Hodge-Podge age and future Raol's mods
Thu, 12/31/2020 - 13:26 (edited)

I've already mentioned this on the Modular Expansion topic, but now I want to make a separate topic for it.

After the upcoming RaolCraft Omega update (2.2, which will add new structures, minibosses, totems, gems, decorative blocks and more), there won't be another cycle of updates. Instead, a long series of Hodge-Podge III will begin.

Hodge-Podge III is the sequel of a mod by Eonaut. Right now it only includes 3 dimensions and one boss, while the original mod was a lot bigger. I decided to focus on Hodge-Podge for a bit so I will quickly add all the missing dimensions and bosses (and a lot of bonus content). Like in the times when there only was RaolCraft, except now there will only be Hodge-Podge.

I want to quickly add the missing content because it's kinda sad to see it in this state, and also because I want to integrate the lore from Hodge-Podge with the one from RaolCraft, but I can't really until it's complete.

This doesn't mean the other mods are discontinued though. At the end of the Hodge-Podge age, all my other mods will get a huge update (and, if MCreator 1.9.1 is released in the Hodge-Podge age, I will do a bonus update for RaolCraft just for the ore dictionary XD). This series of updates actually won't be too long, maybe it will just consist of something like 4 updates.

Actually, there also is another reason: I want to release new mods. And before start working on them, I want all the others to be complete.

And what are those new mods?

 

Well, the first one will be a sci-fi mod. Yes, after all those magic or mining mods, finally a futuristic mod XD. It won't be a "tech" mod though. There already is Pyromancy for automation. It will be a futuristic adventure mod (and yes, I got the idea for it from Trailblazer, but it will be different).

It will be a mod about space, antimatter, alternate universes, genetics, clones, time travel and much more. It will have many references from my other mods and its lore will be integrated with them.

It will actually mainly focus on space exploration and on another alternate universe made of antimatter, which is very similar to the regular minecraft universe except for some differences (the war between light and darkness never happened there for example).

There will be meteorites, armors that adapt to your playstyle, spaceships, alien invasions, jetpacks, helpful AIs and much more!

Here's an image of what could the villains look like (this is just a concept and these characters may or may not be in the mod):

Scifi bad guys

(by me)

the bad boys

(by Dansamy)

From left to right, they are:

  • An alien sciencist
  • Your clone
  • A mysterious time traveler
  • An evil alien colonizer from an antimatter universe
  • The son of the antimatter alternative of a familiar face
  • A space pirate
  • An evil AI (it's the creeper hologram on the table)

Each of these villains would have his goals and interests, and some might even betray their leader or eventually team up with the player. It's not that solid of an alliance after all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

I have many ideas for it, but I still have to decide its name (what about Event Horizon)?

 

I also want to release a littler mod (littler than Pyromancy). I won't tell you its theme, bit I will let you guess it. It will be called "The Ultimate Plan". If you are minecrafty enough, you'll know ;)

EDIT (01/01/2020): The Ultimate Plan isn't going to be released soon. For those of you who want to try an early alpha of it, here is the download: https://mcreator.net/forum/55916/ultimate-plan-official-topic-early-download

EDIT (04/28/2020): The Ultimate Plan is now officially released!! Link here: https://mcreator.net/modification/58658/ultimate-plan

EDIT (12/28/2020): Event Horizon got its own topic, all future announcements will be there: https://mcreator.net/forum/69316/event-horizon-official-topic

EDIT (12/31/2020): Event Horizon is now released, check it out: https://mcreator.net/modification/69495/event-horizon

Since the RaolCraft…
Thu, 09/26/2019 - 18:34

Since the RaolCraft workspace is too slow to work with, I will start making the next update for Hodge-Podge in the while

This doesn't mean the update won't be released, it is only postponed until I can find a solution

After RaolCraft Omega 2.2 …
Thu, 11/14/2019 - 14:42

After RaolCraft Omega 2.2 (which will be called "The Return of RaolCraft" and should be released this week), Hodge-Podge will finally get its missing dimension.

Each new update will either add a new dimension or a new boss, so, before 2020, it will finally be complete :D

If you want I could also make a bonus update just after the end of the Hodge-Podge age that adds an endless dungeon dimension where you can go to collect experience and loot.

Anyway, talking about the upcoming mods:

 

I still have to choose a name for the space one. I wrote many ideas about the mechanics, the mobs, the planets, etc. in the notes, but I still have to think about its name XD

Ideas are welcome :)

Anyway, the mod will be divided in chapters. The first chapter will be about going to the Moon (so you'll have to wait a bit for antimatter and time travel :( ).

 

Since it seems nobody tried to guess the theme of the Ultimate Plan, you will discover it when it will be released. I already planned everything for it, including its release date. It will be a little mod, bigger than a Modular Expansion module but littler than Pyromancy :)

I'm sorry that I've been…

I'm sorry that I've been quite inactive recently, but I've been very busy. Today my two favourite games (Minecraft and Hearthstone) got two major updates and I couldn't try neither of them XD (Minecraft got 1.15, Buzzy Bees, while Hearthstone got a new expansion, Descent of Dragons).

Anyway, talking about dragons, I decided I will finally reveal the theme of the Ultimate Plan. It will be about dragons. The Ultimate Plan was an old idea that Mojang had for making Endermites useful (and that involved Dragon Eggs). The idea was only mentioned once and got scrapped (or maybe just postponed, who knows XD).

Anyway, this mod will finally make you tame your own baby Enderdragons. And how is a secret I will reveal later :P

Anyway, the mod should be released in January 2020 (after some Hodge-Podge updates). Maybe in January 1st :)
