I have stopped developing this mod. If you wish to see the topic in it's last state, open the spoiler below. If you want to continue the development of this mod, I'll let you download the source code. Hopefully, some of you can make the mod better than I did. It wasn't that bad, I say, but it could use plenty of work. I'm hoping on developing a different style of mod.
Thanks,
Pikadex
Before you read this topic, please consider reviewing this mod. This mod has been out for a while, and I am still waiting on a review. Thanks.
Currently, the Golems have no leg/arm animations. So for now, you'll have to look at those silly Golems sliding around.
Finally, tell me if any information is missing! I'll try to add it in ASAP!

VERSION CHANGED IN - LIST OF WHAT THEY ARE
v0.2 - Midnite Ore, Ancidium Ore, Ancient Crafter (All Sides)
Now that you know what the items are, you probably are wanting some info on 'em! Well, here you go! Click the spoiler for whichever one you want to learn about.
Midnite Ore generates randomly in the Nether. It is used in the making of the Ancient Crafter, Bow of the Ancients, and Blade of the Ancients. In v0.3, Midnite Ore will spawn all throughout the Nether in patches up to eight, but are very rare. You can identify it from the purple ore spots on it.
Ancidium spawns just like Midnite Ore does. In v0.3, it spawns through the entire Nether, in patches of up to eight, and is very rare. It also is used in the same things as Midnite Ore is: Ancient Crafter, Bow of the Ancients, Blade of the Ancients. Pretty much what I am trying to say is Midnite Ore and Ancidium are pretty much useless without each other.
Almost all of the Ancient Blocks have the same stats. The only exceptions are Ancient Gravel, which is destroyed almost instantly, and Ancient Glass, which takes about the amount of time The others, Ancient Cobblestone, Ancient Moss Stone, Ancient Bricks, and Ancient Block of Iron, are destroyed a bit quicker than regular Cobblestone. However, they are all a bit less resistant to explosions than Obsidian. In other words, they cannot be destroyed by explosions in Vanilla Minecraft. Another thing to note is that the gravels DO fall.
The Ancient Crafter is to be the way you craft the Ancient Blocks. However, it has to be punched in Survival or Adventure mode to activate, and the GUI isn't even finished! I plan to work on it over the updates.
The Ancient Core Chunk is dropped by the Ancient Golem mob. As far as I know, normally one, sometimes two or three, are dropped. Using four of these in a 2x2 square, you can craft the Ancient Core, which will be explained in the next "spoiler".
Expensive and time consuming to obtain in the Ancient Core. One of the hardest materials to get, the Ancient Core is required once in the Ancient Crafter, and twice in the Blade of the Ancients and the Bow of the Ancients. It also has the Enchantment effect!
One of the almighty weapons from the time of the past is called the Blade of the Ancients. It deals 13.5 hearts of damage, has a whopping 10,000 uses, and mines things faster than the Diamond Sword. However, it cannot be enchanted. 13.5 hearts of damage is enough to kill most monsters in a single shot. 10,000 uses is about 6.4x more uses than a diamond tool!
Sharing many stats of the Blade of the Ancients, the Bow of the Ancients is almost the same, except the fact that it is a bow. However, it isn't any ordinary bow! It has no charge animation. I am working on making the bow an instant fire, but for now, you will have to charge it the same way, but without animation or zoom. For info on things such as damage or durability, check out the spoiler for Blade of the Ancient. (Damage currently does not work properly. Fix should be in v0.3_02)
This little guy, the Ancidium Rod, is used along with other items to craft the Bow of the Ancients and the Blade of the Ancients. You will only need to craft it one time in order to get both the Bow and the Blade of the Ancients. The only way you'll ever need to craft another quart of these guys is if you died and lost your Bow or Blade or even both, or if you actually managed to break it. But, chances are, that'll be one of the only times you will need to craft it in the world.
The Sancient, or Super Ancient, Blocks are to be created in the Ancient Crafter by putting their appropriate Ancient Block in. Because of that, I will have to add Ancient Blocks of Gold and Diamond. Sancient Blocks have an explosive resistance equal to Obsidian, and all (except Ancient Gravel) take a bit longer than Ancient Blocks do. However, they are mainly made to allow a second alternative Ancient Block.
Now, you guys have info of the items. You know what the items look like. You are probably asking "How do I get these items in survival mode?" Well, you can currently craft these items...
Ancient Chunk
Ancient Bits
Ancient Core
Ancidium
Block of Ancidium
Ancidium
Midnite Bar
Midnite Block
Midnite Bar
Ancidium Rod
Ancient Crafter
Bow of the Ancients (Works the opposite way, too)
Blade of the Ancients
Also: A shapeless recipe involving three diamonds. It creates a few Ancient Core Chunks. You can vote on if you want this to stay!
As you can see, I lack in recipes. But, this is only early WIP! A work in progress.
There are a total of two mobs you can find in the Ancient Blocks mod. One being the Ancient Golem, the other being the Mini Golem.
Attack AI: monster (will attack you always) HP: 150 (75 hearts) Damagedealt per hit: ~ 8 (4 hearts) Speed: Slow Height: ~ 3 blocks Info: The stats of the Ancient Golem are higher than the Iron Golem's by a bit. When killed they will drop Ancient Chunks. Normally, only one, but they appear to be able to drop two or three or even none sometimes. However, don't be expecting to find them to easily, as they are quite rare. Or, if you are in creative mode, you COULD just use it's spawn egg. Ancient Golems are Fire-proof, which means that they cannot be killed by Fire or Lava. They can break down doors, too. So be careful!
Texture is now a Better definition! Attack AI: monster (will attack you always) HP: 75 (37.5 hearts) Damage dealt per hit: ~ 4 (2 hearts) Speed: Very Fast Height: A bit under 1 block Info: Although it has half damage, half HP, and less than half the size of his cousin, the Ancient Golem, the Mini Golem may be more lethal, only because of it's insane speed. It attacks you by circling around you at a very fast speed (not intentional, but I will keep). When killed, it will drop 0 - 3 Ancient Core Bits, which are used to craft an Ancient Core Chunk, which are, of course, used to craft an Ancient Core. The Mini Golems are still quite rare, although not as rare as the Ancient Golems. Like it's bigger cousin, it is fire-proof.

I came here to ask if you needed any help with textures but you're pretty darn great.
This mod looks awesome and I can't wait until it's done! I'll probably end up making a Mod Review if my slow laptop would film minecraft properly.

Welcome! This is my first mod I ever created called Ancient Blocks. At the moment, it won't be too advanced. However, once I am to increase my skills of modding Minecraft to a higher level, I will make my mod more advanced, too! Ancient Blocks edits no base classes, so it shouldn't be incompatible with anything. I also have a secondary topic on Planet Minecraft. If you would like to go there, please click on this sentence.

Thank you! I just need to get one of my topics answered so I can get the mob damage working...
EDIT: Well... I have a few, I guess.
I will, once I finish v0.2.
Thanks, guys!
