[1.6] Textures missing - how did I fuck this one up? O.o

[Mazetar]

Hi again!

So a quick basic question, and I know there are several tutorials and threads about how it's supposed to be done but I can't find what I'm doing wrong..

 

From what I can see I'm doing it correctly, of course I'm not else it would have worked, but I just can't spot the error Could someone who ain't blind like me point it out for me?

 

Models import fine, which is located in the "assets\mazlt\models" folder, so I can't for the life of me see why the textures won't work.

 

Screenshot from eclipse showing the explorer and block registration.

Project name is MazLearnedThis.

ModID = "mazlt"

Block textures are located at:

"MazLearnedThis\resources\assets\mazlt\textures\blocks"

 

I register the blocks icon by to (modid+":filename") as you can see in the image above.

 

So any suggestions?

Don't know.

 

But I do know that Tinypic is shit now, I suggest migrating to http://postimage.org/

[Shanedublin]

Desktop\ModMine\forge777\forge\mcp\eclipse\Minecraft\bin\assets\rusdfood\textures\items

 

That is where my textures are and it is working for me.

Bleh I'll go take a break after using forever on this, time to get som AI work done

Tinypic is full of ads now and doesn't give you direct links to the images, and if you do get the direct link (ending in .png or whatever) it still doesn't work for anyone you link it to (they still get a page full of porn ads).

[Mazetar]

Hmm didn't notice, just grabbed the direct link and tested to check it only showed the image (which it does for me) and pasted it here. I'll try to remember to stay away from tinypic in the future, thank you

I'm not sure if You have tried this, I'm not 100% sure, that it will work. I had a similar issue, and I've been really pissed off, because I was sure i do everything just like in the tutorial, so eventually I created the most basic tutorial example following it step by step, even with the names. It worked. I tried to find the difference between my mod and this simple generic tutorial, but I couldn't find any.

 

Then I messed up a little with the basic example to see how I can make it screwed again, and i turned out that UPPERCASE LETTERS WERE THE CASE. I renamed my mod folders to all lowercase, without spaces, changed modID to lowercase and it worked.

Png files themselves didn't have to be changed to lowercase, thanks God. Shitty bug if You ask me.

+1 to what Senitial said, the same thing happened to me, change your mod folder to lower case, and update the stuff in your mod code. I can't find it now, but I remember seeing someone else posting code from minecraft(not forge stuff), that pretty much translates your paths to lowercase, regardless if thats really the case.

[Mazetar]

I have everything in lowercase already, it's not a bug it's just one of the common things in the programmers world The common standard is for such things to be all lowercase.

 

Thanks for the suggestion, I re-checked all the strings to be sure

all your textures sould be in the mcp/src/minecraft/assets/modname/blocks(items, whatever)/

so you create assets folder inside the mcp/src/minecraft/

After reobfuscating the game, you copy the assets folder from src/minecraft inside your .zip file.

 

If you are not sure about the paths, check the Eclipse console. When game launches it tries to load all the icons. If the icon is missing it is going to display a message like this in the console:

 

Using missing texture, unable to load: somemod:textures/blocks/someblock.png

 

That way you can determine if you have your textures in the right place.
