In 1.5, the file structure for textures changed. I know that blocks and item textures go into [modname]/textures/blocks or items.

 

My simple question is: Where would Armor go? Icons in /items? Also, the actual in-game armor, does it go into a new folder or what?

If you look in here: C:\Users\user\Desktop\forge\mcp\temp\bin\minecraft\textures\items

in where you install your forge folder, that is where the vanilla minecraft keeps all the items at.So keep armour in the items folder. Hope I was right

I got the in-game armor to appear just now by putting it in /modname/textures/armor/armor_1/.png

 

The icons for the items still wont show...

 

How do i setup the updateIcons method for armor? Or do I even use that?

This is what i do for my crystal sword:

public void updateIcons(IconRegister iconRegister)

{

iconIndex = iconRegister.registerIcon(MedivalWeapons.modid + "kamigreed:crystaline"+ this.getUnlocalizedName());

}

not sure if this works but it did before:

      public void updateIcons(IconRegister iconRegister)

{

iconIndex = iconRegister.registerIcon( "kamigreed:crystaline");

}

Here is the full path of where i put my png for my item,crystal sword:

....forge\mcp\src\minecraft\kamigreed\mod\modname\item

Textures go in:

 

/mcp/src/minecraft/mods/%MODNAME%/textures/%TYPE%/%FILENAME%.png

 

Where %MODNAME% and %FILENAME% are specified in the call to iconRegister.registerIcon(...)

 

e.g. for an item,

iconRegister.registerIcon("MyMod:MyItem")

 

will look for a texture at:

/mcp/src/minecraft/mods/MyMod/textures/items/MyItem.png

 

for a block, it will look in ...textures/blocks/ instead of ...textures/items/
