Neowulf Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 Eclipse for your IDE, MCP to decompile/recompile, Forge to make your life MUCH easier, gimp makes for "easy" art changes. When MCP decompiles it creates an eclipse project directory, just tell eclipse to use that as the workspace and it's all happy. Quote

Silent Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 I'm going to be blunt, if you can't even do the smallest amount of googling for these simple tasks, I'm not sure if you're ready to program. Quote
spa0703 Posted December 13, 2012 Author Posted December 13, 2012 it wont help its ALL FOR WINDOWS Not linux Windows! Quote
spa0703 Posted December 13, 2012 Author Posted December 13, 2012 i already made mods on windows i make mods before! Quote
Neowulf Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 If you don't know how to install eclipse for linux, then you should be taking the time to actually learn linux before you start using it as your dev machine. Java is cross platform, there is no benefit or penalty for using any specific OS. If you're already making mods in windows, why change? Quote
Jorcer Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 I have a feeling this guy would spend most of his time spell checking his code rather than writing it... Quote

Neowulf Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 i had to i had a virus Then get crackin learning linux. It's not that hard to get a basic install going then add the JRE, JDK, and eclipse. Unless you're on ubuntu, in that case I'd pitty you and say Good Luck, You'll Need It. Quote
Silent Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 What they hell is wrong with Ubuntu? I find it very functional Quote
Neowulf Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 Tried it, disliked the look and feel, then they decided to use it to generate revenue with amazon. I've got a debian VM setup, but I've tried a dozen different distros and the only ones I likes less than ubuntu were the business card sized livecds that wouldn't install to HD like they claimed. Not saying I HATE it, I added the distro bashing as a joke. What distro anyone else uses is not my concern or problem. Quote

Not saying I HATE it, I added the distro bashing as a joke. What distro anyone else uses is not my concern or problem. Arch Linux is a good basis system. EXTREMELY hard to use though (it doesn't have seperate server and client builds, if you know what I mean [not in a dirty way]), if you want it to be slightly easier, go with archbang. Still not very user friendly, though. It is very lightweight, and has an extremely powerful pakage building system. You can make easy to install self updating packages for stuff you didn't even make.

spa0703 Posted December 23, 2012 Author Posted December 23, 2012 Which linux distro are you using? im useing linux fedora 16 Quote
phoenix987 Posted December 23, 2012 Posted December 23, 2012 Is there a reason you're not using 17? The Fedora Project doesn't support old versions for very long the last time I checked. Make sure you're using Oracle's Java and not OpenJDK. Use java -version in the console to check. You might have to use the alternatives console command to set the default JRE to use. If you're using Fedora's Add/Remove Programs to install things, use yum in the console instead. You should get better error messages that make your searches for help easier. Beyond that, Google is your friend. You really need to learn to use linux on your own instead of following step-by-step tutorials, especially if you're going to develop mods. With that said, we're happy to point you in the right direction if you feel lost. We just won't do your work for you. Quote
