Useful Tutorial?

[sockpuppetcow]

Hi, I am COMPLETELY new to Forge modding, I've used bukkit before but Forge is still different. I have no idea what I'm doing. All of the tutorials I've found give code that does not work, for example: "import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod;". I use that, and it gives me an error, this is of course because that class is not in the "common" package. If anyone knows of a tutorial that WILL work, could you direct me to this?

The forge wiki has a bunch of tutorials...

http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Tutorials

 

Most of them are fairly up to date.

To find tutorials let me advertise my own pet project: http://www.mazetar.com/mctuts/displayTutorials.php

There you can find a bunch of forge tutorials in a searchable list

 

For beginners I would recommend the following:

 

1. Learn java http://see.stanford.edu/see/lecturelist.aspx?coll=824a47e1-135f-4508-a5aa-866adcae1111

 

2. Get into modding with forge:

Copy everything but the imports.

 

Import classes as needed (hit ctrl-O I think it is, to organize imports.  It'll automagically import any class it recognizes and will promt when there's more than one possible match).
