Decimal colors for fluids (the color appears to be determined by the code rather than any image, via decimal colors, hopefully these work, I am using this site to get decimal codes: http://www.colorhexa.com/), since I have not taught myself java yet (I will create some textures and models in the mean time):

Absinthe: 6393643

Rum: 10579213

Pulque: 16777200

Tequila: 16764309

Vodka: 14474460

Cognac: 10700827

Applejack: 14451517

Whiskey: 14003567

Moonshine: 12632256

Submit more decimal colors for fluids as needed.

[Ar97x]

Will it be with flowing textures or just simple, pure colored bottles?

Most likely they will be the same as those from growthcraft in terms of appearance.

[Ar97x]

That's nice. The main colors you chosr are pretty much ideal for me.

Fluids in this mod are colored via the code, not via static images. So most likely creating textures for the new drinks are not needed yet.

[Sunconure11]

I'll send an example of the fluid code.

[Ar97x]

I haven't worked with textures in minecraft yet, only public mod
translations and modpack config for my own use

BTW, the contribution I can make to the mod is translating it to
portuguese, besides creative ideas.

[Sunconure11]

That can work. Once Groth appears here, I will transfer ownership of this repo to him.

[Ar97x]

And I'll keep the translations updated, when new things come out.

[Ar97x]

As soon as he gets it, I'll make the same offer to him

[Alatyami]

Very cool, these are some great ideas for continuing a great mod.

Alatyami

Aka GrothHammerPick

[Sunconure11]

I will now transfer the repository to Groth. However, I will still update this thread.

[Sunconure11]

While I wait for him to accept it, I will create a texture for Agave Syrup, since that will be separate from the forms of alcohol the agave addon might add, assuming it takes hold.

[Sunconure11]

Hm, it seems I cannot transfer the repository to him.

[Sunconure11]

I created one texture for Growthcraft Agave. The idea for this module came from Azumarill on the forum, who suggested Agave crops.

[Sunconure11]

Agave Syrup textures are based on booze textures, but, it is not a fluid, so, its color is determined by the texture. I'm going to create a still model later.

[Sunconure11]

My idea for the still will likely look something like this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8f/Liquor_Still_Frankfort_489226997.jpg/800px-Liquor_Still_Frankfort_489226997.jpg

[Alatyami]

I have it forked here: https://github.com/alatyami/Growthcraft-1.7

If you want to transfer it we can sync the two and then start using either mine or still use yours, up to you.

[Alatyami]

Hm, it seems I cannot transfer the repository to him.

My Git account is "alatyami"

~Groth

[Alatyami]

My idea for the still will likely look something like this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8f/Liquor_Still_Frankfort_489226997.jpg/800px-Liquor_Still_Frankfort_489226997.jpg

Then we can have a pipe go to a tank for the resulting fluid.

[Sunconure11]

I know, but, it says I cannot transfer it because of the fact that you have a growthcraft repo as well.

[Alatyami]

Ah ... I removed mine it was named the same.

[Sunconure11]

Transfer requested.

[Ar97x]

If you can make a texture for a still like that, it would be awesome. And
Groth, do you want me to work on the portuguese translations now or do you
prefer to do some work before I start it? Remember to notify me as soon as
you get something new, this way I keep the translation updated

[Alatyami]

That would be great. Please do so.

[Alatyami]

@Ar97x I created another issue for you to use for the transition.

[Sunconure11]

I contemplated adding a domestic animals module to the list, but, before I do any modelling for this mod, including the still, I need to finish Deinocheirus for It's About Time. My sleep schedule is out of whack again so this could be a bit.

[Sunconure11]

Updated the page to include that.

[Sunconure11]

Does anyone have any ideas for growthcraft tundra, for when/if that is dealt with? I cannot think of many crops for that, if any at all.

[IceDragon200]

@Sunconure11 Fur Clothing?

I'd like to wear one of those big fluffy fur caps

[Sunconure11]

Fur items of some kind were thought of, but, I cannot think of many unique uses for it. Though fur would be nice.

[Sunconure11]

While neither the isopod or boar (well, the boar might) fit in any current concepts for modules, I was wondering if it might be possible to make these in the mod:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/3w0yqm/found_this_in_my_sketch_folder_kind_of_wish_i/

Look in the comments for the isopod.

[Sunconure11]

Since me and pitch had a brief discussion on how we might all be overwhelming the coders, why not some smaller, simple ideas? Watermelon wine? (fermented from watermelons)

[Sunconure11]

[Sunconure11]

Still working with dairy a bit, but, I need a better list of materials for future tools.

