AdventureCraft - Mob FOV Detection

[IBeAMashedPotato]

What texture pack is that? I love the chandeliers.

[RecipeForDisasta]

Your sneak level has increased to 61

[ipdnaeip]

I have three questions

can the mob see you throw a wall?

how long is the range of detection?

If it sees you, will it continue to follow you even if you are out of its range?

[MrMiketheripper]

When you go to make this all 1.8.1, might I suggest making hunger and xp toggleble?

[superorion64]

i just made a texture pack that makes zombies look like turets from portal

[superbob620]

deaf enemies

just like splinter cell

[CaptainKorhonen]

They should also be able to hear the player so that you can't just run towards them from behind without them knowing.

[TheCrazer666]

You should add critical damage to sneak attacks! lol

[tege01]

It should be possible to shoot the zombie in the head and the FOV decreases a little bit, But it will only work once or twice

[Jrezky]

i hate to be little johnny repeat but should you manage to escape the mobs LOS it should at least finish its final path until it stops moving. it would still be easy to avoid but less alien in behavior. another idea on top of the pathing thing could be added difficulty levels allowing different amounts of time for the mob to try and find you by moving around. though once the time is up they should return to their original position or patrol. metal gear solid is a prime example of what i mean.

[TheDaunter]

You should release it as a standalone mod once it's finished, and incorporated into AdventureCraft.

[RobZombieHFN]

Steve, next son of Big Boss?

[halomaster622]

lol you should make a portal turret skin for them

[TerranWTF]

You should make this mod multiplayer, work like 24/7 and do it NAOW!

[ThievingFox]

You should make all this happen when you crouch, but allow the zombie to "hear" your footsteps if you move near him without stealthing.

[NeedforAdventures]

Metal Gear Solid

[TerraformGames]

am i the only one that noticed that there are new lighting objects from the roof :D

[Kataclysm113]

@TerraformGames nope. those have been in the mod for a while now. they are just candleabras under chains.

[WAWBAMSHAHBAM]

make a bomb that you can throw like an egg

[kennyfattsoo]

Which there was a mod like this.. D:

[spongefan8]

@kennyfattsoo

...This IS a mod.. This is the demonstration of this feature.

[GaryDZ]

I can't wait for AC1.8.

[friedmutant]

Also, not all mobs should track by line of sight. In nature, animals use a variety of senses. Just look at sharks, for one good example. Perhaps creepers have psychic player-detection senses?

[friedmutant]

Really nice work! I hope you will add object permanence (Object_permanence on wikipedia) to the mobs, so they can at least track a player as well as a one year-old baby can. ;)

[10nicolaus]

they should look around

[MegaNico145]

Tactical Block Action

[Exone112]

@anyuwant1 Erhm, vanillas path-finding is rather dull. It's easy to hide from mobs, they can't go around two blocks if you're behind them.

[ThreeinoneJDD]

you needa set up a small lil addon that it can still "see" you for a second or so after you leave the FOV.. honestly would you just stop looking for someone the moment they get behind you? that way they will "search" for you for a second untill they loose interest (being dumb undead and such)

[Ilamarea]

That's a goodie! :D

Stealth stealth stealth stealth stealth!! :D

[ataraxic89]

@Ilamarea vihart?! :D

[Ilamarea]

@ataraxic89

wut wut wut? :D

[manadspaniel]

Now we need a hearing radius and some more interesting AI to fit in with this :D

[KaneinEncanto]

A hearing / smell radius wouldnt go amiss to compliment this. Great start though! :)

[MrFinnishdude]

i think zombies can smell you and they will find you behind the walls

[billshackles]

Once the zombie has detected you, he should make much more of an effort to find you.

[theDMgamer]

@billshackles zombies aren't that intelligent

[billshackles]

@theDMgamer They may be dumb, but they are hungry and persistent. They aren't going to just stop dead in their tracks when you leave their sight.

[iqandreas]

I'd hate to make Zombies any weaker than they already are, but would be most satisfied sneaking up behind creepers or skeletons.

[InfinitiesLimit]

This. Is. Brilliant.

[TheJacksterman]

Nice, Josh Woodward!

[Macfanize]

Notch watched this video :)

[Nathan36762]

♪There's a zombie in my dungeon♪

♪There's a zombie in my dungeon♪

[GrandLunarTheif]

To add on to what @FilmSnapper said, you should also have it so that they can detect walls and when a player left the FOV by moving behind the walls so that the mob will look for the player for a short while before going about it's own business

[PS3GAMEPWNERZ]

PLEASE have adventure craft for mac... :-/

[ebo1338]

wow..this was just dumb

[Enderfiction]

@ebo1338

Please explain why, because I'm a dumb and I find this offensive.

[Riowind]

Holy crap! I finally found this video again!!! THANK YOU.

[Dabednego]

Now's the time to break out your Solid Snake skins.

[aroze14]

You've been notched!!!

