I would hate Jungles with a burning passion if not for having the Timber mod. Then at least a jungle is AMAZING for wood. I can get 64 wood with just a few swings of my axe. Mmmm easy wood.

Next would be mountains. I just can't build anything good on them. Bleh.

I'm sad to see so much hate on swamps and tundra. Those are my two favorite ones. ;_;

Bug name: Sweet Jesus that's a loud pounding!
Details: So after being away from Minecraft a bit I've come back to a lot of new changes! I found an NPC village because I heard that their AI has been improved a little and wanted to see. Everything was going fine until nighttime. All the villagers went into their houses as the monsters began to spawn. Awesome!

Except when my ears suddenly started to bleed because of a random BASHING sounds which put all other sound's volume to shame. I was wearing headphones at the time so this made it a billion times worse. Found out that now monsters, or just zombies, attack the doors of any house with villagers in it. That's fine and dandy but the sound is a little excessive. I traveled outside the village to fight a few spiders and the sound was just as loud as when I was right next to the door crashing zombies.

This new addition is very nice. I just wish it wouldn't rupture my eardrums. Can the volume on this new attack please be fixed?

System: Windows Vista 64x. I have mods but nothing that works with sounds. Every other sound works fine and scales with distance except this one.

Try not to hold the mouse button so hard. You're just clicking a button here not trying to force your index finger into someone's skull.

Unless you have a medical condition in which case I suggest you try a different method beyond the mouse.

This was pretty sad and by sad I mean pathetic.

While I am a girl and I don't really plan on using this mod I'd like to thank you for making a female avatar mod that isn't, you know, offensive. :smile.gif:

Well if you really need it made by someone I have this for you.

Oh man I can't wait until this mid gets updated. My game is damn near unplayable without this. :sad.gif:

Quote from MajorStar

I honestly don't know and I don't think anyone will know the answer until more research is done into foetal brain activity. When is a foetus able to feel pain? When is it aware of its own existence? These might be good indicators as to when a tiny cluster of cells becomes a human being. Scientists are making advances into understanding the human brain all the time, so I'm confident there'll be an answer someday.

24 weeks is when the fetus barely begins to get the capacity to feel any pain. Even after then it's probably arguable.

I have a lot of fears. Guess it comes with Anxiety. Let's see:

• fear of something flying into my eye and blinding me
• fear of driving
• fear of a tractor trailer crushing us when driving besides it
• the pain of death
• social interactions gone wrong

There's probably more. I've just forgotten them at the moment. Oh! The fear of pain of death conflicts heavily when I suffer one of my depressive/suicidal moods. :|

I made Enderbro arts and it was fun.

Crops and Farming


FarmCraftory adds 13 new seeds and crops into Minecraft. Some crops are single-harvest and yield only one fruit or vegetable after being destroyed. Other crops are multi-harvest and yield two fruits or vegetables after being destroyed. Seeds can be found in tall grass in any biome.

• Turnip - Single Harvest
• Cabbage - Single Harvest
• Onion - Single Harvest
• Spinach - Single Harvest
• Leek - Single Harvest
• Cucumber - Multi Harvest
• Tomato - Multi Harvest
• Corn - Multi Harvest
• Eggplant - Multi Harvest
• Green Pepper - Multi Harvest
• Yam - Multi Harvest
• Strawberry - Multi Harvest
• Pineapple - Multi Harvest

These seeds can only be found in tallgrass by crafting new tool called a Sickle and using it to cut down tall grass. Sickles can be made from Wood, Stone, Iron, Diamond, or Gold. Each type of sickle has the same drop rate, but higher grade sickles have more durability.

Another farming tool in your new arsenal is a magnifying glass. This item is used to inspect crops to get details about that specific crop. Details shown are:

• Name of the crop
• Current growth stage
• Crop Yield amount
• Seed Yield amount
• Fertilized or unfertilized

Cooking


FarmCraftory now uses a simplified cooking system. No more having to remember recipes and no more having to wait to cook. How simple is it to use? Really simple. If you hover over the name of the recipe on the right, you'll get a list of ingredients on the left side.

First craft a Kitchen Blender, place it down, and right click to open up the menu.

If you only have some of the ingredients, the items you have will have their name in white while the missing items name will remain grayed out.

If you have the all of the ingredients in your inventory, the recipe name will turn white (yellow when hovering) and become clickable.

If you click the name of the recipe, the items in your inventory will be removed and you'll be given the output in return.

Empty glass recipe:

Glass of milk recipe:

(Currently in Beta)


Fishcraftory adds several fish mobs that can be caught using a new type of fishing rod.

