Adding a New Entity - Invisible? Texture Error?

[MoonMax]

So, I'm basically trying to [for starters] make a mod to add a Ball of Yarn that cats will play with. I haven't added any code for the cats to actually play with it, mostly because I can't figure out how to get it to render at all. In fact, I can't even get the icon for the item used to spawn it to render; it returns to the default iron helmet icon. Any help would be much appreciated.

Images:

yarnBall.png

 

The block.png and items.png are just generic testing sheets, I shouldn't have them referenced anywhere.

 

 

[Celtc]

In the item.java u add an extra 's' at the method name:

 

public String getTextureFiles()
{
  return CommonProxy.ITEMS_PNG;
}

 

Try:

 

public String getTextureFile()
{
  return CommonProxy.ITEMS_PNG;
}

 

Also you didn't call the right image files in the commonProxy.java. I'm sure this will fix the "texture not loading" problem... at least for forge 6.3.0 (mc 1.4.4).
