NOTE REGARDING FUTURE DEVELOPMENT () I have decided to discontinue personal development of Ancient Warfare mod. This is due to many reasons, but mostly a lack of time. Hard to enjoy developing an MC mod if you never get to play MC or the mod being developed.
GotoLink has 40 repositories available. Follow their code on GitHub. Jun 18, 2015 I am no longer actively working on the mod. Darkevilmac is continuing with the current state of the mod with his Archimedes' Ships Plus: http://www.minecraftforum.net.
Ancient Warfare is open source. What this means is that -anyone- is free to continue development if they wish. Just because I am no longer interested in development personally does not mean that the mod needs to stop here.
FURTHER UPDATE (12-17-14): GotoLink has expressed interest in continuing development of Ancient Warfare. Things will likely be a bit turbulent for awhile as ownership/source/etc is transferred, but development should continue soon. General Information Ancient Warfare is a modification for Minecraft that adds a variety of game enhancements; new blocks, new entities, and a template based world-generation structure generator. Lionel Richie Tuskegee Full Album Download there.
Beginning with the 2.x releases Ancient Warfare has been split into a multi-module release. There is a single Core module that all other modules rely on for shared functionality. Each other module may be installed individually, or in any other combination desired. The non-core modules are – Automation, NPCs, Structure Generation, and Vehicles.
Each of these modules focuses on a single aspect of the mod. Core Module Adds core functionality and shared code needed by all other modules. Structure Module Adds template based structure generation during World Gen. Includes in-game tools for creation of new templates, as well as a few tools to aid in map creation in general. Automation Module Includes machines to automate crop farming, tree farming, misc resource farming (mushroom, reed, cactus), animal farming, mining, and resource processing (ores).
Also includes a full featured MJ and RF compatible energy transport network. NPC Module Adds Player recruitable NPC for combat and utility purposes.
Multiple varieties of combat NPC are available (melee, ranged, medic, others), as well as several varieties of non-combat/utility NPCs (worker, item courier, barterer/trader). Vehicle Module WIP - Will be included at a future date. Bug Reports / Issues Please report any bugs or issues on GitHub. The issue tracker is located at:.

Thanks for the interest; I was wondering a bit about the catapult crafting recipe. I pretty much just threw that one in there to have 'something'. It is very cheap right now, and could be made in survival mode too quickly. Nds Roms Download Free Pokemon Black And White 2. Along your lines of thought, I was thinking of adding recipes for the base, turret section, and arm/bucket, and then a final recipe to put them together. Probably include some iron or leather as well in the recipes to increase the expense.
On the to-do list is a scatter shot/flak type ammo. It will probably end up being a bundle of arrows that scatters a bit in flight.with slightly increased damage over the vanilla arrow.
I also might do a more traditional stone scatter shot, perhaps both. I'm still thinking on the code end of it. I definitely want a less destructive ammo type, something one might use in a survival game. Also.the driving speed on it is a bit high (okay, far too high) for a catapult--it will probably end up being about 1/3 of what it is for forward speed--turns will remain unchanged.
The increased speed really helps debug network code for now though. If you downloaded recently and got an error while running, please try redownloading. I had inadvertantly left an additional file in the package from another mod I was working on that might've requested an image that wasn't present--this has since been corrected. Well, the riding up walls thing was partly-intentional. I wanted it to be able to climb up mountains/hills and such (albiet slowly), but I should probably look into it having a maximum climb height. Good point there, I guess I forgot to limit it after I made it climb. The firing speed currently is limited to the inverse of your firing angle (arm swing length).
I was waiting to get some feedback on a decent delay to have as a minimum, as I feel that a catapult should have a fairly long-ish reload time (maybe 5-15 seconds for a game like this.perhaps 30 at the most) As to the flags.I suppose I didn't mention their function much. For each flag, attack the catapult once to 'bind' the flag to that catapult (it won't work on any other catapults after bound). It won't do any damage to attack it with a flag. After bound, right click to activate the function of that flag--either firing with current parameters for the Fire Flag, or opening the remote GUI for the Signal Flag. Currently the only way to un-bind a Flag is to have the catapult it is bound to die and then try using it once. It should reset and be able to be re-bound. Each flag is set to a single catapult.
You can have multiple flags bound to each catapult (from different players, or same player)--and a single player can own flags for multiple catapults. There is currently no way to tell which is bound to which--I'm still working on a good way to convey that to the player aside from a gui (another overlay while you have it equipped perhaps, just showing the cat# and loc of its bind, if any?) While mounted, the firing controls are always accessible via: //firing controls while riding -- in overlay -- // SPACE = FIRE // I = ANG UP // K = AND DN // J = YAW LEFT // L = YAW RIGHT // Y = PWR UP // H = PWR DN I'm working on making a keybind config for it eventually.