To make this new fishing rod, you'll need to make a lure.

Attach this lure to a vanilla fishing rod.

Casting and reeling with this new rod is quite different than a regular rod. To cast, hold the rod and press your right mouse button. To reel, press your left mouse button. Reeling pulls in the lure/bobber towards you until it resets back onto your rod. Reeling while the lure is still in the air is faster than in the water or with a fish on the hook. Time your casts correctly and you'll be sure to hit your mark.

To catch a fish mob, cast out your line and try to make it land near a fish. A fish will notice any nearby lure, but will not immediately be attracted to it (unless your a lucky). To raise the attraction of the fish, gently reel the lure in (this consists of lightly tapping/pressing the left mouse button.) If you reel in too quickly (hold the left mouse button too long), the fish's attraction will go back down. If too much time passes, the fish will ignore the lure, and just swim away. Fish do remember if a lure has been nearby recently so keep casting and you'll eventually get the fish's attention.

If you time your reeling right, the fish will now be attracted. This sets up for the next phase: hooking. Once a fish is attracted, it will follow the lure. Continue gently reeling to raise your chance at hooking the fish. Again, if too much time passes, the fish will stop being attracted and will swim away. If you are lucky, the fish will attach to the lure. Reel the fish close enough to you to finally catch it.

You now have your own fish. Like wolves, ocelots, and horses, fish will remember it's owner and will not despawn. Unlike those other tameable mobs, fish won't follow you. You may place your fish in your own pool or pond and pick it back up with a fish net.

You can also turn your fish into raw fish meat and cook it into a furnace.

You can also breed caught fish with fish flakes. To make fish flakes, combine cooked fish meat and wheat.

Lastly, you can place your fish into item frames and show off your collection.




FruitCraftory adds six fruit trees that start out as small saplings and eventually grow into trees with regrowable fruit on them. The six fruit tree types are as follows:

• Orange
• Grape
• Pear
• Peach
• Banana
• Cherry

To find these saplings, use bonemeal on grass blocks. There is a random chance one of these saplings will appear on the grass. After a set amount of time, the fruit sapling will grow into a fruit tree with un-ripe (green) fruit on it. These un-ripe fruit will then ripen over time (turn into the proper color of the fruit) and can now be harvested/broken off the tree. Each tree will be able regrow its fruit as long as no part of it destroyed in any way. New fruit always start out as un-ripe and will not drop the fruit item if harvested early.

FoodCraftory lowers or adjusts the healing amount of every vanilla food item to compensate for the additional food added by the other Craftory Mods. For example, a cooked steak heals 8 food hunger points in vanilla Minecraft. FoodCraftory changes cooked steak to only heal 5 food hunger points, giving you a better incentive to harvest crops, fruit, ect. Configuration is also added to the vanilla food items, so you can set steak, carrots, apples, ect, to heal hunger, saturation, or health to whatever amount you like with the config file. If you are planning to make your own adjustments or need to look up vanilla values for food, a good resource to use is found on the Minecraft wiki: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Food




GuiCraftory adds food descriptions to every food. Hovering over any edible item will now display the effects the item will give/heal when you consume it. For example, the amount of hunger a food item heals will be displayed under the name.

Items that have extra potion effects (positive and negative) will also be displayed along with the probability of causing the effect.

WateringCraftory optionally adds a more challenging route to growing crops by keeping farmland watered manually by using another tool called a watercan. To fill the watering can, use the empty version of the item on a water source block. To use the watering can, use a filled can directly on the dry farmland or on the crop on top (it will water the farmland beneath it). After a set amount of uses, the watercan will become empty and will need refilling. There are five types of watercans available: Wood, Stone, Iron, Gold, and Diamond. Each will water a specific range of farmland with just one click.

Basic watercan recipe

In junction to the watering can item, there is also a slight change to fundamental mechanics of farming. Every Minecraft morning will begin with a "drying" period which lasts an hour (0 to 1000 Minecraft Time). Any watered farmland that is not near a water source block will change from wet to dry during this period. Use the watercan to water the dry farmland. If the farmland is dry by nightfall (12000 Minecraft Time), it will revert back to dirt.

If using this new mechanic, your crops will need to be watered on a daily basis for them to grow and produce healthy and mature fruit and vegetables. If you forget to water, your crops will eventually turn brown and wilted, and they will stop growing. To cure the wilted status, just water the crop and it will return to its healthy state. If you break a wilted plant, it will give you a withered grass item. This withered grass item is similar to bonemeal as it can be used directly on crops to fertilize them. Fertilized crops grow twice as fast than unfertilized crops. TIP: You may want to purposely allow some of your crops to wilt so you can get withered grass to use on your healthy crops.

