landeroth Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I have an associate's in Java and want to do modding to help rehone my skills. Looking for a "getting started" type post to help me make sure what I do is compatible got me nowhere, nor did a search on "getting started". I may be a lower skilled programmer than what is typical here, but I want to mod and I want to make stuff forge compatible. I'm really looking for someone to post a link to a post that I didn't see that will make me go "well, that was obviously where I should have started" so yeah, I'm dumb enough to need pointed in the right direction before I even begin.

Choonster Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 The Forge documentation explains how to set up a workspace here. It explains some of the basics about Blocks here and Items here. Registering things like Blocks and Items is explained here. If you have any specific questions, you can create a topic in the Modder Support section. 1 Quote Please don't PM me to ask for help. Asking your question in a public thread preserves it for people who are having the same problem in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daeruin Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 You might be interested in some tutorials as well: Shadowfacts' tutorials—covers most of the basics Jabelar's tutorials—covers a lot of stuff in depth that's not covered anywhere else, also has a list of other tutorials Choonster's TestMod3—tons of great example code covering lots of things modders commonly want to do, although sometimes uses advanced Java concepts that are tough for beginners TheGreyGhost's MinecraftByExample—again, lots of great example code Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