[midgetman9942]

This is awesome, but I don't like how once you leave it's field of vision it just stands there. If you have already been in it's field of vision or alerted it of your presence, it should continue to look around for you once you leave it's field of vision.

[giraffeman3705]

music????

[Shykaary]

I just don't stop to be amazed with your creations. You rock. Period.

[AdamUPN0w]

Needs to integrated into Minecraft.

[GeekGear]

Very nice. Keep the good work!

[NHBeiserJ]

You should also make an exclamation point appear above their heads when they spot you.

[SoNiC4000]

umm any link to the mod ^^ ?

[Raiden738]

T.T i <3 u

[midevele1]

notice how this is adventure craft, meaning he didn't do any of this, if you don't know what that is then google it, its called debug mode.

[Decimaegeminae]

@midevele1 He is the maker of adventurecraft.

[superpopify]

He just wanted a hug D:

[MrWarCookies]

Too easy but cool.

if they see you thy just walk to your position and stop. They dont follow you or anything.

[xMorgasm92]

That's very, very cool. I wish he would follow you for a bit longer before giving up though

[CronosDage]

Needs to still make the mob do a bit of roaming with the chance of it getting at an angle to find you, not just turning.

[ultraNewt]

zombie has a very short attention span

[ScrufffyJoe]

That is awesome, and Notch has noticed, really hope it gets put into vanilla!

[snipperbes]

Alzheimer, a serious disease. Even with zombies.

[Ralmut]

this is awesome!

[LoopuleasaIonut]

It needs a 'patrol' function and this would be perfect

[ThePighead10]

NOTCH

[Bloodshot021]

Make it go to your last known location if you hide behind something

[MrX13415]

maby if the zombie lost you ... he should look around to find you ...

[Deehle]

nice mod, but that makes the game too easy.

[mrLYLiX]

@Deehle its debug lines -.-

[Deehle]

@mrLYLiX i know about the lines.... BUT you can see the mob anyway and he can't see you, so it's unfair.

[FormerPigeon]

Notch Approves

[4thedragonking]

Awesome job, this throws the doors open for much more complicated interactions within MC. Hopefully it will be implemented in Vanilla MC but if not, this would make an amazing standalone mod. With some other modifications to mob AI, this could make MC combat much more interesting.

[KrouchKauai]

is this real?

[dumbassproductio1000]

ADD MORE GUNS PLZ!!!

[JeromeBeckett]

Freaking. Awesome.

[FilmSnapper]

You should make it so that once you leave his FOV, he walks to the place he last saw you at, instead of just sitting there.

[rod9as1]

@FilmSnapper but he is a ZOMBIE! XD

[FilmSnapper]

@rod9as1 So?

Moving to the last place he saw you at is still pretty stupid, it's just not ridiculously stupid.

[secretbloxer]

@FilmSnapper aka splinter cell.

[FilmSnapper]

@secretbloxer No, that's just more intelligent behaviour...

[TheLastStraight]

This should be added to minecraft with no doubt.

But it must be improved with sound detection and npc memory (to keep searching for the players in the direction they have escaped)

That would make the game more interesting.

Thumbs up if you agree!

[JoQeZzZ]

I notice that once you get out of his FOV, he completely forgets that you were there, otherwise BRILIANT

[kalle1222]

Stupid zombie! He is behind the pillar!

[ptubbytaylor]

led here by notch!

[Dhamian]

Am I the only one that thought of Metal Gear Solid when watching this?

[FurrFexAche]

@Dhamian No I did to lol

[quirboy]

assacins creep? with guards?

[turboblazer]

Well, I've learned that zombies aren't the best guards in the world. XD (Great work though, lol)

[AsleApeland]

i watched this 5 minutes before notch tweeted it...

[Madnesscombat193]

This shit better be in the game. Please. :(

[CanadiensUnplugged]

This needs to be in vanilla. It'd make combat so much more awesome. This and inter-mob communication would be cool. Like, the player would be able to pick off a lone mob but a group of mobs would have basically an expanded FOV because there are multiple mobs.

[heySquiddles]

Thank Goodness!

Steve? Steve? STEEEEEVE!!!

[Shikamaru1801]

this reminds me at the first metal gear xD

[themrofl]

Wait is that an 8 bit "one"?

[Unh3lpful]

I think they just got a downgrade. Its cool, yeah but you walk behind a block and it just forgets you exist. Maybe if it can't see you for a set amount of time it leaves you.

[krokkoguy]

Zombie: Oh i see someone, better go kill him.

*walks out of sight*

Zombie: huh, where did he go? better stand here and look straight forward until i see someone again.

[mrsslein]

is this a mod? is there gonna be a download link

[youlox123456789]

NOTCH! Y U NO HIRE HIM?

[GillesNovaGuy]

hey cryect adventurecraft is keeping crashing for no reason .can you tell whats going on?

[cymonsgames]

Now we need weeping angels who freeze when seen by the player or other mobs so you can temporal lock them with each other the way weeping angels should work.

[Thial1000]

You sir, have just got yourself a subscriber!

