Sigh! So although my pack had been approved by the #Curseforge moderators I apparently hadn't actually set it to release so it wasn't appearing on the search and couldn't be installed by the app.

I've fixed that now and it's appearing on both and installable via website and app.

And because I can, because it's fun and because I want to.. I'm also adding some end game materials that are REALLY REALLY OP but also REALLY REALLY REALLY expensive.

At the moment it uses blocks of other mods end game materials, get melted into an alloy with super heated crucibles then compressed into a single ingot of "neutronium" degenerate "Nuclear pasta" matter. I'm just tweaking the recipes and stats.

So I now have 4 different blocks of meat that use vanilla meats as a place holder. It doesn't make sense that a giant Steve floating in the void would be filled with blocks of Beef, Pork, Chicken and Rotten Flesh. I can turn the three edible blocks into their cooked varieties and then unpack them into 9 edible items (Steak, Cooked pork and roast chicken)

However I'm creating some new models for Grey Matter (brain), muscle flesh, offal, and "foul flesh" .. ie inedible parts. Just creating some new textures to go with.

So they'll have the same food properties as some of the vanilla meats and foul flesh will have a recipe to convert to rotten flesh.

Creating my own mods is so much fun... even IF I am encouraging casual cannibalism XD

for sh*ts and giggles (and legitimate testing purposes of course) I started playing through my SkyBloke pack from the start, testing the quests (a few issues) and my new blocks.

Currently it only has the one generic "meat block" but I plan to add... erm... "different meats" for inside his body. I need to tweak the textures and perhaps adjust the recipes a little. I am very pleased with the basic block coding. It sounds decidedly "squelchy" when you walk and mine it out ;D I really need to figure out some means to do blood splatter :D haha

Yes, you do get a heck of a lot of raw meat food and a lot of bone blocks for bone meal. But it's not too over balanced. Wool is of limited use, meat is just food, and bone meal just replaces the other plant growing options (watering cans, twerk to grow etc) which I've since disabled/removed.

So, I'm living in his Skull XD he no longer resembles a giant corpse in the sky but a rather desirable des-res in the heavens... just excuse the smell of rotting flesh :D

hehe

Sure it gives you loads of food and access to bonemeal off the bat but in nodded skyblock... sorry... skybloke those things aren't hard to come by. All you really have that's useful is the tree and perhaps some wool for a bed (or 1000 beds xd) but otherwise useless.

You still need to sift for dirt and stone and then go down the normal route of making your ores Ex Nihilo (or Ex Deorum in this pack)

I mean, I could change him to a giant zombie and make all the "meat" rotten flesh blocks.. somehow that feels more icky than carving a home out of a giants skull and harvesting his flesh for food and bones for fertiliser...

... wait? I've turned to the dark side haven't I?

XD
