No Hold
I think most of you probably already know this by now, but thought I would make it official (with big Red writing). I am putting this project on hold at the moment.
Right now I am super busy with uni, in my free time from uni (which isn't a whole lot) I am also applying for jobs. Basically I really need all the free time for these 2 task so I can "get my life together" and developing for this mod really doesn't help that.
But fear not, I will endeavvour to log back on evey once in a while to keep the mod at least up to date, so barring any major changes to the underlying minecraft codebase there should still be a working copy. Furthemore the source code is avaliable (as it always has been) on Github (may not have pused the 1.5 update though). so anyone should feel free to add features they want to the mod.
nerd-boy
p.s. I have also disabled my PM & comments, everytime I log on I am just flooded with messages pestering me to update battlegear.
Check out The Atlanticcraft's review of a pre-release of alpha 6 with it's sexy new multiplayer features. Make sure you Like his video/subscribe.
The aim of this mod is to provide the player with controllable npcs that will help you fight enemies. This is actually a re-iteration of an old mod I made a while ago (Battlecraft) which I unfortunately had to let go. There are a number of mods that provide npcs, however this mod will focus on soldier type npcs. The other thing thatwill set this mod apart from other similar mods is the ability for units to gain experience and upgrade to more powerful units as well as the great deal of customisationof the visual appearance of the soldiers.
Creating Units[/anchor]
Units are spawned from a spawn banner. Banners are created by placing 2 pieces of the same coloured wool on top of a stick.
Note: The banners can also be dyed
A banner must be placed on top of a block that has 2 free spaces above it (the banner takes up 2 blocks like a door).
Right clicking the banner brings up the spawning interface.
The colour of the banner will determine the team colours that the unit will be wearing. The units appearance can be customised by using the slide-bars on the bottom left of the interface. For the militia the skin, hair, eyes and weapon can all be changed. All of these options are purely cosmetic and have no effect on how the unitperforms in battle. The amount of customisation the mod allows is mind boggling. Spawning of soldiers required payment of gold nuggets. Gold ingots & blocks can also be used and you will automatically be given change (9 nuggets = 1 ingot, 9
ingots = 1 block). Spawning is free in creative mode
The Units[/anchor]
Please note I have been slightly changing these stats, refer to the in game menu for up to date states
Militia
Spawned From: Banner
The Militia is little more than a peasant who has been thrust into the middle of a battle. They are armed with whatever they find lying around and their clothing offers
little in the way of protection.
Attack: 4
Health: 15
Armour: 2
Man at Arms
Upgraded From: Milita
The man at Arms form the backbone of the armies of the land. They are provided with iron weapons and chainmail armour allowing them to be both durable and deadly
Attack: 6
Health: 20
Armour: 6
Knight
Upgraded From: Man at Arms
The Knight is provided with the best iron based weapons, armour and shields. Their heavy armour and shields make them the most durable warriors in the land.
Attack: 8
Health: 25
Armour: 15
Special: Arrow Block - 25% of all projectile damage is ignored by the Knight
Sellsword
Upgraded From: Man at Arms
Armed with 2 of the best iron based weapons in the land, The Sellsword are easily able to take down more heavily armed foes. This however does come at the expense of their armor, which is less heavy then other units.
Attack: 9
Health: 25
Armour: 12
Special: Penetrate Armour - A small proportion of the damage the Sellsword causes ignores armor
Special: Leap - The Sellsword leaps at it's target (I am not sure if this is actually working yet)
Spearman
Upgraded From: Milita
Although the Spearman's weapons may be slightly unwieldy, they more than make up for it in the extended range their iron weapons provide. Coupled with their chain based
armour this makes the Spearman a formidable force.
Attack: 6
Health: 20
Armour: 6
Special: Extended Reach - The Spearman's weapon allows it to attack from a couple of blocks away
Special: Slow Attack - Due to the Spearman's unwieldy weapon, the Spearman attacks at a slower rate
Pikeman
Upgraded From: Spearman
he extended range provided by the Pikeman's iron weapons allows them to attack enemy safely from a short range. Even those enemies that do get past their jabs must face
a heavily armoured foe.
Attack: 8
Health: 25
Armour: 13
Special: Extended Reach - The Pikeman's weapon allows it to attack from a couple of blocks away
Special: Slow Attack - Due to the Pikeman's unwieldy weapon, the Spearman attacks at a slower rate
Commanding Units[/anchor]The current command will be shown in the display text above the soldier. The health bar is displayed just below this, it will change colour from green to red dependingon the current health. Below the health bar is the experience bar. Units will gain experience for every hit they preform against an enemy mob. The experience bar changesfrom purple to light blue.
After units have not seen an enemy for 15 seconds, they will sheath their weapon. At this point the unit will begin to slowly heal itself. Soldiers will also drink any potion you hand them.
