Mystcraft 0.9.4.05

This is primarily an update release. This is a build for Minecraft 1.4.4 (which is currently in pre-release).
Note that this does NOT contain the celestial mechanics or other thing which were streamed earlier. Check out the change log for what it DOES contain. 😛

To recap: there is only one download (found at the bottom of this post); This file is the universal install for client and server; it no longer goes in the jar.
Mystcraft now goes in the mods folder.

Check the Mystcraft Forums for updates and the change log.

Enjoy!

A Successful Stream

Thanks to everyone who came by for the stream! 🙂 It was a lot of fun presenting the new Celestial Mechanics I’ve added to Mystcraft, as well as showing the power of the new modifier system.
Even better was adding the new color modifier symbols and replacing the old sky/fog/clouds/horizon symbols with you live on the stream! 🙂 That was a blast. Coding live with you guys throwing ideas around and giving feedback on what I was doing was really exciting, and I hope to do it again soon. The colored lightning that came out of that is brilliant!

To anyone who missed the stream you can watch the full thing here: http://www.twitch.tv/xcompwiz/b/339043778
I want to hear what your favorite parts were! Post the timestamps of the parts that you liked in the comments section below!

Enjoy!

Stream Planned for Sat

So I will be streaming tomorrow during the day here. This should equate to starting sometime after 12 UTC.
I’ll showcase what I’ve been working on and code a few new symbols afterward. Should be exciting!

In other news, I’m working on releasing a build of Mystcraft for 1.4.4 soon.

Hope to see you all at the stream!

And So I’m Back

…from outer space….

Or not.

Anyway, I apologize for the impromptu hiatus I just took. I had apparently reached the end of my wick, as it were, and having finished the recent stuff to Mystcraft I simply went off to do other things; mostly to spend my free time on things other than Mystcraft. 😛

But I’m back and looking forward to some of the stuff I have planned for Mystcraft. New things and a number of changes, some of which will change the very nature of how you view your worlds. 😉
At this point I turn my attention to crafting and better writing systems. At some point in the near future I want to address the beds/sleeping issues, but first I have some more crazy things to throw at you that will very much affect that.

Now I’m off to clean up a few things and get started on the stuff I have planned for you. First order of business is to plan out things and group them so I can possibly break things up into multiple releases. Then you don’t have to wait so long for new content. 🙂

Enjoy!
