Minecraft Megathread; yeah its update 1.12 big whoop what about it

[Regulith]

Are there any mods similar that to something like Battlegear or something? Because of my bad internet I just want to run around in singleplayer with at least a more interesting battle mechanic

Tinker's Construct + Asgard Shield adds weapons and shields, haven't seen anything that provides the other mechanics

When was the Modding API announced? 2 years ago?

Minecraft is a horrible game if you look at it from a different perspective, even if you aren't nitpicking.

Don't forget whales, red dragons, a more exciting nether, mob attack animations, capture-the-flag, fully functional villager AI, reintroduced sponges...
And the stuff they ARE adding that they promised is only after a solid year or 2.

why does minecraft have such a stuffty mod system?
the game has a minor update like every month, and it breaks all mods.
by the time all modders update their stuff its days away from another minor game update to break it all yet again.
not to mention i have to redownloaded and loving add the mods manually every single time.
there are mod managers that should be able to do all this for us, but they dont do anything but test compatibility...

it makes playing a long term game very frustrating.

If you're managing a bunch of mods manually, you're doing it wrong.

Outside of using modpacks like FTB or Tekkit, I only bother keeping one or two of my mods updated for various reasons, such as incompatibilities with other mods, simply not being available in a pack, or just wanting to play with that specific mod.

Not everyone wants to use FTB or Tekkit lol

They should. FTB or Tekkit isn't just technology-based stuff, you know. Almost always, there's a pack in both instances that will fill your interest. That is, if you're a normal person and are actually tired of vanilla gameplay.

Even then, who wouldn't want to go to the loving moon?

FTB has galactigraft?

I thought you said FTB had a mod which let you go to the moon ;~;

This is what the average biome generation looks like in 1.7

[Kingdaro]

Are those rivers separating biomes? Damn, son.

They look like they would make good nation borders.

[Regulith]

Yep, the blue lines are rivers

[HellHound]

Some of them don't even look like they even arrive at the ocean or a lake.

I'm expecting a 1.7 civilization server now. :)

[Ceist]

i'm expecting a future mob that spawns in extreme rare cases that looks just like steve only different apparel and carriers armor. I'm also expecting a future mob that and disguise itself as other mobs and attack the player.

If I had decent hosting hardware, I'd code one in Lua, haha.
