Questions about getting started with Forge modding

[kingkoronov]

Are there any complete, up-to-date (1.11) tutorials or docs on how to use the forge API?

[Choonster]

There's a list of tutorials here. Some of them have been updated to 1.11.x, some of them are only on 1.9.x/1.10.x but the versions are fairly similar.

@Choonster Is there a tutorial for how to create custom entities in 1.11? Mostly I'm stuck because I have no idea how to get the game to render the custom entity. I copied the creeper class to modify explode(), but now the custom mob renders as a white box.

You need to register an entity renderer.
