I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.
Whether the temperature is high or low, regardless of cold winds blow,
away we go like Edgar Allan Poe, on now with the show. BTW rhymes are welcome.
Long time has passed, the game has moved on and i barely found the time to notice it... time to repair. By now, the first release of this year will be just an adaptation to the features of 0.4.15, which merged into upstream a lot of nice things and mods, while also upgrading everything else to the l...
Very well done developers! I hope to come back maintaining my little content soon, even if such a good work on default could make my subgame obsolete some day :D
I'm glad you like it! I don't know how to help with the axes unfortunately because I did not touch their properties and "choppy" stats, just removed the "breakable_by_hand" ability from trees.

That's interesting, i always supposed that my poorly supported (also on Win7) AMD's proprietary drivers were the issue, while everything runs amazingly smooth in full HD with mesa drivers.
Minesim By Echoes Minesim is a subgame that mainly consist into a slightly tweaked Minetest game plus an addition if slightly tweaked mods. It has a relaxed, realistic oriented approach but there's no aim for hardcore simulation or any other big changes to the standard gameplay. The best way to des...
Wearing just an iron armor (3d armor) will prevent any monster hurting you, armor above that is for sure that monster will keep hitting you without you taking any damage, so eventually you walk in the world full of monsters what can't heart you. Is there any way how to make the mobs a bit more stro...
Sorry for copying your mod dude, I hadn't seen this before... I'll put a link in my mod so ppl can come see this one Also, would you like to combine our mods? https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=14044 If you had not seen this one you can't have copied it, so your work is totally your...
And torches do look really retarded. Torches MOD could be simply merged. Also some mobs would be good. Many mods and frameworks exist, Mobs Redo is a great example. We definitely need a better mapgen with acceptable SEAS, LAKES and RIVERS. God, it's annoying to see any sort of water bodies nowadays...
Updated to 1.0 Since I've not been able to animate spear's flight any better through using API, this first stable version won't bring any drastic change. However, apart of knowing that everything works good, this release brings a small buff to spears' speed and, consequently, damage at range, two n...
Hi, i am testing this mode with basic arrows on my PvP server (SaKeL Test) but it seems to not doing any damage to the players. Is there any setting for this ? Thanks. As stated at the introduction, this mod is NOT tested for PvP but only balanced against Mobs Redo's creatures, i had no idea about ...
Throwing enhanced is now in maintenance status. No more new features will be directly added here, but its components will be gradually separated and developed further. The original mod will eventually be turned into a modpack once everything will be working good as standalone mods. Spears have been ...
My earlier post wasn't for your advice on our updates cycle, but was on the 32px textures we made/use and we want to share with you. ;) Of course, but I felt quite guilty for having published such an unpolished snapshot so I'm hoping for any of its tracks to disappear as soon as possible... I belie...
I made some 32px textures for this awhile back if you want to use them spears_textures_32px.zip https://forum.minetest.net/download/file.php?mode=view&id=3930&sid=106dcf23e6d1745fc0303a862c1d1baa spearz32.png Nice! I prefer to keep it as coherent as possible with default game, using 16x16 t...
Why did I not see this mod earlier?! The throw function works fine but I would like to throw them using the LMB, like with snowballs and shuriken. Because it appeared few days ago :) they were introduced within my older mod but it was turning into a big mess. Assigning a function to the LMB would r...
Spears By Echoes This mod adds spears to Minetest games. They are versatile weapons that can be used to attack like a normal sword, even if slower, or safely thrown to the bad ones from the distance. These are the spears I introduced within throwing enhanced , now with improved code, and here is wh...
Since I'm not really satisfied of how it looks overall, mainly the bow reload process and crossbow wielding due to API limitations, I'll stop adding features directly to this mod by now. I'll still try to maintain it through new Minetest releases if some adaptation is needed but in the meantime I'm ...
Is this mod stable? I used PilzAdam's throwing mod and whenever I tried to shoot the arrow the game would crash (4.12/4.13). Does this mod have the same problem? It works nicely, at least for me :) Of course you better try yourself to be sure! PilzAdam's throwing looked quite abandoned when I forke...
Since default_fence.png seems to not exist anymore or have been replaced (I don't know how it was before 0.4.12), I suggest this addition to follow the new default's fences definition: local fence_texture = "default_fence_overlay.png^default_wood.png^default_fence_overlay.png^[makealpha:255,126...
I have had no problems with striking mobs; I also havent seen any arrows sitting in the air after striking a mob, Unlike the original crossbow, I have the life span of arrows pretty short once they land some where. just make sure the mobs mod you are using is in the list (basic_bow_entities line 21...
Updated to 1.4.1 Spears now retain wearing and have no more a random chance to break. This would be nice for arrows too but it's unlikely due to them being (obviously) stackable. Many textures have been improved and torch arrows now emit light while flying too (like fireworks). Could you incorperat...
If you're interested, my throwing enhanced mod which was forked from this one has now more complex reload and damage systems (with different reload times and stiffness), improved textures and contents (crossbows, spears and many different arrows) and it's still being developed. If you like sticking ...
