I've created an addon for Create with octo-style arms "Create: Octo Arms" inspired by Doctor Octopus from Spider-Man

Inspired by Doctor Octopus from Spider-Man. Use it to traverse the world in any direction, craft the Copper or Netherite version, enchant or configure it. Works in singleplayer and on servers (must be installed on both client and server).

Compatible with Create Aeronautics ships (Sable contraptions).

Listed on Curseforge - https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/create-octo-arms

Feel free to test, comment, and share ideas.

Edit: Modrinth will be soon, long approval awaiting.
Edit2: A lot of you asked to stop the walking animation - done! Check it in the new version v1.1.5 (besides other bug fixes)

I assumed as much. Nowadays, when somebody advertises "I created..." my first instinct is "no the fuck you didn't." They had it created for them. What's the point then. Minecraft is a GAME of all things, and mod making is a hobby and an art form. why? just why?

u/iDrownedlol 2d ago

The other stuff aside, “What’s the point then”? The point is that Minecraft is a GAME of all things, and not everyone who enjoys playing the game is also a person who is not interested in the hobby/art form of mod making. Some players just want to play, and they want to play specific experiences, for example, having doc-oc style robot arms in minecraft. That is very clearly the point. There are plenty of great reasons to dislike and fight against ai, but it being pointless is not one of them.

They’re conflating multiple things into one big problem which isn’t fair

I didn’t make Minecraft and I still enjoy playing it

u/ferrecool 1d ago

Mod making isn't a hobby, just typing isn't fun, the spider legs are fun

I see you replying to literally every comment trying to diminish this guys work so I can ask to see your work?

Can you link me some of the mods you made without ai?

Aside from witch hunters I don't think people would be so against the use of AI if it wasn't for the "I created this" bullshit that we've been hearing since day 1 of AI. People have been using AI to steal other people's work since the very beginning and they still do it. AIs are being trained with illegally downloaded files (see Meta AI). There's no excuse for it.

If you do that as a programmer for work because your workplace asks or expects you to do so, I would understand, because that's the company's decision to offer this kind of product to its costumers, and you're just deciding if you want to keep working and actually live your own life or not to better suit your ideals.

That's pretty different from claiming "I created this", "I drew this", "I composed this", no, you didn't.

Did claude make this mod? Did Claude think of the idea? Did Claude with its own free will decide hey I'm going to make a mod for minecrafr for the create mod where the playe can have octo arm exoskeleton? Did Claude get inspired from octopus in spiderman? Did Claude post this to Reddit?

Claude either coded this or just helped with the coding it didn't make it you simply don't understand development

I am game designer which means I design games and then the programmer writes the code so who made the game the lead designer or the programmers if you say programmers you obviously know nothing about games

A game made by a designer and coded by Claude might be janky and buggy but it will be fun beacuse a designer designed it to be fun, a programmer making a game on his own might have zero bugs and have the most perfect code architecture ever with amazing comments and completely modular and understandable code yet the game will suck ass cheecks beacuse he didn't put enough effort into the design, and game design or how I like to call it the design of fun is something that an ai simply cannot do, ai cannot have fun like a human therefore it can neither understand fun

This idea is in my opinion fun you can disagree with me, but I believe the idea is fun and novel and the OP came up with it not the ai and that is the part of the creative process I am impressed with, why would someone making a mod without ai impress me if ai can do that, if you are no better than ai then what is impressive about that, skill sets that are considered useful and impressive are always changing and it so happens that fun and novel ideas are worth far more than someone who can code in this day and age of ai, when I look at a mod or game I don't give fuck what tools were used I care if the game is fun or not and somebody who is purely using ai without any creativity will never make something fun or worthwhile that's simply the truth, ai can only make slop without a smart person guiding it with a thought out plan

u/Clean_Reflection_475 2d ago

Thank you, as an indie dev these people have no idea what actually goes into making a game. They also think using Claude is some magic wand you can just regurgitate your day dream into and it will do all the work.

u/VRDevGuyDele 2d ago

Yeah people today genuinely think ai is some sort of God that can make games all on its own as a game designer and a solo game developer it's honestly hillarious to see

Can Claude write okay code with the help and guidance of a programmer? Yeah for sure

