Standalone [1.3] tModLoader - A Modding API

I was just trying to use the mod loader and it said that it failed to load when I was going into a world. I was then greeted with two options: Backup TModLoader or Load files. I clicked backup TModLoader then it just said it failed to backup files. I have tried many things but I can't seem to get my game to work. So this why I am here and why I made an account on this to get help from the creator. I hope that you could help me with this problem and get back to me soon!

This is what it looks like when I try to play.

Also whenever I reload my mods the game crashes, I don't know if that has anything to do with it but that is also another problem. I really like this game and with all of the stuff going on I don't want to get bored so I really hope you can get this fixed!

Hey, I'm having the same problem as BradenKeenan. Thought it'd be nice to play for a while since I haven't since autumn, but was greeted by crashing modbrowser and not loading up any of my characters instead.
 
Ok so, me and my friend have been playing multiplayer a while together but recently whenever I send him a invite and he tries to join, his game freezes when saying "Syncing Mods"

I think part of my problem is that I don't have Java 8 or higher (I'm not even sure what Java is). Didn't it say you required "Java 8 or higher"?

can you show the folder where the class is located? A namespace error is typically when the directory cannot be located. Also when pasting code use the code block by using [-CODE][-/CODE] (without the dashes) as reading it without whitespace formatting makes it difficult.
 
Ok so, me and my friend have been playing multiplayer a while together but recently whenever I send him a invite and he tries to join, his game freezes when saying "Syncing Mods"
make sure you both have the same mods, and the latest versions of mods, and the latest version of tmodloader. if that doesn't work, try joining eachother with no mods enabled. if that works, it's one of the mods causing the issue, enable them one by one to figure out which one it is. if it doesn't, try vanilla terraria. if vanilla works, gather all the files you think will help and submit a bug report. if vanilla fails, it's a problem with your internet, or your computer, or something else outside the developer's control
 
Is there any way I can add my own ammo ID, instead of using the item type? Like if i wanted a weapon to use bullets I would use item.useAmmo = AmmoID.Bullet, then the weapon would be able to use all bullets as ammo. At the moment I can only get my weapon to shoot one type of modded ammo at a time, as I am using item.useAmmo = mod.ItemType("ammo name"). Can I make an "ammo group" similar to the way I can make a recipe group, or is there some other way of doing this? Thanks! :)

Yes, simply have all of the ammos use the same ID for the ammo field, then have the item's useAmmo field use that same ID.
 
hola, no puedo jugar el mod, la versión en el mod es 1.3.5.2, pero en mi pc es 1.3.5.3, no puedo generar un mundo nuevo

There should be no significant difference between the two versions, why can't you generate a world? Do you get an error? If so, we could use your client.log file, it's in your documents folder.

No debería haber una diferencia significativa entre las dos versiones, ¿por qué no puedes generar un mundo? ¿Le da un error? Si es así, podríamos usar su archivo client.log, está en su carpeta de documentos.
