So i made a few minor mods, tested them so far and it looks good, but i would still like someone to test them if everything is working properly. So if someone cares to do so please help

http://dffd.wimbli.com/who.php?id=554

Creature Mods:
Giant Squirrel mod: adds a horse sized animal, its war and hunting trainable, also can act as mount and pack animal (for elves) most in temperate forests.
Bunny mod: adds bunny as vermin for most biomes and 3 hares (mountain hare in taiga/mountain, hare in any temperate and an evil carnivore that acts like cats, found in evil biomes).

Metal Mods:
Titanium Metal, with use of the already ingame ores of Ilmenite and Rutile in a complex reaction (needs lots of flux and coal, just like steel). Titanium is a little weaker than steel but lightweight.
Darklight Iron, basicly Uranium, using pitchblende and lead in the reaction, very heavy but not very strong, but still makes a good war hammer. also its glowing green ;p

Weapon Mod:
Thunderbluss Mod, adds a new building, the gunsmithy, requires mechanic job. You can make Bulletes out of blackpowder and specific metal (lead, steel, iron and copper). A Thunderbluss needs a Metal pipe section (out of steel, iron, copper, bronze or adamantine) a mechanism and wood. For blackpowder you need the alchemist job and a piece of each brimstone, saltpeter and coal. (if toady fixes this i will add blackpowder as actuall powder instead of bars)

Civ Mod:
Drows, nuff said, i would recommend if you interested in this civ you should really look at the download site :p but basicly dark skinned white haired evil elves quite fond of the underground.

edit:
I guess my thunderbluss mod will be of the interest for the most of you :p

What exactly do they do or contain?

[Rhenaya]

Exactly whats described in the download pages?

Thunderbluss -> Weapon with blackpowder reaction
Giant Squirrl & Bunny Mods -> Some critters
Titanium and Darklight Iron -> Metals (using existing stones with komplex reactions)

[Rhenaya]

i am still locking for beta testers :X come on its just a small mod

[Erk]

  give some detailed information on what these mods are so we know if we're interested in trying them out!

exactly whats on the tin? they are minor mods that hold a few reactions and stuff

[Rhenaya]

so i guess i dont get testers because people are to lazy to read? i dont get the issues from the two above.. everything is said on the download page and basicly here too, they are just very small mods. and no mod will override existing files (but there is a readme if you need to add something like reaction perimissions)

New mod:

The Drow Civilisation
http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=2176

what the mod contains is described in the link. its version 0.1 alpha as i had not much time to test everything, and i really hope that people want to help me sooner or later with testing... hope dies last.

There's no reason you can't put any info on this page.
People don't like clicking through to see what something is.
Beyond that...
It's a dangerous thing to do when you can't fully trust the source, as links don't have to be what they claim to be, like so:

Try lumping all your mods together.  To use a Dwarfy analogy:

Water is fun.
Magma is fun.

Water AND Magma is FUN!

Also, testing and feedback would be more useful if you specify what you want the mods to be and what goals you have for the mods.

Create a New World for the players to test out.  Testing out a single item is less fun than discovering a whole new playing experience.

ok... then i try again:

Creature Mods:
Giant Squirrel mod: adds a horse sized animal, its war and hunting trainable, also can act as mount and pack animal (for elves) most in temperate forests.
Bunny mod: adds bunny as vermin for most biomes and 3 hares (mountain hare in taiga/mountain, hare in any temperate and an evil carnivore that acts like cats, found in evil biomes).

Giving Drow, Thunderbluss, Squirrels and Bunny a download and a try.  Passing on the metals due to the rarity of the composite materials.

EDIT: Just noticed, You have options to make Bullets out of Iron, Copper, Lead, Silver, but all require Iron as a reagent.  Curious at the lack of steel and bronze bullets as well.

As far as feedback, I love that you have a readme for how to install and do not include a modded Entity file, this is great for newer users that like to mix mods.

Also note, the Drow mod includes the Bunny and Squirrel graphics, intended?

Hey, put the mod description in the first post please. That's where people are looking for it.

Water is fun.
Magma is fun.

Water AND Magma is FUN!

Water and magma ARE fun.


Wait, forget I said anything.

for the bullets i thought what real life bullets are made from, and thats mostly lead anyway, silver is just if werewolfs ever get affected from it ^^
also steel and adamantine would be kind agame breaking for now.

yeah i dont like mods that overrite existing files, that why i only use the readme if someone needs to be edited

mhm, no thats not intended, thanks for noting ^^
