Six thousand nine hundred and fifty two. Over in the Mystcraft thread on the Minecraft forums we had an account for posting answers to common questions at the top of each page and the mods told us to stop.

Pick any major feature and screenshot that. Add text. Don't use comic sans. Done.

Gee golly willakers, you never checked to see if the item the player has in their hand is an ender pearl.

Yes. And it's not easy. Take a look at how vanilla handles dyed leather armor. You can also take a look at this class (1.7.2) or this class (1.6.4). The absolutely most important thing to understand is: Vanilla color multiplies a "base" armor texture, then renders a second overlay texture. If the second texture is not transparent, then the colored bits won't show through.

Don't register your recipes in preInit. Because of the way you've structured your mod, you can't insure that the class that is creating the blocks has created and registered them yet. Move your recipes to Init or PostInit.

Show your main class.

GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(ARepo.ICobalt_door, 1), new Object[] { "#cc", "#cc", "#cc", Character.valueOf('c'), CMStuff.cobaltwood }); Uh. You know that blank spaces in the crafting grid are defined with SPACES right? The crafting manager is trying to figure out what the # means and can't find it. Also you don't need to do new Object[] because of the way the recieving function is programmed: addRecipe(ItemStack result, Object...) That ... means that any parameters beyond the specified ones are already accessible as an array. GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(ARepo.ICobalt_door, 1), " cc", " cc", " cc", Character.valueOf('c'), CMStuff.cobaltwood); BAM. Also, that "character of" bit can also be removed. In Java 'c' is a character already (whereas "c" is a string).

Then by golly gee. If you can't figure out how to not-render a side then you might have to make an icon for it then. Because one is not provided for you, because Vanilla--like a sane system--simply just does not draw quads when something needs to not be visible.

OH NOE! LEARNIN' THIN'S! THE HORROR! Seriously. Packets are not that hard.

shouldSideRender { return false; } ?

Internally datawatchers use packets. Ergo yes.

Veovis actually figured it out. ^..^ I just borrowed his work. http://binarymage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=13045#p13045

From one of my projects String s="someFileName"; File rendersFolder = new File(DimensionManager.getCurrentSaveRootDirectory(), "LinkRenders"); FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File(rendersFolder, s)); DataInputStream instream = new DataInputStream(fis); nbt = CompressedStreamTools.read(instream); //reading CompressedStreamTools.write(nbt, new File(rendersFolder, s)); //writing instream.close(); fis.close();

Don't use the LanguageRegistry. http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,15636.msg79415.html#msg79415

@SubscribeEvent public void tick(ClientTickEvent event) { ... } ?

I believe it was replaced by an event handler.

block.setBounds The bounding box is what's used to determine if the block is inside your view. If your model is bigger than the bounds, then of COURSE it'll stop rendering when the bounds leave the view. That's what it's FOR. Now, if you have a block/model that's significantly larger than 1 cube, you should break it up into multiple blocks (you can still have it be one item in the player's inventory, but as far as the World is concerned it's actually several blocks, think pistons).

This reminds me of Risk Legacy. There's a packet labeled "Do not open. Ever."

Are you sure that largePowerCore is defined? Also, you don't need the new Object[]{} bit. The parameters of the recipes are declared as object... , meaning that it already comes in as an array. Oh, I know what the problem is. Here's one of mine GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ShapedOreRecipe(new ItemStack(BlockPedestal.instance,2), "ggg","g g","sss",'g', thinglass, 's', "stone"));

One, by not using TickEvent.ClientTickEvent as you should be checking server side. Two, by putting code into that function. (Oh, I'm sorry, did you mean to ask "how do I get a reference to the world here?" Well, if you're using the right tick type, you should be passed a reference to the player, which as an entity, contains a reference to the world)

Do instead if (block == null || block.material == Material.air) The first one checks to make sure the block isn't null (to avoid null reference errors) the second check checks to see if the block that is there is of the material air, because with mods there can be blocks that should be treated like air, but are not air. (Gasses, technical lighting blocks, etc.)

Packets are not that hard.