Getting an unexplainable crash or bug? Here's a couple of things you can do.
Check your installation method.

• Did you delete META-INF?
• Do you have the correct version of Forge? (Check the REQUIREMENTS section)
• Is Forge installed properly? (Files go into /mods/ folder)
• Try deleting any pre-existing "****Craftory.cfg" files (See Configuration)
• Forge has Modloader pre-installed now. If you had Modloader installed before you installed Forge, there will be a conflict. Start with a fresh minecraft.jar and only install Forge.

Still crashing? Post an error log so we can see and try to help you. Don't know how to get an error log? Visit http://www.minecraft...ing-error-logs/ and learn how. I do ask you to please use spoiler tags to prevent elongated posts. If you don't post an error log, I can't help you fix the problem.

[spoiler]

[/spoiler]

You can change block IDs, item IDs, food healing values, and ect with the configuration files. To find the config files, go to your .minecraft/config/ folder. (You must run Minecraft with the mods at least once for the confg files to appear!).

This thread is discontinued.

For Mincraft 1.1 and later, go to this thread.

I have given Infiniti324 permission to post a topic for the 1.1 version of this mod on Planet Minecraft.

~ Version 1 Features ~

So you're probably wondering to yourself "A mod involving clay? No Way! I need all the grey goop I can get for my brick castle!" Well put those tried, burnt hands to rest for a second and think about this: What if you could create your own miniature army out of clay and stage the most epic battles imaginable in a space small enough to be your backyard? Now before you accuse me of being a madman, take a look at this mod. Read ahead through the pages, and you'll see just what kind of violent mayhem you can cause with just a few simple materials plucked right from the ground.




Here's how it works: A clay soldier is an item you can hold in your hand. It is crafted using a clay block (for substance) and soulsand (for sustaining intelligent life). Specifically, one block of clay and one block of soulsand can be used to create four soldiers. Once you have a nice little pile in your hands (up to 16), right-click to place them all at once. They will quickly spread out and begin to roam the landscape. They walk slow and don't jump very high, but they have enough arm strength to climb up a single block. Unfortunately, since they lack a decent skeletal support structure (or even skin, for that matter), their delicate figures can be horribly mutilated by even the weakest of blows. A player can cripple a clay soldier in just a single punch. So naturally, they aren't hostile towards anything bigger than themselves. So, what in the world are they qualified to fight against? ...Other clay soldiers, of course!



Clay soldiers have a team-based mentality. They respect similar colors of their race, and treat their identical equals as brothers. But when colors other than grey come into play, things start to get a little bit more exciting! You can use red dye, blue dye, green dye, yellow dye, orange dye or purple dye to change the color of your soldiers, and then set them loose to start a fight! Grey soldiers are peaceful unless attacked, but all other colors will rush in for the kill without mercy! Their natural hatred towards members of a different spectrum allows for a lot of exciting events to take place in your Minecraft world. Build giant battlefields, arm your fortresses to the teeth, and let your soldiers transform the earth into a sea of crumbled clay!

...But then again, it's just a bunch of identical clay men, right? And there's nothing interesting about that, is there? If only there were some way to make things more interesting... OH WAIT, there is!



Of course it's not just clay! there's MUCH more you can do with your miniature armies! Choose from a variety of equipment, arm your men to the teeth, and have a showdown to see which type of assistance is more beneficial to survival! All you need to do is press q to drop an item on the ground for them. You can even drop a large pile, and the clay men will split it amongst themselves.


Since clay soldiers are so small, most conventional weapons such as swords and bows become unwieldy. So the most obvious thing to do is to start from the basics. A simple stick can easily be held by a clay soldier, and is their fundamental source of offensive power. It will randomly increase their attack by half a heart, or a full heart for 15 uses before it breaks.


Another thing to worry about is protection. Because they're so small, how could any kind of armor fit onto them? Well, it turns out that just one piece of leather can be easily folded into a handy chestplate, reducing every blow from a fellow soldier by 50% for 15 hits in total. Simple and classy.


As for the issue of health recovery, clay soldiers have the intrinsic ability to digest and break apart the atoms within carbon-based food products to produce raw element compunds that can repair their weakened molecular bonds. In short, they can eat food to gain health. Since one piece of food is too much for them, they will divide it into four meals and eat them correspondingly when their health gets low. Combining all four meals, any food item is enough to recover their entire health bar. This will work for any item of food (and for mushroom stew, they'll even eat the bowl). The only exception is cake - it's way too large for a clay soldier to carry all at once, so they won't accept it.