[TheCallunxz]

Is there a script for this I would really like it for my map :O

[Szklarzified]

@TheCallunxz It is in adventurecraft

[TheCallunxz]

@Szklarzified When theres a zombie in my map it doesnt act like this...

[Szklarzified]

@TheCallunxz Hm...

That's weird, in my maps they do.

[TheCallunxz]

@Szklarzified How? So you can like hide behind stuff like this? :/

[Szklarzified]

@TheCallunxz I can sneak up behind them, and run for my life without it having a sixth sense.

[dakatubes]

feel like solid snake

[Kingdomfire551]

make moar videos......and i dont know how to download adventure craft! o.O

[LemonVX]

dear notch...

no seriously notch, i wish this was in the game

[LeggyGuard2]

this can be a guard mob programing if you make him stronger and wearing armor

[BL00XER1]

Deus Ex In minecrafT!

[T0by24]

He sure has a bad short-term memory, doesn't he?

[theBraxil]

@T0by24 yeah, he should add in a few seconds of memory. So you have to stay out of site for a few seconds before he forgets about u and stops searching when he last saw you.

Also, I wonder if he can see through the leaves in trees.

[toady1985]

Hey Cryect, this is a nice looking mod I'm just stumbling upon it for the first time now, heavily into modding and modtools like this so I really appreciate someone having made something as awesome as this for Minecraft. But I have a question for you: Is it possible to turn off features like this FOV detection within your mod, so that map creators can decide whether they want it or not? Thanks :)

[InsaneNutjob]

You should make it so that it patrols the area it last sees you at, so you need to quickly escape the area. Of course, you could do that in a different mob where an actual brain would fit.

[CRE8IVEdits]

Gives me an awesome idea for an assassain type game.

[MoofyZTR]

I have no idea how to do this.

[Sandman2q]

they should look around object instead of just giving up as soon as line of sight is broken

[MegaNinja27]

Download please

[DarkDXZ]

Now I think we need a butterfly knife, invisibility watch and disguise kit to make a full use of this...

Mob Dungeon 2 FTW!

[Droid15243Z]

Awesome! XD

[samothproductions]

I think the mob should chase after you for a longer time to make it more exciting and realistic. It will give you that thrill just like Amnesia.

[SN777DivinusBlargumi]

Another job well done. I'm thinking of implementing stealth to my map.

[Patacorow]

Hey Cryect, make it so if you move out of the mob's sight he moves to where he's last seen you! :D

[Cryect2]

@Patacorow It already does that just where he last sees me just might not be where you think it is.

[wheaty123]

Notch should just hire you already.

[goruu]

I think there should be sound detection.....

If someone sprints behind the zombies, they'll turn around and enter the detection mode to look around the blind spots from what he sees at the moment.

After he checks out all the blind spots he goes straight back to the place where he stood on and go straight to wander mode. Makes the Zombies much more advanced.

This + merge with Darkcraft = hard mode for MC even on Easy mode.

[Cryect2]

@goruu I'm planning to add sound detection but not going to do anything more advance for searching. Probably going to double or even triple mob sight range and then have it be modified by darkness.

[magicguitarist2]

@Cryect2 i think i wouldve bought your game if i never even heard of minecraft love it man

[jony1710]

@Cryect2 zombies should stay dumb like this though. spiders ans skellies should be a bit more smart. :)

[SuperDarkcarnival]

Metal Gear Solid anyone?

[shrogg2]

! What was that noise?

[danelo13]

i think you made zombies more stupid...

[Cryect2]

@danelo13 Welcome to AI in most games! Really that is the point of AI often is how to make them not be omnipresent but instead seem to be more reasonable. I added this mainly because I was noticing after improving the path finding of mobs they were now too good at finding you (previously the path finding of zombies is always to run in a straight line towards you).

[mooman219]

@Cryect2 Will multiple zombies be able to communicate with eachother? As if one zombie sees you, does it tell the others of your presence?

[Cryect2]

@mooman219 Not currently, but definitely something that is feasible to do!

[mooman219]

@Cryect2 Thanks! Just seems more realistic that way.

[TheFortressKid]

You forgot to shoot the lights!!!!!

[GamersWithGuns]

Good work!

[ChaaozZ]

wow! this is great! needs improvement ofc, but this is something that minecraft should have.

METAL GEAR TIME WOO

[BandosGodDragon]

AWESOME! But why beta 1.7.3?

[Cryect2]

@BandosGodDragon Read the description, AdventureCraft btw has about 200 new files and modifies about 100 of the base files hence why.

[BandosGodDragon]

@Cryect2 ........Are you the only one working on it?

[Cryect2]

@BandosGodDragon Yes, I'm the only one working on AdventureCraft. I'm about 50% of my way through the integration for files. Then next I need to fix bugs and reimplement features that didn't integrate nicely (for example the handheld torch). After that then I need to make everything in 1.8 that is new behavior like food and sprinting able to be toggled so old maps aren't broken.

[Brickfilmer535]
