  • Luma Fixture
    Luma Fixtures are wall (and floor/ceiling) mountable lamps, powered by redstone. They come in caged and inverted versions.
    Their placement behaviour corresponds to torches. That means, if the block they're placed on is destroyed, they will drop as items.
    Comes in all 16 colors (color white with dyes, like wool)

  • Multilamp:
    Changes its color according to the strength of Redstone power it receives. This is especially useful when used with other mods like Computercraft which can output different power levels.
    It comes in a normal and a caged version.
    The Multilamp requires a new item called Chroma Stone in its crafting recipe.

Please let me know what you think. This is my first mod. I'm a programmer but a noob in Java/Forge API so please be gentle, I'm still learning  ;)

Wow, nice video and intro. This seems pretty good! One suggestion though: it would be awesome if the lighting color matched the color of the lamp... Not sure if this is trivial though, as I haven't poked around with the lighting API (raw OpenGl or abstracted?). But this can still definitely make your homes less dull.

I like to make mods, just like you. Here's one worth checking out

Thanks a lot!

To change the color of the light itself i would need to rewrite the whole lighting system, and even Mojang are still having trouble with that ;) So I think this is not (easily) possible. Otherwise I think one of the expert mod devs would have done it already...

When the "light" blocks are placed, you could just skip any normal blocks. But there are still many things that wouldnt quite work... Or maybe an approach using an entity that renders differently depending on the blocks around it; just speculation... Well in any case, it's probably fine as it is :)

    • Here is the end of the log. it was way too big to put in pastebin, but I started from when I was online and everything was fine. Error should be in here: https://pastebin.com/Sdhdq593
    • Update: I stand corrected as I was able to dig up a relevant log from my earlier testing which highlights the overall issue but does not explain how to solve it. See, Diagnostic Logs for pack.mcmeta not found: https://pastebin.com/LXS8Rtna
    • Which mod was this? What are all the mods that were in use? It will help if enough information to replicate the problem is available.
    • I have been attempting to create a supplementary resource pack with Patchouli in order to add back the guidebook for Better End but unfortunately in every prototype I have made pack.mcmeta and my resource pack are not recognized. I have tested both zipped and unzipped and either way curseforge does not recognize my resource pack as existing. For testing I stripped my pack down to just the pack.mcmeta file and two empty folders labelled data and assets and I know the data folder is not the problem as firstly my first attempts just had an assets folder following Patchouli instructions and data came later in my flailing attempts to make anything in my pack work. The mcmeta file is not recognized whether or not I use this:  { "pack": { "pack_format": 15, "description": "A replacement for the BetterEnd Guide Book." } "language": { "en_US": { "name": "English", "region": "United States" } } } ,or this:  { "pack": { "pack_format": 15, "description": "A replacement for the BetterEnd Guide Book." } } I have made sure to only use lowercase and the pack folder is named better-end-guide. Is this some magic nonsense from me doing this manually instead of using an IDE or similar tool? Could it be because my files are by default in UTF-8 even though ANSI gives the same results? Is there a specific community secret tool I am supposed to use for zipping or specific settings? I am pulling my hair in distress. Unfortunately as there are no errors involved I lack logs to offer, if that disqualifies this thread please do not be harsh and instead if you can then please direct me to a forum with different rules and sufficiently respectful but knowledgeable as to be of assistance. Most of my experience with the programming community has been poor and so naturally I find myself wary.
    • I never picked up a tier 0 dragon skull to my knowledge. One of my other skulls must have bugged out and randomly became one. I was confused on what the heck it was and tried placing it, now the game will only crash because it can't render in whatever the heck the tier 0 skull is. This is on a server and it crashes anyone within render distance.
