Re: Ramp-up Difficulty in Better-Than-Wolves

This is something that has always bothered me about survival games in general not just BTW. You seem to always have an inverted difficulty curve where the game is hardest at the beginning and then difficulty drops off quickly as you progress. This is compounded by the fact that the better you do in ...

Re: Shaders with BTW?

As a general rule BTW is incompatible with all other mods and modpacks.

There are however dedicated addons for BTW. As far as shaders I don't know.

Re: What exactly does vanilla Hardcore change abt the BTW experience?

Better than wolves is designed in a way that it WILL KILL YOU if you mess up. Most people mess up on occasion and having your entire world deleted seems unnecessarily harsh. On the other hand in old minecraft there was almost no consequence to death, you would just respawn at your bed. Hardcore spaw...

Hey Dawn! I like to see the dev diaries coming back. I agree with most of what you said about the animageddon and vegehenna.

Re: Fire aspect is an actively detrimental enchantment

Right now you're gambling for little profit or big profit, that's a weird gambling mechanic. I don't think this is an accurate description. You are spending experience and time and some amount of material for the weapon. Then if you get a bad enchant you might not consider that a little profit at a...

Re: Extreme Scarcity

The grass idea was pretty simple. Grass gets two stages. Call them patchy and lush. Lush grass can spread patchy grass to nearby tiles like normal. (this would be slower than in current BTW) Patchy grass grows into lush grass over time. Animals prefer lush grass and when they eat revert it to patchy...

I know your point here is not entirely related to my mod, but I'd like to address how my changes impact (early game) caving. Because I think caving with my mod is much more dangerous and scary, even in the top strata. While caving you'll inevitably have some encounters with hostile mobs, most notab...

Early Game Difficulty and Hardcore Spawns

Now having played a fair bit of the post AAHHHHH early game I feel fairly confident in saying that the current balance is just a bit too punishing for me to enjoy. The easy possibility of instant death combined with how punishing a hadcore spawn puts me off wanting to play more. Given that I tend to...

Subforum Rules

1. Thoughts and feedback on the mod are totally ok.
2. Avoid whining or ranting. Focus on providing reasoned arguments why something should be other than what it is.
3. Asking for others to make an addon to fix your issue or implement your idea is prohibited. They will volunteer if they want to.

Re: A Message For The Community

It isn't offtopic. Minecraft (at least early versions) depends a lot on the wiki. Having access to early versions without a simple way to see the wiki is like having half of the game. Also, People talking about how they started to play the mod like 10 years ago looks more offtopic to me. But of cou...
