After a while on constant tinkering, it seems modding in custom arrows is rather difficult.

 

When it comes to entityTrackers. they have their issues, bugs and seem to never get the same result as an arrow. The only way to properly get this to work well is extending EntityArrow.

 

but by extending EntityArrow, it seems it's only half the required support for custom arrows. many required fields are private. and only damage and texture are available. this means the item picked up, the gravity, and other various effects can not be done. and adding custom scripts over will ruin the tracker and scripting of the arrow. Adding getGravity(), getDroppedItem(), and even onEntityHit() methods would make arrows more customisable and well fit for easy implementation.

No, you can subclass and override functions in there already. If you need access to something transform it in your dev env.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

Sounds like you're not registering your custom entity properly, as as long as you pass in all the information that you need instead of relying on the arrow's internal functionality. There are many mods that add projectiles. Go look into those.

      pack.mcmeta and resource pack not recognized

      By Redstone Dreamer · Posted

      Update: I stand corrected as I was able to dig up a relevant log from my earlier testing which highlights the overall issue but does not explain how to solve it. See, Diagnostic Logs for pack.mcmeta not found: https://pastebin.com/LXS8Rtna

      Which mod was this? What are all the mods that were in use? It will help if enough information to replicate the problem is available.

      pack.mcmeta and resource pack not recognized

      By Redstone Dreamer · Posted

      I have been attempting to create a supplementary resource pack with Patchouli in order to add back the guidebook for Better End but unfortunately in every prototype I have made pack.mcmeta and my resource pack are not recognized. I have tested both zipped and unzipped and either way curseforge does not recognize my resource pack as existing. For testing I stripped my pack down to just the pack.mcmeta file and two empty folders labelled data and assets and I know the data folder is not the problem as firstly my first attempts just had an assets folder following Patchouli instructions and data came later in my flailing attempts to make anything in my pack work. The mcmeta file is not recognized whether or not I use this:  { "pack": { "pack_format": 15, "description": "A replacement for the BetterEnd Guide Book." } "language": { "en_US": { "name": "English", "region": "United States" } } } ,or this:  { "pack": { "pack_format": 15, "description": "A replacement for the BetterEnd Guide Book." } } I have made sure to only use lowercase and the pack folder is named better-end-guide. Is this some magic nonsense from me doing this manually instead of using an IDE or similar tool? Could it be because my files are by default in UTF-8 even though ANSI gives the same results? Is there a specific community secret tool I am supposed to use for zipping or specific settings? I am pulling my hair in distress. Unfortunately as there are no errors involved I lack logs to offer, if that disqualifies this thread please do not be harsh and instead if you can then please direct me to a forum with different rules and sufficiently respectful but knowledgeable as to be of assistance. Most of my experience with the programming community has been poor and so naturally I find myself wary.
