I am delving into the wondrous world of 1.8 modding and I am trying to figure out this new item rendering thing. I have everything set up, however, on launch I get this line. Does it just mean I have put the JSON file in the wrong place, or the texture or something?

I am supposed to be using "gradlew jar" to build the parent mod, then placing it in the eclipse/mods folder right? I feel like I have missed something fairly obvious... thanks for the help though.

Created a completely new folder and setup everything from scratch without the flarDir block and still get them same problem. I have tried reinstalling Eclipse too but it is literally when I add the mod.jar in the libraries bit, I get the error, but I have to do this to access the mod.

That didn't do anything, I really don't know what is going on, it was all working yesterday.

Okay, I have everything done and I understand what I am doing now, but there is just one problem left. Whenever I add my mod to my dev environment I get the error on launching that says I have mod sources that are duplicate within my system, however, I am using a fresh environment with only the example mod.

That seemed to just make it crash when trying to build. Should I not be copying that exactly.

I got it working thanks, but now I am just wondering how to access any of the classes inside the parent mod as it just appears as a .jar file.

Thanks for the explanation, I do appreciate it. So the problem I was having before was because the method was obfusacted? (func_77655_b) If so then how can I create a deobfuscated version myself, like the dev versions of other mods as the mod I want to use doesn't have a dev version? Is it even possible? Thanks in advance

Ahhh right thanks What is the difference between the dev and the regular versions, I am now curious??

Okay, how can I get one of these forms then if I had permission to use the original mod? Sorry if I am not making any sense just never done anything like this before.

Anyone know of any tutorials that might help or anything?

Still getting the exact same crash on launch... anything else I can try?

So you mean make a libs folder alongside all the other folders like eclipse, gradle and src etc, or somewhere else? Thanks for the help though.

Well I put it in the mods folder but it crashes when it starts up saying: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.blocklings.items.ItemTab.func_77655_b(Ljava/lang/String;)Lnet/minecraft/item/Item; at com.blocklings.items.ItemTab.<init>(ItemTab.java:12) at com.blocklings.main.Blocklings.<clinit>(Blocklings.java:44) No clue what would cause this as that item doesn't even exist.

I will try that then, thanks. Not sure then if I need to do the decompile thing then... we shall see.

I want to create a mod addon and understand I need to have the parent mod installed into my current environment but I can't seem to figure out how to do it. The tutorial I found refers to MCP and its directories which I don't have. It says I need to decompile the mod and then place it into forge/mcp/jars/mods/ which is nowhere in my setup. Can someone steer me in the right direction as I am lost.

I used NBTTags in 1.7.10 to save variables within an item class by using: itemStack.stackTagCompound = new NBTTagCompound(); However, it appears to have changed in 1.8 and I don't know what to.

I get this crash whenever I try to run the game...

Are you referring to: tasks.addTask(3, new EntityAIAttackOnCollide(this, 1.0D, false));

How do I stop my entity from targeting players, I just want it to attack mobs.

Okay, that should be fine, thanks for clarifying things.

Sorry, it is an Item array list, is that okay?

I have an array list that I need to write to NBT for my entity but I don't know how to do it, if you have an idea I would be grateful if you'd let me know. Thanks in advance.

It's to so I can use the level variable in my model class for animation. Am I doing it wrong??

I have used CatDany's packet handling example and it works fine when I use it like this: @Override public void onLivingUpdate() { super.onLivingUpdate(); IMessage syncLevel = new SimplePacket.SimpleMessage(level); level++; System.out.println(level); PacketHandler.net.sendToServer(syncLevel); } However, when I use it in this method, which is called every time my entity attacks, it doesn't have an effect anymore: public void checkLevel() { if(xp >= 100) { level++; xp = 0; IMessage syncLevel = new SimplePacket.SimpleMessage(level); System.out.println(level); PacketHandler.net.sendToServer(syncLevel); } } If someone could explain what I am doing wrong so I can fix it, that would be great.