Units will automatically break whatever it is they are doing if they see a mob (within 16 blocks) to attack the mob. Mobs will also walk towards and attack units. Mob do not currently attack exploding mobs (eg creepers) as this would be akin to suicide. Likewise units do not currently attack units on different teams.
Pointing at a soldier from less than 5 blocks away and pressing the 'X' button will select the soldier. Multiple soldiers can be selected.
Alterntivly soldiers can be selected using the trumpet. This item will select all soldiers in a 15 block radius. It is crafted like so
*Any colour wool can be used.
When selected the Order menu will appear on the right side of the screen
The soldiers current order can be changed by pressing the up and down arrows and selected by pressing the Return (Enter) key. Pressing the 'C' key will close the menuwithout issuing an order
Stand Guard
The stand guard command is the default command for units. In this command the unit will stand in place. They will only move if an enemy mob is seen, after the enemy hasbeen dealt with, the unit will return to its position.
Follow
The follow command allows you to set units to follow the commanding player. Units will continue to follow the player (unless an enemy is sighted) until told to doanother order.
Goto
The go to command is a way for you to more easily move your soldiers around a battlefield. When selected an arrow will be displayed on top of the block your mouse is over. Pressing select will cause all your selected units to move to this point. There is a limit on how far units can travel of 50 blocks. This can be changed in the config file (decrease to improve preformance and increase to improve distance)
Morale[/anchor]Mine & Blade units prefom better when they are well fed and surrounded by teammates. The current morale of a unit can be viewed by the colour of the order.
The current morale level will affect the following statistics- Attack damage
- Armour
- Walk speed
- Experience gain
- Feeding soldiers food (not rotten food)
- Having more soldiers around (the higher tier the more morale bonus)
- Making a killing blow on a mob.
- An ally making a killing blow
- Having a player nearby
- Degrading over time
- Feeding soldiers roten flesh
- Having enemies around
Multiplayer[/anchor]
Starting with alpha 6, Mine & Blade: Commander has the ability to set up multiplayer games. When started (using the command /mb-start) all players will be randomlly assigned a team (right now it is only red & yellow). Players will only be able to spawn & control soldiers of their own colour. Soldiers will also attack other soldiers on different teams (also players not in creative mode). Games can be ended by the command /mb-end.
Games are saved when you save a world and if you log on then off again you will be placed in the same team (Unless a new game has started). The mod will also attempt to keep the number of players even when new players log on.
Commands:
/mb-start : Starts a new Team Based Game
/mb-end : Ends current team based game
/mb-restart : ends current game and starts a new game (reshuffling teams)
Your current team symbol is displayed in the bottom right corner of the screen. The symbol of the team that another player is on will be displayed above their name. This will only be displayed if you have the Mine & Blade: Coremod (correctly) installed. Coremod is currently broken
In the future I will add the ability for the host to determine which teams are avaliabe, the optional ability for all players to select teams and a way to convert flags of different colours into your colour (this is the reason red & yellow were chosen)
Updates[/anchor]
As of alpha 5, Mine & Blade: Commander takes advantage of the amazing Mod Update Manager by Vazkii & TheWhiteWolves. This means whenever I issue an update, you will notified in game and linked to this page. There is also an option to download the mod directly, this will open a browser and download the latest version as normal. The only thing left for you to do is replace the old zip with the new. You can also view the changelog for the most recent update.
Furthermore, to any modders out there you should really think about taking advantage of this API. Its extremely easy to set up (I did it in less than 5 minutes) and we really should get behind and support Vazkii's amazing work
[/anchor]- Download and Install Minecraft Forge Universal
- Make sure you follow all the installation instructions for Forge.
- The mod was built on version 6.0.1.349, if you have troubles, try this version before posting about crashes.
- Download the latest version of Link Removed
- Place the downloaded Mine & Blade Commander.jar file in your mods directory
(Optional Client Only) Download Link Removed and place it in the "coremods" directory *. Coremod is currently broken- Run Minecraft
This file allows me to access the RenderPlayer.class without actually editing it to display the symbol above players heads. It is not required but highly recomended for multiplayer games. In addition it does not need to be updated when minecraft updates, it downloads the data required from the internet after minecraft updates (and I tell it to)
[/anchor]
Q: My game crashes, what do I do?
A: Make sure you followed all the installation instructions for both the mod & Forge. Also make sure you have no incompatible mods installed (either incompatible with this or Forge). If you are still having troubles I need a crash report and detailed description (when it crashed what other mods etc). Please read Crash Repots 101 about obtaining, reading, debugging and posting crash reports. I will likely ignore people not following these instructions.
Q: Can you work on Battlegear instead of this?
A: No. In fact I will scold & report anyone who asks this. It is against the forum rules to pester a modder to update. I have been very clear about the reasons I am not continuing that mod, please drop it.
