Yes only four left! I've been looking forward to this mod so much!

Could you add all the previous spell scroll icons to the GUI for selecting a spell texture?

Either Mith is working his back off trying to get the mod released, or he's done and letting the guys on forgecraft get a longer testing period to fix all the bugs. Personally, I think it's the first one, but for Mith's sake I hope it's the second.

THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!

I feel like I'm just waiting for lunch to be made (jimmy johns:meatball sub) Mmmmmm.

I've been looking forward to this mod being released since Minecraft 1.6 came out. I've been holding off creating a new server for my kids (and me) until AM2 was released, now my concern is that AM2 will be released and a day later MC1.7 will come out and break everything. Is there any sense for whether AM2 will be easily ported to MC1.7 or I guess the more important question, if I create a world using AM2 on MC1.6.4 will I be able to move the world to 1.7? We grow pretty attached to our worlds.

thanks,
Praz

@Prazoot: I can tell you that retro worldgen is supported so you can inject Ars 2 into an existing world. The 1.6.4-1.7 port from what I hear is going to be a nightmare. I would be surprised if the world can be ported successfully. I'll still do everything I can to make it possible, but it may simply be out of my hands.

AM2 will release for 1.6.4 first, and then port to 1.7 as time allows.

Will it be 1.6.2 as well, or just 1.6.4 and eventually forward?

If not, would a 1.6.4 release work for 1.6.2?

is Mine and Blade battlegear compatibility gonna be dropped when it loses the pole?

Thanks Mithion for the quick reply and the heads up on which build you will be releasing on. I've been chomping at the bit to create a world to start playing around with.

Keep up the exciting work, I'm looking forward to your release.

I should have clarified. As I said before, I am currently building against 1.6.2. So far, it is working in early 1.6.4 tests and as long as that continues I will release a 1.6.2/1.6.4 compatible release. However, if necessary (ie bugs), I will upgrade the forge version and the release will be 1.6.4 ONLY. The release post, when created, will have all that information.

@PengoPenguin:

I can only do so much. I am doing mod integration as a trial run, and I wanted to see what the most popular candidate was. Mine and Blade compatibility is not being "dropped" because there is nothing to drop. There is no compatibility, and there won't be for initial release. Same with Thaumcraft 4 or any other mod - that compatibility will not be present at initial release. They will run side by side, but won't interact in any specific way. This is for a later release, and it's looking like the first one will be TC4. I may do battlegear afterwards though, but no promises.

< Totally just excited.

I don't care whats integrated, I just wanna play!

Of course, Thaumcraft 4 is awesome, so the integration will be rad whenever we get it.. Until then.. WOOO AM2 so excited.. getting so close..

oky doky

1.7 will be a nightmare because I think it ­fecks with worldgen. Don't expect big mods for it for a long LONG time.

I have an idea for the Tower Protector. I know the Mage Towers are over, but maybe you could add a spell that places the block at a certain point, and then lets you specify corners that would mark the boundaries. This would be a nice addition for role-play and/or modded PvP.

-------------------WARNING PLEASE READ, BOSS IDEA ALERT--------------------


Maybe the m.m.m. ( main mod mega) boss of am2 could be a huge dragon that is just like the ender dragon except you spawn him in with multiple players who each have to have full on all affinities ( so one fire,lava,ender, etc,etc) and every one has their corresponding symbol of their affinity ( fire symbol, lava symbol, etc) and someone builds a huge structure for spawn purposes ( it could look kind of like the hungar games feast or whatever except all the platforms for the districts will be replaced by pedestals for each affinity master a.k.a: players with full affinity) or it could naturally spawn OR it could be like an "instant house block". So everyone aims their symbols at the center of the structure at a block that would be about 20 or more blocks away and one by one each affinity would disappear and when the last one disappears a meteor strikes in the center of the structure whilst spawning the arcane dragon or whatever ( it would be just like the ender dragon except bigger, differently textured, and able to steel your spells and use them against you but he drops them when he steels another spell but he doesn't when mob grieving is switched to false. If so, he uses spells of his own) and everyone, who is within the area of the structure while he dies, will get an awesome magic ability like because a menu would come up and give them a choice of spells being more effective, infinite mana, or something.


Plus at the beginning of the game a menu could come up and ask you if you want spells to be more effective then normal, a bit more mana, or spells being easier to make ( less and not as expensive items to make spells) or any other special things that way the game would add even more choice

And if your playing ssp?

P.s. I'm not trying to rush you or anything. You might have something planned that will be added in the fifth update or something but please make some kind of need for certain affinities besides higher jumping and fire resistance and stuff like that, so sorry if you think that this is a bad idea. I was just thinking that an ultamate boss mob that relates to the ender dragon ( like his father or something) would be cool. And in a later update can you add some kind of messed up version of the wither that uses magic or somethingSingle player could have some kind of hire able mobs or maybe blocks or something or a dimension that is like the end but nothing but the structure at a smaller versionI've got ton of ideas that are hard to explain by typing. So if you want to Skype my Skype is ASM
Just send an email to "[email protected]" to confirm a time schedule for Skype atleast a few days early or soAnd make sure that if you send me an email that you add your time zone so we know when exactlyPlus what does ssp stand for ( I know it has something to do with single player. Oh wait... I'm forever single...ladies )

Dude calm yourself miths got his own ideas your 13 mate. SSP stand for single survival player. Your acting like a complete idiot. And posting your email on the net is really dumb as well. Do you honestly think mith gonna skype a random 13yo from god knows where and considering the ridiculous ideas you've had so far? And "im single forever" thing you're 13 I bet the only person you've ever kissed is you mother! Grow up.
