Advanced Tutorial

[Szeth_the_Great]

I am in search of a tutorial that explains how the code works, and tells me how to use the code to make mods, not a tutorial that tells me what lines of code perform specific functions. If you have an outline of things I need to learn, or better yet, if you have tutorials of that nature, please comment them below. Thank you!

(Note: I am willing to devote major time (hours every day) to learning how to mod. Please do not leave out options simply because they take time and commitment.)

Hi

 

This site

and this "tutorial by example" project

might be what you're looking for.

General understanding mostly comes from having good Java understanding and using your IDE to explore the source code. Modding is really an exercise in reverse engineering and that is more of a collection of specific topics than an overall topic. So even if it seems limiting to follow a tutorial that is very specific, if you do enough of those your knowledge will become generalized.

 

Other than that, there are several collections of tutorials that are worthwhile looking at:

- TheGreyGhost has already linked his awesome effort to provide a comprehensive example

- Bedrockminer has set of tutorials: http://bedrockminer.jimdo.com/modding-tutorials/

- CoolAlias has set of tutorials: http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/CoolAliasTutorials

- I've got some too: http://jabelarminecraft.blogspot.com/

 

We all have different approaches in teaching, also we have specialties. For example, TheGreyGhost is providing a full working example and he also specialized in things like block rendering. I like people to learn the hard way -- I give ideas but not fully working code because I think the best learning happens that way and I specialize in custom entities.

Also youtube Neale Gaming he does a nice job of this I think. -> https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCZTT2mbRpOPjIxd5qM9b8A This is his channel his series for 1.7.10 is pretty good.

 

[EDIT]

Also Mr CrayFish has ok tutorials for 1.7.10 and just started a series for 1.8 This is the first episode for 1.7.10 ->
