[Mod] Zeg's Mobs and Lava Temple [zmobs]

[Zeg9]

Welcome to ZMobs.
This adds a few mobs to minetest.
Of course, they have nice 3D models (this is maybe why I take time to add mobs).

Feel free to put your mob requests here.

It depends on Simple Mobs by PilzAdam (here), and, for lava temple, WorldEdit by sfan5 (github)
License is WTFPL for code, CC BY-SA 3.0 for media.
You can download it from Github, the .zip is here and the .tar.gz is here
Screenshots:
- Lava flan pictures

- Mese monster pics (it doesn't spawn in the nether anymore, only in caves)


Implemented mobs

• Mese monster shoots mese crystal fragments (you can't catch them, only they hurt you), and drops quite some mese if you kill him.
• Lava flan spawns inside lava and wants to play with you. But as he's made of lava, it may hurt. He drops lava orbs.

Lava orbs are used to craft a lava dagger.

The dagger will glow when you look in the direction of the lava temple.
When you are sure about where it is, just dig !
The temple will spawn between depth -50 and -500.

As said before, more are coming soon, maybe even some animals :).

love it. take time on models and this could be great.
A mob idea: A lava flan
Google Final Fantasy Flan for an idea of what flans look like
Drops: Scorched Stuff or occasionally a mese crystal or other item
Special: leaves flowing lava behind it
Flowing so that it clears up.

Thanks, I'll work on that tomorrow. Going to bed for now ;)

Btw what program do you make your models in?

I use blender.

[windmere33]

Amazing! Keep up the good work :D

[Evergreen]

I really need to learn more blender. Oh well, really cool mod though. :D

[kaeza]

/me likes :)

[Zeg9]

I may not be able to work on more mobs for today (lots of work), I'll try though.
EDIT: lava flan coming soon, just need to fix a uv problem...

Uploaded lava flan. Screenshots will come when ompload works again.

[Zeg9]

Yesterday I tried to connect to your server and it didn't work.
Maybe it's because of this mobs.

No, just that I can't start it often those days. after tuesday, maybe...

[Inocudom]

I like these mobs. Maybe one day you could make a version of this mod that works with animals_modpack.

[Zeg9]

Should I add spiders (small ones, unlike minecraft, and a bit bigger ones in jungles) ?

Yes, you could add small spiders that are harmless and just run around. If you want to make bigger ones, dungeons and jungles would be good for those. Of course, the small spiders would not be complete without spider webs. The webs themselves could be used in crafting and be created by the spiders.

Now I need to find how to make reasonable spider webs (not one metter large...)
EDIT: added spiders. They spawn on wood and they are useless at the moment.

[Sokomine]

Would it be ok for you if there's a mobf version of your spider as well?
[Edit]
The spiders might lurke in caves and drop down in front of the player when the player approaches.

If needed I can release the spider model and texture under WTFPL, but I'm too lazy to learn how to use mobf.

I think this is only doable with mobf :P

[Sokomine]

The liscence ought to be no problem since you specified "CC BY-SA 3.0 for media". No need to make it WTFPL.

I'll try to catch sapier on irc to see what can be done about dropping spiders. The wolf already guards the point under the tree where he spawns - spiders could lurk likewise in caves or under leaves. Attack is of course a bit questionable...most spiders only cause harm by the surprise/shock when one unexpectedly sees one.

CC BY-SA 3.0 is probably my favorite license.

[SilverWolfLily22]

I will download when there are more mobs. Can you add zombies? Also how much is the health of the monsters you should edit the post. Cool mod Zeg :))

[Zeg9]

I thought about what could be done out of lava orbs, and I found out: a lava temple !
Basically, there would be one (yes, only one) on the map, and you could find it by crafting a "lava compass" (better name anyone?).
I also need ideas about what could be found there.

Nothing has been done yet, these are just a few ideas

[Nore]

You could make the lava orbs go towards a bit towards the temple, when they are dropped...
OR
Give lava orbs (or something else, quite expensive) to a Lava flan, and he will lead you to the lava temple

[Chinchow]

Lava orbs could be crafted into a lava dagger which would either twist the blade in the direction of the temple or could glow brighter when in the direction of the temple these are both possible.

LLava Flans could obviously spawn in the temple and perhaps Burned corpses or lava wisps.

A super lava flan around the height of ten blocks could also spawn here and drop either a lava trophy signifying your victory or an awesome lava blade that burns your mobs or a lava flask that can place infinite amounts of lava for obsidian a nice reward for the battle.

AAn idea for a new mob could be fish or giant crabs

[Zeg9]

Added lava temple which you can find using a lava dagger, see first post.

Good idea, when I have time (wait at least 2 weeks, I'll have exams soon), I'll make dragons.
Google translate:
Boa idéia, quando eu tiver tempo (esperar pelo menos duas semanas, eu vou ter exames em breve), eu vou fazê-lo.

[Zeg9]

ompldr doesn't let me see the screenshots

I'll do others when I have time...
Or maybe do some for me ;-)

[onpon4]

ompldr has been down for a long time. There are some mods that can't be downloaded at all because that's the only place they were uploaded.

I do hope it comes back at some point, but it's not looking optimistic. :(

Ompldr was really great.
Since it is closed now, I will use imgur for screenshots (and other images), and sfan5's uploader for files.
The main problem is that we can't get our files back :/

[tinoesroho]

... I should write a script that crawls forums and automatically downloads files- that way I can reupload stuff that is now lost.

[oxenfreedan]

Can't wait!
