This is true, we had a lot of trouble when my mum was setting up her business earlier this year.

But as far as names for Kaos' add-on go, I'm sure no-one would mind if it was named the same as a magazine or a superstore ... Especially if he sticks to the plan to keep it just here.

The thing about trademarks is that they only apply to the name in combination with a certain scope. Technically, you're quite in your rights to start a computer-unrelated business called Microsoft (practically, I suspect you'll still be sued to pieces >.>). In the case of a mod name, I wouldn't worry about trademarks too much.

I'm honestly leaning towards calling it what it is: BTW Deco Add-on. No need to give it a special name, I mean it's the only one of its kind so far.

That's actually better than what I've thought of so far. Hmmm.. I'm still thinking about it, though.
The Birds and the Bees.

But then you'd have to add a bird to it.

Awesome! :D

I secretly kind of wanted you to name the add-on "Better Homes and Gardens" but this name would've been my second choice.
Nice work.

Not a bug really, but in the first post, when explaining the textures, but you still call the seeds pollen.

Thanks! I'mma spend some time now playing in my main world with it. It'll probably give me time to come up with some ideas as to what I'd like to add in the future.

Hey! Hey! Hey, Kaos! Hey! Guess what!

It's the first of May :D.

I've had fun this past hour playing around :P.

Look what I made (which I've been planning for about a week):

Granted, it was on creative on a superflat world, but it's what I will be building on my main once this is released with definitive block IDs :).

And here is the same site with my particular brand of textures:

Animation wise, the fireflies in the lanterns fly around, and the mead barrel drips :).

I haven't done the items or mobs yet (because I haven't done them for anything yet), but I've done all your terrains. Which means that my v0.2 of my pack will include them once I've managed to upload them :).

Really well done, Kaos, I love it, and I can't wait to see what else you add :). Thank you very much :D.

Haha, great minds think alike - I've already changed it for the next release of my TP :).

Kaos, how come the bees don't make hives on the cherry blossoms? Is this intentional or a bug?

This was sort of an unintended feature. I didn't think about it at first, but I don't think I'm going to change it now.

Yeah, I thought it made sense in a strange sort of way, I just wondered whether it happened by accident or not :).

Between this and redneck fishing, today has been a good day :).

So far I'm really enjoying the updated version. So I have a question.

You say that these aren't the final block IDs, and that when we get the extended IDs you're going to change them. That's cool. I'm avoiding using certain blocks extensively because of this. Narratively I can accept that my Sakura trees and pretty flowers died overnight and need to be replanted, but my walkway disappearing would be weird.

Anyway, my question is what about item IDs? Because I'm at the point where I can start farming some stuff extensively, and I'm wondering if stashing it in item form will be safe from the block ID apocalypse.
