[abandoned Modpack] Duane's World [duane_world]

[duane]

Edit: This mod is abandoned now that I've switched to Squaresville C.

This modpack includes most of my mods and others that greatly enhance them. Squaresville is used as the mapgen by default, and is tightly integrated with big_trees, booty, fun_caves, geomoria, zigg, and nmobs. It pretty much requires the minetest_game and its mods or a close equivalent.

Each of these mods has their own licensing and conditions for distribution. Please check the documentation in their directories and at their sites for details. In some cases, I have modified their code and/or artwork according to their licensing requirements, so if anything goes wrong, don't complain to them -- complain to me.

Tips

+ Spoiler

- You start with a sword. Be ready to fight, because monsters don't hide from the light.
- Keep going in any direction long enough and you'll hit a road or a city.
- There aren't any ore nodes. When you dig stone you have a chance of getting something appropriate to the depth and your skill level. Dig more and your skill will increase.
- Iron appears below -50 meters, copper below -150, etc.
- Use inspirations to create more of any metal you need or eat them for a huge heal.
- Craft a wallhammer and a flare gun as soon as you can.
- Caves are very dangerous without armor or armor elixirs.
- Beds are easy to come by. Find a city or make one out of four leaves. Use one quickly to set your respawn -- otherwise, you'll respawn up to 2 km from where you started.
- Monsters get much tougher, the farther you go from origin.

Excellent!

Party on!

Excelent!
Maybe it should be an own subgame?
If not,which Subgame is recommended for this modpack?

[azekill_DIABLO]

woooohooo! let's break the rules and now it's the party!

I only use minetest_game, but as long as there's an equivalent of most of the default mods (stairs, doors, beds, tnt, fire, flowers, bucket, and xpanes leap to mind), I suppose most subgames would work.

I can't seem to duplicate the problem.

Do you have another version of mobs redo in your mods tree that might be taking priority? The one I include with the modpack has some changes in it, although I'm not sure why that would matter here. If it was an earlier version, it might not have spawn in it. I should probably rename the modified mobs anyway.

[Gael de Sailly]

Yes thank you, that was the problem. I removed the other mod and it works. Thank you :)
Good modpack by the way, interesting and somewhat curious, I like the way you imagine things from scratch and then code it, you're one of the mod coders that innovates the more.

Thank you.

----------------------------------

I've changed the name of the altered mobs redo in the pack so it doesn't interfere with the regular one. In theory, you should be able to run both, if necessary, but I haven't tested it thoroughly.

[duane]

I've had to change the name of mobs_dw back to mobs. It was causing too many little issues. It won't load while the original mobs_redo is in your mod tree. However, it should be compatible enough to do anything the original could do, if you choose to remove the original.

The mobs I've included with this pack will check for the presence of the original mobs_redo and refuse to load, just in case.

The version in the modpack is up-to-date with the original, as of today.

[duane]

I made the trees a bit more colorful and the terrain a bit more rugged.

[azekill_DIABLO]

looks nice!

[duane]

I've removed mobs_redo and put nmobs in, instead. I got tired of mobs walking through my kitchen windows. Nmobs is much less developed than mobs_redo, so feel free to turn it off. However, I recently added support for mesh entities, so it's not completely useless.

D00Med inspired me to add some pears and oranges to the new trees I made. They're as nutritious as apples.
