Tutorial Basic Object Implementation: A Tutorial

Modding Minecraft was fun for a while, but the frequent updates with updated obfuscation made it frustrating as well.

 

No, since it was saying the object is a glitch object
And crafting objects is not bound to 1 race
That and her char looks like a human

Btw, as a programmer, I believe that this is the interval between each frame, which is kinda good to know

 

It looks so easy! I love you guys for supporting modding and already telling us how to do it

 

Is there any chance this kind of thing will be included in the game proper?

 

Ya also might wanna try out Paint.NET. It's easily Googled.

I second this!

 

Yeah i (as a non artist) use paint.net to mockup/touchup art in the game.

 

Updated OP. We autogenerate .objitem files on load now, so they are not required to be manually specified.

 

Ok, now what about embedding the content in the .frames file into the .object file as well? Or do you need .frames separate because graphics are independent of objects, for reusability?

 

.frames files apply to images in general. These images can and often are reused. And we use the same layout for several different files, and one .frames apply to several images.

 

Is there any possible way that we can get a list of all the "categories" and "anchors"?

 

Once the mod format is set in stone, it would be great to get that info so we can start making mods!

 

Wow! Seriously awesome of you to put together this tutorial! Thanks!

I love modding, so this'll come in very handy!

 

BTW, this ability to make own item in game is a some way to make something unique gift in the game to other player.

 

wouldn't it be cool if a bunch of forum members learnt this stuff and then started doing stuff for the devs e.g. bug fixes mechanics implementation etc and posted it somewhere and then they log on and there's content already made for them and they're completely flabbergasted

 

Handy to know! Assuming that this is still accurate when the game hits beta/release...well, hopefully I'll have the time to actually do something with it.

 

Just a curious question know that the game has changed a tad since this post. How does race specific descriptions work?

 

Thanks for this, Molly!

 

The unfortunate thing is: The modding format Chucklefish is using implies they are not releasing the source code at all, meaning mechanics are pretty much set in stone...

((That is until someone creates a de-compiler for SB. lol))

 

That all depends on how extensive the API is. Thus far, the intent is to allow modders to do whatever they want, and I believe that will be implemented by continually expanding the API. So, I think that asking them to add to the API in a particular way will be met with friendly accommodation.

Edit: Although, the post you're replying to is a bit silly (no offense). The people making the program won't let the community work on bug fixes.... that would open the game up to an insane security risk... if risk is the right word. Security hole? Security black hole? Security terrifying event of terror that destroys all black holes because of how terrifying it is?
