Mirrors

[Scooterdanny 285]

I had the idea, that since man has had metals, we polished it until it shone, and we could use it as mirrors, i would love to see Mirrors implemented.

My idea is that you take a Glass pane, and a metal sheet (or equivalent item) and combine them either with some binder, or with flux similarly to armor making. (It's a stretch, i realize) But i feel like it would really add to the opulence one can have, I had this idea when i pondered on the Hall of Mirrors in Versailles. It was a status symbol that not only was practical (for nobles) but was a stark symbol to anyone that visited.

And in-game the only reason would be to be able to look at oneself.

Lastly, i have seen that most of your suggestions are mostly for aesthetics, Scooter any specific reason?

Firstly, i want to point out, there's already a mod that adds mirrors to minecraft. If you take in count you can get vanilla iron from the zombies, this mod's mirror are both obtainable in TFC and a luxury -it takes 3 iron ingots and 3 glass blocks to make them, you know how many zombie killing it takes to get 3 iron ingots?!-. If this suggestion is rejected, for whatever reason, you can wait 'till this mod gets updated to 1.3.2 and give it a try

Secondly, as much as i would like this to be in the game, isn't it a little too soon to start asking for more aesthetical things? with construction and kingdoms updates coming soon, right now aesthetics aren't the best things Bioxx and Dunk could concentrate in. Shouldn't we wait until the mod gets more developed for start asking this kind of things?

Ahaha, well, i feel most functionality has already been discussed to death so far, i want to spark more life into the somewhat stagnant suggestion thread. But i have no imperative on dates, for all i care, this could just sit for a year, before being used, I guess i could write a list on my comp, and wait But thanks JAG, i appreciate the mod info, i just want to suggest as much as i can, that would potentially make TFC the de-facto mod for all players, interested in RP, Adventure, Decoration, and innovation.

Well... you got a point there. As i see it, TFC is at least considered to already be the de-facto you are talking about sure there are still missing things, but come on, it's already awesome as it is :3 -ignoring some bugs, of course... but nobody is perfect xD-

[Scooterdanny 285]

Well i consider it defacto, but not until it is like THE mod that everyone plays i meant.

Perhaps a setting for mirrors that just makes them shiny, gray expanses? So players whose computers can't handle mirrors can still play on servers with players whose computers can?

Agreed. Also, anybody heard of Archimedes's mirror?

[bsb23 303]

I have, unfortunately though it has been proven to be only theoretical and in fact most likely couldn't have lit anything on fire although it was good at blinding people. You would need a lot of mirrors.

[Scooterdanny 285]

Ha. blinding sieges with mirrors would be great! (or set them on fire >.>)

[Just_Another_Guy_:) 1,066]

Yeah, i heard about it. I'm gonna use it along with the lemon scourge in some siege >
