It is named: ancient_shard, just like in the code.

Quote from Spyker6own

Here is the code you asked for:

public void load(FMLInitializationEvent event){
// define items
ancientShard = new FarmingItems(2000).setUnlocalizedName("ancient_shard");

public void registerIcons(IconRegister reg) { // Make sure to import IconRegister!
if (itemID == BetterFarming.ancientShard.itemID) {
this.itemIcon = reg.registerIcon("ancient_shard"); // You can also replace blockID and blockIcon with itemID and itemIcon
}

Hey man, great tutorials so far!

Been looking to learn java and working with MC so far is awesome for setting achievable goals >:}
I personally work best reverse engineering so i was wondering if for example with your armor tutorial mod, you could also upload completed mod files. Say for example you complete a 1.6.x mod for this amethyst armor that way i could look at it cross check my code and have a solid base for compatibility testing with my SMP Server?

I know its probably a big ask but yeah would be sweet

Okay... so i've tried loading the textures your way, and it works for inside of eclipse, but I can't figure out where to put the textures in a compiled release, you know ModNameHere.zip, please help me!

Hi I was wondering why when I go into Eclipse it doesnt have anything on the package explorer. Like on your Ep. 1 of it you opened up eclipse and minecraft was in it mine doesnt have a minecraft in the package explorer. (This is my url: C:\Users\ssimm_000\Desktop\Mod1\forge\mcp\eclipse) I think you opened up the same thing. Please help... fast Thank you

Every time I download forge on a different computer the files have problems, the last time i downloaded it on this computer the names were mixed up and i couldnt make the mod properly, then on my other laptop it had all the names of items in numbers, then on my laptop (which im using to make a mod from this tutorial) Forge doesnt have all the files like install and the path (jdk) wont work properly, I MEAN SERIOUSLY!, Why do I have such bad luck!
Basically My Question Is Why Does My Forge Not Have The Install and How Do I Get It?

In the pickaxe one if (itemID == testMain.berilliumPickaxe.itemID) the last .itemID says its an error.

Ok so I think what your problem is, is that it is just called "Syn;" as the package, it should be "Syn.Tutorial;" depending on what you named your other folder, check you "morandomness" class and see what it is called on the top, if it's called "Syn.Tutorial;" them that what this one should be to! So try that

as far as i've seen nothing is different in this from the code used by others that the creative tab code I used was acquired from except for my custom tab being in the main class with the items coding in their classes, whereas the only tutorials i found the coding on had their items coded in their main class, can you notice anything I've done wrong so far? as i said on twitter the items work with them in other creative tabs such as the blocks tab but not in the custom tab i made of Amethyst
