So I have put the assets for the textures in the folder and have put the en_lang.lang in as what my items and creative tab labeled why is it not working?

Cause I didn't put it in yet.
I made a mod in the past as the style your seeing now in 1.12.2 I prefer this way but what's causing the file from giving its correct name is something overriding if you can please tell me that info I will be good!

Posted

Well, I'm not having errors with the code. I'm using it perfectly fine. I just need to know why the textures are not applying. And the lang file doesn't apply. The side proxy stuff etc. Has nothing to do with textures or lang file!

"I want what I want and nothing else" is not a good attitude to have.

 

Many new modders fall into pitfalls perpetuated by mod tutorials made by other new modders, some of these issues snowball into bigger issues down the road while others just encourage bad programming habits. When someone tells you to fix these issues you should take the time to learn from the mistakes of those who came before you, even if it means admitting that the tutorial you've been following is wrong.

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.

Spoiler

Logs (Most issues require logs to diagnose):

Spoiler

Please post logs using one of the following sites (Thank you Lumber Wizard for the list):

https://gist.github.com/100MB Requires member (Free)

https://pastebin.com/: 512KB as guest, 10MB as Pro ($$$)

https://hastebin.com/: 400KB

Do NOT use sites like Mediafire, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, or a site that has a countdown before offering downloads.

 

What to provide:

...for Crashes and Runtime issues:

Minecraft 1.14.4 and newer:

Post debug.log

Older versions:

Please update...

 

...for Installer Issues:

Post your installer log, found in the same place you ran the installer

This log will be called either installer.log or named the same as the installer but with .log on the end

Note for Windows users:

Windows hides file extensions by default so the installer may appear without the .jar extension then when the .log is added the log will appear with the .jar extension

 

Where to get it:

Mojang Launcher: When using the Mojang launcher debug.log is found in .minecraft\logs.

 

Curse/Overwolf: If you are using the Curse Launcher, their configurations break Forge's log settings, fortunately there is an easier workaround than I originally thought, this works even with Curse's installation of the Minecraft launcher as long as it is not launched THROUGH Twitch:

Spoiler
  1. Make sure you have the correct version of Forge installed (some packs are heavily dependent on one specific build of Forge)
  2. Make a launcher profile targeting this version of Forge.
  3. Set the launcher profile's GameDir property to the pack's instance folder (not the instances folder, the folder that has the pack's name on it).
  4. Now launch the pack through that profile and follow the "Mojang Launcher" instructions above.

Spoiler

 

 

 

or alternately, 

 

Fallback ("No logs are generated"):

If you don't see logs generated in the usual place, provide the launcher_log.txt from .minecraft

 

Server Not Starting:

Spoiler

If your server does not start or a command window appears and immediately goes away, run the jar manually and provide the output.

 

Reporting Illegal/Inappropriate Adfocus Ads:

Spoiler

Get a screenshot of the URL bar or copy/paste the whole URL into a thread on the General Discussion board with a description of the Ad.

Lex will need the Ad ID contained in that URL to report it to Adfocus' support team.

 

Posting your mod as a GitHub Repo:

Spoiler

When you have an issue with your mod the most helpful thing you can do when asking for help is to provide your code to those helping you. The most convenient way to do this is via GitHub or another source control hub.

When setting up a GitHub Repo it might seem easy to just upload everything, however this method has the potential for mistakes that could lead to trouble later on, it is recommended to use a Git client or to get comfortable with the Git command line. The following instructions will use the Git Command Line and as such they assume you already have it installed and that you have created a repository.

 

  1. Open a command prompt (CMD, Powershell, Terminal, etc).
  2. Navigate to the folder you extracted Forge’s MDK to (the one that had all the licenses in).
  3. Run the following commands:
    1. git init
    2. git remote add origin [Your Repository's URL]
      • In the case of GitHub it should look like: https://GitHub.com/[Your Username]/[Repo Name].git
    3. git fetch
    4. git checkout --track origin/master
    5. git stage *
    6. git commit -m "[Your commit message]"
    7. git push
  4. Navigate to GitHub and you should now see most of the files.
    • note that it is intentional that some are not synced with GitHub and this is done with the (hidden) .gitignore file that Forge’s MDK has provided (hence the strictness on which folder git init is run from)
  5. Now you can share your GitHub link with those who you are asking for help.

...Yes, yes it does. The server doesn't know what "textures" are, its a client side only task...which is what proxies are for.

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.

Not all of the things listed were the issue to my problem which is offtopic matter this code worked before. Cause I made this code I just replaced the words that needed to be. I just asked what caused it. Not everything that's that issue with my whole mod

Did you fix the issues and is the error still happening? If so, post updated logs.

