I have already checked the read me first post above! The links for javadoc are broken...Can someone point me to a good place to find some documentation? It's very monotonous looking through all these packages trying to find something that I can use!

 

I have java experience already and just started modding yesterday. If there is  any veteran modder that wouldn't mind mentoring me a bit please contact me. I'm tired of programming boring stuff and would like to do something fun http://minecraftforge.net/forum/Smileys/default/angry.gif

 

Also, is there an IRC or something that some of the modders like to hang out and chat?

There is an IRC.  #minecraftforge on esper.net

 

And what links to Javadoc are you talking about?  Javadoc is in-source-documentation:

 

/**
 * This is a javadoc for a static object
 */

 //this is a comment

 /*This is a
  *multiline comment*/
public static String TRIGGER_HIT = "hitEntity";

 

 

I know what Javadoc is. This is the thread I was talking about: http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,5793.0.html.

 

It refers to http://jd.minecraftforge.net/ for documentation.

 

I just want to find some documentation. Like what you would find here: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/. I would also like to be in touch with a veteran modder to get some pointers.

See, that's why links help.  Then us helpers don't have to ask stupid questions.

 

Me, I never relied on anything posted on the web, mainly because Forge's wiki is slow and most of what I need I can find using Eclipse.

I see. Seems overwhelming! I guess scouring through packages and classes it is http://minecraftforge.net/forum/Smileys/default/undecided.gif

...Javadoc links are right next to the sources.

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks a bunch!!!

Hi

 

You might find the information on this site interesting.  It's more or less a summary of all the stuff I figured out the hard way by looking at the code.  Hopefully it might help you get the big picture faster.
