Okay it seems that I disappeared for quite some time. Sorry…
In a few days I’m going to publish a larger post about whats going on :/
I will try to explain a few things and the main topic will be of course about the future of mod development.
And since there are a lot to cover in this, I will also try to announce a milestone list on around when and what should be done.
Well not just for modding but for everything. But what most of you are interested in I shell try to highlight it more. Also I will try to make for this an actual vlog.
Basically a schedule plan in long run again. Of course it wont be fixed but only a rough plan, since as experience tells that things mostly never turn out as initially planned XD
This will be closely the same as I used to make the “term plans” but this time it should be more consistent? Or I don’t know how to say this 😛
And again sorry to all who also wait for a reply from me. I will contact everyone who waits for a reply as soon as I can.
I know that this update took quite some while, and probably the next one will too.
I will now change how I do the update review videos.
I made a new series for the mod update reviews, and I will use the vlogs to just everything else I guess.
Sadly I was not home the past few days, if I would have been home then I would have released the update on Friday :/
I’m sorry about it. I wanted to release it.

About the updates. I basically try to explain everything in the video.
But a short written version of it might help to those who can’t understand me 😛
I will call the expression Stamina now ActionTime to represent what i think fits it more but Im not sure yet about this.
I need more time to think about it but i will try to use this for the time being.
Attribute upgrades got now the long awaited attribute upgrade multipliers +10 +100 +1000 in the char sheet.
And there is a nice little visual, made with a number transition system. Basically when the BP changes, it looks awesome! XD
At least that’s how I feel about it 😛
The main feature of the update is the Super Saiyan Blue Evolution.
I will call it SSB Shinka because its shorter and I like the Japanese version more.
I managed to tweak the aura, and it looks now a lot better I think 😀
Thou no particles yet, but those will come eventually.
Since the Ultra instinct will need it anyway.
Now to the actual way how you can get the SSB shinka.
In the end I didn’t add the GodKi skill, but with reason.
Since i was not home the past few days, and because I was not sure on some details, I couldn’t talk about it much 🙁
So no new skill called GodKi and GodForm skill stays as well. Sorry bout it.
There is Super Saiyan Rosé Shinka, but the Rosé form is acquired differently from now on.
The SSRosé for saiyans in evil alignment got removed. You will need the divine status effect to transform in to SSRosé
If you have it, it means you are divine beings or from divine origin for the time being.
This status effect as of now wont be acquirable in single player through normal means, one have to use the status effect command jrmcse to get it.
Similarly how legendary status effect is given.
It doesn’t have time limit, but might get one later.
Also Status Effect Divine allows one to sense “divine ki” basically you will be able to sense others true Battle power while they are in a god form. Because as you know, if you are not in god form or if you don’t have GodForm skill at least, you can’t sense others true Battle power while they are in a god form.
About the next update I shell post about it hopefully within a week.
Update needs public testing!
As long as the update is shown unconfirmed, I advise not to use em!
Write in comment if there are any issues.
Well the question now is, as I already put up a vote about it, should I release now, or not. The next update will include SSB evolution and an SSRosé evolution too. I’ve made a vlog about this! So please for more information for the time being, please watch it. I hope it’s not that bad XD Let me try to summaries roughly the content of the video:
There is a new ANT(AboveNameTag) text, which shows your transformation’s name.
SSB Shinka
SSRosé Shinka
Minor SSB aura change?
New skill
New configs
And some minor visual changes.
Hmm well there might be something i forgot, but nothing special.
More specific things will only be released in the actual update post, or in a later status info post/vlog for next time.
Anyway here is the vlog, hope you like it.

Okay so I think its decided what should be worked on.
I wont release the current minor update because of lacking content, and also because the next priority has been decided.
And well I know this is something that it is a sensitive matter for a while now, but I think the best would be going with the flow and let it go.
I understand the frustrations some will feel, but I was convinced! missing forms are needed.
While there are fair points why forms should be left alone already, there are many arguments that supply the fact that they are actually needed.
Not to mention custom forms might still be a bit later.
