[1.7.10][SOLVED]Including external libraries in mod

Posted October 13, 201510 yr

I want to build a mod using an external library. I was wondering if there is a way to have it packaged inside my mod upon building it, or do I have to distribute the library as a separate jar with my mod? For ease of distribution, if there was a way to have it packaged into the same jar as my mod, I would want to do that. Thank you!

Creating a resource pack

I found out that run/resourcepacks and src/main/resources/ serve different purposes.

Resourcepacks

In run/resourcepacks/ you can add assets for existing parts of the game. E.g. to overwrite the texture of the vanilla creepers:

run/resourcepacks/
└── myresources
├── assets
│   └── minecraft
│   └── textures
│   └── entity
│   └── creeper
│   └── creeper.png
├── pack.mcmeta
└── pack.png
7 directories, 3 files

The content of pack.mcmeta:

{ "pack": { "description": "My resources", "pack_format": 64 } }
For the pack_format for your version of MC see:
https://minecraft.wiki/w/Tutorial:Creating_a_resource_pack#Pack_format
pack.png is optional.
You do not have to zip the contents.
Resources
In src/main/resources you put the resources, i.e. client side assets, server side data, for your mod. E.g.:

src/main/resources/
├── META-INF
│   └── mods.toml
├── assets
│   └── myfirstmod
│   ├── items
│   │   └── banana.json
│   ├── lang
│   │   ├── de_de.json
│   │   └── en_us.json
│   ├── models
│   │   └── item
│   │   └── banana.json
│   └── textures
│   └── item
│   └── banana.png
├── data
│   └── myfirstmod
│   └── recipe
│   ├── my_first_shaped.json
│   └── my_first_shapeless.json
├── pack.mcmeta
└── pack.png
13 directories, 10 files

did you ever figure out if it was a mod conflict or something else causing the crash during rendering? Sometimes even just updating or downgrading one mod can fix weird errors like that. I'm curious what your mod list looked like when this happened.
