SuperSlopes v2.1 for Minecraft 1.7.3 - Added smooth lights compatibility

2011-05-30T03:34:00.000-07:00

This new version takes into account the smooth lights. By default (and for standard lighting compatibility), the opacity of the slopes is set on 0, but this parameter can be modified in the property file that you can find in the .minecraft/ directory (after launching the game once).

To install this mod, you will need Modloader 1.7.3

- Risugami Modloader 1.7.3

- Kaevator SuperSlopes v2.1 MC 1.7.3
- Kaevator SuperSlopes v2.1 MC 1.7.3 (Alternate link)

Here are the traditional readme file and property file

Here is what you should get with the smooth lights:

And there with the standard lights (former versions):

Ceiling stairs : 3 new types and a saw - Minecraft 1.7.3

2011-05-18T04:51:00.000-07:00

Hi !

As it was requested a long time ago, I've been working on corners for the ceiling stairs.

It took some time, because I din't want to use more recipes and I had to find a new way to make my blocks, so here is the solution I found:

- The ceiling stairs will now be regrouped in a separated mod for those who don't want to use the slopes.

- The ceiling stairs from superslopes will be removed in a next version, you will need this new mod to add them.

- There are no recipes to craft the stairs, you have to craft a Saw that will allow you on a right click on any block to circle the different models of stairs.

This mod requires Modloader 1.7.3

Download Kaevator Ceiling Stairs 2.1

Download Kaevator Ceiling Stairs 2.1 (Mediafire)

Installation:

Simply put the zip file in your .minecraft\mods folder.

Guide:
To create the new blocks, you will first need a saw:

When right-clicking on a planks, cobblestone, glass, sandstone, dirt, stone, sand, blocksnow, grass, brick, gravel, gold, steel, obsidian or diamond block, you will circle the 4 different types of stairs as shown on the next picture:

Ta-dam !

Kaevator Hedges & Shears ... Pruners !! MC 1.7.3

2011-05-06T10:36:00.000-07:00

Some new stuff in the world of gardening!

I corrected the absence of damage to the shears and added some hedges shapes... But to craft them, you're gonna need a new tool: the Pruners!

To craft the shears, follow the recipe:

Left clicking on leaves will remove them with an increased speed and sometime drop sapling (nothing special there), right-clicking will always drop a hedge block that you can now place wherever you want.

Left-clicking on a hedge block with the shears will cut a side of the block and make a corner.

To craft the pruners, just follow this recipe:

Right-clicking on a hedge block (not on the leaves of a tree) will successively make the following results in order:

Then, if you missed the shape you wanted, you will have to left-click to destroy your block...

This mod requires Modloader v1.7.3

- Risugami Modloader 1.7.3

- Kaevator Hedges&Shears v1.1 Minecraft 1.7.3
- Kaevator Hedges&Shears v1.1 Minecraft 1.7.3 (Mediafire)

SuperSlopes K3 V2 - Select your materials

2011-04-14T05:51:00.000-07:00

As I saw lots of request for a light version of the mods with less materials (associated to the fact that I never use some of them), I found a way to select the slopes you want to see in the game and thus reduce the number of Block ID used by this mod.
I also changed the recipe of ground and ceiling slopes to become compatible with one mod.
And last but not least, I'll change the way I count the versions of the mod, because the previous one was too similar to MC versions and made some confusion.
These changes are explained in the readme file below.

To install this mod, you will need Modloader V1.5_01

- Risugami Modloader 1.5_01

- Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v2 MC 1.5_01 (Adfly = support)
- Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v2 MC 1.5_01 (Alternate link)

Here are the traditional readme file and property file

Kaevator Hedges & Shears MC 1.5_01

2011-04-08T08:21:00.000-07:00

In order to try something else, I made a small mod allowing you to craft shears and then harvest leaves which will then make beautiful hedges for your garden.

This mod requires Modloader v1.5_01

- Risugami Modloader 1.5_01

- Kaevator Hedges&Shears v1.0 (Adf.ly = support)
- Kaevator Hedges&Shears v1.0 (Mediafire)

To craft Shears, simply follow the recipe on this picture:

These shears will allow you to cut leaves faster with left click and drop leaves block with right click.

SuperSlopes K3 v1.4, added some slopes (compatible MC v1.4_01)

2011-03-18T04:52:00.000-07:00

This new update comes with two improvements:

- 4 new slopes blocks that will help you finish your rooftops.
- Separation of SuperSlope blocks in 3 different mods if you want to install only some of them.

This mod requires Modloader 1.4

- Risugami Modloader 1.4_01

- Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v1.4

Here are the traditional readme file and prop file

Then, if you feel that you would need to free some block ID's, you can download the blocks separately 4 by 4. (These packs can be combined)
- Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v1.4 only slopes
- Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v1.4 only corners
- Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v1.4 only interior corners

Here are the 4 new blocks added in this version, they come in 15 different materials, as others.

Oblique slope:

Slopes intersection:

Completed rooftop:

SuperSlopes K3 v1.3 Modloader V5, 15 materials, 8 blocks !!

