Got a solution for that yet? :D

Wait, did you just say that your game has a problem with too many nodes? XD

pr sent, hope this helps

I know this is an old topic, but this can be fixed (though it is tricky work) by editing the mesh and armature in EDIT mode of blender the process is something like this: 1. You will want to WRITE DOWN how the mesh and armature has been scaled in OBJECT MODE. 2. Shift C to set the cursor at 0,0,0 an...

was it something I said?

now if only there was a way to attach the bone of one mob to a bone of another mob...

There are quite a lot of mob APIs though, it would be nice if they could be merged into one.

Thanks :D The horse model is getting a rework, though.

That looks really good! Also here is the implementation of mob_limit, there can be no more than x amount of mobs in the world at once. The default is 20. https://github.com/jordan4ibanez/open_ai/commit/7e905ef8e951a1622be074ce10171c01dc4f4b3f A short video of it in action https://www.youtube.com/wa...

I made some mobs for minetest, originally aligning to Y because mirroring and animation in blender seem to favor this. However, minetest spec says align to X. I tried modeling and animating aligned to X and it was a bit more painful. What I'd like to know: Should I just model and animate aligned to ...

I love it!

Here's what I'm working on now...

You can use the models I make for sure! They are licensed CC-BY-SA 3.0

these look really cool. Theres a kind of post apocalyptic vibe when seeing structures like this through the overgrowth. Like some advanced bronze age civilization had vanished from here.

I love the unique buildings gen and aesthetic. First time playing I placed a wood block (received from tutorial quest) on the ground be accident and was then unable to make the workbench. Maybe giving the player a weak axe would work better?

New fish mob and fishing update: https://youtu.be/bw5tpo_qMik

LOL! I just finished a fish model last night! Oh well, it's in the PR if you like.

Looking at your file I see that your start frame is not zero, which I think will keep the idle animation from exporting, looks like just the walking animation should be exported with the file you shared. I set the export to only selected (as DS-minetest suggested) and included all frames (including...

I'm attempting to create a new sheep. However, it seems that the animation is not exporting properly :P I'm using Blender 2.76 and the plugin appears to work with other models, but I dont know what could be causing the issue. It's been a while since I build anything for minetest so I'm a bit rusty. ...

I have watched your videos on follower pathing and it looks very nice so far, I must say! I don't think there is anything wrong with making another mobs AI. I was about to make some comment like that ("Why yet another mob AI, why not work on an existing?), but then I thought, AI is super comple...

A great book choice to demo! In case you might not know, this book was the basis for the movie John Carter, which is terribly underrated and I personally recommend it as well. You may also not know that I caught myself trying to click on the page advance button in Duane's screenshot because I like t...

Very cool! I like the new sheep texture, SaKel!

Awesome to see dungeons getting much needed love!

A welcome addition! Bring on the entropy!

Calinou, it is essential that you kept Carbone NG up-to-date with minetest-game. That way, you won't have to keep releasing new versions. Where did all of those wonderful sound effects that the previous version had go? They were very essential to the general ambience. Yeah, put down the books and k...

Nice!

I would like for it to be easy to use goblins standalone or with redo, so I don't plan to drop support for redo, though it may take a little while to get them synced.

I've adjusted digging to occur more often and removed digging from goblins other than digger. Also reduced debug messages to just nodes being replaced.

Duane, I merged your pull request for standalone, though something in me thinks this digging code is more for the likes of dwarves than goblins...

Added duane's traps (with some further modifications ;-) to standalone and redo goblins. Tinkering with traps may be painful.

Edit: i really should learn git better, merging in parts of duane's fork rather than copy-paste :p

Duane, those are some wicked traps!

TenPlus1: I guess what I'd like is for the goblins to work standalone or with the mobs redo if its installed. Maybe I can have the init check for the api.lua in the goblins folder and, if its been deleted by the user, to use mobs redo api.lua instead? I really like your API and what you've done with...

FreeLikeGNU: Glad it's working ok... My only concern was that Mobs Redo has it's own api which is updated quite a bit and the one included in your Goblins mod may end up running an older version with your code included, which is why I recommended using the main API instead and putting your goblin s...

FreeLikeGNU: check out Blockmen's Pyramids mod, it has a function that can fill a chest with treasure that you may be able to adapt for Goblins... also... is the mobs redo version working for you now ? TenPlus1, it's working quite well now! I'm thinking about a way to check if redo is active, and i...
