    posted a message on How to start the Basis of a Mod
    To make a minecraft mod
    Start here:
    (MCP) Minecraft Coder Pack main page
    MCP Latest download page click here.

    You will need to learn some Java as mentioned above. The directions for installing MCP include some on how to get and install the latest Java programming language. There are many e-books and video tutorials available on the net for learning the Java computer programming language. A common mistake is to confuse "Java Script" with "Java". They are two different programming languages.
    Link: Java Latest download page click here what you want is the "Java Platform (JDK)". The JDK stands for Java Development Kit.

    You may like to use a nice program editor called eclipse but you can use a simple text exitor such as notepad instead of eclipse.
    Link: Eclipse Editor

    Another resource is YouTube how to videos. You have to search for them. Some are useless others are excellent.

    There are at least 2 programs that have been available free to help you make some mods such as new blocks or items or recipes for minecraft. Even some existing mods allow you to make new recipes.

    One thing you absolutely must do is read the file in MCP called README-MCP.TXT read it all the way through. Once you have MCP unzipped you can find this file in a subfolder called "docs" which is a short name for "documentation".

    One Last thing. YES this is the WRONG forum for this discussion but I am tired of people answering without useful information. There is a discussion there for tutorials as well. I hope this helps. Pleas go to the correct forum for further discussion.

    posted a message on [1.0.0] Endermen No Pickup [release1]
    DOWNLOAD HERE (adf.ly)

    This Minecraft mod prevents Endermen from picking up anything.
    This is for client version 1.0.0

    "and server version 1.0.1" Warning: The server part of this mod may NOT be working (Info: December 3 2011)
    The client part of mod was tested thoroughly with nothing picked up by the Endermen.



    This is to prevent Endermen from tearing up everything you have built.

    Are you tired of Endermen tearing apart all the dark areas of your creations?
    Are you tired of Enderman taking blocks and ripping up your environment?
    This is a very simple fix. They do not pick up anything with this mod.

    Install the normal way:
    Stop the server.
    In the .minecraft folder
    look in subfolder bin
    for minecraft.jar and then open it with a program such as WinRAR
    remove the META-INF if it exists.
    Then drop in the .class files
    from this zip file.
    Then restart the server.
    It should be working.

    NOTES:

    This mod simply changed the list of things an Enderman can pick up
    to all false entries as opposed to true entries.
    Thats it.
    Nothing more.
    You are welcome to improve on this but it is so simple I am unsure how.

    Mod made by Andre L Noel (my first mod and my first post here)
    using MCP 5.0

    see also other mods by other people: :unsure.gif:
    Endermen Don't Pick Up Blocks
    Disable stealing Enderman
    Enderman No Block Move
    Stop Endermen from Picking up Blocks
    Single Player Commands - enderman pickup [enable|disable]

    Also for Bukkit:
    Enderman Pickup
    noEnderman
    NoEnderGrief <--- tested. works simply and perfectly.
    AntiEnderPick
    EnderGuard

    This has been an interesting first time experience with making and releasing a mod. One that has been already made and made well. So the links I continue to find releating to this are shown above so you can take your pick of features etc. Much more searching with google etc will be done before I release another. It has been interesting. :smile.gif:

    posted a message on How do i apply texture packets to my server?
    texture packs only apply to cleints. therefore each user gets to pick their own even when playing on the same server.

    posted a message on Can't connect to server
    one more thought:

    maybe a firewall is blocking it in part or in whole? Windows firewall or another one you have intalled maybe?

    it looks like the user is being connected successfully then kicked due to some other requirement...?

    just a thought.

    posted a message on Restored from Backup, It regenerated a new map!
    rzork,
    THANK YOU!!!

    it worked!

    I created a new folder with a NEW NAME.
    I copied the contents of the old backup into that folder.
    I changed 2 lines in the server.properties file:
    level-name=newnamehere
    server-name=newnamehere
    I got the latest server from minecraft.net (Minecraft_Server.exe for Windows)
    started the server and signed in with the minecraft client program Minecraft.exe
    Its all there and working

    Thank you!


    This brings questions:

    WHY couldn't I just load it under the same folder name it originally used?
    This is PROOF that there is more to backup than just the save game folder.
    Where is the additional data? and Why is it somewhere else?

    Answers, anyone?

    This server setting requires players to successfully sign in to minecraft.net or it kicks them.

    posted a message on Remove chunks from memory?
    Maybe, stopping and restarting the server or client program would temporarily solve this. It may cause it to just cache the area around you instead of the areas from an hour ago and far away. This is not a proper perminant solution but may work for now.

    Very similar to my problem. I restored from a backup folder and got a new map, losing all our work.

    posted a message on Current server version?
    Both the 01 for the server and the 02 for the client are correct and up-to-date.

    They are the latest of each even though they dont match.

    No need for matching versions aparently.

    I got confused by this as well when the updates came out.

    posted a message on Restored from Backup, It regenerated a new map!
    Context: Multiplayer Server on windows XP

    Problem:
    Restoring the complete folder for the map caused the server to regenerate it as if it were new. Thus losing all our hard work building in the map.

    I would occasionally make a backup of the map folder for our private server. It's name is "SunnyDay" and I named the server the same. The backups I keep with a date in the name. I now automate the backup daily.

    When I need to restore the game from backup. I rename the "SunnyDay" folder to something like "SunnyDay old". Then I copy the backup folder to the same location and rename it to "SunnyDay" again. Then I start the server. When I sign in and start to play on the server it is a COMPLETELY NEW MAP. Nothing remains from the old one.

    I have considered that it may be the same with a distant start location but I suspect not.

    Am I missing something when making backups?

    I need to be able to restore the backups I have so we do not lose all our work.

    HELP! =)

    Thanks!

    posted a message on Grass gone Black
    Thank you! :-)

    That fixed it instantly after the game client updated at login.

    I closed minecraft.
    I am running WinXP.
    I browsed to C:\Documents and Settings\aaa\Application Data\.minecraft
    and renamed my bin folder to zzzbin.
    Then I restarted minecraft and logged in.
    The update download fixed it.
    I tested minecraft then trashed the zzzbin backup folder.

    Yea! Thanks again.

    I am having the exact black grass problem.

    Attemts to fix that failed:

    restarted the client program.
    redownloaded the latest client.
    redownloaded the latest server. (yes i host a server as well)
    tried connecting to multiplayer server. (i connected fine but same grass problem)

    I also asked a friend to test their minecraft on their computer and their grass is normal looking.
    I also tried loading a texture pack (painterly pack) and it has black grass as well.
