GUI questions


Firecrystal

Recommended Posts

So I've so far been using Forge for my mod, because it allows for a whole lot of stuff to be done without modding base classes, and has quite a few impressive mods using it.

 

The only problem I'm having is with the gui API, and the handlers in general. Is there some kind of documentation for how to use all these IWhateverHandler interfaces? As for the gui, vanilla Minecraft can open those easily using functions attached to the player, so why isn't there a function on EntityPlayer that I can pass a GuiScreen instance to and have it opened, instead of creating whole new classes just to implement the confusing interface? Is it something to do with SMP, or a security issue, or just some strange tenet of coding etiquette?

The ID is mod-specific, So I recommended something along the line of 1 for your first ID, possible 2 for your second.. and I know it may seem crazy, but bare with me for a second, 3 for the third one!

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

Entity IDs are only used for the MobSpawner egg things, and the MobSpawner blocks when playing SMP, so they are sorta unique. If you use Forge's entity hooks yes, its the same entity ids are unique to mods.

As for tileEntities... those don't have ID's they are part of the block.

Cool, since i use forge then i don't have to worry about conserving Entity IDs

You sure, when registering the tileEntity it wants an ID. Also how do you register the gui id i can't seem to find a tutorial on it. Though my gui's seem to be working.

    • So im making a mod for minecraft and i want to add custom fishing rods... aka fishing rods with different bait, depending on the bait you can have a higher chance of getting other fish. I want to make basically custom fishing rods with at least one custom loot table for each (so that i can choose which fish have a higher chance of being caught in a simpler way with said loot table) Problem is i dont know even where to start with doing this, like at all. Im very beginner with modding minecraft, any help (links to any source which could help me with this is also very helpful) would be great. 1.20 forge(of course)
    • Hi, my name is Gatis. Mostly all I do is play minecraft on Hypixel server. I play Skyblock where almost every player has installed QOL mods. They are nice and work nice but recently the grind I'm on requires not wasting time on boosts and if I'm watching something I usually miss it. Let me explain better. So there is "Mining speed boost" when it's ready message appears in chat. Mod I've been using allows to copy chat message, paste it in mod and next time same message appears it flashes big notification message on screen that speed boost is ready. The thing is somehow I still miss the notification. SO, I want to create mod that can detect that message and make more noticable notification (ex. bigger) or even stop me from moving for 10 sec if I don't use it instantly. I have no knowledge about java I have prepared intellij with forge on 1.8.9 I'm just left with this:                 package com.example.examplemod;                  import net.minecraft.init.Blocks;                import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod;                import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod.EventHandler;                import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.event.FMLInitializationEvent;                 @Mod(modid = ExampleMod.MODID, version = ExampleMod.VERSION)               public class GatisMOD              {                           public static final String MODID = "GatisMOD"; \                           public static final String VERSION = "1.0";                            @EventHandler                          public void init(FMLInitializationEvent event)                          {                                      // some example code                                      System.out.println("DIRT BLOCK >> "+Blocks.dirt.getUnlocalizedName());                          } }     I've watched many video, mostly they show how to setup everything but how to create, prepare file and later (export I guess) export to import in mods folder to use they don't I'd appreciate any help, maybe someone would explain some things to me. In future I have plans to make other feature but I guess not for now.
    • I don't think embeddium and rubidium can be used together. Try removing one of them.
    • I have been attempting to troubleshoot my personal modpack created on Curseforge for 1.18.2 Forge but I keep getting the Exit Code: 1 crash upon launching the game. When I open the debug.log I find the error for "Duplicate mods found" which simply isn't the case as there isn't a single mod with the same name. Most files are for the correct version as far as I can tell so I think there may be mods that are conflicting and the game is confusing them as "Duplicates". (Or I simply didn't check the versions correctly. Debug.log file paste: https://paste.ee/p/pQwZo#s=0 I don't normally frequent forums and don't normally ask for help online but guidance would be greatly appreciated. I can provide any other info needed
