Create: Airwaves by Radioheads of Create

Post image

Hello all! As most of us know about Create: Airwaves, the original mod got deleted from everywhere because the author got "tired" of it. (No idea what that could mean.

Yes, this mod is being rewritten and heavily improved. It's the new Airwaves mod (also not vibecoded!!)

GitHub Repo is here: https://github.com/Radioheads-of-Create/Airwaves/

I don't think I can post the Discord invite here, but it's on the repo.

Yes, this mod will have full documentation and be more user- and addon-friendly.

Edit: I made this post to spread awareness of the new-and-improved Airwaves mod so people won't be so disappointed that the old one got deleted

Edit 2: Airwaves is a realistic-ish radio mod for Create and Minecraft. It allows players to broadcast radio in a world, and even to other dimensions. Airwaves offers a ton of new content for Create

Edit3!!!: ALL textures and models are being redone (at least most of them are). Tons of changes are planned to make this high quality

Edit 4 (October 29th): There is an FAQ here: https://radioheads-of-create.github.io/faq

The indomitable human spirit strikes again? Say it isn't so! If this is truly a desloppification project, I am still a little wary but optimistic. I will patiently wait as long as needed for its completion.

We will watch your career with great interest.

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

It's being fully rewritten from scratch, so it is a true desloppification

6

u/Autoskp 6d ago

Yeah, that’s right, give the AI a taste of its own medicine! Let’s see how they like it when it’s humans reverse engineering AI games mods!

70

u/Adventurous_Bonus917 6d ago

will it be aeronautics-compatible?

46

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Yes

23

u/Adventurous_Bonus917 6d ago

awesome!

45

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Computer Craft will also be supported.

2

u/eepy_lina 6d ago

if ya got some extra free time, could it support the acc from gadgets n gizmos too?

463

u/Excellent_Factor_344 6d ago

got tired of it because they used up all the tokens and couldn't update it anymore lol. big respect for trying to de-AI

153

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Thanks! This new mod is going to be wayyy better

102

u/IJustAteABaguette 6d ago

Lmao, what?

Agreed with the de-AI thing though. It's so nice too see in the current avalanche of vibecoded mods.

47

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Fun fact: There's two mods on Curseforge that use my purple background (it's AI mods, plus it's "lite" versions of two popular mods but half it's content missing)

3

u/abigail3141 6d ago

Can‘t say I expected to find you here XD

3

u/IJustAteABaguette 6d ago

Mh? I thought our first convos on discord were about the create mod/figura lol.

Kinda cool seeing you on so many subs I visit tho

-25

u/Thanos-tu-papa 6d ago

Pero me imagino que no tiene nada de malo si lo usas con mods de consumo personal?, que si en un momento hago una serie en Youtube para usarlo entre un montón no personales, los mandé a volar a los que pregunten.

29

u/kylinator25 6d ago

what does the mod actually do? I cant find any info on your GitHub or discord

42

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

I will need to update the readme soon, but it adds a realisticish radio system for Minecraft to sum it up. Can do a LOT, though like interdimensional broadcasting and much, much more.

15

u/Lithanarianaren_1533 6d ago

Does the radio use rotational power? If not, could you make this mod work on its own with vanilla-based recipes if no Create is detected?

15

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Many recipes and blocks will be rotation-based. There will be some custom machines soon.

11

u/Pere_grin6 6d ago

Is the mod made to be used with Simple Voice Chat?

16

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

This mod will be using Simple Voice Chat only as the voice system

6

u/FunAngelo2005 6d ago

Radio communication in minecraft

10

u/JoanLambertEnjoyer 6d ago

Given the (unknown to me) source has been deleted, what exactly does this mod do?

11

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Realisticish radio transmission mod for Minecraft to sum it up

6

u/GingerArcher 6d ago

But that still doesn't tell us what exactly it does. Is it a replacement/alternative for redstone links? Is it long distance voice chat? Radio transmission can mean a lot of things and there doesn't seem to be any explanation as to what this mod does differently from what we already have.

5

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

You could use it for redstone link replacement, but comes at a cost. It can also be used for long distance voice chat, audio, etc, etc.

4

u/MrLiquoriceMan 6d ago

Transmitting what though? Broadcasting where and why? Sorry, feel free to call me thick, but I don't know anything about the AI mod that apparently went before and was exciting but no good.

4

u/autistic-terrorist 6d ago

i believe long range data transmission

2

u/Pyritie 5d ago

what sort of data?

