ok, main post now updated and tutorials transferred to my personal web page for editing reasons. all tutorials are for minecraft 1.4.2 and may or may not work for previous version of minecraft.
I need a little help here, I don't know where the mcp/src/common directory is... you never said... please help. Sorry if I'm being noobish.
there is not minecraft/src/common directory. in the minecraft directory there is a src and a common. i i said minecraft/src/common please refer me to the tutorial where i mentioned it.
hey, sadly i do not know much about events. i know specifically about the sound events and bonemeal events however i have not looked into this yet. i am not sure if this will help but this is what i found on the subject of the forge events.
if your to lazy to check that out this is what it says
LivingDropsEvent
Used to drop items when a living entity dies. Fields: DamageSource source - the source of the damage killing the entity ArrayList<EntityItem> drops - the list of items the entity will drop, add or remove to this list int lootingLevel - in vanilla Minecraft this is affected by the Looting enchantment boolean recentlyHit - whether the entity was hit recently before its death int specialDropValue - a random integer between 0 and 200 subtracted the looting level. In Vanilla Minecraft this must be below 5 to make a rare drop. Calling source.getEntity() will return an Entity if the damage source is an entity or null otherwise. This event is cancelable, so calling event.setCanceled(true) will cause the entity to drop nothing.
for more help i would recommend looking in the cpw.mods.fml.common.event or net.minecraftforge.event i'm not sure wich one but i think one or both of these contains information of events aswell.
sorry i couldn't help you better. i can tell you are on the right track though i will post back to you if i manage to find it out. i am working with negative piXels mod organization at the moment and we have several outstanding individuals. hopefully they will be more educated on events then me and can help out. if they know anything i will give you a shout (probably a pm)
also as an unrelated notice to people. tomorrow i will be doing a lot of work. i will be rewriting a lot of the tutorials and adding some new ones. i feel like my tutorials are inconsistent because i write them at different times and i tend to use different coding styles and tutorial strategies. i will probably make a template for them or something. i may also be posting my tutorials on my webpage because i feel it has a superior editor then the minecraft forums. i love the forums editor but a few times now i have been making tutorials and they would be buggy or i would hit backspace while writing one and it would backspace my browser even though i was in the text editing field.
thanks again to everyone ~Darkhax
cool, thanks for the reply. im still trying to kill this task hahaha, i will get it eventualy

Where is the minecraft directory you speak of? I've searched throughout the computer, there is none I could find. You said this directory is where I should create packages. in the package tutorial.

this is all done inside the minecraft coder pack with eclipse.
edit: my tutorials are not really meant for people starting off as there are a lot of those. i cover a bit of the basics and then go into some of the more interesting features.
1st: Learn us how to do config files (I haven't found any working for 1.4.2 atm)nvm
2nd: Show us how to make a Custom Bow with Custom Arrows: with special effects? (I've managed arrows and bow, but for some reason my arrows are invisible, even if i tell them to use the RenderArrow...)
3rd: How to make Weapons with special effects (sword throwing fireball when right clicked...)
I like the tutorial on your website, but the only problem, if you ask me, is that it's not very deepen, you don't really tell us what the different codes do. I sometimes really don't know what you are doing, as you are given us codes, but you don't tell us where to put them :/

I don't believe this is where you should be if your just starting modding.
This is more neat stuff that can help more experienced modders improve their mods.
Please don't ask him to waste time on thing that google can solve, you should know what goes where.

hey, i have been feeling a bit out of it so i haven't checked this page in a few days. i am not sure what is going on with your arrows. i know that the tests i have done have yielded similar results. however i have not put much time into this.
the fireball on the sword was set for this friday. our school is doing this event on friday and it is not required to go however those who do get extra credits so i don't know yet. i will be taking a lot of requests on friday as i have nothing to do
also i do know it can be hard to keep up with me sometimes i try to send all the people that dont understand me to wuppy because he has some good beginner tutorials. i will admit that my tutorials could be a bit unclear however i am trying my best to slow down my thought process.

thanks for pointing this out. as i mentioned i do try to make my tutorials beginner friendly but it can be a bit hard when you are coding a few different things at the same time. i think i may only do intermediate/hard/uncommon tutorials from now on and simply send people with beginner questions to wuppy as he does an excellent job at a lot of beginner tutorials and he also has some other cool tutorials as well such as dimensions.

I have made mods, and what I am asking is to improve my mod:

I am making a big project with Forge, and I really want that to enhance my mod...
Google hasn't helped me for this... i found for lightning but I'm really interested in making them shoot fireballs, or arrow spawning lightning where it hits...

Well I started looking at Wuppy first before coming here, so I do agree he has good tutorials for beginner,
But atm he doesnt have that much for 1.4.2 and I really wanna learn modding deeper than that
So, I Good Luck with your tutorials and I hope to see more from you
p.s. For the arrows, still havent found out, sadly :'(
If anyone knows, finds out please tell me/us

Might as well just make a Java tutorial, or read the one at Oracle's website.
lol i will make a tutorial teaching java!!!!
lol, i probably won't do that however because to be honests i am still learning java myself and would only consider my knowledge to be basic java knowledge. however now that i think of it i should probably post some resources for beginners to learn java. it is a wonderful language.
Hey dark great tuts. request how to implement other fuel sources from IC or BC? Thats the last thing I need to figure out before I actually finish my code is how to add IC2 Energy net. Just a thought. Again, thanks to you and all the modders showing us newer modders how to start out.
Could you possibly do tutorials on mobs, or basic block gui's?
no a fan of mobs however i may make a tutorial to make a mob. i would really like to put time into rendering and get a interesting mob with animations and such. that would maybe make a good video tutorial

hey, i haven't really worked with any of the other energy mods that are out there however i think that the mods like IC and BC have there own "api" type of thing to add your own additions. i would probably ask on the buildcraft forums or ic forums. they would know more on the topic then i do.
it would seem that i am getting the error on my end as well. perhaps i should not have assumed it would work with the 1.4.2 update. i will put more time into solving this issue tomorrow. and get back to you.

It worked... !
But, when i changed both EntitySmallFireball to EntityFireball
I got an error on the second EntityFireball :/ (Yes i did import the files needed...)
When I hover over the second "EntityFireball", it tells me
"cannot instantiate the type EntityFireball"
:/
Do you know whats wrong?
Here is the full code:
Find out how I generate....coolAlias...world structure generation and rotation tool...
