Dary's Decoratives: Curtains (or simply DD Curtains) is a part of (hopefully) upcoming series of "small" themed decorative mods.
Dary's Decoratives:
This mod is an attempt to create an ultimate curtains mod, that will add many kinds of window dressings over time. Currently, it contains of:
- Curtains
- Sheer Curtains
- Beaded Curtains
- Blinds
- Roller Curtains
- Portiere
- PVC Curtains
- ...planned, work in progress: curtains with patterns and beautiful designs, lace voile
All fabric, beaded curtains and portieres are available in 16 minecraft colours+5 new ( emerald, linen, beige, crimson, lilac ). Blinds are available in all minecraft wood types. PVC are just the single curtain kind to honour the will of an unknown person on Reddit, whose post I came across one day :-D .
! If you right-click the curtains block with a similar kind of curtain in hand, this curtain will be placed below the existing ones in that column, allowing them to be easily extended without pixel-hunting.
Curtains and Sheer Curtains and Beaded Curtains have the same complex behavior:
- When right_clicked, they will cycle the current column through different available positions (opened to the left, to the right, closed and fully opened)
- When Shift-right-clicked, they will open neatly for the whole window
- If the redstone signal is present, the curtains will be opened for the whole window (daylight-sensor friendly designs!)
- Curtains of all colors, as well as sheer and non-sheer and beaded can be combined to create intricate window dressings of any legth
Roller curtains have their behavior too:
- When right_clicked, they will open/close for the whole window
- If the redstone signal is present, the roller curtains will be opened/closed for the whole window
Blinds :
- When right_clicked, they will close/open
- When Shift-right-clicked, they will raise upwards for the whole window
- If the redstone signal is present, the blinds will be raised for the whole window
Portieres:
No special behavior, just hanging down with a royal grace and handle some simple ctm logic. Can be used to decorate walls, doorways or windows by themselves or with another curtains nearby.
PVC curtains:
No special behavior, just hanging out to please some engineer's aesthetics.
Important! This mod offers some neat configurable options too. Check the config file to:
- Set the light blocking level for non-transparent curtains. Blackout curtains are cool, but may be a bit annoying due to the minecraft light engine.
- Enable/disable accurate bounding boxes for curtains. Invisible curtains will not have the bounding boxes to click on this way. Read carefully the configuration description and choose what you prefer.
- Enable/ disable ambient chime when an entity collides with the beaded curtains
