Minecraft 1.5.2 forge modding tutorial - VileDiamond

Note: Anything i put in [] is your
option to the thing you name it; and no spaces;

If You Dont Know How To Setup The Forge Workspace And Stuff, goto another modding thing, you need eclispe and stuff

Setting Up The Main Content in the mod

Create a new package the src folder should be : src\minecraft
Name the package whatever you want;
I Created Another Package Called Main , in the first package i created
now created a class Called [your mod] in the package you want
put this code in it:

package [package]; //The package your mod is in

import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.Init;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.Instance;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.NetworkMod;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.NetworkRegistry;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.GameRegistry;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.LanguageRegistry;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.NetworkMod.SidedPacketHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.SidedProxy;
import [package you mod is it].*;
@NetworkMod(clientSideRequired=true,serverSideRequired=false, //Whether client side and server side are needed
clientPacketHandlerSpec = @SidedPacketHandler(channels = {"NitroMod" }, packetHandler = ClientPacketHandler.class), //For clientside packet handling
serverPacketHandlerSpec = @SidedPacketHandler(channels = {"NitroMod" }, packetHandler = ServerPacketHandler.class)) //For serverside packet handling
@Mod(modid="[modname]",name="[modname]",version="[modversion]")
public class [whatyourclassiscalled] { //The class file

@Instance("[modname]") //The instance, this is very important later on
public static [whatyourclassiscalled] instance = newwhatyourclassiscalled]();
@SidedProxy(clientSide = "[packageyourclassisin].ClientProxy", serverSide = "[packageyourclassisin].CommonProxy")
public static CommonProxy proxy;

@Init
public void InitCobaltCraft(FMLInitializationEvent event){ //Your main initialization method

NetworkRegistry.instance().registerGuiHandler(this, proxy); //Registers the class that deals with GUI data
proxy.registerTiles();
proxy.registerBlocks();
proxy.addNames();
proxy.addRecipes();

}
}

edit all those[]

your will get some errors on eclispe, and that is what where about to fix;
create a new class called CommonProxy:
make it in your main class package;
put this code in :

package [packageyourclassisin];

import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraft.item.crafting.FurnaceRecipes;
import net.minecraft.world.World;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.IGuiHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.GameRegistry;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.LanguageRegistry;
import [yourpackagethemainclassisin].*;

public class CommonProxy implements IGuiHandler{ //THIS IS IMPORTANT, CANNOT BE A PROXY/GUI HANDLER WITHOUT THIS!!
public void registerRenderInformation() //Client side texture registering
{
}
@Override
public Object getServerGuiElement(int ID, EntityPlayer player, World world, int x, int y, int z) { //For GUI's
return null;
}
@Override
public Object getClientGuiElement(int ID, EntityPlayer player, World world, int x, int y, int z) { //For GUI's
return null;
]}
public void registerTiles(){ //For registering TileEntities

}
public void registerBlocks(){ //For registering Blocks

}
public void addNames(){ //For adding Item's ingame names

}
public void addRecipes(){ //For adding your Item's recipes

}
}

that is pretty staight , but create another class called ClientProxy in the same folder;
code:

package [yourpackagethatthemainclassisin];
import [themainpackage].*;
import net.minecraftforge.client.MinecraftForgeClient;
public class ClientProxy extends CommonProxy {
public void registerRenderInformation(){
}

}

now another called ServerPacketHandler
in the same folder;
code:

package [mainpackage];

import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
import java.io.DataInputStream;

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.network.INetworkManager;
import net.minecraft.network.packet.Packet250CustomPayload;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.IPacketHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.Player;

public class ServerPacketHandler implements IPacketHandler{


@Override[/color][/size]
public void onPacketData(INetworkManager manager, Packet250CustomPayload payload, Player player){
DataInputStream data = new DataInputStream(new ByteArrayInputStream(payload.data)); //Handles incoming data
EntityPlayer sender = (EntityPlayer) player;
}
}

and finally the ClientPacketHandler
in the same folder
code:

package [mainpackage];


import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
import java.io.DataInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.network.INetworkManager;
import net.minecraft.network.packet.Packet250CustomPayload;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.IPacketHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.Player;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.*;

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)[/color][/size]
public class ClientPacketHandler implements IPacketHandler{
@Override
public void onPacketData(INetworkManager manager, Packet250CustomPayload payload, Player player){
DataInputStream data = new DataInputStream(new ByteArrayInputStream(payload.data)); //Handles incoming data
}
}

now the important stuff is in;

Making Your First Basic Item:

now that we have the main classes lets make a first basic item;
i Created a package called Item,
create a class in the package you want then
name it the something like Mutationstone or something
then put this code in:

package [packageitisin];

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraftforge.client.MinecraftForgeClient;

public class [classname] extends Item{
public [classname](int par1)
{
super(par1);
setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabMaterials);//you can get the name of all the tabs by type CreativeTabs.Then it will list;
setUnlocalizedName("[name]");
//textures will be registered automatically in the base folder , \textures\items\*texture*.*text*
}
}

then added this code in the mainclass: under the code: @instance("[modname"])
under the next line add:

public static Item [itemname] = new [classname](ItemID);

then add

import [packagename].[itempackagenameorso].*;

that fixes up the thing so lets
add this to the commonproxy under the addNames() method

LanguageRegistry.addName([modname].[ItemName], "[ItemName]");

if you want to add a recipe do this under the addRecipes() method
the recipe is like this ; "xxx" the character will be represented soon after,it dosen't need to be x
recipe2 is if you want, it is the second line in the crafting table
recipe3 is if you want 2, it is the third line in the crafting table

GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack([ModName].[ItemName]), [Amount]), "[recipe]", "[recipe2]", "[recipe3]", Character.valueOf('[characterused]') , [list].[itemname]);

// and so on;

with that you have a new item;
when recompiling, run recompiling.bat in the mcp folder, you also need jdk
startclient.bat and you see your mod there
