Hi All,
I am looking for ideas for my final project and I have that crazy idea to write a mod for Minecraft as my kids love the game and play it all the time. I have no experience in modding or Forge but I am good in Java and I can spend up to 200 hours. What do you think could be done in that time? Any suggestions are very appreciated. Is Forge still the offical-unofficial API for Minecraft modding? I am a bit confused since I was reading about an official Plugin-API and addons the other day.
I also asked the kids for some ideas and got the following list. Can you advise whether or not these are possible with Forge? I guess some things already exist. Also, as I should code, I am afraid that drawing textures and modelling take most of the time. What do you think from your experience?
math zombies (which can only be killed by solving a math task showing above their head) - I admit this was my idea
magpies stealing shiny things (like gems) from the players inventory
divining rod / detector (or compass) which can be used to search for some rare ore (which can be selected in a gui)
a sword that lights up when monsters are near (like Sting), made of moon stone
meteor shower giving meteor stone
teleporter phone booth for travelling around
fireballs
lembas (an elfish bread that makes you faster and full for long)
poseidon's trident (or aquaman's) which can be used for letting it rain, fishing, healing in the water, breathing under water
thor's hammer which can fire lightnings (unbreakable)
emojis in chat messages
flyable bats
Thanks for any help.
Kind regards
