[Mod] Player Classes [0.1.3] [classes]

[stu]

Suggestion, if you're still working on this. Make the smallest one, one block tall, so that way you can fit through one block tall holes. You can then make little "Hobbit Holes" to live in.

What about making a particular class take less damage when attacked? That would be almost as good as having more HP.

These are both good ideas I would like try out, thanks. Also, as of minetest 0.4.7, I can now set the player physics for different classes as someone else has suggested.

I have negelected this in favor of others recently so it's probably time I should start adding some actual features.
Note that the armor models included will no longer work with the current 3d_armor version 0.3.x (these will be updated)

In my opinion, what is most lacking in minetest is a scoring system!
If I had to it would be really a favorite game of many players

This could be used to maybe make a TF2-like game/mod (for the nine classes). And maybe add special and unique abilities.

Very nice!

Love it.

Mod updated, please see first post for details.

Great!

I hope you'll find an easy way to differentiate the tools, crafting/digging/building abilities/results. I was thinking about ways how to do that, but saw a lot of work/difficulties (and for me lacking programming skills). Is it possible to create race specific mods that influence/change existing mods without knowing those mods, is it 'easier' to put if/then code in existing mods or do you already have a plan how to handle this modpack?

I read that money/trade/economy mods are now limited by the fact that most players (including me) just dig their own resources. I think this mod could give those mods a real boost on servers.

P.s. Just thought about another race: merfolk (drowning on land, not in water) :-)

What about Orc as a new race bigger than a man and as wide as a dwarf

Hello Stu, I'm trying player classes because they are convinced of the goodness of your project.
First I will report a bug that I have experienced but do not know how to reproduce:

in practice the model of the player is not loaded correctly, it seems to me that this happens only with the model "human."

The flaws I found are finished, now a 'idea:
Do you think that increasing the size of the model elf, for example up to not allow him to go to a gallery height of 1.5 blocks (created with tiling the floor with slabs);
Or enlarge the model "dwarf" to prevent him from passing in a tunnel width 1 block.

This would make radically different with your races but maybe it's overkill.
Think about it, however great job.

Speciality tools are the next thing on my agenda for this mod, only I'n not quite sure how to go about this yet. As for race specific mods, my aim is to make this mod as flexible as possible for those creating custom games & servers. I am always open to suggestions and have done my best to include those. Interesting idea with the underwater race, I like it.

Perhaps in a future version, I really need more ways to differentiate classes before I go adding more.

I have so far been unable to reproduce this myself and doubt that it could be a problem with the mod as such, there is really very little that could go wrong. Perhaps a conflict or a bug in your client? If yo do find a way to reproduce this then do please let me know.

I have just made some minor updates to the models and code. These may even fix this if by any chance it's related to the human model.

How do you see your player? please tell me!

[elvin12]

Might I suggest mage? :) I just think mages would be cool. He might have say... a staff, cloak, shield block, and scythe.

Also thief might be good ... a invisibility cloak, a dagger, magic charm of escape ( let's you get out of jail ), and throwing knives.

I'm very young and I just got registered but, just comment back.

JUST LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

A shield block would create a dome around an area. 4 types: novice shield: creates small dome, moderate shield: creates medium dome, expert shield: creates large dome, master shield: creates gigantic dome.

I like the mod idea. Maybe combine it with minetest skin mod so you can make/have a list with possible skins per class?

[keyxmakerx]

Yes, this mod seems pretty cool. I prefer hosting a RPG server, and I've used this in the past, although I don't seem to see anything changing now? Seems to be working though. Skins would be a nice improvement.