Moving onto more interesting things, clay soldiers seem to have the ability to recognize a monarch among their ranks. Gold is a symbol of power, so using their incredible metalsmithing skills they will craft a gold ingot into a crown and wear it. Each team will only have one king, unless the kings are so far away from each other that they can be considered as rulers of different regions. When one clay man becomes a king, the rest of the nearby team members will follow it diligently and stay very close. Some may wander due to the fact they technically have no eyes and cannot see their leader, but for the most part, they become a very tightly-knit society.


Everyone knows that anything can be made at least 5 times cooler if it glows in the dark. With lightstone dust, you can turn your soldiers into living glowsticks, and any night time battlefield into a raving disco dance floor! Keep track of your troops by using lightstone dust at night. Best of all, it lasts forever, just like our current torches :smile.gif:


As if a gigantic clay war wasn't awesome enough, now you can add explosions into the mix! A clay man will instinctively incorporate sulfur into their basic body composition to make themselves appear "creepier" to their opponents. But those black specks aren't just for show! When a besulfured clay soldier meets his demise, a small explosion will bring his enemies along for the ride. It will also destroy three or four adjacent dirt blocks, but it's nothing to worry about.


For what they lack in cake-consuming ability, they make up for in their ability to eat sugar. Just one lump of it will send any soldier into a frenzied craze for a whole minute, making them more agile and greatly increasing their walking speed. They tend to be responsible though, and they won't eat another lump of sugar before the effect wears off.


In times of great despair, teammates fall and great armies die, leaving the tired souls of each individual fighter with nothing to do but rest for eternity. That's only the case for humans, though! Clay soldiers only become incapacitated when their bodies are too mangled to even bend a single joint. With a simple lump of clay, any soldier can patch up a fallen comrade's wounds and send him right back to the battlefield, effectively causing a full revival. One clay lump is enough to revive four fallen soldiers. Just don't expect any ressurecting to take place in the middle of a fierce battle.

Well, that information was all fine and dandy. But something just doesn't seem right... don't some soldiers ride mounts onto the battlefield so that they can really get the drop onto opponents? I mean, no army can truly be threatening unless it has the ability to harness the raw power and energy of one of nature's finest beasts. And well... oh, never mind. This mod does have mounts after all.


Indeed it is true, any clay soldier can be given the ultimate gift in times of war: something to sit on. Using dirt and soulsand, you can craft a few horses for your personal armies to use and enjoy. Horses have no team alleigance, so any soldier can use any horse. While a soldier rides a horse, he will experience greatly increased speed. Also, 50% of all incoming attacks directed at the soldier will instead affect the horse. The horse has 50% more health than the soldier, so in most cases, the horse will be taken as a prize for winning the fight.



When a clay soldier dies, his body will always be dropped on the ground in the form of a doll, so you can ressurect him again immediately if you just pick him up. You'll never lose a single soldier (unless you've given him gunpowder and he explodes), so you can keep the battles going for as long as you want! Make videos, post pictures, tell your friends, and heck, go outside and make some real clay soldiers or something. Just don't forget to download the mod, because you'll be missing out on one of the best things that ever got dug out of the sand!

~ Version 2 Additions and Changes ~


For those looking to make even tougher soldiers, look no further than your nearest arts and crafts store. With simple materials like flint and cloth, your soldiers can enhance the equipment they already have! If a soldier has a stick and there is a piece of flint nearby, he'll use the flint to sharpen his stick for additional attack power! And if there is a block of wool nearby, an armored soldier can grab a handful and make some padding to lessen damage even further. The flint and cloth won't be consumed in the process, so they can be used infinitely! Remember, a cozier soldier with a sharper stick is a happier soldier.


As if sharper sticks wasn't enough, now there's an even better way to fight dirty! Redstone dust is good for mainly two things - nerding out your Minecraft world, and making people's eyes sting worse than a snail in a salt factory. If you give your soldiers a handful of redstone dust, they'll throw it in their opponents eyes to temporarily blind them. And while blind, a soldier is completely defenseless and unable to attack! It works for up to 2 uses, but if I were you, I'd bring a pair of goggles just in case any dust gets thrown astray.


For those stubborn opponents who seem to walk around everywhere when all you want them to do is stand still, there's slime. If you give your soldiers a slime ball, they'll make like Dr. Scholls and apply that green goo directly to the feet of their opponents. One slime ball is enough for two counts of adhesive. While a soldier's feet are stuck, they cannot move an inch. They can't be pushed or knocked back, and will only get free after about five seconds - or if the block underneath them is destroyed. Until then, they're just sitting ducks, so you might as well get out the bread crumbs.


