Hello was wondering if anyone would be able to Sphax my mod! I love Sphax and use it with my mod already however the textures are vanilla based so they don't really fit! Which is disappointing! It isn't a mainstream mod but it is growing in popularity with over 100 downloads! So if someone could PLEASE do a sphaxation of my mod that would be AWESOME!!!!!
128x is preferred but not required!

Looks like a lot of work has gone into your mod. What is its aim? Just to add niceties here and there?

For the most part yes. A bunch of new arrows, food, armor, mob drops, bows, it mainly focuses on making some resources not so useless (lapis) as well as add a more dynamic use to the current bow and the two new ones I created (one of which is made literally ONLY for servers/co-op as it shoots only HEALING arrows, and has its own healing enchant!

I would certainly love it! Would love a bit more notoriety on the MinecraftForums too but one can only dream!

Well I think people are more interested in mods that try and do something specific, rather then just add bits and bobs here and there. Buildcraft adds a way to pipe your materials. Industrialcraft adds more efficient ways to process materials, mystcraft adds unique dimensions, railcraft completely overhauls the rails as well as provides some really cool utilities like tanks.
I think it's about finding your niche.

Yeah that is kinda what I did and the mod (to its namesake) is focused around bows and arrows. But I felt like adding here and there stuff because why not!
EDIT: "(to its namesake)" A fletcher (incase you were unaware) is someone who makes bows and arrows!

I did not know that
Maybe go a bit further and have the bows created with their own custom bench, where you can tighten the string depending on the type of string. You can have different materials for the bow itself, which have different properties. Just go all out. I think that would be really cool. Of course don't stop there... Have different arrow heads, ends, and sticks.
The more specialized it is, the more interesting the mod becomes

That's a petty good idea I actually did the arrow suggestion though....I do like the option of making the bows stronger with different materials. The mod forum actually has a complete list of features. Including all the arrow types and arrow enhancements!

Hmm... I'll have to check that out.

I see now. I didn't really look into everything the first time I went there. I think it would be cool to have arrows that you can pull out of enemies too, which would fall in line with further arrow customization like obsidian arrows or something. Arrows that cause damage over time also comes to mind.
I take these ideas from mods like railcraft with its rolling machine and Tinkers construct with its blueprints. Both these mods really go all the way with the customization aspects, which in turn results in a more interesting and entertaining experience
