Forge failing to load CustomMobSpawner

[XanderCz]

Hello,

 

my issue is that Forge keeps failing to load CustomMobSpawner(CMS) when I launch Minecraft. What it does is it actually loads it but drops it because it contains no mods.

 

Snippet from log:

2012-06-19 18:54:08 [FINE] Found a zip or jar file CustomMobSpawner 1.4.3.zip, attempting to load it

2012-06-19 18:54:08 [iNFO] File CustomMobSpawner 1.4.3.zip contained no mods

 

I've tried "injecting" the files into minecraft.jar but that did not help(also tried using MCPatcher but I believe that's the same as manually putting the files into the .jar file).

 

I've read on the minecraft forums that older version of Forge successfully loaded CMS but I can't say from my own experience.

 

 

Anyhow, here's my ModLoader.txt: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/19096959/ModLoader.txt

and ForgeModLoader.log if it is of any use: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/19096959/ForgeModLoader-0.log

 

Thanks guy, let me know if you need any more info on this.

I assume this one? http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1080677-125-custom-mob-spawner/

And if so...

 

From first post

Just download the .zip file and put it into the /.minecraf/mods/ folder

 

 

 

EDIT: I think you need a mod that uses it such as Mo' Creatures because all that is in the zip is a class file and a Java file no mod_*** anywhere

[LexManos]

CustomMobSpawners is not a mod, it is a API used by Mo'Creatures to make it's spawners. It won't load any mods from it, cuz none exist.

[XanderCz]

But that's the thing, Mo' Creatures works for me but More Creeps and Weirdos doesn't. The latter needing the MobSpawner that Texasjake95 linked.

 

What should I do, then?

[LexManos]

You should install it like it tells you to install it.

Not a forge issue.

[XanderCz]

Look, I wouldn't be posting here if I didn't do that already.

 

I tried putting it in the "mods" folder like the readme says - that just gives me the "contains no mods" message. And as you pointed out, that's not anything out of the ordinary. If I try to manually put it into the minecraft.jar file, it doesn't do anything.

 

So I thought, since some older version of Forge apparently ran this thing, you guys would be able to help me. I'm asking for help, if you can't or don't know how to help me, then say so and I'll just go about my business.

 

Thank you

[LexManos]

... If it has no damn mods

Why the hell do you expect it to load a mod?

Sticking it in the mods folder will add it to the class path

so that other mods can use it

You have yet to actually say anything thats a fucking error...

You're asking for help, when you have nothing wrong.

[XanderCz]

Jeez, fine, sorry I was hoping for someone that would actually help me with a not working mod.

 

I said I'm trying to get "More Creeps and Weirdos" to work, and that this mod needs the MobSpawner. I can see the mod is loaded in the game but it doesn't spawn any of the mobs, and I tried fiddling with the options a bit, and restarting, and creating new worlds. And since I saw that in the log that it didn't load the MobSpawner I thought the problem was in Forge.

 

So, once again, sorry for not being super-knowledgeable about how Forge works. I guess I'll need to go look for help somewhere else.

 

EDIT: Because look at this -

I FINALLY fixed it, the problem is actually minecraft forge. The currecnt version isnt working with this mod for some reason. If you google minecraft forge 3.2.3 and download that it should fix everything. Posted Image

 

Cheers

 

That's from the minecraft forums. I mean, it was working at one point.

[LexManos]

So...

You're saying that because one mod doesn't work

And another API says it has no mods

That Forge {yet again and separate party} is at fault?

 

You'll have to track down what Mo'Creeps and Weirdos is doing that is failing.

You mention Mo'Creeps once, and then immediately go back to harping that it's a Forge issue that CMS doesn't have a mod in it.

The spawning of creatures is controlled by the Mod, not by Forge.

 

[XanderCz]

Okay, bear with me here, maybe I'm just too stupid to correctly pinpoint the issue here but let me just explain my thought process on this.

 

I have two mods - Mo' Creatures and More Creeps and Weirdos. Mo' Creatures works, More Creeps and Weirdos doesn't. That one needs CustomMobSpawner to work, apparently, as the readme states. I start up a game, I see that More Creeps and Weirdos doesn't load, so I check the log and see that CMS didn't load because it's not a mod. Then when I check the minecraft forums, I see several other people are having the same problem as me, and apparently few people got it to work with and older version of Forge.

 

So with all this information that I've gathered, I thought the best place to go ask for help, is a Forge forum.

[LexManos]

The whole leap of 'so I check the log and see that CMS didn't load because it's not a mod.' And then coming here saying that its a problem is a flaw in your logic.

What you should do is contact the Mo'Creeps author, tell him to try and debug it.

Looking more into the custom spawner, and a quick skim of how it should be used shows that Forge should work perfectly fine with it.

I personally wouldn't use it because of how it's designed, but ya.

It sounds like either the CMS or Mo'Creeps author is doing something incorrectly to cause entities to not spawn correctly.

Its a problem with there mod, and it should be up to them to track it down and debug it, like a good mod author should.

 

Aside from the fact that i've gotten quite a few reports from people I talk to on a daily biases that say that Mo'Creeps works just fine on the latest versions of Forge.

 

The issue I have is your refusal to accept the fact that what I say is true.

And the ' File CustomMobSpawner 1.4.3.zip contained no mods' is NOT the cause of the problem, and it is NOT a fucking issue.

 

On a side note, you should tell the Mo'Creeps author to stop using AudioMod and use Forge's audio hooks, so the user doesn't have to install the sounds into the resources folder, it should just be 'Put this zip in /mods'

Also, holy shit, tell him to fucking use proper packages, none of his crap should be in the default package.

 

The more I sit down and look at it, the more I think the More Creeps guy is insane...

He is registering all of his ITEMS as entities...

He would benefit from learning the proper ways to do things. Tell him to come on here and we can help

 

Found the issue it's this line:

      if (minecraft.currentScreen != null) return false;

Its the MoreCreeps person being stupid. Exploiting a bug in ModLoader to do stupid stuff, this also doesn't take into account the plethora of other stupid stuff I see in his code.

 

Update: Use Forge build #142, should fix some issues related to ticking, and emulate some hackish things that some mods do {such as MoreCreeps}

[XanderCz]

I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm merely trying to explain my reasoning as to why I came here, I think I explained it pretty well in my last post but you seem to have skipped some of the details but nevermind.

 

Thanks for the reply though, I'll take this to the mod creator then.

This is really late but i need help. So, I got the custom mob spawner for the mo creatures. Mo creatures works perfectly fine without it. I thought maybe it was because of the different mods i have. I took them all out besides mo creatures and CMS. Still didnt work. I got them from the actual webstite. And well here's the error thing-