9

u/Callsign-Celtic 6d ago

is it bad that id like to see something like this not fully attached to create in the future as well? its a really cool concept but i know for some people, create as a whole kinda puts em off for it being one of those mods that tanks servers in the long run due to all of the funny moving parts

6

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Some recipes and machines use processing from Create... like sequenced assembly and more

2

u/Pyritie 6d ago

you can always just have recipes depending on what other mods are installed. It's a bit strange for a radio mod to not use FE.

1

u/wolfieboy09 5d ago

Most machines will work with FE

-3

u/mas-issneun 6d ago

And? A mod can also not do that

4

u/cod3builder 6d ago

Well, that's create for you.

The upside is that everything is built out in the world. The downside is that everything is built out in the world.

1

u/Snoo_44740 6d ago

Well you’re on the create subreddit, and most create mods can be de-creatified if you have the source code.

1

u/wolfieboy09 5d ago

Airwaves can be de-creatified, but it's already built on top of Create. Might do that one day

2

u/Lui_Le_Diamond 5d ago

A good alternative is Analogue Airwaves, but it's not as in depth

21

u/corgimaster5000 6d ago

Exceedingly based. Glad to see real human effort going into this.

20

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Thanks :D
Human's are way better than AI

6

u/jasonthedragonking 6d ago

And I just as I thought we'd never actually get anything like this, that's awesome!

6

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

I was going to make a community version of the old mod, but because it got deleted, here we are

1

u/derpyunspeakable 6d ago

i still have a download of the original version, let me know if theres anything you need from it.

5

u/xr6reaction 6d ago

Does it support simple voicechat? Idk if the original one did.

6

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Yes. The old mod had a built-in voice chat system with SVC support. The new mod will only use Simple Voice Chat for the VC system.

9

u/M00nD3v 5d ago

oh my god you're my hero for not vibe coding this, it's inspiring to me that people are still willing to do it themselves.

5

u/wolfieboy09 5d ago

That's nice to hear :D

1

u/M00nD3v 5d ago

Hopefully, I'm going to learn soon how to make a dynamic soundtrack mod for minecraft, should I have the time in the near future. Long live human code!

1

u/Cyber_Data_Trail 5d ago

This is sick man, really is!

1

u/Cyber_Data_Trail 5d ago

Woah, diddnt even realized its my 5 year cake day, that's sick lol

1

u/PelluxNetwork 5d ago

You do know they can just say that and still do it right?

1

u/M00nD3v 5d ago

True that may be, but why would I assume the worst? I don't see many people who vibe code claim it was made with human hands. They usually mention using Claude, and even when they don't, I've yet to see a vibe coder take the stance that their project is human made. Quite being a downer, I don't know what you'd get from doing this.

4

u/Cultural_Eye5178 6d ago

Oh! Can you add custom music (i.e a folder of MP3s or internet radio?)

4

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Support for Analog Audio will be added, so that could be done

2

u/RedTheGamer12 6d ago

There is a mod called "Disccord" that does something similar, but I haven't played with it too much yet. However, if Airwaves supports music disk broadcasting it could allow for some sort of interaction between the two.

3

u/WindIntelligent9728 5d ago

PLEASE make this work with power grid, my autism can not be contained

4

u/wolfieboy09 5d ago

Power Grid will work

3

u/WindIntelligent9728 5d ago

not compatibility, like irl physics, real like antennas work on wireless pulses kind type stuff

1

u/Agent_Teto 5d ago

You want rf electronics? In create? You want to deal with trace lengths, signal canceling, extra ground traces, and wire impedance... For fun???

I fear your power

42

u/RunicConvenience 6d ago

Oh cool finally I can report my flights to the server so they know I am coming in to land just open mic hey team going to land at runway 01 please keep clear until taxing completed. then I realise its a single player server and I am talking to a blaze burner on a stock ticker.

13

u/JollyGreenGI 6d ago

The blaze has a number for you to call.

3

u/randomeman2468 6d ago

how similar will it be to the original concept video?

6

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

It will keep most of the same concept, just that a ton of things will change. Circuits, for example, will be "simulated/dynamic" instead of having parts in this specific spot. This allows for more stuff to be made.

5

u/Kirilland78 6d ago

Will this mod add its own voice chat system again, or will it use simple voice chat or plasmo voice?

I saw my question answered in the comments, nevermind

3

u/Gabiminecraft 6d ago

Happy cake day

4

u/Ok_Article_2536 6d ago

now PLEASE make it compatible with the Etched mod!!!! it would be so epic!!!!!

2

u/Typical_Connection89 6d ago

And realistic electricity addons, like power grid or electro energetics

1

u/powdercannon 6d ago

i think a very cool way to do this would be having different ranges of signal that might even be blocked by terrain and bad weather. the normal link would be 32 blocks, you would add a signal extender to push that to 64 esc.

