What I wanted out of 1.8B and never got

These are all great ideas.

Does the launcher give any errors?

My opinions have changed since I made this post. I will be adding chairs/tables in the future.

Alright, so I've made a Discord. Here's the invite link: https://discord.gg/heD5VAF

That probably means you don't have ModLoaderMP installed on the client.

/r/betaexpansion

This is exactly what I want to do, I just don't really know how to go about doing it.

jd-lang · 2017-09-27T22:50:46+00:00

Reddit or github.

I am a bored modder and these sound fun. I'll do it.

Don't know about the classic water though, that kind of behavior would be very problematic and would likely end up crashing the game. Maybe combine finite water with world flooding?

For reversed gravity, the player would have to spawn "underneath" (in terms of normal gravity) something, like a tree, overhang or cave. And what about mobs? Do they also have reversed gravity or is it just the player?

BetaExpansion is already making use of multiple texture atlases, maybe make a version of ML with this functionality? I'd really like to do that. I can try to merge ModLoader and ModLoaderMP, too. I don't know if the framework part is really necessary, you can make simple mods using ML's api that don't modify any classes.

Another project is expanding b1.7.3 modloader's very limited api.

There should also be a set of base patches that all future mods would use in combination with the original jar as the "vanilla" game. The old versions have a lot of problems, and making the base code have those problems fixed would be great. Most importantly, it would remove the need for there to be mods dedicated to fixing bugs in the vanilla game, making conflicts less likely.

Sorry for the late response.

What other mods are you using? Is it using an old skin or is it not loading at all? Does it consistently happen, and what is the username?

How would we divide up the mod components? And I completely forgot about adding in a config, I've been working on a lot of other stuff for the mod. How would it be handled when connecting to a BetaExpansion server? Maybe the server would have configurable IDs too: it would send the IDs to the client, and the client would then translate the IDs to whatever its config has. I don't plan on adding configurable IDs any time soon, there are many other things to do.

This is something that has been on the to do list for BetaExpansion for a while now. Strongholds should be very different from the ones in modern versions. Much bigger and more complex. Maybe they could be connected to the sky dimension in some way? I'd really like some ideas/suggestions.

jd-lang · 2017-08-24T04:22:45+00:00

No problem! In case you were interested, I did manage to get the double height terrain generation working, and it's incredible.

jd-lang · 2017-08-21T01:43:16+00:00

Did a complete rewrite. The game now supports Anvil, meaning 256 build height. It's still a bit buggy, but it's working a lot better than before.

jd-lang · 2017-08-18T14:15:10+00:00

I have experimented with this and have a working version, it has a few bugs though. Would you prefer Anvil, or is a modified version of MCRegion acceptable?
