I am trying to learn how to create armor for minecraft using mc forge, but I ran into some difficulties. All tutorials I watch add .setIconCoord() and .setItemName() to the end of the new armor, but when I attempt this, it gives me an error.

 

 

I am using mcforge version 7.7.0.605. For this test project, I am working on making gold-trimmed diamond armor.

 

GoldTrimmed.java (Main Class)

gDiamondArmor.java (Armor Class)

Thanks

OH GOD WHY

 

All tutorials I watch add .setIconCoord() and .setItemName() to the end of the new armor,

 

please, dont use NotePad++

Please, use eclipse.

please, use your fucking brain, 1.5 has individual textures, use setUnlocalizedName("");

and blabla bla.

i'm out. good luck.

main difference :

 

Notepad++ lets you type text.

Eclipse lets you type text, notifies you if you have any errors, has tools to auto-import classes you need, has hotfixes if you have any errors, it has a tools where you can test minecraft IN eclipse, so no need to recomp every time, etc etc etc ...

 

Gosh, people these days.

 

I think you're wrong, you SHOULD use Eclipse.

 

please.. Don't try to act professional without Eclipse.

 

Reason? If you are professional why are you watching YouTube videos?

 

The fix is.

Replace all .setBlockName or .setItemName to .setUnlocalizedName

 

The unlocalized name is your texture, that means you can remove .setIconCoord() and all the other texture stuff.

 

If you have for example

 

testBlock = new TestBlock(222, 0).setUnlocalizedName("testBlock");

 

It would be located in :

 

Minecraft.jar's :

textures/blocks/testBlock.png

 

If it is a ITEM then:

 

testItem = new TestItem(8000).setUnlocalizedName("testItem");

 

It would be located in :

 

Minecraft.jar's :

textures/items/testItem.png

 

 

 

SWITCH TO ECLIPSE!

 

ALSO, YOU HAVE TO USE "recompile.bat" EVERYTIME YOU EDIT THE CODE!

 

ECLIPSE AUTOMATICALLY DOES RECOMPILE FOR YOU! AND IT IS FAST!

why people alawy want the easiest way??? people should use clipse when they are beginers(or when they will create an android program)i make my mods with n++ and its good, also the textures dont need to go into de jar just put in mcp/eclipse/minecraft/bin (if u start from eclipse) or mcp/bin/minecraft(if u start from startclient and startsever bat).

"ALSO, YOU HAVE TO USE "recompile.bat" EVERYTIME YOU EDIT THE CODE!"

wrong if he uses eclipse he can just copy and paste the recompiled code to the mcp/bin and then just use reobfuscate bat.

ProTip:

in your mod zip/jar u need to create a folder mods and then a folder yourmodname and then a folder called textures and then a folder called items (same for blocks just change items to blocks)
