty Smelting" along with the third one which title I cannot recall.)

Thanks in advance!

Craft together a blank pattern and a piece of paper. Do this three times. Then craft a single Materials and You book to get the second edition. Then do this once more with your third copy of the first Materials and You, and again with the second edition to get Mighty Smelting.

Oh, also, instead of the above, an Enderpearl could make it so projectiles such as arrows that aren't broken and daggers return to your inventory after hitting something. I think that'd be pretty interesting, especially for daggers. That way you don't need 20 daggers, or you won't need to run around in circles to grab your only good dagger to throw back at that creeper again.

Redstone - Makes ranged weapons fire more quickly. Say you have a paper dagger/bow with pure redstone installed, it'd fire considerably fast, allowing you to spam those projectiles.

Would you care for some tool modification ideas?
Feathers - Allows tools to be swung faster. Won't speed up a block breaking, but is useful for weapons. Daggers and arrows will fly at a better speed, allowing for a greater distance.

Glowstone - Will make your tool glow, for use as a light source, or it could be made to only glow when enemies are nearby (weapons. Sting, anyone?), or when valuable resources are nearby (pickaxes). Increasing the number of glowstone on a tool could increase the effective distance, or the quality of ore which it detects. At the maximum level, it might only detect gold and above. It won't tell you precisely where things are, but it can give you a general idea.

Gunpowder, or firework star - Makes the tool explosive, or makes it fire explosive projectiles. If gunpowder, then adding more could increase the intensity and radius of the blast.

Enderpearl - Teleports the projectile at full speed to the aimed target. Allows for hitscan arrows. Otherwise, it could teleport the player or something. Another use could be that it teleports the targeted enemy a bit away from you. Useful for kiting enemies, useless on Endermen who'll teleport anyway.

Vines - Roots the enemy, momentarily stopping their movement.

Also, poison dipped arrows and daggers. Don't you just want to poison your enemies while they burn to death?

Here's a few more to consider for when you add armor.
Lilypad + Something else to make it a bit rare, maybe - Boots - Adds the ability to walk on water, or to wade through it more easily. Falling in to water from a height will submerge you for a moment. Running might make you sink.

Ghast Tear + something else maybe - Boots - Adds the ability to safely walk on lava. Works much like water walking, so don't fall in, and no running.

Feather - Boots - Feather falling, increased jump height, or movement speed. If added alongside water/lava walking, it allows you to fall from a greater/any height without being submerged, and the player may run without sinking.

Cactus/Rose - Armor - Thorns!

@_@, can someone please make an Updated Mod Review? I really need something for people to see on the front page, since reading is boring.....

That floating cubey thing is the soul, collect it with a Essence Keeper. - Please read the 2nd Post on the OP for more information.

Oh, sorry. I must have missed it. I did skim through the posts, but mostly only watched the mod review.

I'm not getting souls from reaping enemies. Instead, this strange thing appears. I suspect it might be from one of my other mods, probably the recently updated Thaumcraft.
Or am I just missing something?

I have a stack of Bloodwood logs which don't seem to have a crafting recipe. It appears to be one of the corners of the trunk.

After placing them and chopping them again, they're placed in their own stack and I can craft them... that was odd.
I did update to the latest version from .10 or something in between trying the above. Maybe that was it.

Thank you for this incredible mod. I love my new swift, indestructible, automatically repairing pickaxe!

The moss auto-repair seems to interrupt the mining process, though.

Someone once asked me how to spell a three lettered word. He wasn't a child, and I hadn't previously pegged him as an idiot. I chuckled at first, thinking that he was joking. I realized that he was serious after a moment of silence.

I feel as though now that the new texture system is in place that there should be more individual textures.
For instance, buttons and slabs currently use their respective material's main texture. For this texture pack that I am working on, it makes it look a bit out of place. For grass, the colors don't exactly match up, because the main grass texture is grey, where the side grass texture isn't.

I think that buttons, slabs, individual grass textures, and etc. each need their own texture.
