JTK222

Hey so I'm currently in need of money, so if you wanna commission me for a Minecraft mod, just DM me with details. Any loader, any version after 1.18

P.s. A lot of this is negative, but I still think that Hytale is an amazing game, even if it still has a long way to go. And while I want to continue modding it, I'll restrict my interactions to the MC Modders that also do Hytale, avoiding Hytale only Modders.

5/5
6. The reliance & acceptance of AI has lead to the lack of respect among modders which I know from MC, because there are no rules in war, love and AI.
7. The amount of AI slop is killing my entire motivation to browse for mods.

4/5
5. There are things I'd like to do, but I lack the artistic skills for them + I know that other modders would just decompile my mod, steal the tech and say they made it. I'd be fine with teaching people, but not with the current attitude so many Hytale "modders" have right now.

3/?
4. My brain just doesn't work with "artist first" development approaches, I think in logic, not in "ouh fancy gui to click together a new feature". Sure it's optional, but with a lack of documentation it's hard to not use these. I also don't like Unity nor Unreal for these reasons.

2/?
3. Personally my motivation for modding Minecraft skyrocketed, while I am loosing interest in Hytale. It just doesn't yet feel unique enough from MC, and I really don't like certain design decisions.

It's been 14 days since Hytale released, here's my conclusion so far:
1. A decent part of the modding community is vile, they'll rip other mods, make minor changes and re-release as their own.
2. My Minecraft mod downloads doubled since the release.

The amount of AI Slop for Hytale really ruins all my motivation to even browser mods :( It's a shame modding has come to this point, and imo an even bigger shame that Curseforge is so tolerant of AI slop...

There is a Linux and even MacOS download
Though linux is just flatpack afaik

Twitch Twitch is the world

I just went live, streaming Hytale Mod Dev!
And answering questions: www.twitch.tv/jtk222

Small change, I'll start earlier. Might be a few minutes post launch.
Will see

Twitch Twitch is the world

I haven't streamed in ages 👀
I'll livestream some development of my Borders & Nations mod for #Hytale tomorrow, approx 1-2 hours after release.
Depends on how quickly I manage to return from work.
Livestream will be on www.twitch.tv/jtk222
I'll also answer questions regarding modding the game.

The important question, did you use a creator code? And even more important, was it mine?! 👀 /jk

Thanks at @curseforge.com for giving me the opportunity.
I'll try to create numerous utilities for servers, mostly targeting the smaller communities that don't have huge investments behind them.

Oh and btw, I got the creator code "BRAZIER" if you want to support me while buying the game ^^

Notification banner containing the text: "You don'T have permissions to build here" "Ay mate! Ya can't do that here!"

It's time for me to also provide a tiny sneak peak at what I've been working on in #Hytale 👀

YouTube video by tr7zw Bad Apple!! played on Hytale blocks

I was given the opportunity, so I made the best out of it! I'll have 3 mods available on @curseforge.com
for @hytale.bsky.social right at launch! Thank you so much for giving me this chance!
And of course I had to honor the tradition: youtu.be/VtNP3frSgu4
#hytalegameplay #hytalenews

I've been working on 'Gone Fishing', a @hytale.bsky.social mod adding fishing to the game.

With models/art by my lovely fiancée @shynieke.nl

It will be available day one on @curseforge.com

Creator code SHY

An assortment of paintings from the Dark Paintings mod, now available in Hytale!

So happy that I was able to port one of my favorite mods to @hytale.bsky.social! Pixel Paintings and at least 10 of my other mods will be available for #Hytale on @curseforge.com DAY ONE!

Creator code DARK

Brazier Modding Logo (A brazier with armored bird feet for it's legs. A woven wreath around it, with a few leaves sprinkled on top. And a banner at the top spelling "Brazier Modding" and a second banner at the bottom spelling "Code: BRAZIER"

I got accepted into Hytales affiliate program! 🥳
Now I am actually forced to mod it. 😅
If you haven't bought the game yet, but are considering to, and want to support me a bit, feel free to use the code "BRAZIER" when buying the game ^^

Minecraft Screenshot, it's night and snowing. A small hut with a snow covered roof is built on the left. A snowy birch forest with a snow covered mountain in the background on the right. Additionally on the bottom right, the first version of the new Brazier Modding Logo.

I wish everyone merry and jolly holidays, no matter what you're celebrating or if you're celebrating. Enjoy the time!

I see someone participate into "How to destroy our product" course for CEOs. To bad it's been a good time. Time to dig out the old Internet Explorer installer.

• I checked all modding communities I am in, you didn't ask about feedback on those standards in any of them.

Idk how you can try to establish community standards, without involving the community, those standards are for.
Rename them to something like "Our checklist", fix them, and I am fine.

• I am not fond of my images and descriptions being reposted on another website,
however Modrinth's TOS allows it, so I got to live with that.
• Your site doesn't have a noindex meta tag on project pages,
meaning that it directly competes with Modrinth for SEO.
2/?

I am sorry if I seem rude, that isn't my intention.

However, I am annoyed at this:
• The score is designed in such a way, that a low score seems like something bad
• The standards seem like something official, generally agreed upon
• Additionally, some of them don't seem to work correctly

Like, it's not a standard for a mod to be open source, even if some people wish it to be. Nor does it make sense to have images for a utility (unless you want those shiny 4k config file screenshots). Should I also be lying about categories only to have more than 1?

A list of "standards" for mods as defined by Modpackker: Has an icon Has more than 3 Minecraft versions Has more than 1 mod/plugin loader Has more than 1 image Has more than 1 category tag Has an open license Has been updated recently Has issue tracker Has a wiki page Has an official community Is open source

@modpackker.bsky.social
Hey, I am curious, who came up with those standards? And since when are those standards? I do really not appreciate my projects being slandered for not fulfilling any arbitrarily made up standards, which don't even make sense for some of my projects.

I ducking love this, great work and Idea!

Spending this Saturday at Pen & Paper convention, going to host a game, and spent the last 8 hours translating the important play material into German 🙃
I definitely underestimated the workload. Going to spend another 2-3 hours on it tomorrow. So much about my plans to work on Project Brazier....

A screenshot of the Project Brazier creative Tab for furniture blocks. There is plenty of chairs, tables, barrels and a few other things, all of them have a green plus to them.

#ProjectBrazier is approaching a point where we're thinking about hosting a closed alpha. If you want to play around with a partially broken mod and provide early feedback join our Discord (discord.brazier-modding.net) we'll soon post more information!
