[Tutorial Set] [ModLoader] Slymask3's Modding Tutorials

Thank you so much for the help <3
I will be putting link to this tutorial if I publish this mod

Alright, Post a link to your mod here, so I could add it to the "Mods Created by People that used my tutorials"

Okay here's the link to the minecraftforum topic:

Awesome, I will add it !

I need help, It works all great until I add the code for the texture for it. It renders out fine, but when I add the texture to the game shit happens. Can someone help me?

Edit:
Even if i take the Texture Code out, minecraft still crashes. The Client Version works fine when I test it out. But when I obfuscate it, it crashes the whole game. Can someone help?

@JoeySalsa

Please post your .java files here, so I could try to find the problem.
Post them in code format inside a spoiler:

Code:

[spoiler][code]BLAH BLAH BLAH[/code][/spoiler]

It will look like this:

All the codes

EDIT:
I got it to work now, I didnt have a "clean" enough copy of minecraft for this to work. What happened was some other folders in .minecraft where effecting it.

Hi, I'm having an issue with the tutorial. I do everything as you have(the block and item) and it continues to give me an error saying that the "symbol ModLoader" cannot be found, and I'm wondering why. If you need me to provide you with the code I can. Also, I installed modloader as you said, and deleted META-INF so I'm not sure what's going on. Thanks in advance though.

@Zblade93

Do not delete META-INF when you put ModLoader in the minecraft.jar.
Try to get a clean minecraft.jar, and just add the ModLoader files.

AH I was wondering if that was the issue! Thanks a lot. I'll try that later and let you know if I'm still getting errors.

edit:

I'm still getting 9 errors saying that it can't find the "symbol ModLoader" I'll post my code to show.

Spoiler:

Also, here's my actual item class

Spoiler:

Hmm.

Backup those .java files you made.
Run cleanup.bat, then decompile.bat.
Cause thats the only thing I could think of, it should find ModLoader. :O

Well when I run cleanup, it says that permission is denied, any idea about that?

EDIT: It ran cleanup.bat fine, which is odd since I've been trying to do that for a week, now it says that there's an issue with my "purplestone", not sure why. Says it can't find symbol "purplestone". :\

EDIT(again): I fixed it! Apparently I had some things capitalized that didn't need to be, so that was the issue.

How do you make tools? Is it roughly the same as Armor/Items? Or is it a totally different ball game?

EDIT: figured out my problem, thanks for everything, the tutorial, the help, everything!

@urkkle It's kinda different. I will be making the tutorial soon.

@Zblade93 You have to put your .class files and the textures in your minecraft.jar. Or if you put "/blahblah/texture1.png" as where your textures are, you have to put them inside the folder "blahblah" in the minecraft.jar. If you want me to explain it more, I will. I just don't have enough time atm.

Thanks, I feel so silly. Right after I asked you a lightbulb went off in my head, I was like put the folder in the jar... duh lol. Thanks though, a lot! And I'm not sure if this will be covered in later tutorials but how do I get my new block to spawn randomly throughout the world? If you can help that'd be great, but if not because of time I definitely understand.

Uhm, did you make a mod running and working before this?

Ok ok. Try to rename the file from BlockRubyOre.Java to BlockRubyOre.java
Actually the problem is in the java compiler.
