My en_US.lang localization is not working.  I think it has something to do with how I set up forge or eclipse because I just started a new project and workspace.  Is there something I need to do to make eclipse or forge look for the assets in the right location when I start a new project?

 

I created a folder; unzipped the forge mdk; then opened a new eclipse workspace pointed at the eclipse folder.

src\main\resources\assets\<mod>\lang

 

But I had to create the assets folder and I could have sworn it is normally there... maybe I'm just totally overlooking something.

Can I assume <mod> = to your modid in the @Mod annotation?

LOL well that worked thanks!  But why???  All lowercase is a requirement?

It will be in 1.11, but is not now

My suspicion was this was your @Mod(modid="modparadox"...)

but your path was assets.modParadox...

and you were naming the path after your class name (your Main Class file should be ModParadox if you follow naming convention).

It looks like the lowercase might just be coincidence.  While we were talking I had also added another item with just the most bare basic code to test.  I can now see that the problem is that the first line of my en_US.lang file is not being read for some reason.

 

When there was only one item in the file it didn't localize.  When I added another item, the second item localized but not the first.  If I just type garbage on the first line of the file and push everything down a line, they both localize.

Post your lang file.

It just doesn't read the first line.  This localizes nothing:

item.Wand.name=Magic Wand

 

This localizes Wand but not TestItem:

item.TestItem.name=Test Item

item.Wand.name=Magic Wand

 

This localized Wand and TestItem:

as;lkdjas;ldkj

item.TestItem.name=Test Item

item.Wand.name=Magic Wand

Minecraft uses 

ResourceLocation

s to load assets, which automatically converts your mod ID to lowercase. This means that your assets folder must also be lowercase. Paths on Windows systems are case insensitive, so you may not notice this in the development environment; but paths on Unix-like OSes and in JARs are case-sensitive, so you will definitely notice it in the release environment.

 

It just doesn't read the first line.  This localizes nothing:

item.Wand.name=Magic Wand

 

This localizes Wand but not TestItem:

item.TestItem.name=Test Item

item.Wand.name=Magic Wand

 

This localized Wand and TestItem:

as;lkdjas;ldkj

item.TestItem.name=Test Item

item.Wand.name=Magic Wand

 

Are you saving the file as UTF-8 with the BOM? I'm pretty sure Minecraft expects UTF-8 without the BOM.

Please don't PM me to ask for help. Asking your question in a public thread preserves it for people who are having the same problem in the future.

      RAPID DIGITAL RECOVERY IS THE FUTURE OF BITCOIN RECOVERY AND SECURITY

      By jaysonwilfred12 · Posted

      Reach Out To Rapid Digital: What sapp Info: +1 41 4 80 7 14 85 Email INFO: rap iddi gita lrecov ery @ exe cs. com Hello, my name is Jayson, and I’m 35 years old from the United Kingdom. My family and I recently endured an incredibly challenging experience that I wouldn’t wish on anyone. We became victims of a cryptocurrency investment fraud scheme that saw us lose a staggering $807,000 in USDT and Bitcoins. The fraudsters had created a convincing facade, and we were lured into investing, only to discover later that the platform was a complete scam. We were left devastated, not just financially, but emotionally, as we had trusted these people and believed in the legitimacy of the investment. After the initial shock wore off, we desperately searched for ways to recover the lost funds. It seemed like an impossible task, and we felt as though there was no hope. That’s when, by sheer luck, we stumbled across a post about Rapid Digital Recovery, a cryptocurrency and funds recovery organization with a proven track record in cybersecurity and fraud recovery. We decided to reach out to them, and from the first interaction, we were impressed with their professionalism and transparency. They explained the recovery process in detail and reassured us that they had the skills and expertise to track down the perpetrators and recover our funds. This gave us a renewed sense of hope, something we hadn’t felt in months. What truly stood out during our experience with Rapid Digital Recovery was their dedication to the recovery process. The team went above and beyond, using sophisticated tracking tools and cyber forensics to gather critical information. Within a matter of weeks, they had successfully located the funds and traced the scam back to the fraudsters responsible. They worked with the authorities to ensure the criminals were held accountable for their actions. To our relief, the team at Rapid Digital Recovery was able to recover every single penny we had lost. The funds were returned in full, and the sense of closure we felt was invaluable. We couldn’t have imagined such a positive outcome in the early stages of our recovery journey, and we are deeply grateful for the work they did. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation, I highly recommend contacting Rapid Digital Recovery. Their expertise, transparency, and dedication to their clients make them the go-to choice for anyone seeking to recover lost cryptocurrency or funds. They truly gave us back our financial future.

      [1.21.4] Could not resolve LocalPlayer.sendSystemMessage

      By Cherry05 · Posted

      This is my first time modding anything, so maybe just skill issue. I'm using Forge 54.0.12 and Temurin 21.0.5+11-LTS I wanted to create a custom keybind and to check whether it works I'd like to send a chat message. I tried using Minecraft.getInstance().player.sendSystemMessage(Component.literal("test")); but IntelliJ couldnt resolve sendSystemMessage(...). Since I saw people using it in earlier versions, I tried the same thing with 1.20.6(- 50.1.0), where it works fine, now I can't figure out if this is intentional and whether there are other options for sending chat messages. On that note, is there more documentation than https://docs.minecraftforge.net/en/1.21.x/? It seems very incomplete compared to something like the Oracle Java docs
