Likeaboss
Version: 2.4.0
Description
Description
This mod occasionally turns some monsters into a stronger version, boss-like. Its main purpose is to add a little diversity (and difficulty) to the combat aspect of the game.
Technically every monster spawning naturally in your world has a chance to become a boss, which hits harder, has more hit points and can possesses some immunities and abilities. Each boss can also have its own drop table. Of course all of this is configurable.
Moreover, they can notify you of their presence by sending you a message when you hit them, when they hit you, or after a certain amount of time if you're close enough. To make them distinguishable they can also have a flaming effect around them (the one used by mob spawners).
Almost everything is configurable, and if it isn't yet, it soon will be (at least I try)! (✿◠‿◠)
Configuration files
Configuration files
Likeaboss comes with different configuration files that are automatically generated with default values as an example.
- config.yml
This file controls global values that doesn't fit in other files; such as commands parameters, messages, state of the anti-grinding protection, and internal task intervals.
- equipments.yml
This is where you create equipments for your bosses. Any name can be used, they will be used as identifiers latter. When you create an equipment you'll have to provide a type (helmet, chestplate, leggings, boots or weapon) and a material ID. You also have the possibility to set a drop chance and to add multiple enchantments.
- abilities.yml
This one allows you to create different abilities for your bosses, like for equipments any name can be used. When you create an ability you'll have to provide certain fields depending on its type, the default file contains all available abilities with their needed parameters. You can create more than one ability per type as long as the name is different.
- bosses.yml
This one allows you to create different bosses. Any name can be used, this allows you to create multiple bosses per entity type. You can assign any created ability and equipment to any boss, you can also specify an assignation chance for each of the equipments and abilities. Bosses can also have their own drop table and immunities.
- worldname.yml
World files are generated only if the previous ones aren't, but you can create them yourself. This is where you add bosses to a world. You can also add some global abilities, immunities (overridden by bosses') and drops that will be used by each boss on this world.

GummieBear47 Apr 28, 2013 at 20:16 UTC - 0 likesI've been searching for a plugin that allows mobs to spawn naturally with names defined in the config per animal. So cows for example have a percent chance of spawning with a random name defined in the cow section of the configuration. If you could implement this, I would love you. If you could make it as a side plugin, I would love you. If you could let me know of a plugin that already does this, I would make love to you on your doorstep.

The mod folder still had the old world subfolders. I deleted the whole thing and reloaded the mod and bang...all is well in the world. Thanks for your patience.

It works perfectly for 1.5.1, there is nothing to update. There probably is an incompatibility with another mod.

mdp123 Apr 23, 2013 at 18:19 UTC - 0 likesAny chance this is going to get updated soon for 1.5.1? It doesnt want to let me spawn boss's now (on the latest dev build, but hasn't for awhile with the dev builds). Are others able to spawn bosses with the current 1.5.1 dev builds?

It's explained there: worldname.yml
The colon separates the base ID from the extra ID. Some items require an extra "ID" to be fully defined, such as pink dye, jungle log, etc. More information there: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Data_values. For example 35:2 defines a blue wool block. A colon was chosen for consistency sake, many mods use a colon to separate those two values.
The next value is the drop chance (20% in your example, decimal numbers can be used, hence the decimal mark), then the last two represent the minimal and the maximal amount.
