Introduction

Welcome to Aquaculture! An expansion of Minecraft's fishing system. For those that know me, you know I'm the creator of Metallurgy, another expansion mod that greatly enhanced the mining system in Minecraft. Well Aquaculture is my attempt to do the same for the bland fishing system.

 

In Aquaculture you never know what you'll catch. Every biome is home to tons of unique fish you can only catch in that biome, and there's a myriad of new loot items you can randomly catch while fishing.

 

All of this is made possible by simply crafting the Iron Fishing Rod.

 

The Iron Fishing Rod

This new shiny addition is a gateway to your journey into Aquaculture! Simply crafting it will enable all the features of the mod. By using a new fishing rod, I was able to avoid making base class edits ot the game which would severely harm any compatibility with other mods as well as ceaselessly complicating multiplayer/updates.

 

There are plans for new and better fishing rods that will increase your chances to get cooler loot while fishing (Gold, Diamond, and Neptunium are all planned!)

 

The Fishables

Ah yes the part you've all been waiting for, Aquaculture's 32+ new fish and 12+ fishable loot items!

 

For the mostpart Aquaculture sticks to realism, the new fish are (mostly) real species that have been translated into Minecraft.

 

(Red colored fish are not yet implemented but are planned)

Note: If you are using a mod that adds new biomes or are fishing in a biome that doesn't have specific fish, it will default to Freshwater Fish, meaning technically this mod is compatible with any other Biome adding mod there is!

Driftwood + Workbench = 4 Planks

2 Iron + Stick + 2 String + Workbench = Iron Fishing Rod

(Any Fish) + Workbench = Raw Fish Fillet

Raw Fish Fillet + Furnace = Cooked Fish Fillet (Restores 2.5 marks of Hunger)

This looks very cool, indeed doing to fishing what you did for metals.  Very nice.

[calclavia]

Make the fish visible in the water while it's swimming and not like the Minecraft fish which can be fished out from one block of water...

[OvermindDL1]

Make the fish visible in the water while it's swimming and not like the Minecraft fish which can be fished out from one block of water...

You would not even need entities for that, just a particle system where its 'density' of fish is based on likelyhood of what you find or whatever.

[Jace239]

This is great! I look forward to playing with this, along with your Metallurgy mod once it's updated for Forge and 1.3!

 

I agree with the suggestion of having water show how big a concentration of fish there is. If it's as calclavia claims then that would certainly be worthwhile to implement.

 

I'd also like to suggest that you require a stronger fishing rod in order to catch fish like the shark and whale, as it seems a little ridiculous to catch them with an iron fishing rod alone. Perhaps the neptunium and/or that gold one I noticed in your sprites?

 

Finally I'd like to add I think it's great that you allow your mod to be included in modpacks, as I'll definitely want it to be used in conjunction with mine once it's done.

 

Thanks for making this! 

[Shadowclaimer]

Thanks guys for the support!

 

Most of my efforts will be concentrated on Metallurgy honestly when 1.3 hits, and in actuality I may merge Aquaculture over into it eventually (its a possibility). For now however they'll stay separate =P

 

Gold/Diamond/Neptunium Rods are coming eventually, I'm just toying with some bits for checking carried items and such to change the loot rolls.

[foreverblu]

Maybe fishes actually appear in the water as mobs?

Pls help me, I have a quest in my questbook (RAD modpack) that is about catching all fishes in the mod Aquaculture. But I'm fishing in Cold Taiga, Tundra, Ice Plains, Cold Beach, I broke like 5 diamond fishing rods and I can't even catch the Halibut. If anyone know anything about that say me.
