Minecraft Forums

Ok so I thought my self one day I would like to make a mod, so I searched up easy ways to make minecraft mod what I got sent to a link for MCreator this worked for a very short amount of time(I got board and its very limited in what you can do). So I decided I would learn ava so I could make a mod the proper way. So I did learn java(to a basic digree(enough to get started)). My next question was how do I mod minecraft using java this lead me to this guys video(). I followed the video exactly it it worked until I wanted to run the client through eclipse, I discovered that it is due to the fact that I'm missing some files (assets is one of them).

Heres the log:

EDIT:I have decided that I will use the tutorial by Pahimar instead of this guy maybe that will work
