Better Agriculture is a companion mod for Forestry and Pam's Harvestcraft, it adds 40 new animals to Minecraft, 10 each of cows, pigs, sheep and chickens, all different breeds and colours. Also included is farming based blocks, armor and decor so now you can build your perfect farm! In a modpack with forestry and pams harvestcraft, you can now get the full farming experience.

Better Agriculture (BA) is a mod I devised a couple of years ago, but I'm an artist, not a coder so was unable to make it. I recently found someone willing to code the mod for me and my dream is slowly becoming reality. Its still in very early alpha, and has a lot of bugs, but the mobs work well as they are. There is a lot planned for the mod, advanced breeding, unique drops, maybe even different sexes, and lots more species of animals and blocks. Im intending to keep up with textures for it, and make them as I add things to the mod, but my first version will be complete for the mod as it stands now.

I love artwork you done by the spoiler.. sadly I am running MC v1.10.2 and the patch will not work on it. Rather odd the different pixels view. So thrilled when I found BDCrafts for all the mods I run but some are not up to date. SO goes my questions.. no pressure but asking.

* When is the next update coming?
* Will this patch be updated to v10.2 & v1.11+?
* In addition to x512 will there be x32, x64, x128 and higher (course already at x512)?

Thank you for your work thus far! Keep it up for art has many formats as there are people's opinions ;D (hobby artist)

This is the 1.10.2 patch, when you say it doesnt work, what happens when you try to use it?
The mod isnt in 1.11 yet, so the patch will come when that does, if the 1.10 patch doesnt work on it.
Ive been testing it in 1.10 and it works fine for me.

There will also be different sizes for it, once i work out how to do it.

I am happy that you replied and I have seen your work in other mods, awesome! I am also happy to find out about this site! Wish I knew back in v7.10! Having all the textures the same is VERY VERY Nice, EXTREMELY COOL! It has been to easy to pick out different mods because of that texture factor. Why I am crossing my finger for BA too, as I played it v8.0 (totally skipped v9's). Well onto the list before I lose my focus again!

Found the problem but still having lagginess and few other minor details. Took all day to figure it out with only 2hr break and finally a night's sleep (6hrs for me) before I do wipe out MC and start over (what a pain too). LoL!

I only have 1 saved game at the start of all this so made another for testing and panning out the problem. Some reason the new update on JourneyMap being an arse to my system. So did back date JourneyMap to 5.2.4 and I did remove ISM-1.5.0 MC-1.10.2 (Instant Structure Mod) as it was overloading to the extreme lag.

-Continued Minor Issues-
* Still lag as the non-hostile mobs in that they jerk around from time to time, especially in combat.
* Not really noticing any new types of the BA creatures but when do its all single shade color skins.
* Rock Slate Ore - still seemingly not been updated to BD style look normal MC pixels or its because of the texture x64 vs x512 unsure about that though.

Ugh, I know you need what is below, just hope no snoops or hacks poke at me for anything as I don't have much.. sigh but below you can see I do not have much in mods as I don't need to go over board to have fun.

I suspect your lagging because your pc specs arnt great, and a 512 texture pack needs a lot of ram. You also have quite a few mods installed, the more mods you have, and the more hd textures you use, the more of a strain it is on your pc.

Slate ore has been textured, not sure why its not working for you, i will have a look when i do the next update.

The spawn levels can be adjusted in the configs. In a future update i intend to add a farm to villages, where you will be able to find the various breeds spawning. For now, all breeds spawn on the farmland biome, so try searching for one of those.

By biblo, i assume you mean bibliocraft, when i checked a few days ago there was still no update, but i understand there is one coming. Im waiting for it myself.

Even the best pc would struggle with lots of textures and a 512 patch. Ur cpu is a bit meh, kinda slow. Minecraft 1.10 isnt the best at using what its got to work with anyway, so a combo of those things leads to lag.
As for the slate, it may just be i got the file name wrong when i made it, thats enough for it to not work. Like i said, will fix it for next update.
I can tell you how to look yourself if you like?

wait, I am going to say this I AM A TRUE DUMB BLONDE.. well didn't notice or realize it for I did put all of PureBDcraft into resources and had them working. Just now, I blinked and wondered where is BA resource? I know I put in the folder for it. Checked, yeah it's there but not showing up. I now know why.. x64 will not show x512 resource textures or anything above x64. Will x32 but no thanks.

So so sorry for all the troubles here. It will show up fine for your system but will not for mine. So just have to wait for and if the team/individual do all the texture version packs.

greatly humbled
Itty
