Decorative curtains of all kinds, blinds, portieres, beaded curtains, and neat behavior

Description

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