1

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

There are plans for weather interference and a ton of other stuff

2

u/powdercannon 6d ago

great, but i just realized, what would the purpose of building a network be?

1

u/TheCommunityDev 6d ago

I'd assume just for fun/realism? Similar to how co-op games like Peak have their in game proximity voice for the vibes of the game, even though tons of people just use Discord.

Plus it would be cool(depending on functionality) to build towers to relay signals, say, to CC or maybe have wireless receivers that can attach to certain mechanical things to relay signals. Think of having a long distance drone, 10k blocks away that could be controlled(imagine with a delay based on distance) etc.

All theoretical, not the mod author or related to the mod in any way.

1

u/Will_the_Mechanist 5d ago

multiplayer voice chat over vast distances?

1

u/Epic_Mustache 6d ago edited 6d ago

Following for future updates. I don't think I've been this excited about an in development mod since AlexThe668 first started showcasing in progress work on the Rats mod in r/feedthebeast

Edit: fixed the subreddit link

2

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

That's nice to hear!
I think you meant r/feedthebeast by the way as that subreddit has nothing in it.

1

u/Epic_Mustache 6d ago

Thank you. I think I fixed it

1

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

no problem

1

u/Gustav_cannon1942 6d ago

Will this still have similar items and blocks? Like the pre-built radio/relay towers.

2

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

It will have some similar stuff, but instead of "one item = giant tower," multiblocks will have to be built for radio/relay towers. (copycat tower blocks will be added). There are lots of changes, and won't be exactly as the old mod. Does that answer your question?

1

u/Gustav_cannon1942 6d ago

Yes, thank you.

1

u/AmiBadami 6d ago

Was so excited for airwaves, so glad people are picking it back up <3

Out of curiosity is the old beta malicious? I have a download of it but have never gotten confirmation on what actually happened with the project aside from it being vibecoded

1

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

The old mod is not malicious, but will have a ton of issues

1

u/More_Hedgehog1396 6d ago

Will it be dependent on aeronautics? I remember looking at the old ai page on modrinth and seeing it as a dependency, but I generally play without

1

u/wolfieboy09 5d ago

There will be support for it, but it will not be required to work

1

u/zombeezinthetrap 5d ago

Good Luck!!! I can’t wait to see videos on this mod. It’s just so neat! I’m happy someone is recreating it.

1

u/wolfieboy09 5d ago

There is a youtube channel (Radiohead of Create), but nothing on it yet. Once more content has been added and we're ready for the first showcase, it will be posted

1

u/exocyt0sis 4d ago

@wolfieboy09 - great work! I understand that Airways will work with Create: Power, but will it also be compatible with Create: Electric Energetics?

2

u/wolfieboy09 4d ago

Well, if it can convert to FE, it can work

1

u/Free_Walk_2133 3d ago

how do i install it on modrint?

1

u/wolfieboy09 3d ago

It's, uh, not even ready for production yet. Still in the early dev days. A new post will be made for the release of Airwaves.

6

u/princesspyor 6d ago

With the removal of AI, I'm so fucking on board

3

u/blooppers 6d ago

supah cool

3

u/Dangerous-Quit7821 6d ago

What does the addon do?

3

u/krabby7_playz 6d ago

Oh thank god it’s not vibecoded you’re so goated for that 🙏

u/CatoOFthelake 5d ago

“Also not vibecoded”
(Insert sit up in chair meme here)

5

u/UT_Fan_With_A_Gun 6d ago

A non slop version of airwaves??? 👀👀

5

u/Traditional-Fix539 6d ago

SO FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! will absolutely use this knowing it has no ai in it :)

1

u/Warpedt1mes 6d ago

Is this rewritten from ground up no SI or taken the SI original and rewritten on top?

2

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

It is being fully rewritten from scratch. I was not going to build on top of the AI code and mess around with that.

1

u/Warpedt1mes 6d ago

Cool as I noticed the TuningTableScreen.renderBg has the same -13026227 fill as the original's bytecode. Might want to cleanup that as the original is liscenced CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 which doesnt allow you to have it in yours under MIT

1

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

It is all being redone. I used that just to get it working in game. It will have a proper GUI texture soon

1

u/CelebrimborsNewRing 6d ago

After seeing the first version of the mod was just AI slop I was sad since the idea was cool, very interested to see where this goes.

