mcmod.info help needed


Silent

Recommended Posts

hey,

i'm rewritting my mod for forge, so i wanted to create a mcmod.info file, did that, but i'm not sure where to put it.

i've tried the core mod, mod and jar but always when the mcmod.info file is in there my mod doesnt load up?

 

would be great if someone helped me :)

 

thanks!

From my understanding it should go in the base of the zip/jar, not in the package. So if you open your zip/jar you would have

 

Modfoldername

mcmod.info

 

Additional Info

 

Make sure the file is in the correct JSON format. For Example

 

 

{

  "modinfoversion": 2,

  "modlist": [{

    "modid": "mod_Name",

    "name": "Name",

    "description": "Description of Mod",

    "version": "Version Number?",

    "mcversion": "What version of MC is this mod for?",

    "url": "Link to description or post about the mod",

    "updateUrl": "Link to update url",

    "authors": [ "Author 1", "Optional Additional Authors" ],

    "credits": "Any sort of credit you want",

    "logoFile": "link to png file, for example /mod_modname.png",

    "screenshots": [ "Additional screenshot pngs.", "example.png" ],

    "requiredMods": [ "Forge additionals can be added." ],

  }]

}

Given that this thread is only a few months old, I figured I'd ask my question here.

 

What is the update url and how do I use it.

 

That is, what is it that goes at the specified URL so that updates can be detected?

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.

 

Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked.

 

DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
