Custom Client ? ... Weapons

[heylookitskyle]

I have heard something before about a HeroCraft client, will this ever happen?

If so I believe something like this would be perfect for HeroCraft. It's a Medieval style weapon mod, so Battleaxes, spears, crossbows, ect ect.
"Balkon's Weapon Mod"

Would this even be possible? What about with SproutCraft? @Sleaker @Kainzo

Just imagine...
Rangers with crossbows and poison darts
Dreadknights with battleaxes
Paladins with warhammers
Dragoons with spears

Sounds cool, can't wait to hear about ideas on how to implement this.

Theifs/Assassins with throwing knives?

Current impossibilities

• Applying armor reductions
• Throwing items (non-projectiles can't be thrown)
• Alternative Movement types (Sliding, Wall climbing, etc)
• Altering damage based on current movement type (while jumping)
• Detecting when a player is triggering an MC critical hit
• Awarding XP for Alchemy/Furnace creation
• Detecting when a player lands without taking fall-damage.
• Region-specific Buffs/Debuffs
• Custom Items/Blocks
• Adjusting Wolf damage/taming etc (too many bugs in the server)
• Dual-casting or using more than 1 skill at a time that has a warmup.
• Detecting/dealing with Potion use.
• Changing built-in animations or creating new ones. (We can use some of what MC already has though)

Yes it's possible eventually but we aren't going to force custom clients on people until they are actually stable and good. Spoutcraft is still in pretty heavy development.

I am pretty sure HC staff has kinda wanted to do this for a long time, yet they want to wait till Notch/Minecraft gets like Mod Support or something i dont exactly remember.

We aren't waiting for mod support in vanilla. We're more waiting for Spout to progress further and get much better than it currently is.

Okay I didnt exactly remember, thanks for clearification on the subject .

It would be cool if servers were able to force people to use certain texturepacks and jars. That would also prevent xraying and other hacks.

@Sleaker
How far along is Spout in terms of "stable"? Seems interesting.

It would be cool if when you try to log onto a server it downloads all the mods you need for the server into your Minecraft automatically.

Random noob question: Will someone actually need minecraft to run spoutcraft? (Except for the username and password obviosuly)

 

[agentjwall]

I've been waiting for this for a long time, Hope SC gets stable soon!

Dream Setup: Longbow-Ranger with questionable tunes playing in the background <.<

This is what Spout aims to achieve
