Well.. I like my things to organized (depending on what it is), especially when it comes to coding, I aligned the biome by when I add them and their ID numbers. What Minecraft is doing is this http://i1319.photobucket.com/albums/t661/Nova_Leary/Reason_zpsifv9tv1n.png[/img] This is completely opposite to what I have in my code so it is confusing for me

Will that delete my current coding in the workspace?

Darn I was hoping that I could fix that since my biomes are asorted in a way that if they were organized in alphabetical order, it would be very confusing

Oh and I modifed the code since I found an easier way to make the configurations package common.zeroquest.core.handlers; import java.io.File; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; import net.minecraftforge.common.config.Configuration;

if (config.hasChanged()) { config.save(); } } } But the game seems to be organizing the configurations alphabetical order still

When I open up the mods tab and open up the configurations, the game has organized them alphabetical order, not in the order I have it in the code

hey, I'm having a bit of trouble organizing my configurations. I'm trying to get the biome configurations to aline as I have them ordered in the code.

It's all on my Github. ECLIPSE is telling me that the case has to be constant here case IDs.Nillax: generateNillaxDimension(world, random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16); case IDs.Darkax: if (Constants.DEF_DARKLOAD == true) { generateDarkaxDimension(world, random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16); }

The problem is, in my WorldGenerator, it says that the ideas have to be constant, but I have to have the IDs not constant in order to have them configurable.

I looked at that mod already, they use weights instead for their biomes

Hey, is it possible to make configurations for biome and dimension IDs? If so, how do I do it? Some mods like Biomes O Plenty and Twilight Forest achieved this. I already have set up a configuration file that can accessed in game through the title menu on my Github: https://github.com/NovaViper/ZeroQuest/tree/master/src/main/java/common/zeroquest

Hey, I noticed that eclipse is acting up, and by acting up I mean that it is not detecting any of my mod coding in the build path. On the Problems tab in Eclipse, whenever I have an error, it comes up like this http://i1319.photobucket.com/albums/t661/Nova_Leary/Eclipse%20Errors_zpstbwyhon7.png[/img] Notice how I do have errors but they are not showing up in the package explorer and the build path isn't my common.zeroquest path. Also, I'm running the 11.14.2.1430 build for 1.8. I have these errors in the Error Log tab also. http://i1319.photobucket.com/albums/t661/Nova_Leary/Eclipse%20Errors%202_zpsatllb9fl.png[/img] Yes, I know that this has NOTHING to do with Forge but I've been having major problems finding errors and going to classes to spot them since they do not show up anywhere in Eclipse, which makes it extremely difficult to mod. Anyone know how to fix this?

I know it has nothing to do with forge, I was just asking if there's a way to fix it. And yes, I have wiped it out, several times in fact and still have the same result

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Anyone?

Also, I have these errors also http://i1319.photobucket.com/albums/t661/Nova_Leary/Eclipse%20Errors%202_zpsatllb9fl.png[/img]

Oh guys! I got a question, is it possible to transfer a SketchUp model to Minecraft? Blender is a pretty complicated program but I am familar with SketchUp (as I have used it to create models to 3D print).

Lol and yeah, I've used that tutorial also, but I couldn't get the animation to flow smoothly

Here, I used this tutorial to master the addChild methods: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding/mapping-and-modding-tutorials/1571589-modding-animation-guide I also did trial and error and finally got them correct.. but still need help with advanced animations

Definitely, especially when it comes to the addChild methods for animations

Yeah, it's pretty useful and easier to use for visualization, but should I at all, use it? Even just to use it to get the numbers to model them using the method jabelar recommends us using for animation?

Hey, it looks like someone did use blender with some help from MCAnimator and techne to create this http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding/minecraft-mods/modification-development/2328217-blender-for-minecraft-modeling-anonmine-models

Hey, what about this program called Blender?

Welp, time to go for trial and error

Hm.. Have any tips on how to build an animator like this one or similar to it?