You'll discover as you experiment with the clay soldiers that it's unfortunately very easy to get carried away. If you spawn too many of the soldiers, they have a propensity to find their way out of their battle arenas and into just about every nook and cranny in your world. When worse turns to worst, there's the Clay Disruptor. A handy little device made of 2/3 clay, 1/6 redstone and 1/6 stick, it's incredibly powerful when in the right hands. Pressing the shiny red button on the front causes the device to emit incredibly powerful radioactive waves that are capable of instantly killing nearby clay soldiers and causing cancer in small butterflies. Every time you use it, all soldiers in a 16 block radius are as good as toast. It lasts for 16 uses before it implodes upon itself and ceases to exist in our universe. And for some mysterious reason, it seems to work on dirt horses too. So if you're looking to cause some clay genocide, this is the right tool for the job.


~ Version 3 Additions and Changes ~


So you've got a military force armed to the teeth with everything you can possibly give them. One problem: they are still made of clay, so when you talk about their guts... well, they don't really have a whole lot to talk about. That's where iron ingots come in handy. When you give a soldier an iron ingot, they will use it to craft themself a skeletal core, making them stronger and heavier. And as a result of this, the knockback of their strikes will be greatly increased! In turn, they will also fly back a much shorter distance when struck by someone else. Two ironed-up soldiers will cancel out each other, however. The downside to this powerup is that the poor old dirt horses can only handle so much weight, so a soldier with an iron core will not be able to ride one.


ARRGGH! WHY NOT BOWS! I WANTED BOOOOWWWSSSS!!!!

Woah, settle down there Mister Piggy. Let me explain. Clay soldiers can use a gravel block to create a supply of throwable rocks. One gravel block is enough for 15 shots. The clay soldiers will hold these rocks in their left hands, and throw the rocks when their enemies are within range. They will back off and try to play defensively, but if an enemy gets too close then they will resort to physical attacks. Also, do you remember those attack-enhancing powerups, like the slime and the redstone dust? Well those powers still apply to the rocks. With the right combination of powers, even just a few rock-throwing soldiers can be an unstoppable force.


Here's a little something I cooked up special for all of you. I'd like to thank a special fellow named "Popular Demand" for making this possible. Here's the thing: a ton of you seem to think this mod is about building a clay civilization with lots of pretty houses rather than fighting. You're incorrect of course, but I decided to do something for you anyway. And this is what you get: A clay soldier is now able to pick up STACKS OF AT LEAST 5 LOGS. Hear that? Not one log, and not two logs. A stack of at least five logs or greater and up to a maximum of 20 logs. What do they do with said logs? They build houses, of course! There are three different random kinds of houses they can build. 5 logs builds a small abode, 10 logs creates a lavish livingspace, and a full 20 logs will fabricate a fabulous fortress (with a bonus chest of sticks inside!). To build these houses however, they will need a good deal of space and no other clay dudes around. Unfortunately, a clay soldier who is holding logs will basically forfeit their ability to fight, climb walls and even ride horses. But if they are attacked, they will drop their logs and defend themselves.


Another largely demanded feature was a better way to manage clay soldier equipment. Well, here it is. A clay soldier near a chest may look inside of it and see if there is any equipment they need. It may take a little while for them to notice a chest, but they will see it eventually. They'll take what they need instantly and leave the rest for everyone else. And if a soldier has clay, they can even bring teammates to life if their bodies are stored within a chest.


And yet another largely demanded feature was the ability to control soldiers. Well, this is pretty much the best I can do! Use a fishing rod to guide a group of soldiers to a central location. I won't get into it, but adding the ability to control a soldier is both VERY difficult to do and causes LOTS of problems, mainly incompatibility with other mods. So, I had to compromise. As an alternate to this, you can also use a dye that is the same color as their team and they'll swarm around it.


Last but not least, it's everyone's favorite dimension-warping handheld tool again! This time, its power has been increased significantly. Not only can it instantly kill all clay-based lifeforms in the near area, but it can also instantly destroy all clay blocks in a 12-meter radius! This opens up a ton of possibilities for fun clay-based projects. Just make sure not to build a stadium out of clay blocks - you'll most likely regret it.


~ Version 3.5 Additions and Changes ~



As promised, this update brings you four new colors of soldiers! There's nothing too special about pink and brown soldiers. In fact, they fight exactly the same way as all the other colors. But if you really want to go through the trouble of getting cocoa beans just to have an additional color, then you have my sympathy! And of course, I didn't stop there. The other two new colors have some very special properties that could quite possibly change they way you think about clay wars...



