mcmod.info OVERRIDES OTHERS? is there a way to edit description IN THE MOD.JAVA?

[Alesimula]

Hi as i sayd in the description, the proplem of mcmod.info files is that in minecraft.jar there can be only one... is there a way to change the name of this file or edit the mod description in mod_Mymod.java file??

your mod doesnt go into minecraft.jar, the zip goes into mods folder. You have to make an mcmod.info, there is no other way

Well its strange that i made a big mod (dimension), and i still used to put all my files in minecraft.jar (well, it works in minecraft.jar too, but thanks

The mcmod.info file in the zip is the most popular way, but you can have the info,action defined in the @PreInit method of your mod file. I do as having it in the zip crashes me for some reason...

I did this for mine, there are probably better ways of doing it though.

 

ModMetadata data = event.getModMetadata();
data.name = "Name";
data.version = "Version";
data.url = "website";
data.authorList = Arrays.asList(new String[] {"author1", "author2"});
data.description = "Description";
data.logoFile = "logo file .png";
data.credits = "Any other credits!";
data.autogenerated = false; //Ignore me, just keep me as false

 

Also, the are other things to include in this that I haven't. You can find them in the same file as getModMetadata.

 

I found out how to do this from this tutorial, which has lots of info on how it works. I just adapted it a little

Same as you would in the mcmod.info file. All the tags are the same

[Draco18s]

That would be correct because the mcmod.info file is just a JSON string.

@Mod(modid = "Glacia", name = "Glacia", version = "4.0", acceptedMinecraftVersions = "1.5.2", dependencies = "mod_MinecraftForge")

 

Strangely the dependence "mod_MinecraftForge" is not working with MCP and when there is this string, the mod is not loaded probably because the dependencie is not satisfated... Why?

That could be two things...

 

1) Minecraft forge is not mod_minecraftforge

2) You have defined the dependencies wrong. I was thinking just in the same metadata bit I gave you earlier you could just put data.dependencies  as one of the tags, just like in the mcmod.info.

 

Also, do you need to define minecraft forge as a dependency as your mod wouldn't be found without it?

in ModMetadata there is a code requiredMods... but it isn't a String but a Set<ArtifactVersion>, and dependencies in ModMetadata is not a String but a List<ArtifactVersion>... WHT DAFUK IS THT??

It's a List.
