I may have just found something, but here's the current version. Have at it Cannot access the upload path... I've pulled the mcmod.info out of my dev folder on to my desktop even but hey, here's an alternative: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/972d78e19ff2b3ada4fc

I've developed a simple mod that works seamlessly in eclipse on the client- and server-sides, yet when I export the project, as a zip and a s a jar, forge throws me this error when I load it outside of eclipse: 2014-01-08 18:12:29 [FINE] [ForgeModLoader] Examining file Zeus-1.6.4-0.1.12.1.zip for potential mods 2014-01-08 18:12:29 [FINER] [ForgeModLoader] Located mcmod.info file in file Zeus-1.6.4-0.1.12.1.zip 2014-01-08 18:12:29 [WARNING] [ForgeModLoader] Zip file Zeus-1.6.4-0.1.12.1.zip failed to read properly, it will be ignored java.lang.ClassCastException: com.google.common.collect.Lists$TransformingRandomAccessList cannot be cast to java.lang.String at cpw.mods.fml.common.ModMetadata.<init>(ModMetadata.java:107) at cpw.mods.fml.common.MetadataCollection.parseModMetadataList(MetadataCollection.java:84) at cpw.mods.fml.common.MetadataCollection.parse10ModInfo(MetadataCollection.java:76) at cpw.mods.fml.common.MetadataCollection.from(MetadataCollection.java:47) at cpw.mods.fml.common.discovery.JarDiscoverer.discover(JarDiscoverer.java:53) at cpw.mods.fml.common.discovery.ContainerType.findMods(ContainerType.java:42) at cpw.mods.fml.common.discovery.ModCandidate.explore(ModCandidate.java:71) at cpw.mods.fml.common.discovery.ModDiscoverer.identifyMods(ModDiscoverer.java:137) at cpw.mods.fml.common.Loader.identifyMods(Loader.java:353) at cpw.mods.fml.common.Loader.loadMods(Loader.java:484) at cpw.mods.fml.server.FMLServerHandler.beginServerLoading(FMLServerHandler.java:99) at cpw.mods.fml.common.FMLCommonHandler.onServerStart(FMLCommonHandler.java:350) at net.minecraft.server.dedicated.DedicatedServer.func_71197_b(DedicatedServer.java:69) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.run(MinecraftServer.java:445) at net.minecraft.server.ThreadMinecraftServer.run(SourceFile:583) (Here's the full log: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/532b9c95836aff77712d ) I've searched around, yet not found anything helpful to an actual mod file, so how might I go about fixing this seemingly simple yet annoying error?

I would recommend having a look at how it's done with the bow (in net.minecraft.item.ItemBow) it seems to use a custom iconArray in which three sprites are specified (on lines 20-22)

How might I go about disabling my mod-specific tickhandler via a command? I've got a handler that only performs its function once every minecraft day, and wanted to incorporate a command to turn it on and off. Any and all ideas are welcome EDIT: I've figured out a way to disable and re-enable it indirectly. (Instead of directly enabling and disabling via command, the command now toggles a boolean, which is checked by the handler to determine if it can continue.) LOCKED