Anyone got anything? This is my current list:

Vanilla materials, plus thaumium, voidsteel, manasteel, steel, silver, copper, bronze, electrum, ivory (if that makes it into snow), certus quartz, ender amethyst, ruby, sapphire, peridot, (list other mod materials here)

This is for mod support mainly

[Ar97x]

Shiny (Platinum) Ferrous (Nickel) Lead Tin Invar Dark Steel Unstable Ingot Osmium Those are all that I can remember

[HanatakeYurii]

Hi,

I hope I will not throw a rock in a pool but I would have suggested lambics for the "Various new forms" of beers.
Lambics are produced by spontaneous fermentation (no yeasts are added in, they're exposed to wild yeasts and bacterias). They can be found in various kinds including for the most-known kriek lambic (refermented with sour cherries) and gueuze (blending young (1-year-old) and old (2- to 3-year-old) lambics, which is then bottled for a second fermentation).
They're common beers in Belgium and are of a really different taste than conventionnal beers.

I think it would not be so hard to add them since major fermenting mechanics already exist, and would add some variety with the use of other fruits like cherries.

Thanks for considering this ... and for your great work as well ^^

(PS: my second idea was to add fruit alcohols like sirups, and possibly make cocktails of them, but it's way more hazy in my mind)

[Sunconure11]

I think we can probably handle fruit alcohol in a future module. Maybe a small cherry tree module for what you are describing? What do you say, @IceDragon200 @PitchBright @Alatyami @Ar97x

Plus we could finally do the cultivar system to an extent with a cherry tree module.

[Ar97x]

I don't know half of you guys do about booze, but I like the fruit alcohol idea, giving the fruit presser more uses. And I got an idea for what Hanatake suggested. As he said that lambics are fermented by nature course, I think it could be out of the fermentation barrel step, and be fermented by placing the liquid into a 2x2 hole, requiring 4 buckets to get it started. The stages could be monitored by the colour of the drink (and Waila), or something else we can figure out together.

[PitchBright]

What exactly does "Community Edition" mean anyway?

[Sunconure11]

Community Edition refers to the fact that this is a continuation done by several people, who have continued Gwafu's work in his or her absence.

[PitchBright]

Would be great if we had more people helping. I think we should make a new rule:

1. Each member of the community is allowed to submit one idea
2. Each member of the community is not allowed to submit a second idea, until they have either executed their first idea, or found somebody to execute it the code/art.

I feel like you guys spend more time day-dreaming and spit-balling ideas, rather than actually contributing to the "community edition". It makes for extra noise and headache for the two or three people who are actually actively working on stuff. I honestly don't think we need to "chef by committee" this puppy. What makes it worse is that 90% of the stuff being thrown out as "cool ideas" are total departures from Gwafu was creating. I don't know how many times/ways I have to say that.

I think another good rule would be… if you refer to it by its Latin name… then it shouldn't be in GrowthCraft.

Look at that first post? Who the fock is gonna make all that stuff? Let's get real here. All we're doing is making a giant list of stuff that makes this mod (and the work to be done on it by the few who are doing it) feel like a Mountain.

[Sunconure11]

This thread was created with the sole purpose of collecting as many ideas mentioned by players as possible. This is one of the oldest pages on here, and there is indeed a good chance little of this would be executed. I added all of this based on ideas from the thread and such at the time.

Also, your idea for how players should commit stuff sounds like a bad idea, though we do need more coders.

I did try to get some minor legwork done for these ideas though.

[PitchBright]

@Sunconure11 , please make a Wiki list of all the boozes that were submitted in this whole convo (not the stuff that you can't put in your mouth and swallow like Bamboo Ladders. Booze only.)

Then close this up.

The Brew Kettle is fully configurable, it's extremely powerful and if anybody wants to make some obscure booze… they're more than welcome to. All they need to do is code it up and supply the art.

[PitchBright]

Then change the title to "General Discussion and Random Ideas"

[Sunconure11]

I'll try the stuff that won't require a distillery. I have not made the model for that as I cannot find a suitable design, some are shoddy, some are too big or too industrial, I need a design to fit in with Growthcraft.

[Sunconure11]

Im going to toss out a script here tomorrow with as much of the booze this has mentioned. It will be a modified config file, but, think of it as these ideas being executed without the dev needing to code it.

After that, I'll close this. These scripts might require a few mods though. Witchery (absinthe), and at least something with most major fruits come to mind.
