di u have some screens

[fishyWET]

di u have some screens

it is still under development so no, but some stuff are done, some screenshot will be available soon.

[fishyWET]

Screenshots are available and modpack is released with ores, sea ores and ithildin.
P.S. Do anyone know how to make a object follow you, something like a pet or is there a mod like this created before, apart from slimes mod as i don't want the animal to jump but walk beside you but also jump sometimes when they are block by something. And i also don't want that animal to spawn but can only be taken out of inventory or crafted.

[Inocudom]

There hasn't been any activity with this modpack for some time. Is it still being worked on?

[fishyWET]

Yes there is, but it is very slow as i am the only developer and i am quite busy this few months.

[fishyWET]

Update: Mobs added, additional slabs, stairs and panels added.
Sorry for the slow update, was quite busy.

[ak399g]

Is this a modpack? Or, can I enable part of it but not all of it? I'm only asking because I like the Ithildin, but other than that I don't want to add that many other textures/ores to my world.

Also, Github?

Yes, it is a modpack, you can enable part of it, and the ithildin mod itself is available here: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=5183
and no, sorry, i currently don't have Github.

[ak399g]

Thanks. I guess part two is this: I'd like it if ithildin_stone was solid by default and ithildin was unpointable and able to be walked through. At night, players could pass through ithildin_stone and ithildin would become solid and pointable. Stone walls would become doors, and invisible paths would solidify.

The other problem is, since there are 14 different versions of each node depending on level of light, digging two seemingly identical nodes can yield multiple different stacks. This is incredibly useless. It'd be better if it were simply two settings: stone on and stone off. Or, on digging any of the 14 nodes, it overrides the drop and gives the digger ithildin_0 or ithildin_stone_0 no matter what.

The third issue is that it's dependent on light, not on time. This means that if you have a group of ithildin, if a few of them turn on, they shed enough light to prevent the others from turning on. It should be dependent on time of day, not light.

I've gone ahead and done this. I've used the textures and initial register.node info from your mod, I've incorporated switching between two nodes from the solar panel of the mesecons mod, and I've taken the get.timeofday from qznc's zombies mod. I'll post it here with your permission.

Thanks, it is fine, you can post it here and i will add them in the next update

Github: https://github.com/ak399/minetest_mods/tree/master/ithildin-ak399
rename to "ithildin"
The craft recipes are a little different and now dependent on the moreores mithril, but you know how to change those.
There are three nodes: an invisible/unpointable/nonsolid-by-day, visible/pointable/solid-by-night node, a visible/solid-by-day, visible/nonsolid-by-night node, and a simple stone node. All glow at night and don't during the day. The outer ring of 8 in the craft is the same, but the middle node is " "/"default:cobble"/"default:stone" for each of the aforementioned nodes respecively. Emitted light is set at 8, but that can of course be toggled.

Thanks for the help, i appreciate it, i will be adding this to the next update and with both ithildin at night walkable as the original concept of ithildin is a gateway that can only be entered at night.

[fessmK]

this mod is really incredible!

[fishyWET]

Update: Added farming, plants, trees, new mobs, redo ores and mobs
Farming is the same as default farming, seeds can be found on wild plants.
Plants spawn randomly in grass across the world, brambles of mordor spawns in desert
Friendly mobs spawn on grass/ leaves/ stone (e.g. rohan /gondor guard, elf, ent, dwarf, hobbit) Unfriendly mobs spawn in desert (e.g. uruk-hai, orc, half-troll(sunlight kills it), battle-troll), some underground in stone (troll (sunlight kills it), dead men (not killable, is only damaged by sunlight), witch-king (boss, hp=50), balrog (boss, hp=100), nazgul (mini-boss, hp=25)), and dunlending is the only unfriendly mob to spawn in grass.
Couple of new ores and uncraftable stuff like tilkal (unbreakable material)
Introduction of trees, sapling available via creative, i do not wish to randomly spawn the trees until i can find a suitable mapgen to generate them on (need help on this), so they will only be available via creative.
Help Needed for these stuff:
[spoiler]Models (Ent, Balrog, Horse, Warg and couple more)
Mob Behavior(Attacks only particular mobs)
Rideable mobs
Map generation(With specific biomes)[/spoiler]
Note that i may take a few days to reply to a comment as i am rather busy with school-life, but feel free to tell me any bugs or suggestion.
Edit: Thanks for the encouragement fessmK, sry didn't saw that until three months later :P.
Edit 2: Forgotten to say mushrooms only grow on decaying wood and only in dark places.

Paramat can help you out with the mapgen.

For horse u can use donkey model from mobf.

The game failed when I tried to use the hoe. I got following error:

^ has nothing to do with this mod

[RHR]

This bug appears only if this mod is enabled. If I play the default game alone or with other mods everything is going well.

[ch98]

maybe rings that you can use to get special privs?

[Novacain]

Could you use something similar to the experimental mapgen mod to create villages? like an elf city, a group of hobbit holes, etc.?

[fishyWET]

XD u use my texture for troll . Good modpack. That trees are awesome but i have error with replacing air and i cant find any .

Oh yeah, thanks for reminding, was in a hurry to quickly post the topic (cause i got tests the next day), so i forgotten, added your name :) And the error for replacing air, well, i am not sure why it happens, can't seem to find the problem, help appreciated on this (should be caused by lottplants, the generation of wild plants). But so far this does not crash minetest, so just try to hide your chat to prevent the spamming messages until i or someone help me to find the error.

Paramat can help you out with the mapgen.

yup, i know abt that, not sure if he is interested so because from what i see, he does most of the mapgen because he interested enough to work it.

Models (Ent, Balrog, Horse, Warg and couple more) For horse u can use donkey model from mobf.

Thanks!

Thanks for reporting, not sure what is the reason, but when i added the hoe code into lottfarming init, it works, so i would be release the bug fixes changes soon.
Edit:
Sry didn't saw reply on 2nd page :P

maybe rings that you can use to get special privs?

Maybe? Not sure yet, the rings will probably be added in a later version, but i plan on focusing on the main stuff (e.g. weapons, mobs & mapgen) now and magical and complicated items later.

Could you use something similar to the experimental mapgen mod to create villages? like an elf city, a group of hobbit holes, etc.?

Yeah, planning to do that too but like i have said, i am somewhat clueless about mapgen even though trying my best to read through the related mods code, i still do not understand how mapgen works.

[AMMOnym]

https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=7656 u can use this mapgen
