Problems Removing a Mod, Missing items/block and Java.io.IOException Error

Having some trouble with Forge after removing a mod, I go to load my world(s) after removing it, and I get a prompt telling me that certain block/items are missing and that if I continue said blocks/items will get removed and that a world backup will be created in my saves directory.

 

I say yes, since no takes me back to the title screen with nothing changed, and I get a second prompt saying: "The world backup could not be created. Java.io.IOException: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect." and get redirected back to the title screen.

 

When I removed the mod from my mods folder in my .minecraft folder I went into the config folder and deleted the config files for both the mod and mod dependency needed to use it out of habit, so as to avoid clutter. I know I can fix this by restoring the mod, but what can I do to remove it altogether? Is the deletion of the config files the reason for these errors?

 

Any help would be appreciated, I read the Common Problems section of the Read Before Posting thread, but found nothing matching my problem, even if it feels fairly common in my honest opinion, any feedback would be appreciated, new to the fourms so if I missed anything to post, please let me know, the mod I am trying to remove/did remove and is now causing errors is the Balanced Exchange Mod, also I use the latest 1.7.2 release of Forge.

 

EDIT: I restored both the mod files and the config files, started Minecraft and loaded my world without problem, and then exited and only deleted the mod files and restarted and reloaded my world, everything seems to be fine now, no error pop ups, seems I've guessed the problem, too much of a neat freak haha... :P

What's your operating system? Is the .minecraft directory in a normal directory or some file share? Which file system?

 

Edit: Your world name probably contained special characters, which should be fixed in the next Forge version.

      updateShape functionality deep dive

      By Sandermall · Posted

      Hello all. I'm currently grappling with the updateShape method in a custom class extending Block.  My code currently looks like this: The conditionals in CheckState are there to switch blockstate properties, which is working fine, as it functions correctly every time in getStateForPlacement.  The problem I'm running into is that when I update a state, the blocks seem to call CheckState with the position of the block which was changed updated last.  If I build a wall I can see the same change propagate across. My question thus is this: is updateShape sending its return to the neighbouring block?  Is each block not independently executing the updateShape method, thus inserting its own current position?  The first statement appears to be true, and the second false (each block is not independently executing the method). I have tried to fix this by saving the block's own position to a variable myPos at inception, and then feeding this in as CheckState(myPos) but this causes a worse outcome, where all blocks take the update of the first modified block, rather than just their neighbour.  This raises more questions than it answers, obviously: how is a different instance's variable propagating here?  I also tried changing it so that CheckState did not take a BlockPos, but had myPos built into the body - same problem. I have previously looked at neighbourUpdate and onNeighbourUpdate, but could not find a way to get this to work at all.  One post on here about updatePostPlacement and other methods has proven itself long superceded.  All other sources on the net seem to be out of date. Many thanks in advance for any help you might offer me, it's been several days now of trying to get this work and several weeks of generally trying to get round this roadblock.  - Sandermall

      crash dump

      By djdoyle1556 · Posted

      sorry, I might be stupid, but how do I open it? because the only options I have are too X out, copy it, which doesn't work and send crash report, which doesn't show it to me, also, sorry for taking so long.

      BUG: Cactus Flower Placement is BROKEN

      By Choonster · Posted

      Can you reproduce this with version 55.0.21? A whole lot of plant placement issues were just fixed in this PR.

      java.lang.IllegalStateException: Pose stack not empty

      By KenshinSpirit · Posted

      Necro'ing that thread to ask if you found a solution ? I'm encountering the same crash on loading the world. I created the world in Creative to test my MP, went into survival to test combat, died, crashed on respawn and since then crash on loading the world. Deactivating Oculus isn't fixing it either, and I don't have Optifine (Twilight forest is incompatible)
