Hi all,

 

  The end objective here is to play a video in minecraft.  Where i'm stuck currently, is finding resources (ie a picture or video) in my assets directory.  Here is a test I've borrowed from another question to return a filepath to me, but it doesn't work.  The function to test (or eventually play video) will be called from my GUI on a button press which I have also posted.

 

Test for video's existence:

 

package com.mycompany.mymod;

 

import java.io.IOException;

 

import net.minecraft.client.Minecraft;

import net.minecraft.client.resources.IResource;

import net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation;

import com.mycompany.mymod.Main;

 

public class FileAndResourceLocations {

 

public static void testFile(String location) {

 

String modid = Main.MODID;

 

try {

IResource iresource = Minecraft.getMinecraft().getResourceManager().getResource(new ResourceLocation(modid + ":" + location));

StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();

int ch;

while((ch = iresource.getInputStream().read()) != -1){

builder.append((char)ch);

}

System.out.println(builder.toString());

} catch (IOException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

System.out.println("didn't work");

}

}

}

 

GUI:

 

package com.mycompany.mymod_content.client.gui;

 

import java.io.File;

import java.io.IOException;

 

import org.lwjgl.opengl.GL11;

 

import com.mycompany.mymod.FileAndResourceLocations;

 

import net.minecraft.client.Minecraft;

import net.minecraft.client.gui.GuiButton;

import net.minecraft.client.gui.GuiScreen;

import net.minecraft.client.renderer.Tessellator;

import net.minecraft.client.resources.IResource;

import net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation;

 

import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;

 

public class GuiTreasureMap extends GuiScreen{

 

private GuiButton a;

private BufferedImage img;

private int imgID = 5006;

 

 

@Override

public void drawScreen(int mouseX, int mouseY, float partialTicks) {

 

 

this.drawDefaultBackground();

 

    GL11.glColor4f(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F);

    this.mc.getTextureManager().bindTexture(new ResourceLocation("mymod:textures/gui/treasure_map2.png"));

    int x = (width-(256))/2;

    int y = (height-(256))/2;

    drawTexturedModalRect(x, y, 0, 0, 256, 256);

   

    this.fontRendererObj.drawString(treasure_map_txt, this.width / 2 - 25, this.height / 2 - 75, 0000);

    this.fontRendererObj.drawString(treasure_map_txt2, this.width / 2 - 100, this.height / 2 - 45, 0000);

    this.fontRendererObj.drawString(treasure_map_txt3, this.width / 2 - 40, this.height / 2 - 35, 0000);

    this.fontRendererObj.drawString(treasure_map_txt4, this.width / 2 - 103, this.height / 2 - 25, 0000);

    this.fontRendererObj.drawString(treasure_map_txt5, this.width / 2 - 65, this.height / 2 - 15, 0000);

//  this.fontRendererObj.drawString(treasure_map_txt6, this.width / 2 - 100, this.height / 2 - 0, 0000);

   

super.drawScreen(mouseX, mouseY, partialTicks);

}

 

 

@Override

public boolean doesGuiPauseGame() {

return true;

 

}

 

@Override

public void initGui() {

 

this.buttonList.add(this.a = new GuiButton(0, this.width / 2 - 100, this.height / 2 + 90, "Back To Game"));

   

}

 

@Override

protected void actionPerformed(GuiButton button) throws IOException {

    if (button == this.a) {

       

    //Main.packetHandler.sendToServer(...);

    //java.awt.Desktop.getDesktop().browse(java.net.URI.create("http://wwwgoogle.com"));

    //java.awt.Desktop.getDesktop().open(new ResourceLocation("mymod:textures/gui/treasure_map2.png"));

    FileAndResourceLocations.testFile("textures/gui/GuiTreasureMap");

   

       

   

    this.mc.displayGuiScreen(null);

        if (this.mc.currentScreen == null)

            this.mc.setIngameFocus();

    }

}

 

 

private String treasure_map_txt =

"";

private String treasure_map_txt2 =

"";

private String treasure_map_txt3 =

"";

private String treasure_map_txt4 =

"";

private String treasure_map_txt5 =

"";

//private String treasure_map_txt6 =

 

}

 

When I run this I get a FileNotFoundException:

You need to include the file extension in the ResourceLocation constructor. e.g. "mymod:path/to/texture.png" not "mymod:path/to/texture"
