I'm using 1.6.2 Forge, and I was wondering where I put my textures and what method I place into my Item class for the texture.

@Override
public void registerIcons(IconRegister reg){
	this.itemIcon = reg.registerIcon("yourmodid:texturename");
}

 

on your hard drive: mcp/src/minecraft/assets/yourmodid/items/texturename.png

or

mcp/src/minecraft/assets/yourmodid/blocks/texturename.png

yourmodid must be all lower case

Hydroflame is invalid

hydroflame is valid

Would this work too?

 

    @Override

public void registerIcons(IconRegister reg)

    {

   

this.itemIcon = reg.registerIcon("deathman12e3." + this.getUnlocalizedName() + ".png");

 

}

@Override

  public void registerIcons(IconRegister reg)

    {

      this.itemIcon = reg.registerIcon("deathman12e3"+":" + this.getUnlocalizedName());

  }

 

no .png and you NEED ABSOLUTELLY 100% FOR SURE a colon ":" between your modid and your texture name

You can also put this at the end of your item constructors:

.func_111206_d("yourmodid:texturename")

Your textures MUST be in mcp/src/minecraft/yourmodid/textures/items/texturename.png

If you do not have those folders already, create them!

 

I have this in my error log

 

2013-07-25 11:52:27 [sEVERE] [Minecraft-Client] Using missing texture, unable to load: deathman12e3:textures/items/item.woodPaxel.png

 

 

Here's a little folder tree

 

src

>minecraft

>>deathman12e3

>>>textures

>>>>items

>>>>>woodPaxel.png

deathman12e3:textures/items/item.woodPaxel.png

 

src

>minecraft

>>deathman12e3

>>>textures

>>>>items

>>>>>woodPaxel.png

 

you can figure this one out ?

I already tried renaming it to item.woodPaxel. I have no clue what to do, do I need items/item/woodPaxel?

deathman12e3:textures/items/item.woodPaxel<- says its looking for the file names: "item.woodPaxel"

 

src

>minecraft

>>deathman12e3

>>>textures

>>>>items

>>>>>woodPaxel.png <- there is no file named "item.woodPaxel"

 

---

deathman12e3:textures/items/woodPaxel

 

OR

 

 

src

>minecraft

>>deathman12e3

>>>textures

>>>>items

>>>>>item.woodPaxel.png

 

Renaming it to item.woodPaxel doesn't do anything :I

That is because the string is truncated before the ".". It is reserved for removing the file extension, don't use it.
