Baby Animals Mod

I found this great and very cute mod that puts little baby animals in your minecraft world. It's super easy to install.

You can visit the original site here: Baby Animals.

Here is my quick install tut:

Make sure you make backups of your files and exit entirely out of Minecraft before installing this mod.

You will need the ModLoader v5 already installed (I explain how to do that in the Millénaire NPC Village mod tutorial).

You'll also want the Audiomod. It isn't critical but it does add to the mod. The instructions for the audio mod are in the download but they are a little complex. I was careful to only add files and folders not replace them as the instructions stated. It worked. Maybe the way they said would have worked too but I wasn't willing to risk wrecking my other mods.

Download the BabyAnimalsv17.zip and wolfpup.class.  Open Baby Animals with 7zip and drag the wolfpup.class into it, then close 7zip. Next drag and drop BabyAnimals_v1_7 into the C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\mods folder (don't extract). That's it.

I want to say thanx to the makers of these mods. They really enhance the game.

Important: At this time, this mod doesn't work with the The Millénaire mod. It will mess it up.

Minecraft Powered Rail

I thought I would post about the best way I've found to use powered rail so far.


There are stations all over Apvia to save walking time rail has become really important.


To start: this is the basic starter booster I have been using. It is a chest to hold minecarts, a block and switch and 5 powered rails (which minecraft wiki says gives the biggest boost).

Below are examples of  two way powered boosters (they'll boost a cart traveling either direction. The one on the right uses switches that turn power on when a cart runs over them. The one on the left is permenantly on by way of a redstone torch.

Below is an illustration of how a permanently running station works. The cart is always moving between the ends of the line.

I added two redstone torches per booster because sometimes the cart will stop. I'm not sure if it's a bug or I'm doing something wrong. Either way two torches fixes the problem

There is a loading platform where travelers can get in and out of the carts with a right click. Users simply wait at the station for the train to arrive and get off wherever it is they want to go. You can have many platforms and make the lines as long or short as you want or even make it go in a circle. I'm not sure if this is too disruptive on a server though since minecarts tend to use up a lot of clock cycles.

Mobs will, however, gum up the works on occasion. I'm waiting for the first creeper to arrive on a platform.

Thanx for following :)
