    I get this Log every timer Please help


    [00:07:50] [SEVERE] Adding mods from \tekkit\mods\AdvGeneratorspr5.zip
    [00:07:50] [SEVERE] Zip found.
    [00:07:50] [SEVERE] Failed to load mod from "mod_IC2_AdvGenerators.class"

    *facepalm* Why don't people read anymore? This addon is outdated, it will not work with more recent version of IC2. Oh, you might want to watch yourself, all of us, with some exceptions, do not like (to put it lightly) Technic or Tekkit.

    Technic/Tekkit is not our jurisdiction. Go ask over on their forums.


    And just as a note: We, of the IC2 forums, do not like (to put it lightly) Technic.


    EDIT: Believe me, I am one of the nicer people here. Make sure you don't get on the bad side of people like FenixR .

    I can't remember anymore, I've had my head so deep in code trying to update a friend's mod since he went MIA, I've forgotten what is what. XP

    Installing the API is just copy and Paste into the rootfolder of Minecraft. If you know how to install the Forge-API (look at the Forge-Forum), then you have no Problems.

    Eh, not really. Forge installation is somewhat automated by the batch/shell file they package with the sources. But before that, extracting the forge folder to the MCP root but before is easy.


    To the OP: to install the IC2 API just extract the API to MCP\src\minecraft\net\minecraft\src so that there's a folder called ic2 there, then you'll be good to go.

    can you help me i dont know how to install it in my server bukkit i try to put in the folder mods and it doesn't work i try to put in the craftbukkit folder and i got error again here my log:

    can you help me please.

    Take it up on mcportcentral, they mucked up their port of IC2.

    The main practical application I had in mind was base-building. Sometimes I find really nice flat land for a new death-fortress covered in trees, long grass, etc. and just don't want to bother clearing it out. Could also help with Wasteland-style aesthetics (I remember the Rocket Science mod's thermonuke would, after a certain radius, just kill trees and grass - the end result was spectacular). Lastly, this might (at a future point) add a little depth to the Industrial Conflict update - as I see it, jungle warfare could get a lot more dangerous with defoliants.

    Also, with the Industrium Conflict, defoliants would be interesting considering that you could also use it to destroy your opponents food supply (i.e wheat). But, this aspect could also be used in griefing as well. A bit of tit for tat as I see it.

    Wow, a first-time poster that came with a well thought out idea and even made it sound workable. I like it and the concept.


    This kind of thing could help me clear out one of my ages that is simply overrun with plants.

    FIgured it would be better to bump this old thread then start a new one...


    I originally had the same question, but found this answer. A bit of a follow up question though since there a lot of moding tutorials out there. I can only assume like any other community; some are crap and teach bad habits while some are good resources that teach sane ways of doing things that will not piss off other programmers who might have to look at (or integrate) your code. Often I see 'good practices' and 'clean code' in posted requirements for code to be worthy of including in mods or packs, but even good programmers can produce crap code when they get the wrong idea about what is expected or how a system is put together.


    Which brings me to ask, are there any specific tutorial or tutorial writers that fall into the 'recommend' or 'to be avoided' pile?

    If you don't mind figuring out things with the IC2 API (he only covers Forge), I can recommend the Helfull tutorials here:
    [Creating Mods] Helfull's Tutorials [1.2.5][Forge] - Minecraft Forum


    He doesn't have much, but he goes the extra length of having a github repo with example code. Examples: creating property files, creating recipes, etc. It'll give you a start.

    What version of Forge?
