Ok i want wondering how i added items. I am still learning to code in eclipse. I have messed around with adding recipes and i wanted to add some items.

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=minecraft forge adding items
le sigh

1. Google how to.
2. Google some more.
3. Should google fail you, then by all means, come for an answer here.

ok i have googled everything and i dont know what to do. I have added the item into the game, now i just need to texture it. Here is the code

package steeltoefish.tutorialmod.common.items;
import steeltoefish.tutorialmod.common.TutorialModMain;
import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
public class ObsidianStick extends Item {

public ObsidianStick(){
  this.setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabMisc);
  this.setTextureName(iconString.modid + ":" "ObsidianStick");
}
}

Where it says "iconString.modid" ect. I am not sure what to put there in order to make it work!!! it also tells me (In the same line) that ObsidianStick (Which is my texture name) is a syntax error on token. Help??????????????????????????

ModID. Your ModID. That's all I'm saying. Also, you have two strings, with no + in between.

Ok i just need help with this problem now. I have changed somethings and i dont know what the problem is. I get no errors in eclipse.



The Item class

public class ObsidianStick extends Item {

public ObsidianStick(int i){
  this.setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabMisc);
  this.setTextureName(TutorialModMain.MODID + ":" + "ObsidianStick");
}
}

the main class

@Mod(modid = "TutorialMod", name = "Tutorial Mod", version = "1.0.0")
public class TutorialModMain {

public static final String MODID = null;
@Instance("TutorialMod")
public static TutorialModMain instance;

@SidedProxy(clientSide="steeltoefish.tutorialmod.client.TutorialModClientProxy", serverSide="steeltoefish.tutorialmod.common.TutorialModCommonProxy")
public static TutorialModCommonProxy proxy;



@EventHandler
public void Init(FMLInitializationEvent event){
  //recipes
  GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack (Items.blaze_powder, 3), new Object []{" X ", " Y ", 'X', Items.redstone, 'Y', Items.flint_and_steel});
  GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack (Items.diamond), new Object [] {"XXX", "XYX", "XXX", 'X', Blocks.lapis_block, 'Y', Blocks.coal_block});
  GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack (Items.saddle), new Object [] {"XXX", "XYX", " Y ", 'X', Items.leather, 'Y', Items.iron_ingot});
  GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack (Items.wheat), new Object [] {"XXX", "XXX", "XXX", 'X', Items.wheat_seeds});
 
 
  //Smelting
  GameRegistry.addSmelting(new ItemStack(Items.gold_ingot), new ItemStack(Items.blaze_rod), 10f);
 
  //Items
Item ObsidianStick = new ObsidianStick(18000).setUnlocalizedName("ObsidianStick");
GameRegistry.registerItem(ObsidianStick, "ObsidianStick");
} 
 
@EventHandler
public void load(FMLInitializationEvent event) {
 
}

}

And btw i only come here after i cant find anything else on the internet. there is very few tutorials on forge 1.7.2 (Or that i can find anyway)

Umm... what's the problem? Error? Crash?Also, why the heck is MODID = null? You literally gave your mod an id on the line above. Why not assign MODID to what you assigned modid in the @Mod annotation?

the problem is that the texture wont show up in the game. It was one of the quick fixes and i was seeing if it worked. I am not sure!! That is why i need help It just tells me that MODID is not a field after i delete MODID = null.

Umm, yeah you're supposed to set it to your mod id. Please, atleast learn English. I literally told you to set it to your mod id.

Actually i am just blonde. Anyway thanks for making me feel even more blonde. That solved the problem...thanks..my texture works now
