Okay, that's the reason I failed. Now the inventory displays work! Thanks!

What do you mean? The registration is happening in preInit. Do you mean it should be called something different?

I've been banging my head on this for so long, there really shouldn't be anything wrong with my code. Do you think you could just review the entire file to see if there's anything wrong? Here it is: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz7UTEmdVE9CUC05cklXT1h1YmM/view?usp=sharing

Alright, so I made a custom block, and here's how it looks: Don't mind the dogecoins, it was from a project abandoned long ago. The blocks are properly textured, but not the ItemBlock. This leads me to believe that there's something wrong with the way I'm doing the item model json. package com.example.examplemod; import net.minecraft.client.renderer.block.model.ModelResourceLocation; import net.minecraft.item.Item; import net.minecraftforge.client.model.ModelLoader; public class ClientProxy extends CommonProxy { @Override public void setModelResourceLocation(Item item) { ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation(item, 0, new ModelResourceLocation(item.getRegistryName(), "inventory")); } @Override public void initItemModels() { setModelResourceLocation(ExampleMod.itemDogecoinOre); setModelResourceLocation(ExampleMod.noobItem); } } I'm calling initItemModels() in preInit after I register the items and blocks. There shouldn't be anything wrong with this, should there?

Okay, so I tested with MinecraftByExample and confirmed that the src/main/resources folder MUST be marked as either source or resources root in order for it to display proper textures and localizations. Also, I added a language file to the assets folder and that applied properly.

I unmarked it as source and resources roots, and the directory tree looks like this now. I also tried renaming noobitem.json to noobItem.json with a capital I, but it seems it still doesn't recognize it. The FileNotFoundException is specifically saying that examplemod:models/item/noobItem.json is nonexistent. Does this mean there is something in Forge running something like new FileInputStream("examplemod:models/item/noobItem.json") ?

In the hand it looks like a block, and on the ground it looks like an oversize spinning block. If src/main/resources is not marked as sources or resources root, it will throw this error right before the title screen: [17:28:00] [Client thread/INFO]: Forge Mod Loader has successfully loaded 4 mods [17:28:00] [Client thread/INFO]: Reloading ResourceManager: Default, FMLFileResourcePack:Forge Mod Loader, FMLFileResourcePack:Minecraft Forge, FMLFileResourcePack:examplemod [17:28:04] [Client thread/INFO]: SoundSystem shutting down...

I made an item. It shows up in-game, but its textures are missing. Can someone help, please? My directory structure: I am using IntelliJ IDEA 2016.2.5. src/main/resources is a sources root.

How would I go about creating my own particles? I have the texture, but how do I turn that texture into a stream of particles?

Odd. I thought I had it installed. Anyways, after re-installing the JDK, it worked. Thanks!

Hello, I am running Windows 8.1 x64, with Java 8u25 JDK and JRE both installed. JAVA_HOME points to E:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.8.0_25 , the root JDK installation directory.

I want it to be a passive mob, like a sheep or cow, but cannot be tamed. I think I have the basic mob classes right, but I have no idea how to render it.

How would you do it in 1.7 then? Do you have to deal with this RenderManager class?

I'm using Minecraft Forge 1.8-8.0.12.1018-1.8, and I want to make a custom mob. I have my Techne model and textures. How would I go about creating it? The tutorials on the Wiki are totally outdated, they aren't even for 1.7.

Ah, now I get it. Thanks a lot!

What is the difference between the mod methods preInit, init, and postInit? How can I use them most effectively?

Where does the compiled mod .jar or .zip end up?

Ah, alright. Thanks.

How do I compile a mod? I'm using 10.13.0.1180. From other sources, it says there is a /mcp/reobfuscate.sh, but I have found none. Does anyone know what to do?