That's right! White soldiers are completely peaceful. So if a band of ruffians shows up at their doorstep, they'll have no choice but to sit back and take the hurt! They spawn with slightly lower HP (15) than normal, and they won't pick up offensive items. What use are they then? Well, you could have a race to see which team can kill clay soldiers the fastest! And being peaceful makes them the only team which doesn't attack hostile mobs. Now, as for the other team...



Brawler is really the only suitable word for these furious fighters. Black brawlers are so full of rage and fighting spirit, that they will even fight each other! They will also avoid picking up team-based items, such as golden crowns and revival clay. And since they spawn with higher HP (30), there's no telling which one will be the last one standing! And as if that wasn't enough, the boundaries of war have been expanded even further with new items...



What's lighter than a feather? Not a clay soldier! But even so, troops can take advantage of a feather's marvelous air-resisting properties to parachute down from great heights. Once a clay soldier detects that it is falling from a high location and is at the risk of receiving fall damage, it will automatically deploy its carefully-hidden feather and glide down safely. But be careful! Any soldier which has a mount, a heavy iron core, or is carrying logs will not be able to use their feather.



It's the answer to two problems in one simple item! soldiers can't see far enough? Get goggles! Soldiers aren't cool enough? Get goggles!! This convenient piece of headgear extends a clay soldiers's sight range by 5 blocks and also functions as a stylish set of imitation eyes. And to make things even better, all you need is one glass block to make a set of goggles for your whole army! Just make sure to drop it on the ground with q.



Here's a feature that everyone's been waiting for. Well, most people. At least half the people in my forum inbox. Anyway, it's the new Snow Pegasus Mount! A soldier will treat a pegasus mount just like a regular dirt horse, except this one will hover above the ground as its rider traverses the landscape! The snow pegasus can also survive more hits than a regular dirt horse, but at the same time, is just a little bit slower. This new mount is craftable using snow blocks, soulsand and a feather. For more info on crafting, see the summary section.



Unless there's something terribly wrong with you, you probably don't like seeing horse and pegasus carcasses littering the battlefield during an all-out clay war. For those who do have compassion for our miniature equine friends, a new feature has been added! Clay soldiers now have the ability to revive horses, just the same as they would normally revive their friends. And they still use the same material to do so, which is clay lumps. It's hard to tell why that would actually work, but I'm not asking questions.



We're getting closer and closer to the end of our V3 features, so don't give up yet! This handly little addition enables any clay soldier to access a chest within a minecart! It even works as a unit shipment vehichle - load it up with clay dolls and clay lumps, then send it down the road! One cart could change the tide of any battle - and you decide who gets it!



And now, the secret feature! It is a secret so secret that not even the best secret-keepers know about it! It's so great, it's reason to celebrate! It's the ClayCam!

This incredible new feature allows you to view the action close-up! Just right-click a soldier and see the action from over his shoulders! Pressing shift will disable the ClayCam. The smooth and quick camera movement allows you to see the detail of a war like you've never seen it before - until the unit dies, of course!

~ Version 3.6 Additions and Changes ~



Despite the amount of clothes that clay soldiers are able to procure, there has never been a simple material for them to make a cape with. Well, now there finally is. Using a diamond, a clay soldier will not only craft himself a very flashy blue cape, but his abilities as a fighter will increase massively as a result! His health will be multiplies by twenty (20), his weapons and armor will last much longer, he will be able to use food and weapon add-ons for longer, and he will even have a permanent speed-boost effect! Just one super soldier can take down an entire army of foes! But exactly how long will one super soldier last? It's your job to find out!



And just when you thought the mod couldn't get any more intense... There's ZOMBIES! ...or VAMPIRES! ...or ALIENS! In fact, I don't really know what they are, but they're corrupted and evil! When a clay soldier grabs ahold of an enderman pearl, it gets infected with corruption. And suddenly, nothing else matters except spreading it. When a corrupted soldier attacks and kills another innocent soldier, it doesn't die... It gets all of its health back, becomes evil, and joins the corrupted horde! It doesn't matter what team he's on. A non-corrupted soldier is an enemy. And by the time you realize their piercing cries of agony, they'll already be gone. And they'll start coming... for YOU!!!

...And no matter what happens, don't let a super soldier get corrupted... or else you will have quite a problem on your hands.

Other Things that were Fixed:

- the claycam now works with everything and is compatible with ALL mods.
- soldiers now respond quicker to chests in the nearby area.

~ Version 4 Bugfixes ~

Pink, Brown, Black and White colors are created the same way.







