I was no aware that it has been used, are you using the textures I provided or you replaced them for more hight resolution ones? If there are new features that you will like to be added I can also consider them. Also if it is any bug or thing to improve I can take a look.
I use my own textures.

One of the nodes in this mod does not have a texture (one of the marble nodes.) Stairsplus has been updated and Sokomine has made a mod that might fit in well with this one. Below is the link to the mod.

Your mod is still very useful. I love the strata that it generates and its bricks. I use this mod in my own single-player game.

What I'm not getting is that the reinforced chalk requires chalk. I see that I can go into creative mode to get it but it feels too much like cheating. I fully understand why digging the chalk gives chalk powder but there should be a way to quarry chalk blocks whole. Would you be willing to add a new tool to cut chalk blocks whole? Perhaps a chisel? Please? Thank you.

Chalk is a good building material. Making it available through a receipe might be best (e.g. craft 2 or 4 chalk powder to get 1 or 2 chalk like with other lump-like items).
A list of my mods can be found here.

Desert stone bricks and sandstone bricks are now part of the default game of Minetest. Will this mod ever be updated? It adds mud and silt to beaches and adds a variety of rock types to the underground world (which can make caves look prettier.)

I checked this link out today and found out that this mod is still being maintaned. This is not a dead mod, so maybe the cottages mod can make use of this. Addi is the one who maintains it now. If you want to see it in action, go to the King Arthur's Land server.

Do you know how to get this mod to work? The init.lua file won't load and I have the most recent version of moreblocks. I also gave the mod's folder the name it is supposed to have in order to work.

oh sorry the init.lua gets broken by uploding to github :(

but its fixed now and works fine ;)


to the dessert stone bricks and sandstone bricks:

ill remove it from this mod when the next stable version of minetest comes out, because its easier to say "play with minetest 0.4.7" instead of "download the latest minetest games from github and put them into the game folder"

than i also create an alias to avoid unknown blocks :)

added :)

Code: Select all

CRAFT ---> 1 Chalk
[chalk_powder] [chalk_powder]
[chalk_powder] [chalk_powder]

if someone have great ideas,
or found bugs just tell me :)

Hi, I'm just wondering if the textures are going to be updated, and if you're still working on this mod. I really like it!

It looks like Github is still messing up the init.lua, for the same error came up. Maybe Sokomine, RealBadAngel, or VanessaE can help you out there. They have lots of experience with Github.

This mod is still being worked on, Amaz. I just found that out yesterday.

RealBadAngel's technic mod generates strata underground just like your mod does. If you need any assistance concerning that, look at how that mod does it. One of darkage's greatest achievements is adding more rock and mud types to the world.

if you could help me with such a problem, i want to add obsidian to my mod which is supposed only to
be found around lava lakes.
ive played with your generate stratus routine but without success.
RealBadAngel copied the routine from this mod
but I am confident that I can understand that

It looks like MasterGollum has returned. You should show him your updates to this mod, addi. He should appreciate them.

I don't know why it was not warning me about new replies on this thread :( At the moment the development of an iPhone App keeps me busy, but I think in a couple of week I could take a look at some of the suggestions done here. Anyway I will add the link to the Addi version in the main description of this thread.

Hi MasterGollum,
nice to see you back :)
i hope you ll like some features that i added into your mod

the compatibility of moreblocks (earlier stairsplus) is not the only feature
i fixed a few craft reziep conflicts and added 2 sorts of new glass
also i improoved some things.

here is the complete changelog:
  • compatibility with stairsplus added
  • added new item iron_stick
  • added craft reziep for iron stick
  • changed reziep of iron_bars to avoid conflicts with ironbars mod
  • changed reziep of chain to avoid conflicts with 3d furniture mod
  • changed reziep of darkage:stonebrick to avoid conflicts with moreblocks
  • dissabled marble_tile to avoid the message "texture not found"
  • added compatibililty with stairsplus (now its moreblocks)
  • added darkage:glass a nice looking glass that must be in this mod Image
  • added darkage:glow_glass the same glass this only is glowing
  • changed the sound_node_leaves_default to wood_default from box and wooden shelfes
  • added craft reziep for darkage:chalk
  • improved the textures of reinforced wood and chalk to save a bit more loadtime on servers
  • added another reziep for darkage straw (this can be crafted now, if farming is installed, with farming:harvested_weed


and the todo for the near future:
  • remove darkage:sandstone_brick (because this will be in the default game)
  • remove darkage:desertstone brick (this will be in default too)
  • create an alias for darkage desertsone to avoid unknown blocks
  • create an alias for darkage sandstone_brick to avoid unknown blocks too
i would be happy if i can find some of this features in your mod

Thank you so much for your improvements. I left them documented in the main post.

I will do my best to add the ones I like to the main distribution and leave your variant version available.

I must say that not to use morestairs was intended for 2 reasons 1) I wanted my mod without dependences 2) even if I know it is a very extended mod, I felt it too much, I didn't like that large amount of microblocks I don't use it in my server. Anyway thank you for add it :)

in my version you can craft the straw block with the dry leaves or with 4 harvested weed(if farming is installed)
but now farming is default but i think ill keep the alternate reziep with the leaves because it gives the leaves a use

As the above topic indicates, Minetest will soon have bump-mapping capabilities. Will the textures of this mod ever be able to use that feature?

Bump mapping is now part of the latest development version of 0.4.7. Will the textures of this mod support it? I like this mod.

Are you testing this on the King Arthur's Land server? You could have a better time finding bugs there. Also, will the medieval stained glass be added sometime?

If you wish to make the darkage textures for VanessaE's HDX pack yourself, you can do so by making a pull request for it. The guidelines for doing so are in the post beyond the link below:
http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php ... 870#p98870
It looks like most of VanessaE's textures are based on photographs, so I guess that is the best method for you to use as well. Just make sure that any photographs that you use for that purpose are allowed to be used for that purpose.
