[Mod] Glowing letters A-Z + 0-9 FINAL VERSION[1.0] [neon]

[webdesigner97]

With this mod, you can easily write the names of shops, cities, etc!



This mod lets you place letters A to Z and numbers 0-9 on every type of wall. The crafting recipes are based on Braille:

Screenshot from the german Wikipedia-article about Braille, "oder" means "or"!

Instead of the "dots", you have to use "neontubes", which can be crafted with:

Then you just need to place the neontubes in the first two columns of the crafting grid, like the dots are placed on the screenshot.
When you need to craft the numbers, you need to place the tubes just like on the screenshot, but this time with glass in lower right corner of the crafting grid! This is because Braille uses the same Arrangement for the numbers as for the letters.

looks cool

i like how the alphabet mod uses braille as the crafts, are you going to do the same?:

Braille would be cool for the crafting recipes, cause when you try to use the shape of a letter, it will overlap wth other letters, e.g. D and O....
Otherwise people need to learn Braille, when they want to use this mod.........
I'll do my best! Thx for your reply!

Use a file hoster like http://ompldr.org... not really trusting your site.
Moved anyway.

thx for moving withput request

Well I'll trust a site called "your-filehosting" more than a site like "ompldr" with the subtitles "made in taiwan", "powered by 967 horny turkeys".....

+10 for github.com - (as per above, plus.. tracks version history, allows other people to fork and request merges, viewing your code online, etc, etc)

I'l try Github...

Is this free? I'm not going to pay for it....

[cornernote]

yep, 100% free as long as you dont want private projects, which you don't for minetest

[webdesigner97]

I need to be honest: This is too complicated for me....
What about Dropbox? Do you trust it?

[cornernote]

dropbox is fine

come on IRC and i'll be happy to help with git. if you're using windows then it's super easy

Cool, this is a great mod.

Could the blocks be oriented so that you don't see the letters on the lateral side? or is this too hard and/or not your project?

[webdesigner97]

I'm going to change the nodes, so that the letters are only shown on the front. As soon as I've got time, I'll contimue this mod. thx for your reply

[webdesigner97]

So, hope I did everything right: Here's the dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/a81jjmchce7dk6q/7F_SFDGDQx

The screenshoots do not work, and also you should add a version that adds recipes that can be used by the workbench mod

-Workbench? I had to create 36 new crafting recipes.............. but how should the crafting recipes look like?

For the workbench one, you can have 9 x 9 grids, so it could look like the real letter

Omploader lets you see how many people downloaded your mod and from which referring link. I haven't found a way to do this on github.

Also if it's powered by 968 horny turkeys I'd call that "BONUS!"

However there have been times that omploader is down, whereas github is almost never down.