~ Planned Features for Future Updates ~
* Will be going open source soon.

Issues:

This mod will work with any other mod (even The Aether, I know because I'm a developer). You do however need ModLoader to run this mod.

Instructions:

You must first install Risugami's Mod Loader before this mod will work. Please do not attempt to install old versions of the mod loader into the 1.0.0 client.
If you are using a Mac computer, search for a special Mac installation tutorial if you have problems installing the mod. "Minecrafter" or something like that might work.
Once you've successfully install the three requirements above, simply drag all the files included in the zip into the jar. Remember to leave the image files in the clayman folder, and drag the folder itself into the jar.

Also, This mod seems to have been featured on some site I'm not familiar with. I saw a cool Kenshiro mod on there. They asked me to post this image here, so here you go:


Despite the overwhelming amount of demand for the ability to control clay soldiers, I will not be adding this feature. The requirements for such a thing to be possible involve massive amounts of edits to the original game files, a lot of custom code from scratch and more time than I have available. It would take a miracle for the mod to actually be compatible with anything else as a result. Therefore I shall not be making this feature and instead will focus my efforts on SMP and other creative additions.

Warning: If you use the new update/snapshot it will gain new places such as the temples or pyramids. However, It may lose a NPC Village or two.

This map still has a lot to explore it is your turn to explore and share what you find.

Hello, I was playing and when I was making a new world and I saw gravel at spawn. I looked to the left and a nice NPC village was waiting. Through further inspection it has almost a perfect generated village that contains 2 diamonds, a Iron Pickaxe, and food. As I explored I found a Huge double ravine stronghold containing loot rooms,a silverfish spawner,a portal to the end, and lastly an old library. It also has huge mountains in a cluster (Mountain Range) with a tropical forest nearby the mountains. At the stronghold coordinates there is a swamp and on the other side of the water there is an expansive snowy forest.On the way to the stronghold you will come across a huge desert. New locations will be added often hopefully, this seed is filled with adventure. I've found about 15 ravines already. All 11 Villages, and 3 Strongholds are within 2000 blocks max from spawn( Strongholds even closer ). Enjoy!!
This map has a huge mountain range,forest,jungle, and swamp biome.
Check out the spoilers for Coordinates. They are loaded with pictures and Information.

The seed of the map is : -4295111152928649330


The Black Circle around NPC Head is where you spawn.

The NPC Head = NPC Village / The Black Boxed Brick = Stronghold



This map contains 3 strongholds within 1000 blocks of each other and about 11 villages relatively close near each other.

Here is the spawn, Thanks to VictorMoreno015 for the Pictures of spawn.


Remember: This is only one of the strongholds and there is 2 others for YOU to explore.
The Double Ravine Stronghold's location is at X=517 Z=345 (Differs from other list's coords, However both are similar and land you inside the strong hold.)
This one has a Portal, Library, and Silverfish Spawner.
Dig down on those coordinates and you will land in the Stronghold.
Here are pictures of the stronghold.

These pictures are outdated for better pictures look at the WHOLE post.
Coordinates to the Jungle and Mountain Range area are X=630 Z=826
Pictures of the Biomes:

This section has the best pictures and definately shows off some off the seed. Remember: This is only some of the map the rest is for you to explore.
Other nice locations:


Intersecting 3-4 Ravines Abandoned Mineshaft with about 5-6 Levels.


Abandoned Mineshaft:

Coordinates of Villages and Strongholds. May not be 100% Accurate.

Newer 1.3 Structures: Temples and Pyramids
This DOESN'T contain all of the new structures it only shows off a few relatively close to spawn that I have found.

To get the map I used a program called "Amidst", and then edited the portion I needed.

Unfortunately, I'm not adding "The Nether" Section. If you guys want to help, take pictures and give coordinates. Then I will make a nether section. I will give credit to your work and mention your find.

The rest is up to YOU, the community. Share what you find. Have fun mining!!!

Game could really use Testificate Nomads. Build a village, and theres a random chance that wandering villagers will move in.

Part 1:

Part 2:

This is a new minecart station that I've been working on for the past few months. It's fully automated and compatible with Minecraft Beta 1.6.6, and it's intended primarily for use on multiplayer servers. It operates similarly to how real-life train stations work, where trains run down a designated rail line in both directions while stopping briefly at each station along the way.

