I have been getting into modding recently and have no idea how to even get started adding items to loot tables. I might be able to figure out how to make one, but when it comes to simply removing or adding to them in my mod i cannot seem to figure it out. Does anybody have any forbidden loot table knowledge they could share with me?

What are you trying to do?

Create your own loot table, or modify an existing loot table?

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

From existing loot tables.

 

Ok.

 

Subscribe to the LootTableLoadEvent.

 

And then do magic.

 

And by magic, I mean I figured most of this out by trial and error and a single existing post on the forums.

If anyone else has any advice on how to do this better, I'm all ears.  My biggest complaint/issue with the loot table system is that in order to detect a given loot table, I need to compare strings.

And how would you do that differently? Use an number-based ID?

 

I don't have an alternative. I don't know. But I can still not like it.

The other thing that I had trouble with, was being able to see the JSON equivalent of what I was doing.

That is, I couldn't figure out how to write my changes to a file.  I'm sure there's a way, I just couldn't figure out how.

Reflectively get the value of LootTableManager#GSON_INSTANCE and call Gson#toJson() with it, passing in the LootTable that you want serialised.

Ah, cool.  I'll try and remember that.

I'm done doing my manipulation, and everything works the way I want, but there was a lot of poking around in the dark.

      [Forge 1.21.4] Can't use EntityModel<T> OR HierarchicalModel and SetupAnim

      By Maxime66410 · Posted

      Hello, for several days I've been trying to find a way to add my animations in this style. @Override public void setupAnim(Entity entity, float limbSwing, float limbSwingAmount, float ageInTicks, float netHeadYaw, float headPitch) { }   My current public class is : public class FakePlayerModelWithAnim<T extends FakePlayerEntity> extends EntityModel<EntityRenderState>   But i can't do that :  public class FakePlayerModelWithAnim<T extends FakePlayerEntity> extends EntityModel<T> Type parameter 'T' is not within its bound; should extend 'net.minecraft.client.renderer.entity.state.EntityRenderState' But with EntityRenderState it ok and it work !   But my setupAnim look like this :  @Override public void setupAnim(EntityRenderState p_370046_) { super.setupAnim(p_370046_); }   I don't have any access to my entity ! Look like 1.21.1 : @Override public void setupAnim(FakePlayerEntity entity, float limbSwing, float limbSwingAmount, float ageInTicks, float netHeadYaw, float headPitch) { this.root().getAllParts().forEach(ModelPart::resetPose); this.applyHeadRotation(netHeadYaw, headPitch); this.animateWalk(FakePlayerEntityAnimations.ANIM_PLAYERS_WALKING, limbSwing, limbSwingAmount, 2f, 2.5f); this.animate(entity.idleAnimationState, FakePlayerEntityAnimations.ANIM_PLAYERS_IDLE, ageInTicks, 1f); } But i'm stuck with new version of Forge...

      cant fix internal server error - 1.20.1

      By powers lizzy · Posted

      I added some new mods and updated old ones to my forge server and they will run successfully but the moment I try to join ill briefly load into the world and get booted with the message, internal server error. The mods in question work fine on singleplayer and removing too many from the server causes it to stop working so I cant be sure which one is causing the problem... any ideas? server log: https://pastebin.com/hGH8UUjm client log (from modrinth app): https://mclo.gs/a3oOUGY