I have been planning a lot lately as always, but sadly not extensively for my main mods.
Probably many are wondering wtf is going on. Well even if you have followed me for quite some time, you might still be a bit lost on what is going on.
And I’m not sure myself how to explain 🙁
like “Why the f**k Jin is not giving more major updates”
Its not like I don’t want to believe me.
Things have changed drastically compared to a few years ago.
There are serious issues at hand that must be bothered with, and can’t be ignored anymore.
My goal is to give again major content updates!
That is the what I’m working towards to, to accomplish it again.
Future deciding Polls are going to start on patreon with this https://www.patreon.com/posts/18742046 Later also about how some new forms should actually work.
If you want to be part of JinGames, now you will have the chance.
Here is an application form and many positions can be applied to. Even to positions that doesn’t even exist yet XD
But at the moment its not the final version of it and I also need your help in pointing out the errors or wrong parts of it.
Just contact me about it somewhere 😛

Well It took sometime but it seems I managed to make my Patreon page!
Now I wont be told “why i didn’t make a patreon yet…”
I will also share this link on most of my website, and consider trying including it in my mods?
It seems this patreon page was inevitable as things are now.
Its not just that the traffic is decreasing now, but the ads themselves are not appearing because of google and I can’t do much about it.
So since this whole year, ads don’t work as they worked before.
Basically everything is against us. And patreon will be yet another desperate try to see if things could change to the better.
Well I don’t want to tell anything what I already talked about since things just go worse by time even since last time.
I will believe in Patreon’s potential for now and we will see what we can make of this.
Basically the past weeks were me going around and making sure how patreon could possibly work in my country.
Also I’ve started to get into discord at last, well at least I try to.
Its not easy because I never was the person that likes to talk to people and I don’t really want to spend more time on conversations then necessary :/
Every minute, hour I spend on talking, even posting like this could be spent on coding and since that would be my goal, it is really frustrating when i check back what I have done the recent year 🙁
But now to the Topic you are here for XD
About the next update
obviously fixing the last stupid crash issue
changing how swoop works -> no more double tap -> bout time ay? sorry…
ki fist and protection switchable
projectile ki infuse skill? maybe?
fall damage turn back on when on 0%?
might cause an uproar again? hmm I will listen to the arguments regarding this as well before the update.
and hopefully some action menu changes
Update will be release on Monday late night? like somewhat more then 24 hours counting from this post. (On April 30)
Well if patreon will be successful, then finally things could go a lot faster.
Or else i will have to consider switching my current position from modder to server network owner and developer Oo
And JinGames shell go towards a new future where JinGames server network will born, where i develop server sided mods exclusively for our server network :/
Well that wont mean the end of the mods since they will still get updates!
But there will be addon mods to the current ones and only available for our server network. Well basically what other servers do that are not really affiliated with JinGames directly.
Basically I will have to do the same.
EDITED on April 13, 2018
Qucikfix! for JRMC and a minor change for DBC
Thou they weren’t crash tested, sorry
I think I’ve done a great job on making the group system compatible with the current mission system.
It was yet again not an easy task but I figured most of it out XD
That’s what I do all the time so yea nothing new about this fact, its just feels good to talk about it sometimes 😛
Then again since it was just finished, there are probably some holes in the system which can be misused, but eventually it will get better.
I already know a few things I want to fix for this.
And then there are a few other things that were added, more in the changlog section of this post’s.
Also I’ve prepared a few polls again, I will await your votes 🙂
Know more in my video below
Please accept YouTube cookies to play this video. By accepting you will be accessing content from YouTube, a service provided by an external third party.
Okay so it seems the update might be ready for Wednesday night!
or not… we will see…
There are still a few things I will need fix up before release, but if everything works out, the promised points should be added and probably work.
So lets see what the update will probably have
DBC new Item – Power pole
DBC 2 new dinos (models by Dragonmatic)- basically the same as the first dino, just with other model for now
fixes
Family C – Female models not working without one of 3 mods (DBC, NC, SAOC)
probably a group system fixtry
2 new melee weapons – just some simple ones like the z sword, nothing extra.
new shenron model, as seen in the Teaser #2
Group system compatibility with the current mission system – with a mission share feature similar to how it was in the previous mission system, but a bit different. Also since this made some changes in the mission system, new errors and glitches might appear as usual.