Q: Can you add more player weapons/armour?
A: No, this mod is focusing on the units not adding stuff to the player. I don't want to take up item ids just to make new weapon clones that are better implemented in other mods. If you want new weapons try Balkon's weapon mod. It is a well thought out and balanced weapon mod.
Q: I have an Idea for a new feature
A: Feel free to post it (as long as it is not the idea stated in the above FAQ), but please read this post to make sure it's not already implemented and I am not planning on adding it later. Please also scan the last couple of pages for others recently asking for the same (or similar) ideas. This should help me by not being constantly posted the exact same suggestions.
Q: When using the goto or command or attacking the units lag
A: Reduce the pathfindSearch variable in the config File. I am still trying to find the best balance between usability and performance but it is largely computer dependent.
Q: I love your mod and wish to donate but I cannot find a donate button
A: Please do not donate to me, I do not do this to make money in any form (which is why I don't use adfy links). If you do have your heart set on donations, please send you donate to one of the many worthy charities, they could do many greater things with the money.

Known Bugs- The trumpet is not craftable if you downoladed early after release if you experience this re-download (it has been fixed now)
- There was also a problem with the final weapon choice for the spearman & the pikeman (it was displaying as a pink squared). This has also been fixed so if you experience this, redownload the mod.
- Mobs from Invasion mob do not see or attack Mine & blade units, even when attacked. Units from Mine & Blade still attack invasion mod NPCs , which in a way give the player a huge advantage, crippling the invasion mod

Shinon posted a message on Could use some helpPosted in: Modification Development
For this you will need to make another .java file, but in your "mod_warcraftCraft.java" file, you will need to add this to declare the item:
public static final Item itemLapis = new Itemlapis(239).setItemName("itemLapis");
And then in the section of 'public mod_warcraftCraft' you need to give it a name and register it:
itemLapis.iconIndex = ModLoader.addOverride("/gui/items.png", "/itemLapis.png"); ModLoader.addName(itemLapis, "Lapis Dust");
Doing that should register the item, anywhere you see "lapis" you should add in the name of your item. In this case I was making lapis dust! Okay and for the second file, call it something like "Item(Your Item Name).java" and all you need in is:
package net.minecraft.src; import java.util.Random; public class Itemlapis extends Item { public Itemlapis(int i) { super(i); maxStackSize = 64; } }
Basically it defines your item, and this is where you would put in any kind of property it has. For something that has no function other than crafting, all you need is the "super(i) and the maxstacksize! Again don't forget to change the Lapis.
So if you wanted to add it in a crafting recipe, that should be easy now, it would just be "Item.itemLapis" because that is what you called it as a variable "public static final Item itemLapis..."
If you weren't asking for a mini-howto make an item tutorial, well you just got one
If you already made one then just use what I said right above this.
I hope that made sense, and if you didn't understand it, or the code doesn't make sense, feel free to ask! Good luck!

1. Me and Epiclorax are the gamemakers, which means we get to send in delightful surprises, which can be good or bad. The only way you can become a gamemaker is by making a huge contribution to the setup (Examples: Hosting, wiring, trapping areas, working on map, etc.)
2. You may not leave th walled-off area. Anyone who does will automatically be disqualified and replaced.
3. You may not attempt to dig outside of the bedrock or out of the arena. Anyone out of the arena is disqualfied.
4. If you die, you're done, and your standings will be posted here, along with who killed you.
5. This server will be hosted from 8:00p.m. central standard time to 10:00p.m. on Fridays (unless someone else hosts, then it may be different.)
6. My screen will be recorded and posted here at the end with footage of all of the contestants.
7. If you cannot attend the first session for the games(I will notify all contestants and backups through message) you will become a backup and your backup will become a contestant. Note that if both of you do not show, you are disqualified.
Here is the current progress:
Map: Close to done!
Traps: Desgining, probing, working
Wiring: Almost done!
Contestants:
#1=firestarian
#2=BetaMan1313
#3=diamondshamrock
#4=mon43
#5=liljon0430
#6=ElegantHope
Backups(For when the contests cant make a session. NOTE: If both a backup and contestant can't make it, that person is disqualified. They also get to choose from a list of items what they want to send to their ally, but they don't get to choose when.):
TigerGym14(Don't know if that is user or not(Undecided))
Skittlezluver(Undecided)
scarrats(Undecided)
#1=RevinBlade
#2=???
#3=???
#4=???
#5=???
#6=???
To apply to be a contestant or backup, you can either message me through here or just reply to the topic. NOTE: We will only accept U.S. contestants. Make sure your message contains your username.
P.S. I realize something similar to this has been done in the past, but they are very infrequent in their project, so we will try to be much more efficient. We also accept mineshafter accounts, but you need to notify me first that you have a mineshafter.