Download the Minecraft Savefile and MCEdit Schematics here

Features:

• Uses only "official" booster and detector rails provided in-game, and does not use any old glitch boosters, door boosters, pez dispensers, or external mods.
• 3 different station/track types: elevated, ground-level, and underground.
• Easy-to-use departures system. Simply press a single button to request a cart from the dispenser and then board the cart when it arrives. The cart will depart automatically after a few seconds, and then make brief stops at each station until you disembark. Any unoccupied carts that depart are automatically fed back into the dispenser.
• 3 arrival bays allow multiple users to arrive at a single platform at the same time without collisions. In the highly unlikely event that all three bays are occupied, all further incoming carts will continue down the main track without stopping.
• "Skip Station" button. Just before they arrive and stop at a station, players can press a yellow button on their right as they pass by to skip the station and continue down the main track without stopping.
• 4 indicator lights located prominently above the boarding area report the status of the dispenser ("Full" and "Empty"), and the status of the requested cart ("Approaching" and "Ready for Departure").
• Note blocks also provide audio cues on the status of the carts:
- Low tone = "A cart is approaching from the dispenser"
- Medium tone = "A cart has arrived"
- High tone = "A cart is about to depart"


• A minecart dispenser that can hold up to 12 carts at a time, and has "self-repair logic" that fixes any gaps between stored carts. The dispenser can be easily reloaded manually in a slot located next to the boarding area.
• Dispenser overflow detection. If the dispenser is full, any further incoming carts are diverted to an overflow area located next to the dispenser reload slot. The overflow area is a simple track section that can theoretically hold an infinite number of (albeit glitched-up) carts.
• Conductor's Office containing a desk, some emergency supplies, and some advanced functions for the station:
- "Reset Cart Approaching" button. When the "Cart Approaching" indicator is on, any further requests for a new cart are ignored in order to prevent multiple carts from being requested at once.
In the highly unlikely event that this indicator remains stuck in the "on" state, press this button to turn it off and enable cart requests again.
- "Flush Dispenser" lever. When flipped up, it attempts to flush all carts from the dispenser and redirect them to the overflow area. A very useful tool in diagnosing and correcting jammed carts in the dispenser.


• Empty retail space located next to the Conductor's Office can be used for coffee shops, stores, or lounges.
• Glass flooring on the public level provides easy observation of the redstone and minecart mechanics below.
• 5 maintenance access/emergency exit doors and hatches per direction provide easy, yet controlled access between the public and mechanical levels of the station.
• 5 different roof schematics that can be attached to the top of the main imported station. Roof types include: arched (high and low variants), pitched (high, low, and multi variants)
• 21 different track piece schematics designed for elevated, ground-level, and underground travel. Details on these track can be found in the "How to Import Schematics" section below.
• Colour coding for stations and tracks, so that rail lines can be easily identified by colour (example: "The Red Line")

Specifications:

Half Station Dimensions: 19W x 37L x 13H = 9139 blocks
Full Station Dimensions: 37W x 37L x 13H = 17797 blocks

Time from pressing the "Cart Request" button to a cart arriving in the departure bay: approx. 7 seconds
Time that a cart waits in any of the arrival/departure bays: approx. 4 seconds

Mods and tools used to design and build the station: MCEdit, INVEdit, Single Player Commands

Bugs and Known Issues:

• In Minecraft Beta 1.6.6, there is a bug where a minecart rider will take damage if they go around a corner at a fast enough speed and if there is a solid block on the outside of the corner. Due to this bug and the way I've wired the cart sorter, every time a player departs from a station, they will unfortunately take half a heart of damage. I fully expect this bug to be fixed in a later version of Minecraft, and the cart sorter wiring is necessary to turn off the arrival bay booster rail after a cart has departed.
• When a cart leaves an arrival bay, and a second cart arrives immediately after at that same bay, the second cart may leave prematurely before the normal 4 seconds. This occurs because the timing circuit has not turned itself off yet since it needs 4 seconds to turn on, and another 4 seconds to turn off. Fixing this bug would take a lot of time since it requires a major rewiring of the redstone down below and also a much wider station, so it will have to be addressed in the next version (if there is one).
• When arriving at a station, if a player exits the cart but does not move away from it, then the empty cart as it leaves will have enough momentum to go over the cart sorter hill and on to the main track. Again fixing this bug would be a major design change, so it has been deferred to the next version.
• The minecart dispenser is quite reliable most of the time, but a jammed cart does appear on a rare occasion (maybe once out of 100 cart requests). I'm not entirely sure what could be causing this problem, it could be a redstone/minecart timing glitch where one of the carts moves up two slots instead of one when the a cart is requested. It could also be related to how I've oriented the dispenser track in an "S" pattern. In any case, to fix this issue when it occurs, simply use one of the hatches/doors to go down to the mechanical level and remove the offending cart.