The links I posted are issues that must be fixed for your mod to function properly.

There only issue there was is the json was done wrong. AND the en was named wrong. SO next time do not put your options in cause I didn't have to do it.

Posted

Well, I can I came here for one topic and that was Why it wasn't showing up. Not about my code style... And people do not like it when people talk about other things then the subject they want to talk about. And it's my opinion.  Not an attitude. On I feel on how the staff is treating the support very wrong.

Posted (edited)

If you just want to add simple items into the game, you can use mods like ContentTweaker instead of making a mod.

If you want to make a mod properly, you have to learn Java and proper design pattern unless you want to break things.

 

"No obvious errors" does not mean the code works fine. Just like a person not being dead doesn't mean he is perfectly healthy.

Some tips:

Spoiler

Modder Support:

Spoiler

1. Do not follow tutorials on YouTube, especially TechnoVision (previously called Loremaster) and HarryTalks, due to their promotion of bad practice and usage of outdated code.

2. Always post your code.

3. Never copy and paste code. You won't learn anything from doing that.

4. 

Quote

Programming via Eclipse's hotfixes will get you nowhere

5. Learn to use your IDE, especially the debugger.

6.

Quote

The "picture that's worth 1000 words" only works if there's an obvious problem or a freehand red circle around it.

Support & Bug Reports:

Spoiler

1. Read the EAQ before asking for help. Remember to provide the appropriate log(s).

2. Versions below 1.11 are no longer supported due to their age. Update to a modern version of Minecraft to receive support.

It is not about code style. It is about programming patterns that cause problems.

 

There is no "staff" here. People moderate and help people on this forum in their free time. For free. What do you feel is being done wrongly here? In my opinion you should be happy that you are given advice about your mod instead of just getting a one-word answer on your specific question.

If I expect someone to give advice it's on the issue I'm having not my programming patterns issues.

I didn't need that response. Cause If I didn't know java my mod would be broken and never work. And it seems to me the mod works perfectly.

It obviously doesn't, if your textures and lang file aren't functional.

    • Hi, I've been having trouble trying to use forge as it shows a black screen when I open the game, but I can still interact with it and hear the music.  I've done all of the step by steps and most common fixes like updating drivers, keeping up to date with Java, deleting and reinstalling minecraft, restarting my computer MANY times, even smaller things like splash.properties (I didn't have that file so I added it and set it to false thinking it would do something, definitely not) and making sure to prioritize my rtx 3070 in the settings but with no luck. Minecraft works as intended when I uninstall forge and I also don't have any mods currently, it just gives me this issue when I install forge. I also increased the ram usage, made sure my hardware isn't full or anything, and even changed the resolution in hopes it would fix things. I checked my antivirus and firewall but that isn't the issue either. Trust me, I've done everything I can think of. For some reason the black screen does flicker a little into the main menu, but obviously unplayable. I couldn't even make my way to the settings with how little it flickered. I'm not sure if it flickered randomly or if it was because I was messing around moving and clicking a bunch, I didn't really test it that much.  
    • I've had a really weird issue recently,  I wanted to add the Depper and Darker mod on my dedicated server (MC 1.21 with Fabric 0.16.9, hosted on nitroserv.com) but whenever I do add the mod the sever stops doing anything after listing the mods, and I get no crash or error or anything, just a stuck server. Here's a normal log of the server booting up: https://pastebin.com/JipFF2Eh and here's the log of the server doing the weird thing: https://pastebin.com/W4JBh3eX I just don't understand it. I've tried removing other mods (somewhat randomly) but deeper and darker still breaks my server whenever I add it. NitroServ support staff is about as confused as I am and I've had no response from the Deeper and Darker support staff... Now I know this is the Forge support not the Fabric support but I'm just trying to know if anyone has any kind of idea to fix this (aside from not using the mod obviously) Also I still have a bunch of errors and warnings whenever the server does start properly, are there any of them I should be worried about?
    • Delete the config of RandomTweaker (config folder) If there is no change, remove this mod
    • Hello! So i have been trying to make a mod that adds plant fiber to minecraft 1.16.5 (i believe there are mods that add plant fiber but not for 1.16.5) but the problem is that i want to modify the loot table of grass to always drop plant fiber but also keep the vanilla drops. Most common answer i have seen is GlobalLootModifiers. But my tiny brain cant understand any tutorials. So any help is appreciated.
    • Minecraft forge 1.12.2 does not load. Here is both logs. I assume its because of a mod that i have, idk. (L521)
