[Modpack] 3D Armor [0.4.12] [minetest-3d_armor]

[PolySaken]

oh, i thought it would make two items appear.
edit: for my purpose it will not work. wieldview disables the resizing for some reason.

They were made to work together so that tool items can use the less visually glitchy wieldview mod while wield3d can be used to show nodes and other generated meshes. As TenPlus1 rightly points out, the wieldview item is actually part of the armor model so cannot be scaled separately.

However, you can fix the wield3d attachment issues locally (or on your server) by substituting the player model with this one: https://github.com/stujones11/minetest- ... sam_viewer

Note: This will only work with MT 5.0.0-dev without some adjustments to position and collision/selection boxes and will have no effect with 3d_armor since it changes the model anyway. I will get around to fixing that before the MT 5.0.0 release xD

Ah. that makes sense.
I'm using 0.4.17.1, not 5.0.0 so I'll keep the current setup, but thanks anyway.

Back again with another question: how would I make the armor level, heal, update but not the physics_jump, physics_speed etc?
armor:set_player_armor() resets the physics set by other things using set_physics_override(), and I don't want it to.

edit: figured it out myself.

I like this mod a lot.
I'm just making small changes to the admin armor texture.

Hi stu,
I have been making a mod called any armor, its similar to Block Armour in MC.
It generates armor textures on the fly using texture modifiers.

Sadly although i can get a preview working the armor itself is not showing up.
All default armor is appearing however.

Isja Krass.
Cool textures :)
Can you give the textures themselves and give us a liscence .... i like the futuristic all controlling look :)

(By the way who was it who invented the concept that admin stuff should be pink?)

[Isja Krass]

yes of course i can publish the textures.
the download are two posts above.

Sorry, I have not looked at your code but you might find something in this mod that helps.

Hint, you might get more feedback if you put your code on a git-hosting site like GitLab or GitHub.

btw, the admin armor was added by crazyginger72 whom I believe is a girl that used a lot of pink in her mods.

Nice textures! The best way to share them would be in the form of a texture pack ;)

yes, i will try. but I have no idea how to make a texturepack

[Lone_Wolf]

I made some new armor stand textures. If you're interested I created a pull request

Hello,

I had a couple of questions regarding this mod. It may simply be because I'm on the latest version of Minetest, but just wanted to find out anything I don't know about the mod.

1. I see there are 6 slots for armor, but I only appear to have 5 items in the 3D armor mod that will place into the slots (helmet, chest armor, legs, boots, shield)

2. I believe I read somewhere in this thread that the armor will only protect you all 6 slots are filled. Is this correct?

Thank you!

1. I see there are 6 slots for armor, but I only appear to have 5 items in the 3D armor mod that will place into the slots (helmet, chest armor, legs, boots, shield)

Other mods might add more items, plus six looks better than five. It doesn't matter which items you put in which slots, they are all the same.

2. I believe I read somewhere in this thread that the armor will only protect you all 6 slots are filled. Is this correct?

That is not true. There might be a bonus protection if all your armor is of the same time (e.g. all steel, all diamond, etc.) or if you are wearing a full set of armor (all four pieces, or five if you include the shield) but I can't remember for sure. I know there is something like that in Minecraft.

Thank you for the information! My initial reason for asking was it seemed like I was dropping health at the same rate, even with the armor on, but I'm going to load up a test world and look at it more closely.

Thanks again

I believe some parts of the armor offer more protection than others (e.g. a helmet might offer less protection than a chestplate, for the same grade of armor). You can see the amount protection given by your current armor next to the armor slots (at least if you use sfinv (the default if you haven't installed another inventory mod), I don't know if this is shown in unified inventory). I don't know what the numbers mean on their own (i.e. I don't know what a protection level of "2.5" would be in actual terms) but each piece of armor adds to the total so you should be able to compare the amount of protection offered by each piece of armor and see if any bonuses are applied.

[Chem871]

Well, a chestplate costs 8 pieces of material, while a helmet only costs 5, it makes sense that the chestplate would offer more protection.

[Minetest4Life]

That definitely makes sense, and there's no surprise there. Also, I tested the armor and it appears to be doing its job just fine. Thanks for the info on that!