What else?
well since there was not enough time, I was not able to work on the new ki attack stuff, so more on that one in a later post.
Polls

To be honest I never liked the idea of giving more configs to change the default values, and I still don’t like it, but yet I still try to add more and more when I get to a point because people ask for it.
Loading ...
btw Waiting could still take weeks or even months to get to it? Unless I show Teaser vids about new aura possibilites, they are still in the ‘soon’ list. 🙁
So the update is still not ready and I want to ask a question in a poll before I release the update.
Basically is enough for the next update this few additions or do you want to wait more for some more.
Currently the next update will have:
DBC new Item – Power pole
DBC 2 new dinos (models by Dragonmatic)- basically the same as the first dino, just with other model for now
fixes
Family C – Female models not working without one of 3 mods (DBC, NC, SAOC)
probably a group system fixtry
What might you get if you wait more?
some new weapons
making sure the group system works
new model for Shenron
I can work more on the new ki attack animation and other stuff and so give more teases later?
there are some other things I could add but I’m not sure if they are ready thou. Need more experimenting.
It seems like something is missing?
Hmm well I wont make an april joke this year, because everything I had in mind was a bit harsh, I guess.
Poll
Should I release the update now or wait a week more?
I can wait (more info in a next post) (59%, 1,628 Votes)
I need it, even if its little (Update on late night Monday in that case) (35%, 957 Votes)
Damn Days just fly like crazy -.-
Where should I begin.
About DBC Update
new mobs, various dinos (models by Dragonmatic)
new item, Power pole
a try to make group system compatible with the mission system
and some minor fixes
hmm more will be revealed on release, since I dont know if anything more will make it just yet.
Just experimenting with some new ways for mechanics for ki attacks, and probably even revamping them completely.
*barrage ki attack here i come*
I was really inspired by the fights again, and with my current knowledge I just might be able to create a lot better ki attack system.
After all the current one is more then 2 years old or so XD
It is really time to change that since its very useless for pvp at its current state
Thou if anything succeeds, and I really could make it better, then I will make a post before the update to ask in a poll what should happen next.
About NC
Well the Naruto C mods future doesnt seem so bright. I’m not sure if I add any great stuff would make it more used. So for now, Let me just ask you to tell me what you think in the polls about this too.
About everything else
Also Im trying to actively check the Bug reports forum more frequently. So be sure to write your issues down with all the details you can share.
Well I’m not sure but it seems many didn’t understand why there is the supporters site, it should be looked at basically as a Patreon site or should I call it patron site instead of supporters?
Ah anyway, There are still a lot of website development needed and there are several website projects like the mission system, resource pack sites that i would liked to work on, and there is also the redesigning of the download site as well and for several other ones.
And since site development also takes tons of time, it will be still hard to optimize the work schedule on what is more important to work on.
Since the websites need the ads to work and since modpacks and servers take most of the traffic, I do have to consider to work more on website projects that could potentially benefit somewhat to the JinGames Network.
And some more blabla
So some things might change soon. I have some help and I try to depend on others more now, but I dont want to go overboard.
Also I was thinking on making some mini mods. Any suggestion for mini mods are welcome!
This decision is because I make too much complex stuff that requires more time, thus actually if i would take like DBC apart, many features could also stand alone as their own mini mods.
Like the Scouter for example. There is a whole new revamp plan for it, and the scouter could get better then ever before with a lot of visual changes.
And actually this way some mods could be more versatile and mobile through mc versions and maybe even appointing specific persons to work on some of them.
So I have a plan to make an easier way for me to create/update mods for the most used mc versions.
Anyway for the next few months things wont change much, because the new mods probably wont be released as soon as something is made, like how Naruto C and SAOC ended up, but I will try to make teaser videos about them and only release after certain milestones have been reached.
And finally to the polls.
