Having issue's with setting my item icons :\

[MaxM12]

So when updating my mod to 1.5.1 I came across issue's with the icons for my items.

 

Code of item icon:

	@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public void updateIcons(IconRegister iconRegister)
{
	this.itemIcon = iconRegister.registerIcon("EasySteel:coalDust");
}

 

and this is what i get when i start minecraft:

2013-04-29 21:04:29 [WARNING] [Minecraft-Client] TextureManager.createTexture called for file textures/items/steelBall.png, but that file does not exist. Ignoring.
2013-04-29 21:04:30 [WARNING] [Minecraft-Client] TextureManager.createTexture called for file textures/items/steelIngot.png, but that file does not exist. Ignoring.
2013-04-29 21:04:30 [WARNING] [Minecraft-Client] TextureManager.createTexture called for file textures/items/ironDust.png, but that file does not exist. Ignoring.
2013-04-29 21:04:30 [WARNING] [Minecraft-Client] TextureManager.createTexture called for file textures/items/coalDust.png, but that file does not exist. Ignoring.

 

and ingame i get the texture missing icon

when i add @Override

 

updateIcons(IconRegister iconRegister) gets red underlined.

The override actually has no impact on his problem.

 

He's just not putting his textures in the right place.

 

Have a look at this post:

I do have my image files there

This was for some blocks, but items will just be in /items instead of /blocks

diesieben07 is correct, if you wanna override a function you should annotate it as overriden, this has nothing to do with runtime, but it explicity shows you if you've fucked up your method signature so that it wont actually override anything.

when i add @Override

updateIcons(IconRegister iconRegister) gets red underlined.

This clearly shows that his signature is indeed fucked up.

In this case its pretty damn obvious,t he issue is that the function is called registerIcons not updateIcons.
