EnergyTools - Looking for modeler/renderer


Recommended Posts

Posted

In the future, this post will be updated with a proper mod description.

 

Hi, I'm Andrew. A couple years ago, I came up with an idea for this mod, so I decided to go for it. Since then, I have learned Java and have been working on my mod. It's called EnergyTools and it is a tech mod that adds many items, blocks, and mechanics into the game. Basically, the mod adds Energy into the game that can be used in 3 different forms: Physical Energy (P-E), Electrical Energy (E-E), and Gaseous Energy (G-E). Physical energy is stored in and used by the player to power items and other things that the player uses. Electrical Energy is transferred in pipes and used by machines. Gaseous Energy is the most abstract of the types and is a liquid of sorts that is stored in tanks and can be used in the world to do different things. For example, if a farm is flooded with it, the plants grow much faster, If the player breathes it in, their speed increases, etc.

 

I have already implemented:

Energetic Ore: Ore found in the world that is used to create Energetic Ingots which are the basic crafting component of the mod. About as rare as emeralds, but found in all biomes.

 

Energizer: Machine that turns items into pure energy and can transfer it to the player or into pipes. Can be augmented with upgrades.

 

Pipes: transfer around Electrical Energy.

 

Enervator (WIP): uses electrical energy to lift or lower the player. Height limit can be upgraded.

 

Energy Tools (Pickaxe, Sword, Shovel, Axe, Hoe): use physical energy from the player to break blocks. Very fast and never break, unless the player uses them with no energy.

 

Red Bison (totally not redbull): Constantly uses energy while activated, allowing the player to use creative flight. Very expensive and moderately high energy costs. Y'know, cause redbull gives you wings?

 

To be implemented:

Gaseous Energy

 

Piping and storage system for gaseous energy

 

Electrical Energy Storage, Ore processing, and other basic machines, as well as teleporters, and more

 

Upgrades to the player (store more energy, run faster, jump higher, fly with no item, teleport short distances, etc)

 

I have listed all of this because I want to prove to you that I am not just another 12 year old who knows nothing about programming, asking people for "help" creating a mod they had an idea for and then doing nothing else. I am a programmer, I have already been developing this mod, and I will continue development with or without help. This project is legit and real.

 

So you're probably wondering: Why is he posting this? What does he want from me? Answer: I'm looking for someone (singular - one person, maybe two) who knows how to program (because if you don't, you can't really help me), with prior experience in minecraft modding and specifically in rendering. I have hit a roadblock in mod development, because I simply do not have enough knowledge of how to make custom models and render them into the game. If you believe you can help me, leave a comment and show me something you've done.

- Just because things are the way they are doesn't mean they can't be the way you want them to be. Unless they're aspen trees. You can tell they're aspens 'cause the way they are.

    • Also check the worldsave / serverconfig folder If there is no such file, make a test without this mod  
    • Hi, I've been having trouble trying to use forge as it shows a black screen when I open the game, but I can still interact with it and hear the music.  I've done all of the step by steps and most common fixes like updating drivers, keeping up to date with Java, deleting and reinstalling minecraft, restarting my computer MANY times, even smaller things like splash.properties (I didn't have that file so I added it and set it to false thinking it would do something, definitely not) and making sure to prioritize my rtx 3070 in the settings but with no luck. Minecraft works as intended when I uninstall forge and I also don't have any mods currently, it just gives me this issue when I install forge. I also increased the ram usage, made sure my hardware isn't full or anything, and even changed the resolution in hopes it would fix things. I checked my antivirus and firewall but that isn't the issue either. Trust me, I've done everything I can think of. For some reason the black screen does flicker a little into the main menu, but obviously unplayable. I couldn't even make my way to the settings with how little it flickered. I'm not sure if it flickered randomly or if it was because I was messing around moving and clicking a bunch, I didn't really test it that much.  
    • I've had a really weird issue recently,  I wanted to add the Depper and Darker mod on my dedicated server (MC 1.21 with Fabric 0.16.9, hosted on nitroserv.com) but whenever I do add the mod the sever stops doing anything after listing the mods, and I get no crash or error or anything, just a stuck server. Here's a normal log of the server booting up: https://pastebin.com/JipFF2Eh and here's the log of the server doing the weird thing: https://pastebin.com/W4JBh3eX I just don't understand it. I've tried removing other mods (somewhat randomly) but deeper and darker still breaks my server whenever I add it. NitroServ support staff is about as confused as I am and I've had no response from the Deeper and Darker support staff... Now I know this is the Forge support not the Fabric support but I'm just trying to know if anyone has any kind of idea to fix this (aside from not using the mod obviously) Also I still have a bunch of errors and warnings whenever the server does start properly, are there any of them I should be worried about?
