Project Zulu v0.3.0 Released

Project Zulu has now graduated to v 0.3.0, you can find it over here. This update took a little longer than expected. This was due to me switching focus midway through its creation form creating some mob creatures to creating a bad-ass pyramid. It spawns in Deserts (not desert hills). I've also added ExtraBiome support:...

First Wonder: Pyramid Dungeon

Last couple days I've been buckling down and working on that pyramid wonder I promised to make a while ago. It's 25 blocks tall and has 4 'layers' which each consist of a randomly generated maze (so each time should be a unique experience). The structure naturally comes with plenty of dungeon chests (along with some sneaky mimics) and plenty...

Generic Update: Extra Biomes Support, Separate Package For Mobs

Good news for people who just wanted the mobs, I've managed to seperate out all the different pieces of the mod into 4 packages: Core, Blocks, Mobs, and World. The latter 3 all require the 'core' package, but are otherwise independent. If Features overlap, they will only operate if all required packages are loaded. i.e. Oasis spawn requrires Palm Tree Block Blocks, so It'll only generate Oasis if the Block Package is loaded....

Elephant Stampeded and More Models

Lots of things being worked on since the last update. Possibly to many things at once. While I was working on models yesterday I got a little carried away. Note they are various stages of completion and are demonstrated from techne where I can't rotate pieces. For the mimic chest I'm going with a FF style where...

Generic Update: Desert Gen Tweaks

Went and did a bunch of changes to the desert that I've been putting off. I think I solved the invisible cactus problem. But I've always had trouble finding them. Made armadillos passive. They act like zombie pigmen, aggro all nearby armadillos if damaged. Went and added additional checks to SoundEvent which hopefully will prevent future...

Got Snow

I really wanted the snow biomes in Project Zulu to have snow that increases when it snows. Problem is, how do I change it without editing base classes? Simple enough, just create a custom black that if it's near the original it replaces it. Cherry on the cake is that it piggy backs on the built in functionally minecraft has where if there...
