asanetargoss' Link Farm

Hi, I'm 🔥 asanetargoss. I play Minecraft (modded, Java) and do mostly Minecraft-related things under this alias, mainly programming mods in Java and writing fanfiction.

Here's some of my stuff:

• Hardcore Alchemy - A hardcore/survival/magic modpack. Magic with consequences.
• Changeling - A fork of Metamorph, a shapeshifting mod, with a focus on survival-oriented bugfixes.
• The Book of Dreams - A fantasy story about a guy who finds a book that is self-aware.

More of my stuff

• Alchemical Darkness - A short story inspired by some magic mods.
• Miner's Fear - A short story about a miner.
• The Convergence - A collaborative fiction with several other writers about a mysterious, multidimensional evil. I have since retired from this project, but have contributed significantly to the first two books.
• Miscellaneous Mods - An overview of the mods I've created or maintained, mainly to improve the Hardcore Alchemy modpack.
• The source code for my Minecraft-related projects are here.
• My miscellanous ramblings can be found found on various websites.

You may also be interested in my blog and microblog, which I update infrequently.

And here are some useful links I've found related to Minecraft, mainly modding, which may be useful to you:

Playing modded

• MultiMC - The Minecraft launcher I use for everything. Can also run Curseforge and FTB modpacks.
• Minetest - Always on my radar. A FOSS Minecraft-like with a Lua modding API.
• Minecraft Forum - OG Minecraft community.
• r/feedthebeast - All things modded.
• r/mcmodfinder
• Curseforge Minecraft

Coremodding/Reverse-engineering

• culegooner's Coremodding Tutorial - Java-based coremodding in a nutshell, aside from obfuscation mappings.
• Reflection/Coremodding PSA from a frustrated add-on developer - Best practices on obfuscation mappings.
• Bytecode Outline - Eclipse plugin for understanding Java bytecode and ObjectWeb ASM. Fair warning: the variable stack prediction feature was buggy the last time I used it. Otherwise, very useful.
• Mod Coder Pack (MCP) - Contains the MCP Mapping Viewer, a handy tool that lets you look up what class/field/method names are depending on the environment.
• Java Decompiler - The IDE plugin makes working with random mods and source-less jars a lot easier. JD-GUI is also really nice for browsing mod jars.
• Fernflower - For when JD-GUI breaks.
• mmvmap - A python script I made when I was tired of looking up name mappings in decompiled code.
• jclasslib - For when you need to look at the bytecode.

Cross-mod compat

• How to use almost any Forge mod as a dependency - Describes how I set up mod dependencies for Hardcore Alchemy, source code not required.
• Dealing with classloading during mod development - If you want to make your mod work with other mods, or on a dedicated server, this article can help you understand and prevent classloading crashes.
• CodeChicken Core for 1.8/1.9/1.10 - Another helpful tool which actually makes using non-dev mod jars in a dev environment possible. Also available for other versions.
• See also the Coremodding/Reverse-engineering section above.

Modding

• Minecraft Forge - A modding API.
• Fabric - A modding API.
• Quilt - A modding API.
• McJty's 1.10-1.12 modding guides - A collection of nice, written guides for miscellaneous common Forge modding problems. No longer available in the latest wiki (timestamped 21:09, 19 November 2017)
• 1.10 MinecraftForge documentation - Forge modding getting started and common problems. No longer available on the Forge website
• 1.12 MinecraftForge documentation
