Ever died only for the server to be like "Player [insert name here] died"? Well this mod aims to fill some of those gaps in the death message list.


Features:

Death mesages for:

  • drowning
  • suicide (/kill)
  • deadly food
  • freezing
  • getting crushed (by falling blocks)
  • spikes
  • Dehydration (Hydrate Or Diedrate)
  • Some projectile related death messages

 

And an API for modders to more easily add their own death messages.

FatRefrigerator, that means you likely don't have latest version of HoD and/or this mod. (HoD method changed at some point and so did the point I "bind" on to reflect that)

LadyWYT, fixed in source will take it with in the next release. (picture itself will probably remain incorrect, image editing is such a pain)

TheInsanityGod I see a spelling error in your picture there, regarding one of the freezing deaths. It reads "Player understimated the cold" but I'm pretty sure you meant "Player underestimated the cold" 😁

💬 FatRefrigerator, Sep 9th at 10:30 PM

With HoD loaded, it throws an error about it and BDM not "binding" properly.

Magmabot16, no clue if the old version works on 1.21 but I did just release a new version for 1.21  

💬 Magmabit16, Aug 30th at 8:56 AM

Has anyone tested this in 1.21 yet?

add a new death message for death by a stone that a player threw (example death message: "(player) thought he was doing a pillow fight"

💬 TheInsanityGod , Jan 27th at 4:36 PM

Handsomejack if it's not on the list you may safely assume it's not included :P
(I'll put it on my todo list)

💬 Handsomejack, Jan 27th at 1:32 AM

Is death by spikes included ?

💬 TheInsanityGod , Jan 21st at 9:03 PM

TheSkreeBat, I don't know about other modders but for me it's because AI generated art looks a million times better then whetever I could produce myself (and probably partially because I'm bad at it, making art is something I do not enjoy).

💬 TheSkreeBat, Jan 21st at 8:27 PM

why is every other modder on here using AI?? :/

💬 TheInsanityGod , Jan 19th at 9:32 PM

I hit my ChatGPT image creation limit before reaching something I was satisfied with :P
(though I suppose I could always just make a screenshot of a chatbox filled with my own death mesages)

💬 MRGOOSE, Jan 19th at 9:21 PM

you should add a picture so the mod is more noticable.
