Isn't that referencing the Vanilla Teleporter class? Also, to the OP, it's more helpful if you upload your code to github so we can see line numbers and such.

Here's a tutorial about making custom food, it's for 1.8, but shouldn't be too hard to fix up for 1.10, as long as you know some programming/java. http://bedrockminer.jimdo.com/modding-tutorials/basic-modding-1-8/custom-food/

http://bedrockminer.jimdo.com/modding-tutorials/basic-modding-1-8/custom-armor/ It will be slightly different for 1.10, but it should get you started. Try some stuff, and post your full code (better yet, link to a github) and what works/doesn't work. Asking for someone to give you code is a somewhat unreasonable request.

I believe this link is what I used as a start to figure out how to do it.

I'm not sure, you could try asking the authors of the mods you want to update. Or suck it up, and ditch the mods made by lazy authors, and just use current ones. Then try making replacements for the ones that didn't update. You'd find help here in Modder Support for doing that if you ran into problems, I'm sure.

Update to 1.10.2, 1.7.10 is not supported here. It says so right here in the rules: http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,20.0.html

You should post logs to a github gist or something, instead of a 10 mile long quote. Also, update to 1.10.2, 1.7.10 is not supported here, as it is old. This is clearly stated in the EAQ which is supposed to be read before posting here: http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,20.0.html

Upgrade to 1.10.2, 1.7.10 is old and not supported anymore, per the EAQ: http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,20.0.html

Update to 1.10.2, 1.7.10 is old and no longer supported. http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,20.0.html

You'll only get forums help if you're using the latest Minecraft version, otherwise chances are any help requests will be met with "upgrade to 1.10.2, using 1.x.x you're on your own" (which makes sense, if everyone did that, everything would be current.)

Try updating to 1.10.2 instead of using a really old version.

LogManager.getLogger(MODID) will return you an instance of Logger that you can use to write log messages to the console. edit: Logger#info(String) is the method you probably want

Mod IDs I believe it is advised they all be lowercase, and I also believe I have seen it said that renderers should be registered in preinit. Try changing those 2 things and see what happens

Post your code or a link to it, and the Minecraft version you're working with please

textures is spelled wrong

Awesome thanks for the info and link! Hopefully it'll help my understanding more! Any other info you or anyone else has is welcome! Aside from most tutorials out there being for 1.7.10 (I hate that version so bad), most of them are code with little to no explanation, and I'm not big on cutting & pasting code I don't understand at least mostly.

So I've mostly got my head wrapped around using an IWorldGenerator to generate ores, but I'm wondering about more information on how minecraft does world generation (dimensions/biomes/etc), and how all the classes relate to each other. I've tried looking at the vanilla code, but honestly there are so many classes I get lost and confused. Most of the "tutorials" I've found are basically just code, nothing actually explaining how things fit together and/or how they work. I'm not looking specifically for code, but more of a breakdown/explanation of how the different classes fit together and can be added/changed for custom world generation. Any advice or links would be greatly appreciated!

So, a couple things I noticed Don't use GameRegistry.registerItem, use GameRegistry.register(Object) to register pretty much everything; items, blocks, biomes Don't use Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher().register, use ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation use Item#setRegistryName before you register your item, and Item#getRegistryName instead of using getUnlocalizedName. and, I believe, the cause of the problem you're having, in your json you don't prefix your items/generic_item with your modid, that's why it's giving you an error about minecraft missing a resource, it's trying to look in the minecraft assets for your asset. *edit: And while I can clearly see the forge/minecraft version in your error log, it seems to be common practice to put the Minecraft version in the subject of your post.

Try changing ModelResourceLocation("mapoverlay:item/tutorial_item", "inventory")); to ModelResourceLocation("mapoverlay:tutorial_item", "inventory")); Looking at a simple item I made, I didn't specify the "item/" in theModelResourceLocation call.

You would want it to be /forge/src/main/resources/assets/mapoverlay/models/item/tutorial_item.json If it's throwing an error, what's it telling you?

I believe your assets should be in your resources folder, not java.

Start with simple stuff. A block that does nothing but has a custom texture. Make an item that does nothing. Make an item that's part of a recipe. Make an item that does something special/custom when you right click on it. Make a mob. Make another mob. Make those mobs hate each other and fight. Make some machines that must be manually interacted with. Make machines that are automatic. Figure out how to interface with another mod (Tinkers Construct and something that provides RF would be good choices IMO)

Did you try trimming down your loot table to make it simple, to see if it works with just dropping 1 single simple item? For example, try using the loot table I posted that just drops a feather or 2. If that works, start changing 1 small thing at a time and testing.

What was the solution?
