1) There are a few things in LoMaS that affect performance- the most notable is that Leaves and Animals both tick infrequently in order to function properly, so if you're in an area with a lot of animals or leaves, that could be affecting your performance, but I would potentially need more details in order to pinpoint down what sort of issues you're experiencing.

2) Are you playing on a server? LoMaS has a 'PolyZones' module that dynamically sends/updates zones of protection via small coordinates- for consistency purposes (since LoMaS is designed as a multiplayer experience) players must successfully have the files before being allowed to move. Since you were connected and unlocked, you successfully received the files.

Love this mod. When is the next update planned?

An updated version of the LoMaS jar has been uploaded to CurseForge for downloading!

In this small release:

Fixes:

Fixed Cooked Fish showing an invalid name.

Fixed a bug where certain blocks were indestructible.

Fixed bugs related to Dark Oak Sticks.

Fixed a bug that could cause sick animals to improperly drop resources.

Additions:

Added a new block, but it doesn't currently do anything.

The admin commands should work in singleplayer if you have cheats enabled. I probably should have listed how to use them!

The base command types are as follows:

/acs (admin control systems, minimal functionality atm)

/pz (polyzones, fully functional)

/ccs (chat control)

/scm (can be used to 'cheat' your class exp and level)

If you follow up any of those four base commands with ' help' then it will give you a list of their applicable uses.

As for the carpet, thanks! One of the mods that adjusts what can-and-can't be breakable with certain tools is probably interfering with that. I'll look into it!

Would greatly appreciate it! The twisted irony is that using rocks to craft the stuff added by the mod, while still having the vanilla stuff, is pretty unimmersive ;P

Thanks for the reply!

Any chance of letting someone else update one of the sub-mods? I'm particularly interested in the 'Harder Wildlife' mod, and would be willing to update the code to 1.8.9 if allowed.

Is there any chance of adding a config option to disable the vanilla workbench/furnace/chests and changing the Immersive variants to have the vanilla recipe, so that players will just naturally use the Immersive options?

Are these mods planned to update to higher versions, such as 1.8.9? If not that's fine, but they're so amazing, would love to have more version flexibility!

Still looking for feedback. I don't know what to improve unless you guys tell me what you like or don't like, after all!

Update!

I have opened a public Issues page for the LoMaS mods: https://bitbucket.org/bitevo/lomas/issues?status=new&status=open

If that doesn't make it obvious, I'm going to be releasing Alpha versions of the LoMaS mod jar, updated for 1.8.9. In good news, I fixed the horrendous performance bug that was plaguing the old version, and now I have a public server up and running for testing! To prevent anonymous destruction, if you want the IP for the LoMaS Alpha Server, send me a PM and I'll get back to you with the IP asap.

Thanks!

Is there any way to disable the generation of Eelgrass? I've been fiddling with a mod that removes all water generated in the world entirely (even ice) for personal reasons, but even after removing all of the water, Eelgrass still spawns surrounded by water after the fact, meaning that it doesn't seem possible to remove all the water without removing Eelgrass.

Would appreciate help. Thanks for the great mod!

Added road blocks today! Fairly simple stuff. When you stand on a road block, your movement speed is increased by a flat amount. Note that block, slab, and stairs versions of the road have all been added. They are crafted using a mix of Cobblestone, Gravel, and Andesite. Above the road is a gravel and cobblestone block for visual clarification.

Here's a picture!

Note: I make changes pretty constantly so some of these pictures could easily be out of date.

LOOKING FOR FEEDBACK!

Economy

• Three types of coins, Bronze, Silver, and Gold, each worth 10 of the previous value.
• Bank systems - Infinite, secure storage of currency. Has a chest-sized storage space for items.
• Safe Block - a more convenient, local currency storage solution- minus the "permanent security" benefits of the bank.
• Taxes and income from NPC management
• Inter-player Trading GUI

Citizens

• Adds Pigman citizens. They are loyal, placid creatures that can produce tax revenue for their landlord
• Housing Deeds place a 'Citizen Chest' which will spawn a citizen after a short delay
• Citizens will become more or less happy depending on the house they have been given to live in, the decorations within it, and other factors
• Citizen happiness determines their eventual productivity, giving income and products once a day!

Specializations

• http://i.imgur.com/BvVnrsS.gif
• Normal players have been substantially weakened in all regards- blocks break slower, health is lower, damage is worse, movement is slower
• These changes are designed to encourage reliance on other players on a populated server, and maintain the flow of the economy
• Crafting takes time to complete for quality-based items
• Farming produces inedible, low-quality foods unless the fields are tended to properly using fertilizer
• Animals will become sick and unusable if not handled properly and fed regularly

Big-F

• Destroyed leaves regrow when near their parent tree
• Most blocks cannot be destroyed by hand, and require their properly tool to be broken at all
• Leaves drop sticks when destroyed
• Sticks can be crafted into planks, then into tools
• "Wood-type" sticks (Oak Wood Stick, Acacia Wood Stick, etc)
• Daytime Beds can be used to set a players spawn point without having to sleep in it
• Chat names are labeled with a players current faction

ACS

• Set of admin-only commands for ensuring server security
• These tools are not meant to deal with "griefing" only to ensure that players are not cheating and to debug other features

PolyZones

• Zone protection mod that includes clientside hooks, which allows for a more immersive 'protection' mod.
• Explosion, firespreading, and mob protection!
• Meant for use only in fundamentally important server locations.
• Zone generation takes a long time when first created, but calculations are lightning fast afterwards.
• Not designed for "average user" usage. Primarily for protecting admin-created structures that make up a servers "setting."

Height

• Moves the render height for clouds from 128 to 196. It really is that basic.

Factions

• Adds a road block that you can run faster on!
• Joinable, editable, manageable factions
• Commandable Warrior Pigmen NPC's- can be equipped with armor/weapons

Outlands

• Prevents the player from moving outside the map boundaries (temporary)

Upcoming features are listed in order of priority, and the list will be updated (probably) infrequently. The list itself is subject to change pretty much whenever I want to change it. Sorry guys, such is the curse of being a casual developer.

1. Roads that boost player movespeed when moving on them Done!
2. Skill tree overhaul- branching options, no rigidity
3. Guard NPC's that can defend territory
4. Limiting player inventory to just the hotbar except when wearing a backpack that slows players down
5. Inter-player trading GUI Done!
6. Ideal server map, including 4 large guildhalls, a grid of claimable territories, player-controlled armies for disputing territories, and NPC territory defenders (from other players and NPCs as well)
7. Add the Outlands, where, after a certain distance away from the center of the map, hostile mobs become more numerous, dangerous, and unpredictable the further out you go. Expeditions past this distance are extremely deadly, but the rewards are equally precious.
8. Admin Tower, an extradimensional place of mindgames and nightmares where, if a player passes all of the puzzles and trials, they will be granted a wish.
9. More player classes, other interesting stuff? Community suggestions?

Also, why "LoMaS"? It's an in-joke with my group of friends, and it just kinda stuck eventually.

Note: This mod is currently compatible with Forge 2043- so when installing Forge, be sure to use that version.

If you find any issues, use the Bitbucket to report them. It's easier that way.

For anyone interested, I've started hosting an Alpha server for LoMaS that's running the latest version. It's very barebones at the moment, but hopefully we can start filtering in and exploring.

The full server address is 167.114.116.145:26137
