This is my second topic (yay) about new mobs. Thanks to velvokay + Ginger_Bread for programming this mob! The textures and ideas are by me :biggrin.gif:
First: I am not a modder! I'm terrible at making textures, don't know how to programm and don't have the programm to make models. Also I am not English so expect some grammar faults.
So I present to you my new mob ideas:
The Adult Crab
Made this with Google Sketchup, this is not a programmed model. See below for the progress, I recieved so far.
Info: New hostile water/land mob. This one has the most progress atm (see section below).
Nature: Docile untill attacked, then it will be hostile
Spawn Conditions: Day time and Night time Blocks: (Undeep and Deep waters)
Size: Spider Size
Speed: Medium
Attack: 2.5
Defense:10
Drop: Crab Meat (heals 2.5 hearts) (no pic yet)
Extra Features: It shouldn't be able to drown
The Baby Crab:
Made this with Google Sketchup, this is not a programmed model. See below for the progress, I recieved so far.
Info: Small version, isn't it cute? Maybe it should be able to ride the adult crab? It should not be able to drown!
Nature: Docile, untill they are hit by you then they will pinch you once
Spawn Conditions: Daytime Blocks: (Undeep waters)
Size: Slime Size
Speed: Fast
Attack: 0.5
Defense: 1
Drop: 10% chance of dropping pearls
Purpose: Just adds some more atmosphere and be a source of pearls
The Giant Crab
(no pic yet)
Info: Could be considered a Boss Mob. Hard to defeat, but always rewards.It should not be able to drown!
Nature: Docile untill attacked, then it will be hostile
Spawn Conditions: Day time and Night time Blocks: (Deep waters)
Size: Huge
Speed: Slow
Attack: 7
Defense: 1,000
Drop: Lots, and lots of carapace pieces. (see section below)
Scale:
(See other posts for other mob ideas)
Custom Items:
Carapace
- Purpose: Used to make new armor:
Pearls
- Purpose: It's hard to find a good purpose for them besides jewelry in real life so this is even harder. I was thinking that maybe it could be combines with a sword and other tools to make it keep it's strength underwater :smile.gif:
Old Idea: Shells
- Purpose: When right click while holding it, either a diamond or a sand block will be looted. A suggestion was to add a possible Pearl drop (see below).
--------------------------------
Thanks for reading and I hope you support the mod.
EDIT: Removed the Bat Man, I didn't like the idea anyway :tongue.gif: + =
EDIT2: Thanks to you guys for the ideas :smile.gif: Added the drop rates and possible pearl.
LOOOVE the crab. Will support this until I die, please make a little banner with a crab in it for my signature.
I dislike the bat man. I'm generally not a fan of humanoid mobs at all, unless they're special like Charlotte or the Elves.
In fact, I wish the human form of the Werewolf was, say, a normal pigman instead.
Perhaps an alternate version (as in, pick one or the other if it gets made) would be just a beefed-up normal bat, with bigger wings and fangs?
Also: crabs have eight legs plus pincers. Spiders have eight legs as well; but since the vanilla spider has six legs, perhaps you could add two more legs to your crab? Just looks a little weird right now.
Show off to my friend who got me into the game that I can pick fights with giant enemy crabs any day of the week.
(Last I checked he still plays vanilla, poor thing)

[quote=Cryptonat][quote=Snitch]Basically you're stuck in hell till you find a portal out. There are alternatives to pig, by the way, as you probably know. :> There are no alternatives to Bacon. Ever.

Thanks for this reply, it really helped me decide what to do :smile.gif: I removed the Bat Man (I didn't like it anyway) and added a small crab. Please add the signature! :biggrin.gif:

Adding banner now :biggrin.gif:
Might I suggest...
1. A smaller picture or model for the small crab, looks a bit strange as it's the same size as its giant version!
2. Various species of crabs:
3. Various colors of crabs
4. Perhaps even more size variants: Monster, Giant, Huge, Big, Normal, Small, Tiny.
that last one is a Japanese spider crab i believe, also i love the idea of crabs, i just always pictured them to be just tiny pointless mobs that would scuttle around beaches, and be no threat whatsoever, about the size of your feet, those and the much rarer giant crab, which would be a definite threat
I think there should be a relatively wide variety of drops for these guys.
BTW; it could start with Giant Crab and Regular Crab, and if those work we could add more kinds.
Environment: Near the shore
AI: Neutral (Special)
Drop: Carapace
Misc: A none hostile mob that if fed will defend you from enemies at night.
A common to uncommon mob, they scuttle the shore line looking for food. Usually in groups of three, it is most likely to roam the beach alone. It will be unwise to attack this creature, not only because of its one massive and destructive claw will tear you to shreds, but because its main enemies are your enemies.
If fed a certain food (seeds, ham, bread) it will group up with you at night, following you for the duration for the night, fighting off zombies, skeletons and, bravely, creepers before wandering off once day breaks. Depending on what you feed it , it will stay with you for a longer time.
You should really ask Dr. Zhark to make this along with the rest of the aquatic creatures. There's really no better time to ask; if he's going to make them, he will probably make them with sharks and squids and octopi and dolphins and sea serpents.
So I thought this was a pretty cool idea and took a chance on this. It was harder than I thought but heres a very early model of the crab with partially developed claws and a temporary spider skin. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18227412/2011-0 ... .34.15.png

Crabs
BTW; it could start with Giant Crab and Regular Crab, and if those work we could add more kinds.
Giant Crab Drops
1-4 Carapace: 30%
1-2 Fish: 20%
Shell: 20%
Nothing: 30%
Regular Crab Drops
1-2 Carapace: 20%
1 Fish: 40%
Nothing: 40%
And perhaps the shell could be dropped alongside the other drops, like when a creeper is killed by a skeleton it drops a record and some gunpowder.
I actually posted an Idea for a Crab in the Ocean craft topic not to long ago before your post XD.
My idea was this:
Fiddler (fiddler crab)
Environment: Near the shore
AI: Neutral (Special)
Drop: Carapace
Misc: A none hostile mob that if fed will defend you from enemies at night.
A common to uncommon mob, they scuttle the shore line looking for food. Usually in groups of three, it is most likely to roam the beach alone. It will be unwise to attack this creature, not only because of its one massive and destructive claw will tear you to shreds, but because its main enemies are your enemies.

Its a Japanese Giant Spider Crab.
"cardisoma guanhumi" giant blue land crab
side note I think the banner should say
GOT CRABS????
I added the possible drop rates and the pearl idea. I also suggested a purpose for it. :smile.gif:
