Yeah, we dont have too much good coders willing to work on a thing like this here. Where did magmamcfry go?

[forsaken1111]

I did make contact with my previously-interested coder but he's going through some personal stuff right now and unavailable.

Be fun if we could do some hardcore modding.  Like, add a happiness meter that goes above your armor bar (because that seems fitting) and then add tables and chairs and be able to use them.  If you fail to keep up with your happiness, then you black out for a bit and wake up to find furniture destroyed and your health a little lower.

You are become the dwarf!

The socks! you are missing the socks!

But yes, a DF-minecraft mod would be awesome. Maybe we could add screw pumps, better than wolves-esque axles and wind/water wheels, pump magma and whatnot. Also goblins. Many goblins.
I'd be willing to do the art on that.

Hell, just adding sieges would give a lot.  Minecraft has no real -threat- to it.

So I logged on with a HC chracater.. and noone there were noone there.

Yeah not a lot of people have been on the terraria server lately.

Add breachable rock doors, reskin zombehs and skellies to goblins... Profit. Ogres could be reskinned iron golems.

_{Someone should make a design document for this}

Get some programmers, then make a design document

Working on step 1. Know any?

Those steps are the wrong way around. Make a design document, otherwise you won't get any programmers. This discussion here has a lot of programmers talking about what they'd need to see from a proposed project to want to be a part of it: http://www.gamedev.net/topic/631738-so-youre-a-programmer/

There is a door missing at spawn.
Just thought you guys should know.

While that is neat, I'm talking about a minecraft mod here, not trying to get someone to make a game for me.

Which is of course, just a small matter of programming A project is a project. If you're looking for a programmer to work on a project with you, you're looking for a programmer to work on a project with you. So you have to be respectful of their skills, and you have to advertise your skills and the project correctly otherwise you won't attract the kind of people you are wanting to attract and the result won't be of the quality you want the quality to be (if it manifests at all).

I didn't mean to trivialize the skills of programmers, I have the highest respect for them in fact. And you're correct, I should probably flesh out the project more.
