Death Counter, Gravity Gun, PortalGun, Trail Mix, updated to 1.5.0v1. iChun Util introduced. Searge Name obfuscation used.

Posted in Gravity Gun, iChunUtil, Mod Updates, PortalGun, Trail Mix | 10 Comments

Gravity Gun, PortalGun and Trail Mix now requires a “shared library” mod dependency, iChun Util. iChun Util makes it easier for me to reference similar functions used by all three mods. Think of it of something like “CodeChickenCore”, except it isn’t a coremod.

Also, the 4 mentioned mods now use the new “Runtime Deobfuscation” method provided by FML/Forge. As Minecraft updates there should be no reason to update certain mods, unless things break, thanks to FML.

Unfortunately to allow this, the file size of a bunch of the mods may have increased slightly (heh, what’s 1 or 2 more extra mb nowadays anyways).

If any issues were to arise from runtime deobf, let me know immediately and I will see what I can do about it.

 

Changelogs:

PortalGun 1.5.0v1
– Fixes here and there… Lost track of them.
– Fixed issue with addBlockIDToGrabList in API.
– Fixed crash issue with singing turrets.
– Weighted Cubes will not drop an item if broken by Creative Players
– Now requires iChun Util.
– Introduction of Hard Mode for PortalGun
– Added console print out when receiving invalid IMCMessage

GravityGun 1.5.0v1
– Fixed issue with addBlockIDToGrabList in API.
– Now requires iChun Util.

Trail Mix and DeathCounter 1.5.0v1
– Now requires iChun Util. (Trail Mix only)
– Ported to 1.5

Happy Birthday, PortalGun!

Posted in PortalGun | 11 Comments

Unknown to many, today (March 9) is actually Portal Gun’s 2nd birthday! Yep, it’s been two long years of this mod being available to the public, and of course, the various updates including content and fixes. Wow, how much it has grown since then. How much many things have changed since then, too.

Today marks a special milestone for the mod. You guys playing with portals today may notice a surprise on your wall portals. An easter egg has been put in on wall portals as a mark of another year passed, as well as to bring truth to “The cake is a lie!”.

In accordance to it’s birthday, I will also be introducing a half-baked idea (it’s not really “sciency”, I agree, but it was an idea, and I’m trying it out), called Portal Gun “Hard Mode” <–clickable. It’s a config option which makes getting a Portal Gun even harder. Some have even dubbed it “Greg mode”. Either way, this config will be included in PortalGun builds 1.5 onwards, and is very heavily subject to change. If you don’t like it, don’t use it. Like I said, it doesn’t really fit the theme of the mod, and will probably change in the future.

Besides that, I will also be opening my mod pack perms on PortalGun and Gravity Gun, for Private FTB Packs. From today onwards, Private FTB Packs are allowed to include PortalGun and/or Gravity Gun as long as the FTB Team is permitted to use them. This however, means that if I were to revoke permissions from the FTB Team, it would immediately revoke them from all Private FTB Packs as well, and they will have to be removed. Thankfully, I don’t see that likely any time soon, enjoy it while it lasts!

 

Cheers, and Happy Birthday, Portal Gun!
