Oh wow, where to begin. I have not been able to post here because of how busy I have been lately with college, marching band, family, and just about everything else.
First, this is not plagiarism. I was working on this mod far before the other moon mod was released. Also, I made my mod use a spaceship when the other mod used a portal. It has been different all along, and if you don't care to pay attention enough to see that, then please kindly leave my post.
Second, ShochAhPi is not quite done for 1.0, but once it is I can get going on updating. The difficulty is that the person in charge of terrain generation is quite lazy and will only start looking at it once Shockah updates his stuff. :blink.gif: I also had a small setback, where I lost half of my code and am working on trying to fix what broke. Pretty much everything that I changed since the last update is now broken. ugh. Repairs are underway, but it could be quite some time before the next update is working, and I sincerely apologize for the long wait.
Third, the next update will hopefully have these new features:
-New level generation: hopefully including massive underground caverns.
-Shield doors: think Star Wars style hangar bay doors, they are still experimental and not working, but I plan on having them done for the update
-rock monsters: They will be very big, very dangerous, immune to arrows, damaged by pickaxes, and live in the previously mentioned caverns.
-fully implemented vacuum physics: no more wooden houses on the moon, any block not made of stone, metal, or certain other materials will be broken and dropped as items, lava and water will freeze. Mostly works now, problems with placing blocks directly into the vacuum.
Do not fear, I have not given up on the mod, I have just been too busy to give it the attention it needs and deserves. Thank you all very much for your continued support! :biggrin.gif:
I forgot to mention, I will add a more detailed install guide when the next update comes out!
You're in marching band? Awesome! That means that you're, like, 100 times cooler than I already thought you were! And I already thought you were super cool. Yeah. Marching band takes so much time. I'm in marching band in my high school, and it already takes up most of my life. I can only imagine how busy you must be in college. Well, I'll be looking forward to your next update. Keep up the good work! :smile.gif:
Fine by me, but I insist that if you do, please don't use any of my characters (or any of the plot I used), because I am planning on writing one myself once I am finished this one.
By the way, would you mind if I use the name Rebecca in my book? It wouldn't be the same character, but just the same name. The reason I would like to use the name is because the name has a very special meaning to me, for my own personal reasons. If it is a problem, then just let me know not to use it. Although I'm not even sure whether I am going to be able to write a book or not, now that I am extremely busy with school and marching band.
Well, on the bright side, even though it keeps on getting delayed, that just (hopefully) means that it will be even better when it finally does come out than it otherwise would have been. If that sentence made no sense, then I'm sorry. I suck at putting my thoughts down in words.
yeah its my first mod, I'll try to create a new bow in the future.
Why is everybody so negative? if you dont have anything nice to say please dont post it
Yeah, people are always going to post negative comments. Arguing doesn't seem to do much good either, they still always complain. To be honest, if I wasn't so lazy, I would probably take out all of my frustration and anger by saying negative things on the internet, too. But I have to admit, there is already a mod like this one that adds Iridium (might be with two "r"s). But I'm sure you didn't mean to copy the mod, you just haven't heard of it. Good job for a first mod, even if it isn't the most original first mod. But hey, we all have to start somewhere, right?
I've realized that I haven't thanked everyone nearly enough for their support! Thank you all for continually posting on this thread, reminding me to get the heck on with the story!
It is a bit difficult to stear the plot where I want it to go, right now. I have a general direction I wish to navigate to, but I need to make it as seemless as possible. For instance, why does that guy have an egg with him? What is the importance of it? Why do I, as a reader, feel like the author is beating me over the head with clues about what the importance is?
As I like to say; Time will Tell.
I hate writer's block. I get it almost everytime I try to write. :sad.gif:
Awesome mod! The music part should be easy for me, since I play flute and guitar. I like how this mod adds to the game's "fine arts" that Notch made, but never expanded on.

Don't worry. While I may end up using a name that you used, I will not intentionally try to copy anything that you have written. I may not even write a book about the Aether, as I do not know much about its lore, and I don't know if I have permission. I sent a message to kingbdogz asking if I have permission to write a book about the Aether, but he has not responded.
How about this: I could write a full reseach journal as I work on the story, and show some of the entries in a chapter or two when they are required for the plot. When I finish the book, I will release the research journal in its entirety in a separate thread. How does that sound?
Also, as a side note, anyone know if there is a lot of lore for the Aether mod? Might be an interesting thing to write, the lore of the Aether. Who knows where stuff will lead.
Well, I don't know if there is a lot of lore for the Aether mod, and I haven't read the latest comments regarding your question, so I don't know if someone else already offered something, but I think that I might try to write a book about the Aether. Your book has inspired me, and now I feel like writing stories.

Oh, wow. I figured such a big mod would require some other mods like forge or modloader.
