Textures won't load. [SOLVED]

[Robo51]

Having recently decided to try my hand at modding I've been having fun learning new things.

But now I've hit a wall, I can't get a texture to load and I can't figure out why.

 

RedCoal.java

package Newt;

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;

public class RedCoal extends Item
{

public RedCoal()
{
        setUnlocalizedName(Reference.MODID + "_" + "redcoal");
        setTextureName(Reference.MODID+":"+"redcoal");
        setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabMaterials);  
}

}

 

Reference.java

package Newt;

import net.minecraft.item.Item;

public class Reference
{
    public static final String MODID = "Newt";
    public static final String VERSION = "0.1";
}

 

Newt.java

package Newt;

import net.minecraft.init.Blocks;
import net.minecraft.init.Items;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.EventHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPreInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.GameRegistry;

@Mod(modid = Reference.MODID, version = Reference.VERSION)
public class Newt
{
    public static final String MODID = "Newt";
    public static final String VERSION = "0.1";
    public static Item RedCoal;
    
    @EventHandler
    public void init(FMLPreInitializationEvent event)
    {
    	RedCoal =  new RedCoal();
    	
    	GameRegistry.registerItem(RedCoal, "RedCoal");
    	
    	GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(Blocks.mossy_cobblestone), new Object[]
    	{
        	"AAA",
        	"ABA",
        	"AAA",
        	'A', Blocks.sapling, 'B', Blocks.cobblestone
        });
    	
    	GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(Blocks.stonebrick, 1, 1), new Object[]
    	{
        	"AAA",
        	"ABA",
        	"AAA",
        	'A', Blocks.sapling, 'B', Blocks.stonebrick
    	});	    	
    	
    }
}

 

And this is the directory tree:

 

Forge Mods\src\main\resources\assets\Newt\textures\items\redcoal.png

 

 

When I load up the test environment in Eclipse the log spits out this:

 

[10:07:21] [Client thread/ERROR]: Using missing texture, unable to load newt:textures/items/redcoal.png

java.io.FileNotFoundException: newt:textures/items/redcoal.png

 

 

 

I don't understand why the localizations are working fine, but the textures wont load.

Have you saved, and refreshed your project (I found with eclipse Luna I need to manually refresh my project for it to find resources I just added)

 

Other than that you are setting the texture path correctly.

[Robo51]

I have saved and refreshed. I even restarted and that didn't help. 

[hugo_the_dwarf]

do you have your project on git? Or somewhere I can view all of your code?

 

my only suggestion would be maybe making your ID lowercase and your mod's package to be lowercase as well

 

Newt => newt

 

don't think that is the issue but at this moment I'm spitballin' at little things that might be an issue even if they don't seem like it.

 

EDIT:

you have redcoal saved as a png that is 16x16 correct?

[Robo51]

Oh my gosh I figured it out. I feel silly.

 

I changed:

 

Forge Mods\src\main\resources\assets\Newt\textures\items\redcoal.png

 

To:

 

Forge Mods\src\main\resources\assets\newt\textures\items\redcoal.png

 

and it worked.

 

Thanks for your help.