2011-03-11T02:27:00.000-08:00

Here comes the new SuperSlopes!

As I finally managed to reduce the number of block Id's, I was able to add more materials and corner slopes to the SuperSlopes mod using just 30 block ID's.

In the same time, I took the opportunity of a new Modloader to make all the updates at once and start my mod on a new "cleaner" basis.
This is why your former maps shouldn't be compatible with this update, unless you remove all the SuperSlopes blocks in your map (with the previous version of the mod).

Ok, no more talk, here are the required files (I don't pack everything in a single file to let you visit and support the other mods).

- Risugami Modloader V5

- Shokah's Block IDs+

- Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v1.3

The installation instructions are in this readme file.
My mod automatically creates a prop file in the .minecraft folder that allows you to modify the conflicting ID's, if you want to download this file to make your own sauce, you can find it there.

One more thing: Modloader V5 should remove all the conflicts in block rendering, which means that there shouldn't be anymore compatibility issues with FancyPack if ChocolateySyrup updates it to Modloader V5.

Here are the blocks and recipes (all of them exist in 15 materials)

Ok, ok I'm not a monster, here is a big pack with both SuperSlopes and FancyPack:

It still requires Modloader V4 to load, I won't explain again the whole process, I know you're hardcore gamers !

They just allowed you to see stairs as slopes in SMP without changing anything to the server.

Here is the updated versions of the K2 mod:

SuperSlopes K3 compatible with Minecraft 1.3

2011-02-28T01:08:00.000-08:00

I didn't have time yet to go deeper into the new versions of Minecraft and ModLoader, so for this version, I just copy-pasted the previous one into the new files to allow you to play without delay.

I had to modify the ID's of some blocks to make it wotk with the new version, so I simply took the ID's previously included in my propfile. For this reason, the new version might not be compatible with your previous maps...
Shokah more ID is now directly included.
The prop file and readme file are now included in the zip.

Please install in order:

Risugami's ModLoader 1.3 01v4 (direct link)

Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v1.2 beta 1.3 (put only the files from the jar folder to minecraft.jar)

Thanks to Risugami and Shockah for their work.

SuperSlopes K3 v1.2 now with corner slopes for your rooftops!

2011-02-15T01:57:00.000-08:00

One more adding to SuperSlopes!

Now that some of the most common compatibility issues are more or less solved, I take this opportunity to release a new version with the corner slopes in order to finish your rooftops and pyramids!
You now need all the following stuff to run the mod, FancyPack compatibility is also included.

Please install in order:

Risugami's ModLoader 1.2 02v4 (direct link)

Shockah's More IDs rev 5 (direct link)

Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v1.2

As it get more and more complicated to have ID compatibility, I recommend also that you download the following propfile : K3 v1.2 prop file and put it in your .minecraft folder.
Here is also the readme file for this version.

Thanks to Risugami and Shockah for their work.

ChocolateySyrup FancyPack Compatibility

2011-02-11T04:02:00.000-08:00

Ahoy!

As I saw that the compatibility with FancyPack seemed to be a huge limitation for you Minecrafters, I spent some time studying ChocolateSyrup code and implemented his Rendering functions in a common rendering file that allows you to use both mods together.

For this, you will need, in order of installation:

Risugami's ModLoader 1.2 02v4 (direct link)

Shockah's More IDs rev 5 (direct link)

ChocolateySyrup's FancyPack 3.1 (direct link)

Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v1.1 Modloader + FancyPack comp

I won't explain the installation process again, here is the readme file, you have to put all these files inside a clean minecraft.jar in the above order, so that the new bt.class erase the previous one.

Thanks to Risugami, Shockah and ChocolateySyrup for their work.

SuperSlopes + FancyPack

SuperSlopes now compatible with Modloader and prop files

2011-02-10T17:41:00.000-08:00

Great news!

After shaking the minecraft modding box in all direction, I finally found how to implement ModLoader in the SuperSlopes and to make a prop file to help solving conflicting ID's.

All you need is:

Risugami's ModLoader 1.2 02v4 (direct link)

Kaevator SuperSlopes K3 v1.1 ModLoader

Follow the instructions in the readme.txt to make it work, don't forget to backup all your files before any modification.

I also added a prop file system (courtesy of TehKrush) that detects the conflicting ID's and write them into a KaevatorSuperSlopes.props file in your .minecraft directory where you can modify them and avoid conflicts with others mods.
To install directly this file and set your ID's up, download it there.

And to celebrate this step forward into compatibility, here is a picture of SuperSlopes in action thanks to Kumanji.

First SuperSlopes video!

Thanks to BlockTutorial, here is the first video (German) featuring the SuperSlopes blocks!

SuperSlopes K3 v1.1

2011-02-06T09:43:00.000-08:00

As hardcorde builders were asking for more materials in SuperSlopes, I extended the slopes properties to 8 others materials. You probably won't be able to make grass slopes for now, but I'm working on it !

I also added the corner blocks which will smooth your corners.

Here is the result

And my new secret hideout for penguins!

Now I will work a little bit on compatibility, which seems to be the new priority.
