Non [a-z0-9_.-] character in namespace of location: Mod:sounds.json

Kidsm · June 15, 2020

Hello!

So I've been trying to learn how to create simple mods using forge, I decided to start by adding a new simple block to the game. Now I've been able to run the game for the first time before adding the block, after the addition I tried to run the game again and I stumbled upon this weird crash below. I have no idea where is sounds.json file is stored as I'm not it's creator ( If I remember correctly this is a default minecraft file isn't it? ). My mod ID is 8+ characters long so it can't be the problem as some people on the internet mentioned that can cause similar issues.

Thanks!

It is likely a broken json of some sort, you should post/check the debug.log (to an external site if it is too large and link back here) I believe it will have more information than the crashlog.

Your Mod ID is in fact the problem if it is "Help"... in case you didn't notice mods ids can't contain capital letters as they are not between a-z or 0-9

My modid is helpmeplease lol, it's a temp one that I've written in order to get things running.
This is from my code:

in my build.gradle I've changed the modid to be the exact same as in the code, and in mods.toml I've changed it as well.

@Mod("helpmeplease")
public class Help
{
    // Directly reference a log4j logger.
    private static final Logger LOGGER = LogManager.getLogger();
    public static final String MOD_ID = "helpmeplease"; 
    public Help() {
        // Register the setup method for modloading
        FMLJavaModLoadingContext.get().getModEventBus().addListener(this::setup);
        // Register the doClientStuff method for modloading
        FMLJavaModLoadingContext.get().getModEventBus().addListener(this::doClientStuff);
		// Rest of the code...

Well the debug.log is indeed very big, and I'm not able to paste it in pastebin. Do you have another site in mind?

Could you post your mod as a git repo? It would be much easier to inspect every json then, btw the modid in the build.gradle doesn't matter, it's just what your output jar will be called.

Sure I can, it will take some time though, I'll return with the link to the git when I'll finish.

In all of your item and blockstate jsons you put "help" in the part that should contain your modid instead of your actual modid ("helpmeplease"). And the directory it's in has a capital letter and isn't your modid.

Oh well done to me lol, I forgot to update the mod id's after I changed it to be longer than 8 letters Dx. also what do you mean by "the directory it's in has a capital letter and isn't your modid"? what directory?

Oh it matters if the directory itself has capital letters on not? So I need to change it to something without capital letters or to my modId? Does it matter?

Pretty sure that directory has to be called your modid.

Well the problem has been fixed. The lesson is to keep an eye on the modid that you are using Xd. Thanks a lot!
