The MafiaScum Minecraft Thread - AllTheMods 9!!! - NEW Vanilla?

[Maestro]

etl is a yay, and Blake has seemed to indicate he wanted it on irc?

Where did ETL say this?

Just clarified with Blake; he doesn't care.

[Klazam]

etl said she wanted creepers removed- so I'm guessing that is in support of this mod. I could be wrong tho

[Maestro]

lol... I'm surprised you even looked at that. It was a joke! Although... I'd probably put this in my own SSP... cuz you know... wimp.

[Rhinox]

I don't really think this mod nerfs creepers nearly as much as has been suggested. By that I mean pro's and con's are being heavily exaggerated into hyperbole. I see it as kinda a pointless mod TBH, offering no real benefit or downside. For that I guess I am against adding pointless things that only serve to bloat the modpack.

[Klazam]

etl- can you come in here and give a clear opnion?

[Maestro]

Nay: Klaz, izak, M, Rhino

Yay: Maru, Oso

No Opinion/Unclear: ETL, Blake

[EspeciallyTheLies]

etl when are you coming back on:(

June 27th. Upgrading the computer to 6 GB RAM. Until then, I'll probably be on Vanilla (I fixed the issue I was having).

etl is a yay,

and Blake has seemed to indicate he wanted it on irc?

edit: my mistake

etl- can you come in here and give a clear opnion?

I have no idea what we're talking about. Some mod that does what now?

[JacobSavage]

It stops creppers destryoing blocks.

I'm in favour.

1. I assume i won''t affect Nether Creppers meaning that it will only affect people building in the overworld.
2. They can still kill you and if you can't get back in time.

Actually, I like this point more than any other. The whole point of designing our own pack was to focus on the content-filled, fun-to-use Mods that we all liked, whether from experience in Mindcrack/DW20 or from personal experience. (Tinker's got added this way, and I don't know a single person on server

WITHOUT

a Tinker's tool or weapon except

MAYBE

Clammy or Rhino. I'm sure they have plans for getting one or more in the near future...)

The whole point of making our own pack rather than switching to (say) Ultimate, or just staying with DW20 and eliminating the problem Mods (Mystcraft, Thaumcraft, etc.) was that we DIDN'T want little things like this making their way in just because they were already in the pack or everybody had no opinion on them.

P-Edit:

ACTUALLY

, just so everyone knows, I'm almost positive this Mod theoretically nerfs

ALL

explosions that occur, allowing for Vanilla TNT, Nitro Creepers, and even Withers to now be used as excessively profitable mining tools - and yes, even in the Nether. It doesn't and can't modify

JUST

what the Creeper does, since the Creeper's effects are 100% based off the generated javascript for how the game handles explosions. All this Mod does is change the way the game handles explosions and tells it that something can still explode, it will just drop all the blocks effected by said explosion, instead of destroying them.

[Klazam]

oh my lord. that's incredibly worse.

[Maestro]

Creeper Collateral exposes the rate at which explosions drop block items in a config file. Vanilla minecraft is 0.3. This mod sets the default to 1.0 so no block is ever completely destroyed by a Creeper.

...but yes, I'm right, because he's has no way of preventing this config change from effecting

EVERY SINGLE EXPLOSION IN THE GAME

- it's not just Creepers, folks.

Hey I take objection to that! I've been busting iron chisels left and right making brownstone road.

[Maestro]

I said maybe! I'm not in the habit of /invseeing every person who logs into the server. <3

[Maestro]

iron chisels

We can get you a nice Manyullyn one if you like.

I withdraw my Yes vote on the Creeper Mod. I was under the impression this was just for Creepers only. Not a game wide changing of all asplosions.

UNVOTE:

VOTE:NO to Creeper modification

[EspeciallyTheLies]

Oh. Okay. I'm a Yay then. I hate having to go round collecting dirt to fill creeper holes.

P-edit: I'm surprised M. You seem the paranoid type who needs to know/control everything.

[EspeciallyTheLies]

Since i couldnt care less about tnt... since i never make it.

[Rhinox]

Nay: Klaz, izak, M, Rhino

Yay: Maru, Oso, JSav

No Opinion/Unclear: ETL, Blake

Just curious, who first discovered and proposed this mod? Just seems strange that the mod team would bring to the table for discussion and vote that all 3 of you whole heartidly oppose.

I said maybe! I'm not in the habit of /invseeing every person who logs into the server. <3

Lol i didn't even know /invsee was a thing.

I would probably use tinkers more except I don't want to waste resources making sub-optimal tools and I haven't found a good guide yet

[Maestro]

Maru pushed it to us for consideration.

Nay: Klaz, izak, M, Rhino, Oso
Yay: Maru, Jacob, ETL
UHWUT: Blake

[Maestro]

I'm surprised M. You seem the paranoid type who needs to know/control everything.

WELL THIS MAKES ME FEEL REALLY GOOD ABOUT THE IMAGE I PROPAGATE AROUND HERE

[EspeciallyTheLies]

We are your guide!

P-edit: joke! <3

[Maestro]

Nay: Klaz, izak, M, Rhino, Oso
Yay: Maru, Jacob, ETL, Blake

This just in, Blake says yay to advantageously changing the mechanics of Vanilla Minecraft for player benefit. :3

Nowut do? We could cut the vote right here and say the nay's have it...I'm not sure what else to do either way. *shrug*

[Maestro]

Ohey, davroe's online. Let's let him come weigh in...

[Maestro]

WAIT FOR IT
