[Mod] Not So Simple Mobs [3.0] [nssm]

[npx]

We had not thought about it! But we will do it as soon as possible, we are really busy in this period because of university exams...

[blert2112]

As soon as I spawned in the game I was mugged by a duck and a group of booms. Seriously, didn't even have time to grant myself privs to escape. Peck,peck.... BOOOM! Not enough left of me to feed to the crabs.

If it is ok with you... I would like to comb through your mobs for possible additions to my mobs-redo collections. Many of these would make excellent bosses.

hrr Sandworms... its time for a Dune Game :D ahh too many wip projects... need spice...

I converted the SandWorm over to mobs-redo ages ago... it drops spice. Powerful stuff. :)

The beginning is always dramatic! We know that the first thing to do is hiding in a dark cave, leaving the shelter only for few seconds to gather wood and apples...

Take all the mobs that you like! We are really honored!


We have update the mod to 2.2... take a look at the first post!

Hey. I have project LGPLv3 +, I can use the Textures or models, in full compliance with CC BY-SA? Which version of the CC BY-SA? 3.0 or 4.0

[npx]

Of curse! You can use models and textures without any problem, just remember to say where did you get them!

Thank you. And pls, write license version!

Fantastic mod!

Please put this up on Github, much easier to follow, update, and post issues!

How, well does this work with Tenplus1's Ethereal mod? Doesn't seem to spawn all the creatures as far as I can see.

Kind regards

(coz, model from "animal modpack" are really ugly ;) )

Thank you for appreciation!
We will soon put the mod on Github...
Unfortunately the mobs spawn only on default blocks, their spawning works fine on mapgen v6 without any biome mod. It is a limitation of the mod...

We will think about it! Thank you for the suggestion!
But I am not good at making mammals models...

[foxz]

npx: sheep from carbon_ng mod is good....
but cow, is really really ugly...

other suggestion : breeding and mountable mobs... (horse, seehorse)

There is no need, it works really great together with Tenplus1's mobs mod.

Since I posted my question I did a lot of testing and it actually works pretty well with Tenplus1's Ethereal mod since this still has a lot of default blocks in it.

I am looking forward to you putting it on Github it will be so much easier to contribute ;)

I am not sure if it has anything to do with it but darts.lua has been disabled. Then suddenly the server crashes without anyone killing a Phonix.

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Doing a grep gives me:

Disregard this post "burg report 2", it was on a client. Sorry.

I don't understand, have you disabled darts.lua? It contains the definitions of the projectiles used by the mobs that shoot...

[npx]

npx: sheep from carbon_ng mod is good....
but cow, is really really ugly...

other suggestion : breeding and mountable mobs... (horse, seehorse)

I will consider the possibility of making new cow model!
Thank you for the suggestion, rideable mobs are a very good idea that would improve a lot nssm, we had thought about it but we never did it...

[greencopper]

Yes, I had it disabled.

I have done some extensive testing on "nssm" with both Vanessa's biomes_lib mod, Valeyes Mapgen mod, and mg mod, all v6 mapgen mods. And I have tested "nssm" on Tenplus1's Ethereal v7 mapgen mod.

"nssm" works really well, actually best IMHO, with the v7 Ethereal mod. All items spawn at their different locations and there is much less CPU usage with Ethereal than any of the other mapgens.

I think that the strenght of Nssm is the fact that in each default biome there are differents mobs! Ethereal grants new amazing biomes in which no mobs can be found because of the registered spawn...
With our settings many Ethereal biomes are populated only by Flying Ducks...
I don't understand, almost all the mobs of the surface spawn on default:dirt_with_grass, in Ethereal it is replaced with many others kind of grassy dirt...
Have you changed the spawn settings? In this case it would be great!

No I haven't really changed anything except from disabling a couple of biomes from Ethereal.

Mod updated and uploaded to Github:

[Nathan.S]

Yay, thanks for putting on Github, makes keeping it up to day so much easier.

[greencopper]

Fantastic work, thank you very much!

We have uploaded a new mod in WIP to expand nssm, you can find it here:

[tulenitata]

I would be glad if the server has been created with this mod
Thanks

[npx]

The server? What do you mean?

[Nathan.S]

I think he means a server so people could play online, I can't imagine that being very practical though, as you would have a long wait the first time you connected as you waited for the NSSM mod to load.

[npx]

I've found a server in the server list which has nssm among the mods! SurvivalWorld by Telesight... Tulenitata, are you speaking about it? The loading time is very long but I think it's worth it... The server is very cool!

I did not know about him
