I'll be live in 30 with Building Blocks and today I'm hoping to finish up the last of the #VariousTypes wing styles and potentially chucking in a couple new #Minecraft abilities using our newly-implemented utility systems!
See you there! #gamedev
A pair of banners, both with a red-yellow gradient and the Mojang logo. The left banner is noticeably deteriorated compared to the right.
Black mould covering a variety of block faces, including several faces within the same block space
A player with deer antlers and bird-like wings made from oak wood and leaves. They are standing next to a stack of oak leaf blocks, demonstrating that the colour of the leaves in their wings matches that of the placed blocks. This is significant because oak leaves are tinted by the biome they are in.
Closing hours of #mcartday so here's a random selection of stuff I've done this past month
For #ReclamationMod, we have procedurally-tattered banners and black mould, and for #VariousTypes we have tree wing cosmetics that can even match the in-world biome colours!
It's all on aesthetics tonight with some more #VariousTypes work, adding emitter entities to streamline ability effects and finally getting to modelling fairy wings!
Live in 30, see you there!

I'll be live in 30 with Building Blocks, and it's gotta be a short one tonight so I can be up in time to overthrow the government tomorrow (in #Minecraft) so we're gonna make a couple cute particles for #VariousTypes.

It certainly doesn't feel like it's been 7 months since the last update but #VariousTypes finally has a new beta version, for both Fabric and NeoForge, featuring an overhauled command structure and rather more significantly: Cosmetics!
Go forth and slay, gamers ✨

A Minecraft character with ram horns and deer antlers, with a light-blue eye icon hovering above their head
A Minecraft character sitting down in the Various Types character sheet screen, with a piglin snout and ears, ram horns, and deer antlers. A white eye icon hovers above their head.
Reproducing this little floating icon cosmetic from #VariousEquipment for #VariousTypes has proven to be quite the headache, but so far I'm making good progress and even some improvements on the original!
A detail to note is that the #VariousTypes cosmetic system has "slots" for each specific category. Most cosmetics only get 1 slot (like ears, nose, or wings) but horns have 3.
This means you can mix and match various models and colours of horns to create stylish looks like the above image!
A screenshot showing a poll conducted in a Discord channel by a tortoise named Slow Milking. The inquiry of "What should I work on tonight on stream?" permits the answers: Various Types tail cosmetics, Left-over bits and bobs for Hrrmowners, and Start new project with Reclamation's decay system. 100% of the vote is tallied for tail cosmetics.
The unabashed tail enjoyers in my community Discord have decreed that this evening I will be mainly modelling and animating more new cosmetics for #VariousTypes.
See you there, live in 30! 😄

Hmm, currently the cosmetics system of #VariousTypes treats custom cosmetics as the baseline on top of which everything else is added, but I wonder if the reverse would be better?
It'd preserve custom-tailored aesthetics more, but reflect your actual character build less.

Some of my recent #VariousTypes cosmetic modelling work for #mcartday
A crouching Minecraft character wearing a turtle shell helmet. Hovering by their back is a pair of bird-like wing shapes textured like the End Portal.
Today I added an actual custom cosmetics section to the #VariousTypes character sheet, so players can have individual cosmetics regardless their actual loadout. Just for RP.
"For Lore Reasons™️, I have these mystical wings made of the night sky. But no I absolutely cannot fly please get me a bucket"
#VariousTypes Draconic cosmetics looking pretty nice all together!
I'm live in 30 with Building Blocks and tonight we're adding a Bunch of new cosmetic options to #VariousTypes! See you there!

Thanks to yesterdays going-ham-ness with the #VariousTypes handling of cosmetics, the orkin now actually look like orkin! Yippee! 🐖

I took one look at just how many creature cosmetics I added in #VariousEquipment way back when and realised that I'm probably going to need more comprehensive cosmetic infrastructure for #VariousTypes.
So I made that, and then gave myself a little developer flair, as a treat 😛
I'll be live in 30 minutes finally tackling the question of how best to model, texture, and animate dragon wings for #VariousTypes!
See you there! #gamedev

My job today is mainly overdue texturing so after a bunch back and forth I think this is a good enough look for membranous bat wings in #VariousTypes
I'll be live in 30 minutes with #gamedev on Building Blocks and today I'll be showing off some funky animations made possible last week for #VariousTypes and resolving a problem that #Minecraft kinda already solved for #WheelchairsMod!
See you there!

Bit of post-strem research and we now have a fully-functional animation state engine to make the accessory models applied to players by #VariousTypes more stylishly animated, no hard-coding required.
The Poison ability, which inflicts a configurable array of status effects on melee attacks
The Cold Blooded ability afflicts the owner with a configurable set of status effects when within biomes matching various criteria.
Webspinner allows the user to throw blocks wherever they are looking, with a host of configurable details.
Rending deals extra damage to a random piece of armour on victims of melee attacks, or knocking them off entirely if they are unbreakable.
I've finally gotten back to working on #VariousTypes recently and that means a slew of new configurable abilities! Here's a peek at some of the spicier ones.
New beta version of #VariousTypes is now available! Featuring a crafting recipe, multiplayer bugfixes, and a host of new abilities!