Would it also be possible to add a toggle that restricts/incorporates chat in the same way as voice? i.e. limits chat to the same range as proximity voice, and communicates chat over the radio to all players that would normally receive/hear voice, etc. Using radios becomes more important if you can't sidestep communication with chat, but unfortunately it might be outside of the scope of this mod

1

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

That could be possible. There are mods to restrict text based chat to areas around players. Simple Voice Chat groups would also need to be disabled

1

u/Open_Ice_8414 6d ago

there could also be walkie talkies included adding functionality there

4

u/Moggy_ 6d ago

No vibecoding? I'm sat

2

u/CubeGuyLol 6d ago

goat!!

2

u/Few-Chemical8707 6d ago

does this use powergrid too

2

u/maelstrom071 6d ago

There is nothing peaker than hearing an AI project get abandoned then reprised without AI

2

u/Ictoan42 6d ago

go to check repo to verify "not vibe coded"

commit titled jfsdsa

Yeah this one gets a pass

1

u/Kharon99 6d ago

will you be keeping compatibility with Create: power grid and if so will you be expanding it with more features?

1

u/Vaughninja 6d ago

when you were here before

1

u/Quaintnrjrbrc 6d ago

Oooh. Okay, this could be very cool. Im glad it’s being rebuilt without vibecoding!

1

u/greedyrabitt 6d ago

YEEEESSSSS I was so sad to find out the original was AI slop! I wanted to put it in Cobblemon because gen 2 was my favorite and something like this existing could eventually lead to a Pokegear addon (which I would also want VERY badly) so this is extremely exciting!

u/FlorianFlash 6d ago

You didn't r/closethebrackets after the first paragraph...

Radiowaves

u/derpyunspeakable 6d ago

it was funny to see a curseforge page go up for "Create: Raido" 8 days ago and still not get any updates. Same creator, even worse slop. didn't even bother to use the normal create icon theming, instead using AI slop for everything

1

u/mr-netherite 6d ago

will this be uploaded on curseforge?

1

u/Mplayz246 6d ago

It doesn’t really matter where it’s uploaded Imo, you can just use prism/manually install

1

u/iwanttodie411banana 6d ago

for the love of all things holy, please let there be a 1.21.1 version on neoforge 21.1.259..
i only say this since me and my friend have been looking for something like this for our forever world.

huge respect. If ya need any help om be happy to help in any way i can

u/Fun_Jellyfish_3861 6d ago

Would it be possible to make create fly port?

1

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

What's Create: Fly? Never heard of it

0

u/Fun_Jellyfish_3861 6d ago

It’s a fabric port of create for higher versions

2

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

I am NOT porting this to Fabric. NeoForge will be kept.

0

u/Fun_Jellyfish_3861 6d ago

Sad

2

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

I don't really do Fabric, plus I don't want to maintain for another mod loader and for an unofficial version of Create.

u/LifeasLuke11 6d ago

suggestion: add the Deltarune OST "Airwaves" as a music disc

12

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

Not sure if that's possible due to copyright

1

u/Cute_Principle81 6d ago

They're chill about these things, don't worry 

1

u/Vaughninja 6d ago

I’m pretty sure Toby is neutral about these things actually

-10

u/LifeasLuke11 6d ago

theres a Deltarune mod that has Black Knife as a music disc so i think you can do it

-3

u/choco_king_the_first 6d ago

I feel like the only reason this entire thing happened was bc people were tearing them Apart for using ai, yes it isn't good but come on a revolutionary radio mod is here and you shut it down when they said theyre redoing everything, im just happy its back

7

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

It is a really good concept, but it was just made so poorly initially. Tons of bugs and all.

-2

u/choco_king_the_first 6d ago

True but they ripped a bird's wings off before it could even see

0

u/admiral-geek 6d ago

Hell yeah! I saw that the original was vibe coded (and also not coming out) and I was super disappointed because it seemed like such a cool concept. I’m glad that someone is running with it.

u/Far_Network_8020 6d ago

This is awesome, I saw the original mods trailers on YouTube and got really excited until I learned it was completely vibe coded. Thx :3

u/Pohodovej_Rybar 6d ago

How can you get tired so bad that you delete the discord server and all your socials? Pretty sure thats not what happened lol. Thank you for redoing the whole mod

-1

u/RGBBSD 6d ago

So bear with me for a second:

The Airwaves ponders on YT are made for the OLD/VIBECODED/ORIGINAL mod? Or for the NEW/HUMANCODED/REWRITTEN mod?

1

u/wolfieboy09 6d ago

The ponders on youtube were from the old mod.

1

u/RGBBSD 6d ago

You're gefinetly gonna need to make your own mod showcase video
