CUTE CUBIC MOBS


Hello everyone,
here is another animal mod! (^ω^)
This mod adds following animals:

• chicken
• cow
• nyancat
• pig
• rabbit
• sheep

This mod adds following items:

• animal cage
• egg
• feather
• milk
• raw meat
• cooked meat
• some craftable animal blocks

You can catch animals with an animal cage. (right click).
In a cage you can transport them, release them with right click or use them to craft animal blocks.
You can craft animal blocks by placing 4 animals of the same type in the crafting grid.
This mod uses PilzAdam's simple mob api. nc_block was already included in default.
Enjoy it!

Depends:

• default
• bucket
• wool

(all 3 are included in minetest_game)

I'm no longer working on this mod, but the source code can be found here:

Seems they're indeed...cubic. Something for people looking for cubic mobs :-)

I really like this idea!

Instead of trying to be just like Minecraft, this takes a unique and appealing approach.

It's very difficult (and complex) to get all the moving parts of animated critters to work well and look good. This is a very workable solution to the problem while creating fun, quirky, and unique results. Block textures are much easier to create and that would help encourage more texture pack support.

Good work!

Looks cool RHR! I think that the idea is an amazing one.

Thanks! I keep working and improving this mod, hopefully it will become more useful in future.

interesting :-)
I wonder if this could be used for performance tests. Do these put less load on a server than mobs or mobf?

Where can I get the plugins that it depends on?

Defualt, bucket and wool are pre-installed in minetest_game.

Excellent approach to mobs.

They are too quiet.

The crafting recipe for the cage is incorrect.

It must be “group:stick”, not “groups:stick”.

thx, I fixed it. ^.^

Wow! I've been wanting this in Minecraft. This is very cool, keep up the development!
I want to see the fashion branch with hostile mobs.
That is 2 mod: passive and hostile. Everyone will use the one that will love. Or both:-P

The download link is broken because RHR moved the repository.

This is the new repository webpage:

Thx Wuzzy! I completly forgot to change that after moving the repository.
