Hello MinecraftForge..

 

Im currently back to modding and trying to update our Mod to 1.9.4.

 

I would like to ask if there is any. about the changes like  replacing of classes  that occur from 1.7.10 to 1.9.4 Like

 

Example there is this

Model Bakery that register the blocks and use the json for Models

 

The new Capabilities which replace IExtendedEntityProperties

The ITextComponent that replace ChatComponent if that was it?

 

There i would appreciate if somenoe post all of the replacement because right now i just import my own development from Github via as gradle project.

 

Sadly whenever i open declaration every method in my codes directing to the Minecraft i end up Source not found at eclipse

 

well i did this setupDevWorkspace but no work.

 

Thank you

I highly recommend downloading fresh copy of MDK and rewrite mod from scratch.

Additional opportunity to fix old issues maybe.

 

It's been 2 years since 1.7 came out, so pretty much everything from that code is useless.

 

As to direct questions: (in order)

1. There are plenty of tutorials on json format and basic block/item setup.

Additionally: http://mcforge.readthedocs.io/en/latest/blockstates/states/

 

2. Caps:

Recent thread: http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,40495.0.html

 

3. There were more changes regarding text formatting, but that is base of it.

 

4. "All replacements" - not only is that impossible because of sheer amount of them, but because a lot of stuff wasn't just replaced, but totally redesigned. I'd seriously consider rewrite from scratch to freshen your skills.

 

5. Again - fresh MDK is always nice.

 

6. Points of interest:

and new registry system, which pretty much converges to something like this:

And like... everything regarding rendering requires rewrite.

 

7. Btw. go straight to 1.10
