[Mod] Particles Mod [0.3.1] [particles]

[sfan5]

Nice!

Just had a random though looking at the code: would it be possible to have Particles Mod react to a node that belongs to a specific group? If so, define a custom group namespace in your mod and mod Devs would add that to their own mod code: instant integration without dependency.

Again, random thought not based on any actual working code reality.

Particles Mod can support any Mod, without any Dependency

omg thanks man for make particles to the blocks

Particles Mod can support any Mod, without any Dependency

My idea came when I read this, which is a dependency of interaction on your part if I read it correctly.

BTW for Modders: If you want Digging Particle Support for your Mod make a List with all Block and their Color
Example:

Code: Select all

--== Modname ==--
{"modname:my_block1", "gray"},
{"modname:my_block2", "sandcolor"},

...

Send me the List and extra Colors (if there are any) and i'll include it

I need to add it to my Mod, you don't need to add something to e.g. BobBlocks

Right, I get that and it's not what I'm saying.

I have the current groups on my nodes:

Code: Select all

groups = {snappy=2,cracky=3,oddly_breakable_by_hand=3},

The engine knows that my block belongs to those groups and acts accordingly.

My question was "would it be possible to have Particles Mod react to a node that belongs to a specific group?", meaning this as an example:

Code: Select all

groups = {snappy=2,cracky=3,oddly_breakable_by_hand=3, particle_mod=2},

and arbitrarily 2 equates to, lets say, red.

If the engine allowed the mod to react to that value in someway, you would not need to add things to your mod (i.e. this is a dependency of a different sort) and I could decide one day to just add it to my Mod without needing your adding/updating/me waiting for server Admins to update their servers/etc.

Does that make more sense?

[sfan5]

Install Particles Mod, do /clearobjects, deinstall Particles Mod
That should work

[Utilisatrice]

Thank Sfan5,

His work !

[Troy6879]

You use Mesecons mod?

[sfan5]

There is a Mesecons Bug

[Stef]

There is a Mesecons Bug

which???

[sfan5]

No Particles will be spawned

[Stef]

i don't understand what the particals mod is. ;s

The download links don't work properly - if I just click one of them, all I get is a completely empty page (and no download occurs). I have to first copy the link address, navigate to ubuntuone.com (the main landing page) and then paste-and-go on the copied link address. Only then does the download start.

(using Firefox 11, and I don't have an Ubuntu One account)

[Stef]

it worked by me I have Windows Vista

How Do You Install It?

[Calinou]

Read the "sticky" topic about installing mods...

[sfan5]

*bump*

[Splizard]

Some particles you could add for desert sand and desert stone:

Code: Select all

{"default:desert_sand","orange"},
RGB for texture: 223 127 69

{"default:desert_stone","brownish_red"},
RGB for texture: 111 59 45

[sfan5]

Update!
Changelog:

• Added Desert Sand/Stone Digging Particles
• Updated some Mesecons Particles

[VanessaE]

I've been meaning to mention: for me, particles spawning on torches always seem to be offset rather than centered on the torch head. Also, seems like they should spawn a bit more often than they do now.
