-snip-

The current version is 1.3.2. while this mod is only up to date for 1.2.5. it won't work, sorry.

Thats what they were facepalming to.

I'm very sorry about the lack of an update. This recent Minecraft update has been very discouraging for me, as I need to pretty much re-learn how to mod and re-write all of my mods. I do intend to update my mods.

Welcome! Here you can find all of my released mods. You can also find them on my website. Webmilio (My modding partner) and my website also has information on our newest mods. For news and updates, follow me on twitter @WiduXUpdates and/or @TheWiduX


MoreSlabs | Easter | SpawnPlate | Decorations | Christmas | Prerequisites/Installation/Troubleshooting | Bottom of Post





This mod adds many new slabs (103 as of v3.1) and a whole new type of slab to the game (occupying the top half of the block), using only 10 configurable block IDs. It is multiplayer compatible, and will work with any texturepack (even HD packs).

This mod is made for anyone who celebrates easter. There's 6 different types of eggs that generate in the world that you can find and receive prizes for! There's also some chocolate and some other items that you'll have to discover yourself. And of course you can do all of this with your friends and family, as it is multiplayer compatible!
Thanks to Webmilio for assistance in the multiplayer port and other parts of the mod! Thanks to Mirigreen for assistance with textures!

This mod adds one thing: A pressure plate that sets your spawn point when it's stepped on. Configurable block ID and even a chat verbosity option. Wanting to make a puzzle/adventure map? This could be very helpful! Original idea by Yinon Malki (GamesWhatElse). The texture used to be yellow, and the crafting used to use gold, but this has since changed.


Mod showoff by GamesWhatElse (The guy who came up with the idea!)

Only one recipe, here it is:

I'd like to see the biome code rewritten to be more dynamic - none of this pre-defined "swamp"/"desert"/"forest" stuff. Here's what I had in mind; I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.

---

Basic Terrain Generation
It would start with 4 basic variables:

1. Base Height
2. Precipitation
3. Temperature
4. Terrain (physical contour)

The Base Height variable would have four five possible values (sea level being at Y:64):

1. Ocean (down to Y: ~32)
2. Coast (Y: ~60-64)
3. Beach (Y: ~64-70)
4. Inland (Y: ~70-120)
5. Plateau (Y: ~120 and up) (added 2012-08)

Each of the other variables would have three possible values:

Precipitation

1. Dry
2. Average
3. Wet

Temperature

1. Hot
2. Temperate
3. Cold

Terrain

1. Flat
2. Hills
3. Mountains

The game would generate 4 different "biome" maps, one for each variable, based on the world seed. The opposite value areas for the first three variables (ocean/inland, dry/wet, hot/cold) would never border each other, but would always have at least a few chunks of the respective moderate value(s) as "buffer" zones, ensuring that hot swamps never directly border snowy areas. The opposite values of the Terrain variable would not be restricted by this rule (although abrupt transitions should be kept somewhat rare), thus allowing for occasional unique features such as a mesa rising out of a flat desert, or a steep-cliffed island jutting out of a serene coastal bay.

The four variable maps would be overlaid, and it would be their combination that would govern the actual blocks to be generated. For example:

• [Coast/Beach]-Hot-Wet-Flat = Swamp
• Inland-Hot-Wet-[any] = Jungle
• Inland-Hot-Dry-[Flat/Hills] = Desert
• Coast-[any]-[any]-Mountains = this or this
• Beach-[any]-[any]-Flat = typical beach
• Ocean-[any]-[any]-[any] = Varied underwater terrain (unaffected by Precipitation, although a Cold value for Temperature would result in an ice-covered ocean)

Note that with these suggested changes, the starting height of the Terrain values (flat/hills/mountains) would be determined by the Base Height, so a 25m hill in an Ocean would only reach up to around Y:57, while the same size hill in an Inland area would reach Y:95 or so.

Terrain Features
With the basic terrain determined, special features would be added based on the values of any given terrain.

Precipitation
Precipitation would change from being a global, "all areas simultaneously" occurrence to a local one. It would occur frequently in Wet areas, and occasionally in Average areas. Dry areas could have either an extremely low chance of precipitation (1/365 or so), or simply none at all.

The frequency of thunderstorms vs. regular rainfall/snowfall would remain much as it is now.

In Cold areas, the precipitation would take the form of snow, and in Temperate/Hot areas, rain. In addition to the familiar thin layer of snow that exists now, if a Cold-Wet area has a thunderstorm, any blocks over a certain height (say, 96 or so) would have a full-sized snow block added on top. A limit would be placed as to how many full-sized snow blocks can pile up - something like 2-3 perhaps.

Rivers
Rivers would be generated to "flow" from Mountains to the nearest Hills, then on to the nearest Flat area, and from there to the nearest Ocean. In Wet areas, a river would have a chance of flooding its banks during a thunderstorm, which would mean simply duplicating the top level of water source blocks directly upwards one level, allowing them to flow outwards "naturally" (according to Minecraft water physics, at least). The additional water blocks would automatically be removed at the end of the thunderstorm.

Flora
Forests would have a chance to be generated in any area that was Inland and not Dry. A Wet area would have a much higher chance to generate a forest. The type of trees composing the forest would of course be affected by the Temperature value, with Cold-[Hills/Mountains] more likely to have pine trees than any other tree type, and Wet-Hot areas typically generating swamp or jungle trees.

Mushrooms would be restricted to [Wet/Average]-[Hot/Temperate] areas, cacti would be restricted to Dry-Hot areas, and sugarcane could even have the must-be-next-to-water restriction lifted if planted in Wet-[Hot/Temperate] areas.

Fauna
Certain mobs could also be restricted to specific value ranges - imagine if slimes were no longer restricted to specific random chunks, but instead could only spawn in Wet-Hot areas, or if squid only spawned in Oceans rather than in just any old water block (RIP Pond Squid, Cave Squid, and Mob Grinder Squid!).

As far as the oft-mentioned temperature variation with altitude... 64m just isn't enough of a change in altitude to affect temperatures in any significant fashion, so unless and until Mojang increase the map height limits, I'm ignoring any altitude/temperature interactions Now that map height reaches 192m above sea level, elevation affecting the temperature is not too far-fetched. Bring on the snow-capped mountains!!

If you like this idea, consider sending @Jeb_ a link to this thread... just don't bombard the man! He doesn't need to be barraged by hundreds of near-identical tweets - anything more than half a dozen or so is just wrong.

EDIT 2012-01-26: Added river overflowing and a new Precipitation section to Terrain Features.

EDIT 2012-08-15: Adjustments to accommodate the raised map height limit (5th value for Base Height; elevation/temperature changes)
