Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17
The Magnetization Ring will no longer pull any items that can store mana.

Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17
I want to add a "Black Lotus" item that you can toss into a pool and it makes mana. It generates in chests around the world.

Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17
Considering adding a botania villager with house now, so I can make it spawn there.

Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17
The Black Lotus idea seems popular. Somebody make a sprite for it as I'm incapable of art. 16x16, item.

Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17
Prism.



Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17
This prism thing is looking neat.




Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17
If a burst hits a property lens (the 4 basic ones + the gravity one) it increases how long it can stay before losing mana. Infinite bursts!

Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17
So yes, you can have a tiny planet loop a burst over and over through prisms without needing to shoot more bursts.

Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17


Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17
Pretty simple setup, rainbow efficiency lens on a prism with a tiny planet block.



Liz @Vazkii · Jan 17
This would make for a pretty cool block, I won't lie. Might add it next release actually. https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/2sqwu6/i_made_a_road_simple_yet_so_much_nicer_than/…

Liz @Vazkii · 8h 8 hours ago
Anybody interested in "challenge" achievements rather than progression based? Stuff like "kill a gaia guardian without armor", etc.

Liz @Vazkii · 7h 7 hours ago
By request.



Liz @Vazkii · 7h 7 hours ago
One day I'll figure out how to properly kill a stencil, for now it's a known shippable ._.



Liz @Vazkii · 6h 6 hours ago
The Brewery and Enchanter now have the progress pie the Runic Altar has. Working on a bunch of stuff for this update :D

Liz @Vazkii · 4h 4 hours ago
There's a "Void Lotus" item in the latest botania version. It'll be used later when I get to adding the hardmode gaia guardian.

Liz @Vazkii · 4h 4 hours ago
Build 152, new stuffs. http://vazkii.us/mod/Botania/changelog.php#r1-3-152…

R1.3 152
  • Added the Black Lotus, a dungeon loot consumable that can be tossed onto a Mana Pool for a boost of mana.
  • Added the Mana Prism, a new block that can change the properties of a Mana Burst on the fly.
  • Red String Spoofers will now also connect to mushrooms.
  • Shifted the Assembly Halo HUD down 10px so it fits on smaller resolution/render scales.
  • The Brewery and Enchanter now have the same progress pie as the Runic Altar.
  • The Magnet Ring will no longer pull items that can contain mana, items that are on a terrasteel plate or AE2 crystal seeds.
  • (Technical) IManaTrigger blocks with IManaCollisionGhost tile entities will still have their effect triggered. Furthermore IManaTrigger triggers for fake bursts too so that should be checked against.
  • [API] Added IManaDissolvable and IDyablePool.
  • [API] Increased version number to 29.

This may not seem like anything significant, but trust me, it is.


[I say to you. RUN! For the love of the backwards DOG RUN!! Why are you still reading this I said RUN!!!]
[Also these things.]

Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone · 11h 11 hours ago
So many textures. I do not like making textures. :D

Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone · 9h 9 hours ago
Most impressive textures ever. A++ would retexture again.

I ... do not understand what this news item is about :\

Mojang is adding new things.
Something that requires a lot of textures.
And have added a system that allows for multiple boss bars and a timer indication.
One of the issues with mods adding multiple bosses is that there hp bars twitch back and forth depending on where you are looking. This will allow you to fight multiple bosses at once. And encourage mod and map makers to make that happen.

My dream just came true! A End game boss fight with lots of bosses is coming soon to ALL of my mods!

I finally got around to updating Endermanage to 1.7.10. That's the mod I wrote originally for Eyamaz to do terrible things to you with, but there ended up being some conflict with another mod at the time and he couldn't use it. Due to Forge hooks added in 1.7, that shouldn't be a problem anymore.

If you thought Endermen were bad before, wait until they pick up your furnaces and chests.

Just released a new version of RFTools (2.15). The two major things are the biome controllers and some auto-crafter fixes:


2.15:
  • Added a new biome controller feature. With biome controllers you can control what type of biomes are going to be selected for your world. There are biome controllers like 'cold', 'magic', 'forest', 'wet', and so on. These take no biome dimlets as modifier (in fact the biome dimlets that you give will be ignored). A few biome controllers like 'checkerboard', 'single', and 'filtered' take biomes as parameters. If you supply too few biomes then random biomes will be generated. If you supply too many then these will simply be ignored.
  • Slight improvement of the dimensional shard texture.
  • Reduced contrast in all the bottom-right textures of all dimlets so that it is easier to read the amount of the stack (i.e. in AE for example, it was hard to see how many dimlets were in a stack).
  • Fixed the crafter so that it now also correctly outputs secondary items (like buckets) in case a crafting recipe has more outputs.
  • Fixed a bug with the crafter where a crafting result would be placed in the output buffer even if there was not enough room for all of the result (but there was room for part of the result). Some of the crafting output would be lost in that case.

and an announcement from @iChun for It Fell From The Sky
iChun said:
Hey guys,

Just wanna let you know that my 4th ModJam mod, It Fell From The Sky (IFFTS) will no longer be updated to the latest Minecraft version.

Reasons for this are mainly because IFFTS was mainly an experiment for Morph’s planned meteorite strike. This doesn’t mean that it’ll be coming any sooner, it’s just to say that I won’t be updating it to MC 1.8 and later.

For those of you who will miss the Compressed Porkchop block introduced in IFFTS, I will be moving it to iChunUtil in 1.8, configurable (enabled by default). The source code for the mod can be found here. Other than that, it’s time to say goodbye to Pigzilla.

Why discontinue the mod? If you guys didn’t know, I have a lot of mods and many more in planning/unannounced. While it’s fun to make mods, maintenance for them can take a lot of time, which can be very hard to come by sometimes. The less mods I have to maintain, the more time I can spend on adding to/improving existing mods. I’m sure you guys miss PortalGun and Gravity Gun, I miss having time to work on them too. That, and I’ve got at least 1 unannounced mod planned for the time being, so look forward to that in the future as well.

So long Pigzilla, many thanks for all the laughs and for what you’ve taught me.

Cheers,
iChun.

quite some time xD
I've recently changed the way how I look for updates by looking at the curseforge recently updated page for most mods instead of individual curseforge pages, but that results in quite a few updates each day
still have to get used to doing it like that, so future updates probably won't be as long as this one

Does your family know you quit your job so you could find and post minecraft modding updates?
