[HELP] Updating Textures for 1.6

[Armeleon]

I have a mod that works great on 1.5, textures and all.  I updated to 1.6, however, and it all fell apart.  Textures no longer work.  Here is how I have it set up:

 

I have one directory in the minecraft/versions folder which houses my custommod.jar and custommod.json file.  I then put the mod file in the minecraft/mods file.  Then I load up mine craft. It works fine, but the textures don't render.  Currently, I have the textures in the custom mod.jar under assets/custommod/textures/blocks , items, gui, etc.  All the same as 1.5 except for the assets.  I dropped my folder next the the minecraft folder in the already existing assets folder in the jar. Everything is lowercase. But nothing works.  I don't know why.  Is there an update tutorial I can read? I haven't found anything yet..

[adamAndMath]

wacth this vidio it helped me alot

I dropped my folder next the the minecraft folder in the already existing assets folder in the jar.

Don't, instead put your textures within your mod jar/zip file.

[Armeleon]

Thank you both for the helpful replies, but even in Eclipse the textures still don't register.

 

I have placed the texture files (for eclipse) in mcp/src/minecraft/assets/modname/textures/blocks or items etc.

I have tried changing my @Init method to @PreInit or @EventHandler with no success

I register my icons using modId + ":" + unlocalizedName().substring(5)

 

Also, When the error appears in the output, it says: "unable to load: modname:textures/blocks/texture.png.  Every variable is correct, and the file exists in the right location.  But it is not being loaded. I know I am missing something obvious.  Can anyone tell me what step I left out?

Use @EventHandler

This is a wrong error message. Textures should be loaded anyway.

[Armeleon]

Alright. I've changed that part.  But the textures are still not being loaded. I know that it must be  bug in my code that happened during the switch to 1.6, but I don't see it.  Can anyone see it in any of my classes?

This question has been asked way too many times. You guys do realize there is a search bar on this forum?

 

http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,10549.msg54130.html

 

^^^ for all your texturing needs, just skip down to my first few comments on that post.

 

[EDIT] also after reading your code I need to inform you that your blocks and everything else should all be done in preInit

[Armeleon]

It worked! Partly.  I finally got my textures into Eclipse! Thank you. You are the only person to tell me the right location for my assets folder, everyone else has it all wrong.  But when I export my mod and play it in Minecraft, where do I put them? I have a .zip, and I've tried .zip/assets/modname/textures/blocks etc. but that doesn't work.  Can you tell me the location for the build version?

 

Here is what I have tried:

 

I have package modname in which all my class files are.  In order for these files to work, they have to be in a zip folder of the same name, so their package declaration works.  Parallel to this package I have package assets.  I have tried putting this package next to the zip folder in the mods folder, but that doesn't work. I have also tried putting it in the zip folder, but that doesn't work either.  Thoughts?

[Yagoki]

should be the same, if you look at the zip for the builds for my mod that should give show you. Make sure yours are the same, but with your paths.

 

link in the sig below

[Armeleon]

Excellent. I think I understand. I need a zip folder, and in that zip folder I need to have an assets folder and a directory that matches the package structure in eclipse.  However, when I run Minecraft on it, it crashes because it can't find the main class file.  According to forge, the package root needs to be the name of the zip folder. But then I can't connect it to assets.  Does that make sense?

[Yagoki]

I think I understand what you're saying, if I've massively misinterpreted it then sorry, it's late where I am.

 

the zip folder can be called anything. normally you call it something logical, such as modname_version.zip but it could be anything. In there you put the packages exactly as they are in eclipse. so you would have "assets.*" and all other packages at that level. this should all work. but let me know if it doesn't work and provide me with logs and screenshots of the packages and zip folders.

[Armeleon]

You understood me.  However, forge does't like that structure.  Here are the screenshots.

 

This is my mod structure:

 

Notice that my package directory is on the same level as assets.  (And yes, I changed the space to an underscore, oops)

 

This is the error I am getting:

 

More detail:

 

I know how to fix it.  I just have to move my package structure up one level, and make spelunking the name of the zip.  But then I can't get assets to be on the same level.  What am I doing wrong?

[Yagoki]

could you paste your current main class here, the package declaration in the one you posted below is not the same as the one in your zip, it's confusing me and is stopping me from being able to help properly

[Armeleon]

My bad. I was experimenting with a couple things.  Basically, I just got rid of the mod folder and made it simply spelunking.  So it says package spelunking;

Not got too many Ideas I'm afraid 

 

you could try changing your @Instance to

@Instance(Flora.modid)
new Flora instance;

 

that may be worth a shot, currently just comparing differences between my main file and yours.

 

[EDIT] also you can change the @PreInit to @EventHandler.

Not to get off topic, but that difference doesn't work for some reason.  Do I have to place it outside the class? It doesn't like the 'new' declaration. Deleting it (so it reads 'Flora instance;' instead of 'new Flora instance;') gives me no errors. But thank you.  Thank you so much for all your help. Hopefully I will find the answer somewhere.

well here's my main class if you want to have a look through it and see if you can tell what's different:

Well. I solved it. And you will never guess how. For some reason, with a mac, it will not work as a zipped folder.  It just won't.  I accidentally left it unzipped before starting, and it worked.  Textures and all. Thank you for everything, again.
