Alright so after tons of failed attempts at making nether trees that grow when a nether chunk is generated, I gave up and will request it instead! basically a nether tree looks exactly like regular trees. It uses the redwood texture as wood, but instead of leaves it has glowstone. Now these nether trees should spawn in the nether naturally, quite frequently so there is enough wood. Now the awesome part would be that there should be another type of sapling (I know this can be made, just with another data value) that will drop from the glowstone (or some other way to get it) and it should be able to be placed on netherrack (if thats possible??) and grow even in complete darkness (again is that possible?) but even if it's not possible just behave like a regular tree. Would be awesome if this could be made!
eh have you tried to code in *dead wood*. the trees you would find in deserts. maybe they would work. but theres gotta be a way to get trees in nether..
Naw for the my upcoming server I need to have real trees in the nether that get generated with all the other stuff inside the nether, so when it's created. We neeed wood xD
oh, you want a nether map generator with trees. difficult indeed. eh an idea... instead of generating it. create a plugin in which when you place a plank it would grow a tree. other then that im not sure how to help.
How do they get the plank if there isn't any wood? Maybe a little background, i need this because we will have a faction which it's homeworld will be the nether Thats why they need trees ^^
you create the nether. go into the nether with planks and place in the ground. then a tree should grow on top
I can do that yeah, but people that spawn when they join for the first time cant Or do i think i can just run around forever placing planks XD
Hmm you could replace netherrack by dirt at y-1 of the tree, and after the tree generation, replace dirt by netherrack in a "forest generator" plugin ?
I'm currently playing with this a bit. Though I'm giving the nether trees a different appearance, and I'm using the dead shrub as the sapling. I'll probably have at least a pre-release version and some screen shots up later today.
Well this is my first attempt: But it looks too much like a retarded lamp post. So, I'm brainstorming new designs.
It does kinda Let me get a screenshot up ^^ Ok @nisovin here were our design ideas ^^ View attachment 4351 It was supposed to look a bit like a mushroom View attachment 4352 removed a few logs so there isnt too much wood on it View attachment 4353 top view Maybe u could do something like that? EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
I like this idea, and the in-progress stuff seems interesting, but I'd like to see screenshots made with the default texture pack.
I agree. Although I really do love the bordercraft tex pack, its got the most hideous glow-stone texture I've ever seen.
i for one support this idea, it would bring much more to the nether, and more servers might use it because of this!
No seriously stick with the lampost at least for right now. I want at least the lampost. Could you do the lampost and then update it later? Anyone? I will shower you with. EDIT+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Not enough? How about
