Honestly i can't exactly tell WHY i hate this update so much, I just do. Combat feels LESS fun for me since they started. It may be a little better now though. I gave up on MC about two weeks ago and moved over to other games.

I think the biggest issues for me was the simple fact that rather then doing things to make the mobs more interesting they are just NERFING the living crap out of EVERYTHING the player has.

I probably wont be back. It may work great for PvP but "make you do less damage and take more" is not a fun way to go when making a game more challenging.

--Edit--

I would also like to add i dont want to see these changes removed entirly... and i know that seeing all the previous updates that server owners will have some power of the magnitude of these changes, whether it be via settings or command blocks.

I really just cant be bothered to play the game in this current state. I don't give a toot about PvP... But that seems to be about all anyone cares about anymore. Maybe the games just outgrown me?

regardless, i hope it works out and the game does well off it. I hope they give us some new tools so people can find better things to make then PvP minigames.

Im working on this command block system, its a big box of command blocks intended to be mc-edited into any normal world and enhance the survival mode experience. I also intend to post pictures of it and more details of it later tonight.
Would this be the correct sub-thread for it to be posted?
i cant decide if it belongs here or in command blocks section

So even if I will stand still when having (for example) four health points, food bar will be drained during health regeneration?

I’ve stopped developing this mod for 2 reasons:

1 - I'm done with Minecraft, having played it since alpha 1.1.2_01. I've experienced everything this game has to offer. Since Minecraft was released (end of beta) it has become way too diluted for its simple outset. Almost everything that has been released since is just content and no new gameplay experiences. Every time I play I get irritated by the amount of lost potential and it makes me want to create a complete overhaul mod, though I simply don’t see that happening.

2 - The community. The immature, the trolls, the griefers, etc. This community is full of them and they’re ruining it for the rest of us. Now I get it, I like to let loose and have a laugh every once in a while myself. But the amount of stupidity on display is just cringe worthy. The signal to noise ratio is too low and finding good quality content is difficult.

Is this the end for Advanced Hud?

Update: Maxpowa is now developing the mod.
No. As of this post Advanced Hud is public domain, meaning it’s yours to do with as you wish. I won’t release the source though, as I’d rather have someone experienced working on the mod. Also my code shouldn’t be used as training material as it contains a ton of bad habits. Hurry up though, as I’ll be taking the downloads offline next month (June 30th)

please read the FAQ before posting or sending me a pm!
DO NOT ASK FOR UPDATES! It is against the rules. I am working on the update. I don't know when it's done. Advanced Hud will let you personalize your heads-up display. It is a mod that is entirely focused on esthetics and customizability while not adding or changing any game mechanics. Every hud item has its own menu with it's own set of parameters allowing you to set each hud item as you see fit. One of the key features of the mod is that you can reposition the hud items to anywhere on the screen. On top of that Advanced Hud adds 3 new hud items: a lightmeter, a minimap (beta) and a death counter (for livestreaming, etc) and it is ever expanding with new features being added every update. The writer of this page just blatantly copied the description from the advanced hud topic and was to lazy to even read what it said. Shame on him.

Q1: Your mod does not work on my computer, it crashes the game or it won't show the settings menu.
A: Please check how to install the mod again (and use multiMC this time, no really).
Try removing other mods that change stuff to the hud.
Report the crash (with log) or incompatibility (also check the notes in the incompatibilities section) in this topic.
Please keep in mind that there's nothing that can tick me off more than someone saying the mod doesn't work and not providing any other information (in short).

Q2: Is it possible to mod the hud from mod X/Y
A: No, the way java works and (to my knowledge) the lack of a decent hud api means that adding hud items from other mods is a lot of effort for little reward.

Q3: Can you make the inventory screen movable
A: No, this mod is strictly HUD only. Making the inventory screen movable will add a lot of incompatibilities.

Q4: Can I add your mod to my modpack?
A: I do not allow my mod in modpacks, because modpacks take time update all the mods in them. This will create a backlog where people will ask about problems in old versions, while those versions are no longer supported. And I'm not willing to waste my time fixing problems with older versions of the mod or having to take another step asking people what version of the mod they have. EDIT: No means no, asking your users not to ask for help with older versions is not how the internet works. Could you please stop messaging me.

Q5: Does your mod work in multiplayer?
A: Everything that is changed is pure client side, so yes.







Advanced Hud 4.8.1 for Minecraft 1.4.7- Added the item tooltips hud item. I've applied my own coding to this one, so it's not the exact same as Mojang's; It won't appear every time the item takes damage and it will use the item's rarity color.
- Added a scroll bar to the settings menu as the mod now has 16 hud items which can't fit in a 3 * 5 grid anymore.

you can find older versions in version history below.







I strongly recommend you use multiMC for installing mods
- Install modloader or forge (forge 3.3.7 and up)
- place the advancedHUD zip file in the mods folder (make the folder if it's not there).



Note: this list is old. The mods listed here might not be incompatible anymore.
- The thirst mod - disables Advanced HUD when installed
- CJB's mods - disables Advanced HUD when installed
- VR-ChatMod v062 - causes a crash when you click a link in the chat.
- More Health Enhanced - Overwrites base classes.
- What's my Light Level - Overwrites base classes, while it should be using a modloader hook.
- Village Info - Overwrites base classes, while it should be using a modloader hook.
- Rei's minimap - place the Rei's minimap zip file in the mods folder. Don't install it in the jar.

