Custom item doesnt have texture [RESOLVED]

[FishSauce]

I made a custom gun called a pulse rifle and the texture isnt loading. I know that I have the right texture path set. Here is my main class code:

 

 

        public static Item pulseRifle;

 

        pulseRifle = new mymod.items.pulseRifle(0, "pulseRifle").setCreativeTab(MyCreativeTab_1).setMaxStackSize(1).setTextureName("pulseRifle.png");

        GameRegistry.registerItem(pulseRifle, "pulseRifle");

        LanguageRegistry.addName(pulseRifle, "Pulse Rifle");

       

 

And here is the class code:

 

package mymod.items;

 

import mymod.entity.EntityRifleBolt.EntityRifleBolt;

import net.minecraft.client.Minecraft;

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;

import net.minecraft.init.Items;

import net.minecraft.item.Item;

import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;

import net.minecraft.world.World;

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

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

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;

 

public class pulseRifle extends Item {

 

 

 

 

 

 

    private String texturePath = "mymod:";

   

    public pulseRifle(int ItemID, String textureName)

    {

        super();

        this.setUnlocalizedName(textureName);

        this.setCreativeTab(mymod.main.Main.MyCreativeTab_1);

        texturePath += textureName;

        }

 

  @Override

  public ItemStack onItemRightClick(ItemStack par1ItemStack, World par2World,EntityPlayer par3EntityPlayer) {

      if(par3EntityPlayer.capabilities.isCreativeMode||par3EntityPlayer.inventory.consumeInventoryItem(Items.redstone))

      {

          par2World.playSoundAtEntity(par3EntityPlayer, "random.bow", 0.5F, 0.4F / (itemRand.nextFloat() * 0.4F + 0.8F));

          if (!par2World.isRemote)

          {

              par2World.spawnEntityInWorld(new EntityRifleBolt(par2World, par3EntityPlayer));

          }

      }

          return par1ItemStack;

      }

  }

 

Thanks for any help!

This is pretty basic stuff, there's tutorials everywhere...

 

setTextureName(MODID + ":pulseRifle");

 

Then put your graphic in the right folder...

 

Again, I don't feel like writing a tutorial that's been written 1000 times, but that's the jist. Google is your friend!

Except I did google it, I had been googling it for like an hour. Everything else worked without this code though.

Ok, I tried it. It still has no texture.

Post your updated code.

private String texturePath = "mymod:";

   

    public pulseRifle(int ItemID, String textureName)

    {

   

        super();

        this.setUnlocalizedName(textureName);

        this.setCreativeTab(mymod.main.Main.MyCreativeTab_1);

        this.setTextureName(mymod.main.Main.MODID + "mymod:");

        }

 

  @Override

  public ItemStack onItemRightClick(ItemStack par1ItemStack, World par2World,EntityPlayer par3EntityPlayer) {

      if(par3EntityPlayer.capabilities.isCreativeMode||par3EntityPlayer.inventory.consumeInventoryItem(Items.redstone))

      {

          par2World.playSoundAtEntity(par3EntityPlayer, "random.bow", 0.5F, 0.4F / (itemRand.nextFloat() * 0.4F + 0.8F));

          if (!par2World.isRemote)

          {

              par2World.spawnEntityInWorld(new EntityRifleBolt(par2World, par3EntityPlayer));

          }

      }

          return par1ItemStack;

      }

  }

I literally copied that code, put it in there, and changed all the stuff to work with my setup. Still does not work.

I hate to be that guy, but I would suggest reading the tutorial, not just copying the code. And I would suggest posting your code and maybe even telling us where you put your texture. However I would assume if you can't follow a tutorial then you can't follow a forum post. This forum is for helping point people to a solution, not for getting a mod written for you. I feel you have more than enough information to solve this issue.

Why do you assume I am not doing what you are telling me to do? I am doing everything in the tutorial and everything you are telling me yet nothing is working!

[strumshot]

Because when you say you have an issue you don't post the code, and then when you do post the code its not in a code tag, and because you still have an issue.  Post your custom item, your registration in the main file, and a screenshot of your file structure, and then I can tell you if you have done what I, dies, and the tutorial have suggested...

I fixed it, all I needed to do was add  @Override 

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

 

    public void registerIcons(IIconRegister iconRegister)

    {

        this.itemIcon = iconRegister.registerIcon(texturePath);

    } 

 

[FishSauce]

You don't need that. All you need to do is fix this line:

this.setTextureName(mymod.main.Main.MODID + "mymod:");

 

The error is pretty obvious.

I tried everything with that line that I could think of, nothing worked. But this did.

[hugo_the_dwarf]

Only time I ever override registerIcons is when I have more than one texture for something (mainly items that have subtypes)

 

like diesieben and strum have been saying, just fix

this.setTextureName(mymod.main.Main.MODID + "mymod:");

 

I will give an example of how I set a texture:

 

weaponSwordSoul = new ItemSwordSoul(ToolMaterial.EMERALD)
			.setCreativeTab(Rot.tabRoT).setUnlocalizedName("weaponSwordSoul")
			.setTextureName(Rot.MODID + ":" + "weapons/soul_sword");

 

my folder path looks like "src\main\resources\assets\rot\textures\items" the bolded letters being my MODID

now when I'm setting this texture I have a folder called "weapons" in my "textures/items" path. Do you need to do that, No.

 

how you would do it:

pulseRifle = new mymod.items.pulseRifle(0, "pulseRifle").setCreativeTab(MyCreativeTab_1).setMaxStackSize(1).setTextureName(mymod.main.Main.MODID +":"+"pulseRifle.png");

 

I am quite sure every other modder on here is looking at me, and my post going Don't do it for him.

 

I have followed those tutorials and all my items work fine, and if doing the right way is not working for you, you have your resources in the "wrong" place