Hence the beta status I'll get a short text tutorial made up though, as its needed (I've got a video I need to upload, but text is always good too). Thanks for checking it out, I'll post at least one more update before I start working on 1.3-- will probably include the flak arrows as I'm writing them right now. This is a neat-looking mod. I'll be keeping my eyes on it, and may grab it to test it out, but I'm more likely to hold off on grabbing it until the crafting recipes are much more complicated.
Someone above had some good suggestions, and I'm sure you have your own ideas about how the various parts could be made. My suggestion is to have fun with it- I personally think the process of building a complicated catapult can be as much, if not more fun, than actually using the thing. The more expensive the recipes and the more variety of parts we have that we can put together, the more fun it'd be. Good luck working on this mod!
Quote from Minecraft is a wonderful game to build things in. I love building things. I also love destroying them. Not content with TNT and luring creepers around, I decided to create a catapult. Quote from Could you make a more expensive catapult recipe by using Catapult Parts? More expensive (and complicated) recipes are in the works -- The ones in there for the catapult itself (and perhaps the ammo) are kind of place holders just to have _something_.
I am definitely looking into a multi-stage crafting for the catapult itself, and perhaps even requiring a special crafting table (probably a siege-engine crafting table, with either 4x4 or 5x5 crafting grid). Some of this may wait until 1.3 though. Quote from ho do u install the only folders i find is achievement, armor, art, com, enviroment, font, gui, item, lang, misc, mob, net, paulscode, terrain, title what do i do plz help -- release area has latest links for d/l First, install Minecraft forge from the provided link (make sure it is for minecraft 1.2.5).
(YOU MUST DO THIS) This is an involved process, follow their instructions. Run minecraft once. Locate your%appdata% folder, inside of this there should be a folder called.minecraft in there, should be a folder called /mods (only AFTER you have installed forge and ran it once) place the.zip into that folder. Run the game. Instructions from README-fml.txt. Binary installation information ------------------------------- If you have downloaded a binary zip file you can install it as follows (client or server): Installation ============ To install this on it's own into a minecraft environment, simply copy the contents of the forge/fml zip file into the minecraft jar file, using your preferred zip management tool (I recommend 7 zip on windows). For servers: the minecraft jar file is minecraft_server.jar.
For clients: the minecraft jar file is minecraft.jar. You will additionally need to delete the 'META-INF' folder in the minecraft.jar file.
For bukkit: the mcportcentral custom builds of craftbukkit contain all you need already. Please refer to mcportcentral.co.za for more information. TL:DR If this is your first time installing a mod, please consult some basic tutorials on how to do so--I am a terrible teacher, and it is far beyond my ability to clearly convey how to do so unto someone with unknown knowledge. I had to watch a youtube video in order to figure it out my first time--there are some good and up-to-date ones out there. On a brighter note, I got the Anti-Personell bolt clusters in last night. Going to be fun launching a cloud of arrows at your enemies. Also--fixed the issue of climbing high walls, it will now only climb a single block at a time and will not climb at all if the wall is 2+ blocks tall.
I am to release these updates after work today (and a bit more testing). Edit to add more information for install + recommend tutorial video for mod intallation. Quote from I have a new name idea. Medieval War Machines Yes. I was already thinking along those lines--I've got some prelimenary work for a ballista, and further ideas for a battering ram, siege-tower, and an entity-based drawbridge(raise/lower it, damage it, repair it). In the far-far distant future, I would like to create NPC soldiers that you can recruit to help fight for you and man your siege engines, perhaps even NPC kingdoms to wage ware against.
I'll see where it takes me Lots of fun in the future I think -- I'll definitely have to look into setting up a full-time server to play around on with this mod -- or at least set it up for matches. But I'm definitely getting ahead of myself--I would really like to work on porting to 1.3 soon and get to a real 1.0 release so will likely work more on cleaning up code and adding videos for the next few days. Also: Bump for new release: 0.9.3.2-beta is available on the OP, both client and server. In short, it adds a few bug fixes: -no more wall climbing -cannot waste sticks repairing a full health vehicle -cleaned up some gui inconsistencies between different gui scale settings And two fun new features: Cluster / flak ammo -- shoots 10 bolts in a slightly randomized arc New crafting recipes for catapult, much more involved -- check out the crafting recipes in the OP for details Thanks again for your interest, ideas, and any feedback / bug reports.