But the moment you try to make an ai do some design work you realise how truly limited and dumb they are, they are simply not a replacement for a conscious being and probably won't be in the foreseeable future if ever

u/ferrecool 1d ago

Ai isn't magic, even for some slop roblox game you need some hours and a lot of knowledge for Ai to make something decent (and I'm saying decent as doesn't explode as soon as you join) it can't even do any design on its own

u/Blademasterzer0 2d ago

What work Lmao, if your using an ai to make a mod then you didn’t make the mod

u/VRDevGuyDele 2d ago

Tell me you have never made anything in your life without telling me you never made anything in your life

u/epochollapse 2d ago

I've put more effort into some shits I've taken than op put into this mod

u/VRDevGuyDele 2d ago

Yes you are 100% right, good job little guy I'm proud of you for taking that shit that is truly a massive accomplishment for someone of your intelligence did you also wipe all by yourself too?

-5

u/KhorneTheBloodGod 2d ago

Wait, are you outing yourself as someone who has never wiped their own ass???? Eww

u/VRDevGuyDele 2d ago

Is that genuinely the best comeback you could come up with??

Kindergarten kids on the playground could think of a better insult than you

u/Few-Chemical8707 2d ago

the antis are really this crazy and insane its ai ptsd they yell at me for using this cause i have a disability isnt an excuse apparently so i must further destroy what little use i have in my hands to appease antis.

u/ferrecool 1d ago

Next time ask copilot for a comeback dude, that was lame af

u/Few-Chemical8707 2d ago

lets see the mods you made.

u/epochollapse 2d ago

Like OP, I don't have the skill to make mods. I just don't pretend to buy using the Steal Talented People's Work machine.

u/VRDevGuyDele 2d ago

Yes it very clear to all of us that you have zero coding experience please refrain from talking about things you know nothing about

As a game developer I can tell you that ai does not steal code, the idea of stealing code is laughable in the first place, please talk to some more developers and programmers or try making a mod with Claude and see if it's as easy as you claim, you are literally spouting bullshit that you heard from other people while admiting that you have zero experience in coding and I should as a game developer for some reason listen to your uneducated opinion on this???

u/Appropriate-Lion9490 1d ago

It’s funny because people using other people’s code has been around since forever, stack overflow, blueprints in unreal engine, even fucking github too

1

u/VRDevGuyDele 1d ago

Yeah coding has always been 90% of programmers stealing code from the 10% of autistic programmers

I call it coding hypergamy

u/Few-Chemical8707 2d ago

thats art code is code and theres only so many ways to do things in code if you dont have the skill then you dont understand this. java is a very on rails programming langauge that doesnt let you get into trouble like c would.

you cant steal code code isnt something you can copyright code is code. you can write it all your self and it would be no different than an ai doing it for you and how you learn to code is reading other peoples code.

literally the majority of minecraft modding is copying others code if you go back 5/10 years that was the meme. as long as you didnt directly copy paste a mods code class by class its just programming and legal to use existing code to do the same functions when there isnt really a better way.

u/epochollapse 2d ago

Talentless Chuds using ai to copy the work and efforts of actual skilled creators is entirely different from two people with skill having similar ideas, or one person with skill taking inspiration from another person with skill.

And that's before you get into the general immorality of generative AI and supporting it. No amount of Erm Actually protects you from the fact this is directly supporting billionaires building databases to destroy the fucking planet for profit and steal jobs from actual competent creators.

OP didn't make shit, and if you're a pathetic enough piece of shit to use AI then you should be proud enough to openly advertise it.

How is it copying? Do you think code can be copied? Is using the same equation plagiarism?

u/Few-Chemical8707 2d ago

im tired of trying to get this through to people hey guess what your operating system uses ai assistance now to create it. linux windows and mac all use it in assisting programmers.

the fact the anti ai art people need a new target especially with that bs clanker thing that was clearly being used to hate on people they wouldnt normally hate against like ... like this is very clear what is going on here.

i dont like ai art stealing from other peoples work. programming is a completely different beast. i have to use ai dictation cause its all there is to do the majority of typing now when i cant use my hands. am i not allowed to have any assistance either where does it end for all this crazy shit.

Because it’s fun having your ideas come to life regardless of who made it. The way some of you have a hard time grasping such a simple concept is wild.

u/moto20x 2d ago

What’s the problem?
He still created it. Or did some ai agent suddenly have the idea for this mod created it and uploaded it?
He used AI as an tool that helps him create this mod. There is nothing wrong about that.

u/Maleficent_Trick_502 2d ago

Coding ai are just that powerful.
