Hello

Here i present my first mod it adds not 1 not 2 not 3 but 4 Decorative plants!
You can look at the crafting recipes in the Readme file (i don't think iv'e got the crafting working yet)
You need to put a i in all four crafting receipes
{'stick', 'stick', 'stick'},
{'stick', 'leaves', 'stick'},
{'stick', 'stick', 'stick'},

If the crafting dosen't work you can use creative mode to get them!

Here's is the download link https://dl.dropbox.com/u/102401091/decoplants.zip

Plus a screenshot https://dl.dropbox.com/u/102401091/scre ... 243559.png

Have fun!

I plan to add more exciting feature's! such as glowing decoplant's (when i learn how to) --> light_source = (see for example the glowglass in the moreblocks mod) I also plan on making more mod's!

And you are free to do whatever you wan't with this mod.

I also used one of VanessaE's junglegrass texture's as a rough guide.

Oh so that's why crafting was not working thank's for the info Topywo. I also wan't to change the crafting recipe's so it would match the dye colours in the default game. How would i do that?

[Josh]

Crafting will still not work

[Josh]

Minor change made. Added a Pink Decoplant. This is not Version 2. EDIT: This is Version 2

[Topywo]

Crafting will still not work

You need to use the mod name before the craft items, instead of only the item name. Example:

{'default:stick', 'default:stick', 'default:stick'},
{'default:stick', 'default:leaves', 'default:stick'},
{'default:stick', 'default:stick', 'default:stick'},

I found this out by comparing your code with the crafting code in the default init.lua.

[Josh]

Thank's for the info Topywo. I also would like to know what are the default names of the default dyes in creative mode?

[Josh]

Forget about the dyes thing. I have made a new update which has simpler crafting. The crafting now works!

[Josh]

What other things would anyone like to see in this mod?

[cornernote]

nicer textures

[Josh]

nicer textures

Good idea. I would like to make the texture's look better. Is there anyway i can improve the resolution?

[Josh]

New Update! This contains 3 new plants they are Cyan, Gold and Light Green!

[Aqua]

How do u change colours of the decoplants

[Josh]

I open mtpaint graphic editor (on linux that's what i use for graphics) Then i open any decoplant image and change the colour
with the pencil tool. Then i save it in the texture's folder under a different name then i register the new decoplant in init.lua and Viola!
a new plant has been added.

[Josh]

Thx with the tutorial of the deco plant Adam!+3

[Nightfighter]

[Josh]

Sorry josh!

That's alright

[Josh]

Good news! Decoplants is now at version 0.5!! This download contains not 1 but 2 very exciting decoplants just waiting to decorate your house. They are (Drum Roll) Ivory and Silver!

[Josh]

Could a moderater please move this to mod releases?

[Aqua]

to make glowing decoplants add this "light_source = 15," that'll be cool

[PilzAdam]

to make glowing decoplants add this "light_source = 15," that'll be cool

The maximal value for light_source is 14...

[Josh]

to make glowing decoplants add this "light_source = 15," that'll be cool

I will actually do that.
