TConfig [Released][WIP] GooSe Modpack

GooSe Modpack

Current version : 1.1

tConfig Compile version : 0.29.9

Last update: 07/05/2013

DESCRIPTION
When playing it's pretty easy to skip several tiers. Like going from copper>gold without bothering for iron and silver.
In this mod it's not so easy! All armors have been balanced in defence and crafting materials.

Then there are the magic swords. The standard metal swords can be updated with a special magic crystal which can upgraded again. Each element has its own attribute! Crystals are drops of the elemental npc's.

I used a few things from other mods, all credit goes to them. Even tough I don't know from which mods they were.. If you know which mod it is, let me know!

Alchemistry mod - for the steel armor

*ps. I'm new to threadmaking so all advice is welcome! (How do you make a drop-out screen?)

I've browsed some of your sprites , and found the UFO related things , and the fire elemental npc to be based on sprites from Omnir's Nostalgia pack , might want to add that to the credits
Other then that , some of the sprites here are original and awesome , the 'socketing' system itself looks nice as well =o
You might want to explain what's included in the pack more , so people will know what you have and what you don't.

Also , regarding to adding images , I'd suggest making a single big image with everything you want to show , if the intention is to show them like you are doing right now (all together)

How about some more pictures, credits, item lists, NPC list, credits and so on. Btw your modpack look really nice

Okay now it's a bit more viewable. Thanks for the comments!

I downloaded this mod before I went to bed and just now got around to checking it out.

Let me start by telling you what I liked about it. I liked the elemental weapons and some of the enemies. The haunted graves in particular I think are a cool idea. I'm not sure how much of this sprite work is yours and how much is borrowed, but it all looks very nice.

EDIT: Explosive enemies suck. I said some stuff about them here that I was wrong about. See my other post down below Yoraiz0r's. Short version: I really, really, really hate enemies that blow up my stuff. I even hate the clown from the vanilla game, but at least it's super rare and only appears under specific conditions. This mod makes explosive enemies more common and I hate that.

-usually such posts arrive with a constructive compromise suggestion after the explanation of complaint-
I personally don't play with mods that include explosive enemies as well , I think a proper solution is to either make their explosion avoidable (such as killing them prior to them being able to explode) or making their explosions harmless to the environment.

Yes, I know I'm mean.

Well, after looking over the code again, it seems that the bang and boom slimes only drop their "payload" when they die. This is reminiscent of the pre-1.0.6 lava slimes, back when they would drop lava upon death. This is... well, it's a little better than what I thought, but I still don't like it. It also seems to be only one of several new griefing methods. Unless I'm misinterpreting the code, it seems that the worms will also be able to blow holes in your walls, and with pinpoint accuracy.

Basically, I like the elemental weapons idea, but I hate the explosive enemies. I would suggest making them separate mods, so the people who want the magic weapons but don't like griefer enemies can get just the magic weapons, while the people who think explosive enemies are cool can get that if they want it.

So does that mean you hate my Boom Slime? . Although... You can avoid it exploding by simply NOT killing it .

Yes, I do! Your boom slime is bad and you should feel bad!

...that was a joke. Honestly, you did a good job on it and it's a neat idea. There's a place for it, I just don't like the idea of exploding enemies and I refuse to use it myself.

Actually, that brings up a good point. To the OP: you should really give credit to the guy who made the Bang Slime and the Boom Slime, since you're using them in your mod. In fact, I don't know exactly how much of this is your work, but I see a lot of things in this mod that are from other people...

Some content for the update.
A dragonfly (jungle) and crow (corruption) NPC.
A scarecrow, a infinite sandtilel-creator and a sandtile-destroyer.
