[Game] Dwarves [dwarves] [github]

[Mito551]

A while ago, I ran into a bit of incomfort with MT, so i decided to change MT to look the way it supposed to look and to be. And this isn't supposed to be MT at all... Dwarves should do it.

Did I ever tell you that you are invited to MadHatter's tea party?

Installation

You download dwarves_game-master from github and place it in the games folder.
When updating, installing a newer version, you delete the old version and make fresh install.

Changes:

default changes:
Sounds
Textures (most of the default)
expanded steel/iron stuff. now iron is received from ore, steel is crafted or found.
MESE (as Military Enveloped Special Equipment) gives you by chance from 1 to 4 ingots:
- Gold (moreores)
- Silver (moreores)
- Lead (moreores, instead of mithril)
- Copper (moreores)
- Ebony (dwarves)
- Steel (dwarves)
- Pobe (dwarves)
- Mithril (dwarves)
- Iron (default)
Leaves drop apples.
Torch, Papyrus, Cacti fall.
Cacti do damage.
dwarves mod:
Beer (dwarf is not a dwarf, if he can't drink beer!) and cider brewing. (in a boxy barrel! :D fixed) currently is infinite and a bit cheating, but in future i plan to code a way of water running out and refilling the barrel.
Charcoal.
Glass Lamp.
Daggers of two kinds: Ebony and Steel
Ores:
Ebony
Obsidian (as an ore, yes.)
Diamond
Ruby
Sapphire
Emerald
Mithril
Alloys: (Allonsy!)
Steel (iron+coal)
Pobe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pobedit) (steel+coal) only axe, sword and something else, which will remain a secret for now.
Brass (iron+copper)
Cast iron (iron+charcoal in an interesting way...)
Adamntium
Little pieces of silver and gold, for jewelery, wip as well...

Ebony is like other ores (e. g. Iron) — you get a lump, you cook it, you make stuff.
Obsidian a bit another way — you get chunks, which you combine and get a block. Then, you use it for crafting and building.
Steel, Pobe and brass are like usual ingots. Steel and pobe are used for crafting tools. Brass is not at the moment.
Cast Iron is a block. VERY(and i'm thinking of making it stronger) strong one.

0.9 changes:

Durin's axe (http://screenshot.su/img/e4/a0/46/e4a04 ... b5e5ad.jpg)
Mithril (ore, only armor)
Adamantium (alloy = pobe + mithril + diamond + steel, best tools in the game, a bit slower than original mese)
ore generation reduced, hopefully
weed (farming mod) + dirt = dirt with grass

future changes will be as just new posts.

And screenshots, of course ;)
64x Pack



16x pack




more screenshots(16px): http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=4402

i put this in the end, so hopefully all will see :)

I want to say thank you to certain people:

Eka-deilume (aka Eka) - friend of mine, an artist, who drew most of the items for me.
Terrasim - also a friend of mine, an artist, who drew a couple of item textures.
Cornernote - wiki creator :)
jordan4ibanez - code contribution!

+1 for longest post in the forum.

[Mito551]

i don't how to respond to that... it's not that big!! or you mean the text? then it could be. but is it relevant at all? how's the idea? how's the texturepack?
but +1 for the first and only response. -_-

[GloopMaster]

seems good. however the existance of animals on that list puts me off a bit.

[Mito551]

why would it? + you can easily delete it.

[InfinityProject]

That's a large list of mods. How well does it run?

[Mito551]

general peformance? it's the same as the default one. or at least i haven't noticed a change.

[xyz]

You shouldn't use xdoors and xdoors2 at the same time.

[Mito551]

uhmm, thanks! trying to delete first one, see how that affects the stuff^^

So far so good no new textures, sadly. but i fixed chests and dealt with compatability issue about iron. tnt and nuke added, technic, xdoors and doors deleted.

another update.

new textures, yay. picks, shovels, hoes.
ore generation finally works properly.
cornernote mods added: armor, bags, home ui, particles etc. (have i missed smth?)
cobble is lighter now.
barrel is now round, as it should be.

[Mito551]

0.8 released!

[babe223]

add the 3D mod torch http://minetest.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3021

[Mito551]

add the 3D mod torch http://minetest.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3021

it doesn't make sense, to my mind. and download link is broken. i'll consider that suggestion, though. i like the idea of animated torches, but there should be a variety: standing torch, wallmounted torch. and as far as i see it, 3df doesn't really manage to do it.
however you have lighten up an idea in my mind, thanks

[Mito551]

0.9 update with mithril!

0.9 changes:
Durin's axe (http://screenshot.su/img/e4/a0/46/e4a04 ... b5e5ad.jpg)

really cool game, looks like you spent a lot of time tweaking everything.

I made a gamewiki so I could see what to make, etc. Thought I would make it public here:
http://cornernote.net/minetest/gamewiki/dwarves/

If you want to host it yourself let me know and I'll send over the files.

OMG, thank you SO much! i'm very much honored!


well, if you could continue hosting, that'll be great! i really consider that to be a great honor and am, in fact, very grateful! though, i'm not sure i'll be able to also hold a wiki. thanks!

[jordan4ibanez]

this is what i wanted minetest fancy to be like, but since you've done everything i wanted to do and MORE! (:D) i will help you with this, so pm me please

ps, you should put in craft guide, but have it have to be powered by a lever to work!

and if you want some faster growing cactus and papyrus use this in place of the growing mod's init.lua

and also you should tweak the shears to use iron not steel

[Mito551]

and also you should tweak the shears to use iron not steel

i consider this to be a feature which deals with compatability issue.
btw, thank you a lot for the code!

i pm'd you already. waiting patiently for the answer

and an update. a little one. minor fixes and changes, a couple of new mods.

here add this into the farming mod's pumpkin.lua

Code: Select all

minetest.register_craft({
    type = "shapeless",
    output = "farming:pumpkin_face",
    recipe = {"farming:pumpkin", "default:stick"}
})

It makes it so you can craft an unlit jack-o-lantern from a pumpkin and a stick

why would it be shapeless?
