The file name is: mcmod.info and inside it goes:

 

[
{
  "modid": "package or main mod file name, I'm not sure",
  "name": "name",
  "description": "N/A ",
  "version": "version",
  "mcversion": "version",
  "url": "Info",
  "authorList": [  "Info", "Info"  ],
  "credits": "Info",
  "parent":""
}
]
}

 

This then goes in the root of the src of minecraft.jar. I think that's it anyway, someone correct me if I am wrong.

The modid param is the Mod-ID and must be identical to the modid variable in the @Mod annotation.

description is a short description of what your mod adds / does. You can leave that blank if you want.

There's also a param named logoFile which links to the logo file in your package, e.g. "logoFile": "/logo_SAPMan.png". The logo file is named "logo_SAPMan.png" and is in your zip file (in no sub-directories).

 

EDIT: The file goes into your ZIP (in no sub-directories). I don't know how to do it within MCP, though.

Basically go into your chosen coding software, for this I'll use eclipse as an example because that's what most people use.

 

First create a new file, make sure that under the drop down it is the file option. Name it: mcmod.info and copy this code into it:

 

[
{
  "modid": "Mod ID",
  "name": "Mod namet",
  "description": "N/A Anything that is added to the mod is Subject to change",
  "version": "1.0",
  "mcversion": "minecraft version",
  "url": "http://adf.ly/CTNHg",
  "logoFile": "/logo_SAPMan.png"
  "authorList": [  "author", "author"  ],
  "credits": "Credits",
  "parent":""
}
]
}

 

Then save it in the "Src" folder.
