1.6.4 Custom Music Discs troubles

[MasterDewie]

ok so i feel really dumb asking about this stuff but i am at my wits end because i am not fluent with Java so its tough to make out what half of the stuff is.

 

ok so my issue is i am making a little modpack for me and my buddies and i wanted to add a custom Music disc with a song they made on it... i have made the song into a .ogg file and i made the texture and i declared the item everything works EXCEPT when the disk goes in it wont play the song...it wont give the little message that says its playing. i definitely need help before i run out of hair to pull out

 

 

Here is my Main Class:

now i am not sure if i am posting the code correctly but this thing is kind of tough to work with for me as it is almost 4 in the morning over here...

 

here is my "itemRecord" class

 

https://gist.github.com/anonymous/8080452

 

this is all i have for the music discs... I'm sure i am missing something important about a soundLoader and SoundHandler or some stuff but i just cant understand how to put it in what it means and when it throws up an error how to fix it... man if i could just get this i feel like i would be able to do ANYTHING

 

 

any help is greatly appreciated!

I tried having it as an ItemRecord but the class is protected.

so i made a new class called BSItemRecord and making sure all proper imports were made

 

so instead of calling the minecraft record class i called my own and THEN called minecraft classes.

 

 

also... if it wasnt a record how does minecraft let it inside the jukebox?

now im super confused. i tried accessing ItemRecord but i got errors saying that its not visible... so when i went in and changed "protected" to "public" on the original ItemRecord all my issues went away... HOWEVER, that was with the original ItemRecord class i was trying to access so i didnt want to change that.

 

why is a moderator trying to make me feel stupid for asking people to help me with a problem i obviously dont understand? i would have thought a mod would be MORE helpful than regular members, not a complete jerk for no reason...

 

 

and for the record, i have a big textbook on java that i have been reading from since i went to school for computer networking so please dont insult me for not being fluent in java... in fact that was the disclaimer i made in the beginning of my post!

 

 

 

 

WILL ANYONE WHO CARES ABOUT HELPING MEMBERS HELP ME INSTEAD OF THIS GUY?

[MasterDewie]

thank you for the code you posted it helped me realize a mistake i made in my code

 

 

one of the first things i did in my original post was state that i am not fluent in java... we are kinda just repeating it...

 

this is the only place for me to go to find the help i need without having to stop EVERYTHING I AM DOING and read an entire book on Java, which is approximately 1300 pages long. im not saying that i know Java cause i dont... i have already called myself out on it in my original post

 

but again, thank you, you helped me a bit

[MasterDewie]

this is actually not getting anywhere at all. i tried putting the code you gave me in but i dont know where to put it without it throwing me a bunch of errors i dont understand. and i have learned not to post any questions here because instead of helpful answers i will get rude criticism on my inability to program.

 

i appreciate what help i have recieved
