Heeeello Minecraft Forum Goers! My name is Dawgeth, I run a Youtube channel for Commentaries/Let's Plays, but recently I've been bitten by the Java bug (.NET developer by trade, during the daywalker hours), and have jumped back into Minecraft modding. I also enjoy teaching and sharing what I learn - hence why I'm here.
I started a Youtube Channel, http://youtube.com/DawgethMods, where I will be showing off various Forge/Minecraft modding techniques, starting with my first video - which you can find below!
First Video - Episode 0 - The Prereqs
Episode 1 - Adding a New Command
Twitter in Minecraft? Why not. I wanted to do something different for my first episode, and I think adding a NEW command and twitter into Minecraft was interesting enough.
Episode 2 - Upgrading Forge to a New Version
I needed to upgrade my Forge - and I assume others will need to eventually as well, so why not record it, and show the steps to make sure that your mods, and your dev environment, stay up to date!
Episode 3 - Adding a New Block! Textured and All!
Ever since Forge 1.6 hit, there has been some confusion on how to texture blocks. I've got the answers, even if I am late to the party!
Episode 4 - Creating new Ore, Ingot (item), and New Smelting Recipe
I wanted to follow up our block with creating the ore and ingot to create it, then I wanted to be able to smelt the ore into the ingot. Come on the adventure with me, friends.
Episode 5 - Deploying/Packaging/Releasing a Mod - Including an EXTERNAL Library
We need to package and deploy what we've created so far - check this out! Includes using External Libraries referenced within the mod - notably twitter4j.
Episode 6 - Custom Armor and Crafting Recipes
I had a request to create custom armor - so I thought I'd teach how to add crafting recipes at the same time!
Episode 7 - One Last "EASY" Episode - Code Cleanup/Organization
I wanted to clean up our code a little, organize all our magic values into a constants/resource file, and prepare for our harder tutorials.
Episode 8 - Ore Generation Tutorial!
Ore Generation was required to wrap up our ore. And it's not as hard as you think it'd be! Chickity check it out!
Can I make a request for a custom mob tut? I have a bunch of mobs from 1.5.1, and I am having a really hard time updating them with ResourceLocation and all of the new methods and what-not....And I just thought of another thing I'm having trouble with!
Custom mob sounds for 1.6! Do I have to create a whole new modding resourcepack? UF! What do I do?

Ill throw something together this weekend - Holiday screwed with my recording plans.
That aside, the Minecraft Forge IRC chat is awesome for quick answers.

Do you know how to do custom mobs? If so, PLEASE tell me
Can you make your next tutorial on making a custom ore? I really found your first vid helpful!
I'm making the following tonight:
1. Custom Block (Refrigerator - Part of a series, leading into GUI for the fridge, custom crafting recipe, and food decay)
2. Custom Ore
3. Custom Commands (Twitter is my first example, embedding it into Minecraft is so easy a caveman like me can do it.)

I was going to add these throughout the week - but I went ahead and made one of them live, the first one, how to add your own custom command. In this case? Adding the ability to Tweet from within game.
Added Deploying / Packaging / Releasing Your Mod Up Top - This includes an EXTERNAL JAR / EXTERNAL LIBRARY .. So we need to modify the Forge.JSON file to include it. Check it out, up to!
Dawgeth is a recording fiend. I love this series. Even though I'm not modding, its nice to see how things work under the hood. Oh ya, whoever is doing all your textures... that guy is doing an excellent job.
