Hello Modders!

 

Im new to forge, just recently made my huge plans for next mods, but I got stuck on such simple thing..., adding textures, I get error in Forge console, it says texture file couldn't be found and therefore it uses just a weird checkers texture..., please don't think that there is mistake in my code, I double and triple checked it, but I here it is anyways:

 

I have a java package called assets.testmod.src and I have two files there, TestMod.java, which is basically the main class, and ModInfo.java - where all the @Mod data is. I also have another package inside this package called assets.testmod.src.block, where I was adding my blocks. I have one file called TestBlock.java there.

 

 

So, TestMod.java:

 

 

package assets.testmod.src;

 

 

import assets.testmod.src.blocks.TestBlock;

import net.minecraft.block.Block;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.EventHandler;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLInitializationEvent;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPostInitializationEvent;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPreInitializationEvent;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLServerStartingEvent;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.GameRegistry;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.LanguageRegistry;

 

 

@Mod (modid = ModInfo.MODID, name = ModInfo.NAME, version = ModInfo.VERSION)

 

 

public class TestMod {

 

public static final Block testBlock = new TestBlock(3000).setUnlocalizedName("testBlock");

 

@Mod.Instance(ModInfo.MODID)

public static TestMod mod;

 

@EventHandler

public void Init (FMLInitializationEvent event)

{

GameRegistry.registerBlock(testBlock);

LanguageRegistry.addName(testBlock, "Test Block");

}

}

 

 

 

TestBlock.java:

 

 

package assets.testmod.src.blocks;

 

 

import net.minecraft.block.Block;

import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;

import net.minecraft.client.renderer.texture.IconRegister;

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;

import assets.testmod.src.ModInfo;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;

 

 

public class TestBlock extends Block {

 

 

public TestBlock(int par1) {

super (par1, Material.iron);

this.setHardness(3.0F);

this.setResistance(-1);

this.setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);

}

 

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

public void registerIcons(IconRegister tex) {

this.blockIcon = tex.registerIcon(ModInfo.MODID + ":testBlock");

}

 

 

}

 

 

 

To be more precise I put my block texture file in /forge/mcp/src/minecraft/assets/testmod/src/textures/blocks, the file called testBlock.png.

 

 

Hopefully I will solve this problem, I literally have tried everything, googled everywhere, but nothing worked for me... By the way I am using Eclipse, got JDK installed, Java 7 installed (obviously), system is MacOS X 10.8.4

 

 

Thanks for your help!

Yours faithfully,

AlenEviLL.

wrong:

/forge/mcp/src/minecraft/assets/testmod/src/textures/blocks

 

nope

 

right:

/forge/mcp/src/minecraft/assets/testmod/textures/blocks

 

 

please refer to "hydroflame guide to textures" on the wiki for further information

 

hydriflame, but testmod is the name of developer and src is the name of the mod, I know I made it quite confusing

guide says block texture goes:

 

mcp/src/minecraft/*modid*/textures/blocks/

 

 

if the mod is called "src" then remove "testmod"

hydroflame, omg thank you so much it worked!!! So I basically have to put all files in modid folder, not the mod folder itself. Thank you very much, I should have asked this question before, I stuck on this issue for two days
