Your friendly neighborhood Kingpin here....
Just uploaded the newest release for the Kritter Kollection. 1.3 introduces 3 new mobs and one new item. Centaurs can be found roaming deserts, plains, and sometimes the swamps. Natives to the Minecraft world, i call these guys Pygmy, can be found roaming around everywhere for now. Anubis Dogs will come out at night to try out there hunting skills on you. And the new item is a banana. Just some regular food that will be used in the next update if everything goes as planned.
Quick note: The cats, all of them, are again able to be tamed. But there is a bug that causes them to become untamed if you close the Minecraft client. Working on that. And i will be changing the OP with pics of the new mobs and details about them. For now check out the README for more info. Im off to get one more day in of 'The Old Republic' beta.
Enjoy the new release and please post and comments and questions. Click the 'Green plus' on the OP if you like my work, please.

EDIT: As always, spawn rate for each mob can be adjusted in the props file. I rushed this release because of a certain beta weekend event. Properties file is located: .minecraft/config/LK.properties.
Yeah, far better than More Creeps and Weirdos (which, I find, is total nonsense), and even better than Mo'Creatures (which was cool, but get too complicated with horse and dolphin breeding...).
I really don't understand why it is so unknown. The mobs even have great textures !
I almost gave the Centaur a bow. But went with the sword because i had already given the bow to the Pygmy. :smile.gif:
I so very happy you all like the new additions. Ill be redoing the OP to reflect the changes. And be sure to drop by Zekeyspaceylizard's thread and tell him what an OUTSTANDING job he did on the mobs. While you are there, give his texture pack a go, if you have not already. Anyway back to the beta weekend event. whoooosh.....
I'm having troubles with this because I can't seem to find any cats. First off where do they spawn and second off can I use a spawner gui to spawn some?

Like was stated a few posts back and in the README. The spawn rate for all mobs are fully adjustable. That is the nature of the beast with randomly generated games. Sometimes you wont find any, sometimes they are all up in your face meowing. The properties file can be found here: .minecraft/config/LK.properties. It is generated after the first time you run Minecraft with the Kritter Kollection installed.

First i want to thank everyone for the positive feedback here on the thread and in PMs. I am a little overwhelmed.
I have updated the OP to show the new content and features. The old development/preview vids are still available through the link to my Youtube channel (right under the Kingpin Kritters banner). But i would love to post some new vids showing off all of the old and new content. I also posted a quick update today. It introduces a new texture for the Anubis dog and a few other small tweaks not worth mentioning here. Be sure to pick it up and do a fresh install.
Still working on the project in my free time and i plan on releasing an update in the coming weeks.
I wish Zekey had done alternate skins for cats, too. I'm not really a big fan of Loafcraft, though I admit the textures are beautiful. But a Zekocraft-styled cat would be even more awesome.
We have discussed this as well. I agree, the textures are superb. But i would like to be able to offer a 'Notch' style and 'Zekey' style textures. Hopefully when he has the time, we can release some different cat skins. Also my plan was to have the Pygmy come in multiple colors. We shall see. :smile.gif:
Will you be making this for SMP as well?? I didn't notice anywhere in the post if it had been mentioned. I would love to add this to my server. Thanks for the great work. Keep it up!

Thanks so much for the support. I WILL be supporting SMP in the future. Give me a week or two and ill see what i can do. But it IS a planned feature.
Hey, just an idea I had. What if pigmys and centaurs were sleeping at night ? They become stuck in place, with an alternate skin which have eyes closed. Other mobs don't attack them. If you attack them they wake up and counterstrike, and if you left they go to sleep again. That would be totally logical, no ?
Thats a good idea. Id like to have them spawn with 'camp sites'. Maybe sometime in the future when my coding skills improve, i can do some of the things i have planned for them and other mobs. But the sleeping thing is not bad, i do like it.
Hey, did a quick mod for ya! great mod, I love it!!!
Thanks so very much for the showcase vid. I liked it. Just and FYI - there are Anubis Dogs that spawn at night. They are kinda tough and very fast. Im a little pleased with how well they turned out. Just dont want your to miss out on the experience of them hunting you down :tongue.gif: Thanks again, ill feature the vid in the OP.

I´m happy you´ve updatet!
Here are some pictures of the new mobs and the new fish texture (maybe anyone want to see them before downloading, they are awesome!):
All these mobs don´t really fly, it´s just a command of singleplayer commands :wink.gif:

Thanks so much for the support. Tell your friends about this project. I am in the process of redoing the OP to reflect the new changes.

Thanks so much for the support. The texture work for the Centaur and the Gorilla is done by Zekeyspaceylizard. He is the author of ZekoCraft. And this is his thread. http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/180251-zekocraft-16-px-updated-november-24th-10/
Thanks for the encouragement. And as always thanks for the support.

The spawn rate for every mob is variable. .minecraft/config/LK.properties. Ill look into the Centaur issue.
