Just a question, does this have a download link anywhere, because id love to play with it. Second this really looks cool and i hope this gets implamented in regular vanilla minecraft. Thanks for the cool features and good luck!
currently there is no download because the modder has been too busy to make significant enough progress for me to put out an open alpha/beta version.
I love the effort you put into making these models and the amount of thought put into your ideas. Dont be rushed by people asking for downloads, take your time!
when you are sure you'll have the time i'll send you the model and a few textures, currently i still haven't gotten around to structuring the model to be ready for animating... mostly cuz of laziness...
I've already got an "ultimate fishing pole" in my mod that lets you catch a few different lava fish (in lava!). Lava eels to make armor with, sunspot urchins to throw and catch fire, etc... I can do everything except the basic modeling and texturing. For some reason my artistic abilities have waned... But once I have a basic model, fixing it for animation is not hard, and I've done so many mobs already that bringing it to life is almost just cut and paste. I'd really like a few real fresh water fish if you'd be interested in letting a few loose! If I code them up for my mod, I would, of course, return them with said code. It would be a blast to make a few real water mobs!

an alligator gar is a real freshwater fish we are working on. also the catfish is real, and freshwater. i "think" i've already got someone who can animate the models, and i am setting up a similar arrangement with them. however that doesn't mean i'm turning you down. may i have a link to a mod you're wanting to use my models for?
ik you are doing textures, but is there a chance i can help?
that depends. what type of textures do you have in mind? item sprites, or new model textures? can we rely on you to finish what you start, and not disappear weeks at a time? that's the biggest problem we've been having so far..
i can make textures for anything you give me, but i would like to do mob textures. all i need to begin on the texture is it's template which i belive i can get from the modelers.it may be awhile before i start because my dad is getting a new computer.i just thought it was sooooo amazing that i HAD to help.so i will do any texture you give me, i wont disapear weaks at a time though, i just wont be able to help till my dad gets a computer, hope i can help, ill support and share with friends!im supporting/ following this topic!

hey dude, i havnt finished the test yet, but here is a quick idea, every 10 minecraft days, they lay an egg, and in 2 minecraft days it hatches, and if you break it and pick up the egg, you could craft 2 together, and you would get a cross breed fish. it'd be a bit more work but it would be cool!

we've already thought of that idea and discussed it in detail... we've decide that is way more work than we're willing to do, but as a compromise we will be making one type of fish able to lay eggs, thus making it a farm-able animal.
this mod is just what im looking for something to brighten up my oceans btw have you seen http://www.minecraft...3/page__st__620 unfortunately he is not able to update to 1.5.1 yet, but i thought the fish models he did were pretty good and i think he has a breeding system too, maybe you could ask to takeover the fish side of his mod? just a thought anyway.
good luck with the development
well, personally all i can do is make models,textures, and come up with ideas. i don't think i'm in the position to take over anything like that. also, i rather like my fish mod, and don't plan on working on any other fish related mods other than this.
however i did like at least 2 of their fish models, but i still think mine are better. Theirs don't seem as "flexible" as mine, and they seem a slightly less "minecrafty" in my opinion.
ooh i like the sound of them being flexible, yeah i prefer your models i just thought if he gave you permission you could use his breeding system which would be less work for you guys to do as you said itd be extra work. have you thought about any different types of sharks btw? like hammerhead, nurse, or great white?
i know you have a lot of mobs on the go at tho mo,so i totally understand if suggestions aren't encouraged at this stage, just some ideas of mine.
we have a nurse shark already, and a hammerhead is underway. the current wip shark that doesnt have a picture yet is probably going to be a great white.
so in other words, all 3 of your suggestions are already in the process of being implemented.
also, a handfull of info has been changed and i havent gotten around to changing it in the op yet...

reasonable, bit too much work than its worth either, plus now that i think about it, i was talkin to a fr and im like, smash the two eggs together... you get yolk everywhere! anyway the farmable fish is a really good idea. i havn't disappeared for a week yet, yay me!
thats awesome news, as i typed nurse shark i thought im sure ive seen it somewhere but its not available at the moment, didnt realize it was this thread though haha
Not available at the moment? I wonder why it would say that... What did you search with?
Now this is a mod I'm looking forward to! I've always found minecraft oceans, lakes, and rivers WAY too boring. The models look amazing, didn't think it was possible to make a fish look so good!
A couple suggestions:
Pelicans: They will circle around groups of small fish and swoop down and catch some fish, and if you can tame one it can go fishing for you, but have a chance that it won't give you the fish, or just give you half of it. Although this isn't a fish, it would just be kinda funny to have the ocean so populated, then look up at the sky and see nothing. So I think it would be pretty cool to have just a few creatures that help with the ocean feel of the mod.
Ducks: They spawn in ponds and lakes and will mostly float on the water and wait for small fish to come near them, then catch it. When attacked by either a big fish or the player it will jump out of the water and fly to a safer place.
Crabs: Similar to lobsters, just do more damage and can stay on land for a while.
So far, that's all I can think of. But if I have any more ideas, I'll tell you!

the mod will use forge, not modloader.

i just really want to download it it looks so awesome!
how would you like to combine your mod with this one and help it improve?
