I've loaded a new mod (currently only available at planet minecraft, but that's currently under maintenance so I can't post there), and it's giving me an error. I'm not going to even give my two pence, because I can't read this at all, so maybe you guys can understand it and help me to fix it. This is not my mod, btw. I just want it to work with the mods I have installed.

Spoiler:

You have too many items loaded. Each item/block has an individual indice for their texture. This is why Notch uses his terrain.png and his items.png, because that takes up one for hundreds of items, not hundreds of indices. That's the modder's issue. The only way this can be fixed is either

1. You somehow get a mod to increase sprite indices
2. The creator(s) make the mod(s) use Forge's one-file-texture system, just like Notch uses
3. You use less mods; some with not as many items

Hopefully the creators switch to Forge

Just to clarify, this is not your fault. You're not installing it wrong or anything, it's the system's fault.

Hmm...know of any mod that'll add to the indices? I know of a 4096ID mod, but I don't know if that's what I'd be looking for...it's not updated to 1.2.4 yet I don't think so it wouldn't matter.

ID's and indices are different.

Minecraft will be upgrading to 4,096 block ID's soon, but I've seen a sprite indice increaser topic somewhere... I'll try to do some research

Much appreciated. I've googled a little, but nothing solid has shown itself.

Hi, this really has nothing to do with this post, but I don't know where to put it. After I install forge I get a black screen... I checked all of the noob mistakes and I did nothing wrong.... Can anyone help me? Or at least tell me where to post this?

Hey Matakor, I was just checking out your profile and I saw this. I'd like to provide some simple 2 minute help in reading crash reports. It's the most basic part and will give you a general idea of what went wrong.

Where it starts to say all the "at <whatever>" a bunch of times, thats the most important place. The other stuff is mostly junk. The importance is the top few lines of this section, especially the very top line. The very top line is the name of the error, in this case just a generic 'Exception', and then sometimes a description of the error, in this case "No more empty terrain sprite indices left!" Some more of these errors could be something like an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException, generally referring to an invalid block or item ID. The rest of the lines in this section of the crash report are where the error occured. Here it ocurred when ModLoader tried to 'getUniqueTerrainSpriteIndex', so this gives you an idea of what mod actually caused the problem. In this case it actually is ModLoader, because of its stupid way of inserting new textures.

I hope I helped you. With this knowledge you should be able to figure out what the problem is and what mod caused the problem whenever your Minecraft crashes.

I know you said you don't know where to post this, but why here? It very clearly states that this forum is for 'Help with Java code'.

Then you should post it in the Forge thread, where the modders of forge are answering questions and fixes errors with THEIR mod, this is the forum for programming and creating mods
Anyways check your inbox/PM