Mods that change the hud are highly likely to be incompatible with this mod.
If you find any conflicts with the current version and other mods, that are not on this list, please report them in this thread.

NO LONGER APPLICABLE.

Big news everyone.

After the 1.3 update, this mod will be discontinued. Don't be upset though- I have good reasons for doing this and I won't be abandoning the decoration-yearning community. So, here's what's going to happen:
I'll be updating to 1.3 as easily as possible, and then stopping development on the Decoratives Mod. I will then be creating a new system for my mods that share a common base. I'll try to stick to small mods that can work together but don't need each other to work. I will be making decoration mods that add chairs, tables, carpets, etc. One of the main reasons for this is how poorly and inefficiently coded this mod is. I started it back when I was new to Java and programming in general.
So don't worry, you won't lose all the great things of the mod. It will just be changing form.

In a recent update:


Have you ever wanted more variety in your blocks? Do you want a fancier castle? Well now you know about the Decoratives Mod! This mod adds decorative blocks to the game to add fancyness. These include tables, carpets, stained glass, glowstone torches, some nice patterned blocks, smooth sandstone, and concrete.

Content (new blocks, new recipes):

Tables
New in the 1.3.0 update, I bring you a long awaited feature: TABLES! These are sensitive to the tables and blocks around them and will fit themselves to look good in any environment! They've also got 12 different types!


More Table Pics:

Chairs
Do you want to sit down and rest for once? Are your stubby, square legs getting sore? Are your tables lonely? Well now there's chairs! You can make them with or without armrests, out of stone and all three colors of planks.


More awesome chair pictures:

Stained Glass
Ever wanted to build with colored glass? Maybe some kind of church? Well now you can! Just smelt yourself up some pure glass then combine it with almost any type of dye and you've got yourself some stained glass!
BEST WITH FANCY GRAPHICS ON



Carpets
Have you ever wanted a nice looking living room carpet to go in between your stair-built couch and your gigantic fireplace? Do you want a different floor on your second floor than the stone ceiling of the first? Well, now all your dreams are coming true, because you can now make carpet out of any color of wool, just by placing two of that color of wool next to eachother in the crafting table!




Fire Pits
Are you tired of sleeping your first few nights in Minecraft freezing your #$@ off? Would you like a small campfire when exploring? Would you like to do strange sheep sacrifices to Notch in burning sheep in a fire pit? Well now you can. Just craft this with a half slab of your choice (exept wood, of course) and a piece of coal, and you've got yourself a fire pit made from that respective material.


Colored Planks
What?? Colored planks??? Do you mean the colors of the rainbow??? NO DUMMY! I mean colors matching the logs! Now there's birch planks, pine/"redwood" planks, and regular old normal planks!



Bark Stripper
If you want some colored planks, you need to make a bark stripper. Then you follow the instructional image above.



Fancy Cobblestone
Ladies and gentlemen, is your cobblestone too boring? Do you hate that plain, ugly look of normal cobblestone? Well here it is, Fancy Cobblestone!


Fancy Clean Stone
Do you think the clean stone look is too plain? Want to be in top style as a wealthy minecraftian? Build your house out of high class Fancy Stone!


Fancy Wood
Bored of regular old planks? Want some higher class wood? Want tiles for your kitchen? Craft some fancy wood!


Smooth Sandstone
Do you think that your sandstone is to chunky and rocky? Want some smooth, nice looking sandstone? Just chuck some sandstone in a furnace and get some smooth sandstone!


Concrete
If you're like me, you think gravel is completely useless. Well not anymore! Now you can smelt gravel into concrete, which you can use to build better-looking roads, skyscrapers, city buildings, and to take one step closer to the modern era- in Minecraft!



Pure Glass
Have you ever been putting windows in your house, and you think to yourself: "I wish I had a clearer view through my windows"? Well, think no more! Now you can just put some glass in a furnace and get Pure Glass, completely clear without blocking your vision!


Glowstone Torches
Do you want more light from you torches? Do you have too much glowstone? Well with glowstone torches, all your problems will go away! Giving off a light level of 15, Glowstone Torches effectively produce more light than normal torches! In fact, they give off the same light as sunlight! Now, being glowstone, they're not on fire, but they're hot enough that they still give off smoke. Just craft it like a normal torch, but with glowstone dust instead of coal. Or, if you're one who likes to overuse torches, put your glowstone dust in the furnace and recieve heated glowstone dust! With heated glowstone dust, you can craft four times the torches with the same amount of glowstone!

-----

Double Slabs
Tired of placing your double slabs painfully slowly? Do you just want to build out of double slabs because it looks nice? Well with improved double slabs, your pains and annoyances end here! Just craft a slab on top of another and BAM! You've got yourself a new double slab! (This mod also gives double slabs a name instead of "unnamed 43")

I have just updated the mod to 1.3. Some things are a bit glitchy, but you can get everything to work. Keep in mind though that this update has gone through very little testing. If you find any major bugs please report them to me. Other than that, I won't be working on this mod again.
