Hey all,

I'm new to modding in minecraft, and have started following the tutorials at orangetutorial.com to get started with some basics. Originally, I started using eclipse since I have used it before, and got about as far as making a basic, barebones mod. About all I had changed on my own was fiddle with the mcmod.info file, and the changes were there when I launched minecraft through eclipse. But after seeing some videos I decided I wanted to give Intellij a try. I got things set up and made sure things could compile and run, then continued on with the tutorials which went into adding a block to minecraft, and giving it a texture and a name.  After adding the code described in the tutorial and running minecraft, the block was added, but still with an unlocalized name and no texture, though my texture file and lang file were where they needed to be, and were being put into the proper place in the build directory. At this point I also noticed that the changes I made to the mcmod.info file were also not being recognized. Out of curiosity, I tried compiling a jar with gradlew build and dropping it into the mods folder like I would any mod, outside the dev environment. Done this way, the block had a name and texture, and I could see my mcmod.info changes, so it seems that minecraft in the dev environment isn't able to read in resources properly. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks!

the en_US.lang file is in src\main\resources\assets\tutorialorange\lang and the texture is in src\resources\assets\tutorialorange\blocks (tutorialorange is the mod id). IntelliJ was setup by running gradlew setupDecompWorkspace --refresh-dependencies, importing the build.gradle file into IntelliJ as a project, and then running gradlew gIR to set up the run commands.

I know, right? I can see in the forge logs that it recurses through the resource folder while looking for mods, and it does say it found an mcmod.info file. At that point tutorialorange was already identified as a mod. Would that influence anything, with them being read at different times?

 

...Kind of running out of ideas xD

I see...

I noticed that in the build folder, the classes are in classes\main\<rest of file path> and resources are in resources\main\<rest of file path>. Compared to the jar file from gradlew build, where the classes\main and resources\main parts of those file paths are not present (meaning, there is the contents of classes\main and resources\main together in the jar). Could those extra folders in the build folder be keeping the mod from reading the resources properly?

Can I see the latest log and the Constants class? (Please use http://gist.github.com or any other pastebin)

This thread makes me sad because people just post copy-paste-ready code when it's obvious that the OP has little to no programming experience. This is not how learning works.

Constants class is here: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/446017088f130204e382

fml-client-latest.log is here: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/247c2769ee21f9b6e31f

latest.log is here: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/639403eea673e0b2c0d6

 

Why are the forge logs split up like that anyways? I don't remember it doing that before...

I spent a while messing the the debugger to see how FML is loading the mod and it's resources. I was able to find out that it loads the mod with directory build/classes, which is fine...but then when loading resource packs in which to find textures, the same mod location is added as a resource path. Though both build/classes and build/resources are in the classpath, build/resources is never used because no mods were found in it, while build/classes is used as the resource path because it is the mod's class path. This would explain why compiling to a .jar works, because then the class path and resource path are the same. To test, I copied my resources to the build/classes folder, and it worked. How to fix this, though, I have no clue >.>

Aside from just wanting to try something new, I was also having difficulty getting the code completion in Eclipse to work the way I wanted it to. In IntelliJ it's working perfectly xD but otherwise no particular reason. Yes Eclipse does have lots of features, but I never really used any of them that IntelliJ doesn't have. I actually like the less feature-cluttered workspace lol

After looking more closely at why it works in Eclipse, I noticed that Eclipse puts everything into a bin folder, both compiled classes and resources. This would make the class path and resource path the same, and so it works properly. So I guess now the question is, how can I set up IntelliJ to put classes and resources in the same directory?

Most of this is beyond my current knowledge so this may be a stupid question but i noticed toy setup your workspace in a way i am not familiar with.

 

the en_US.lang file is in src\main\resources\assets\tutorialorange\lang and the texture is in src\resources\assets\tutorialorange\blocks (tutorialorange is the mod id). IntelliJ was setup by running gradlew setupDecompWorkspace --refresh-dependencies, importing the build.gradle file into IntelliJ as a project, and then running gradlew gIR to set up the run commands.

 

Have you tried creating a fresh workspace and using

gradlew setupDecompWorkspace

gradlew idea

Use diesieben07's tutorial for setting up Forge with IntelliJ. Tutorial found in the tutorials section.

Don't PM me with questions. They will be ignored! Make a thread on the appropriate board for support.

 

1.12 -> 1.13 primer by williewillus.

 

1.7.10 and older versions of Minecraft are no longer supported due to it's age! Update to the latest version for support.

Well I figured it out. I knew I must have been missing something obvious, and I was...IntelliJ 14 places resources in it's own resource folder, while IntelliJ 13 places them in the classes folder. No tutorials I've seen mentioned a version, but I saw from screenshots that 13 was being used. I had just gone ahead and grabbed the latest though, and apart from the screen displayed when no projects are open, they look almost identical, so it took a while to notice. So yeah, fixed xD

Very nice find! Did you solve it without downgrading to IntelliJ 13 or is downgrading necessary to fix this problem?

You've got a funny definition of "obvious" I must say :)

      Special Armour Properties

      By DroidCrafter23 · Posted

      I am wanting to give the armour in my mod special properties, but I have no idea how to do so.   For the first armour set I want it to be the case that when the full set is worn it has the properties of a carved pumpkin, making it so you won't aggravate endermen when you look at them.    The second, and presumably harder property is that for the second set I would like it to be the case that when the full set is worn, you can walk over the void without falling. (I was considering using the levitation to accomplish this but I wanted to check beforehand).   Would both of these specialities be achievable for each armour set and how exactly would they both be done? Help would be much appreciated.

      Forge Server running fine for 20-30 minutes, then server freezes and disconnects all players but not crashed

      By Dwolfwood · Posted

      I finally got my Forge server up and running thanks to the help of the people on this forum and played fine for a day. Now since I started playing today, the server runs for 20-30 minutes then freezes and kicks everyone out but stays up and running but won't let anyone connect. Here is the latest debug log and crashlog from the server. Thank you for reading & helping   https://gist.github.com/Dwolfwoood/d0410e581c86772694f1d8007431c409   https://gist.github.com/Dwolfwoood/b5d521fd071dbfcc816949924757fef9

      one of my mods is a mislabeled version but I have no way of telling which one

      By seaberry · Posted

      I got the infamous crash log that you get when you have a mod or multiple mods that are incompatible with the version being used. however.. I have no idea which ones are wrong. I was hoping the forums could help me figure it out. does the crsh report tell me and im just dumb?
