This makes me sad...but I guess we can always look forward to Cube World .

I wasn't aware there was much in the way of modding for Terraria, though honestly I never looked; I'm pretty happy with what's there. Well, now I'll have a reason to give it a look. While I'm a little to sad to see Redigit leave Terraria, it's totally understandable. Besides, there's plenty of content there for people to be happy with. At least, I think so.

[Nathaniel]

Yeah, it is plenty. It was plenty with the initial release, and it was plenty more with the 1.1 update. Things eventually stop updating, as they eventually have to move on to other games.

Instead of making a new thread, I'll use this one.

It's coming to the consoles. Now if the consoles get new content (beyond what the PC version has), then the PC version should get it too, otherwise this would be completely stupid. Who wants to buy an entire console for one game?

Awesome! I wonder if we'll be able to start a new server on it.

[Nathaniel]

I am curious about that new content, assuming it is also included in the PC version. Until then, if I play any more Terraria in the time I have on weekends, I shall see if any new maps or mods come to my interest.

I still haven't modded my version. Not in fear or anything, but I just wasn't interested in going through all the installations and stuff. Have you already tried a few?

[ShadowTiger]

The installations and moddings were very worth it, I assure you. I'm not experiencing any crashes out of nowhere, and the new content is outstandingly worth it. I'm having a blast with Scooterboot's Metroid Mod.

I'm not sure what the new content will be, but I have the strangest feeling that they are dramatically overhyping this, and the new content will be minimal.

I have tried a few mods. If you download the newest versions of game launcher and tconfig, that should take care of any pre-downloads for nearly all mods that exist. Depending on how the mod is, some use just game launcher, and some use both game launcher and tconfig.

Game Laucher allows you to pretty much launch the vanilla game as well as either tconfig or other mods that don't use tconfig. So when you open terraria through steam, it doesn't just immediately launch the game, but rather it launches game launcher, giving you the option to either launch the vanilla game or something else.

Tconfig is also opened through game launcher, and is referred to as "the mod of mods". For any mod that uses it, it allows you to pretty much turn on or off any mod settings that you wish, at any time. So indeed you can launch multiple mods at once if you wish. Thus for any map you play, you only activate the mods that you wish to activate, provided it's a tconfig mod. Bear in mind that tconfig uses a separate save list, and you are not limited to just five maps from the designated folder. The maps are not named worlds 1 through 5, but rather what you choose to call each world.

I still run vanilla myself, and haven't reached a point where I really want to mod it yet.

Instead I'm tossing hallowed all over the place to keep corruption away. Say what you will, I actually find Hallowed easier to deal with *in addition* to not looking like a wasteland.

[ShadowTiger]

Looks like Redigit is back!

But for how long...

[Koh]

I'm not going to do ANYTHING, until I see something happen. Actions speak louder than words. I wouldn't get your hopes up until an update ACTUALLY comes.

[ShadowTiger]

Hopes? When did I start having hopes? I'm looking forward to Starbound. Terraria is just tiding me over.

Actually Serious Sam 3, King Arthur's Gold, Freelancer's Crossfire 1.9 mod, Rage, Gnomoria, and Dreams of Yesterday are tiding me over. Terraria is just sitting there in a pretty skirt.

I was recently poisoned by gifted this game courtesy of Dan. I'd be happy to play with you guys if you guys are still playing it.

[Nathaniel]

I'd still play multiplayer, if opportunity knocks (Saturdays are always best for me). I have my Hamachi server still intact, despite my lack of usage of it over the past few months. I'm pretty much no longer playing it solo, but I would still enjoy it in the company of others.
