If you can't load Terraria because a mod is being loaded which crashes the game, you'll want to manually delete the mod.
If you're on windows, head over to My Documents/My Games/Terraria/ModLoader/Mods and delete the .tmod file which is causing the problems (in your case Hero's mod).

The weird thing is I did delete all the mods there, but it still happened, it's working suddenly for now
The hero mod also wasn't listed

Now projectiles aren't working, and if I try to pick up an item my character gets stuck and I have to clear dropped items. I'm wearing chlororphyte armor and the leaf crystal tries to spawn when there's an enemy but never does

You can have multiple items ofc
It's not only about the filesnames. The namespace of the class and the name of the class itself also play a role.
Say I've got the following:

Code:

namespace MyMod.Items { public class MyItem : ModItem { } }

Then tModLoader will look for the texture file using `namespace/className` so `MyMod/Items/MyItem.png'. If the classname is `MyOtherItem` it'll look for `MyMod/Items/MyOtherItem.png` etc.

Lol thank you, i forgot about public class MyItem : ModItem to rewrite to item's name

E1: aaaaaaaah, really thanks! i am working on valentine mod, so i made some things to sell and heart arrows and tommorrow i will make some pet and heart magic weapon !

big like eldrazi

for all

this code is supposed to spawn a movable shield that faces towards the cursor on right click, but the shield doesn't recognise that the item is being channeled, can someone please explain why this is happening and how to fix it?

Code:

Realized that after I made them. The time limit doesn't seem to indicate seconds- so, then, what does it indicate?

For anyone else, I still haven't solved that glow issue, though.

Time in Terraria is mainly calculated in what everyone likes to call 'ticks' (or updates).
This basically resembles FPS. Terraria has 60 'ticks' per second.
So to calculate to seconds you basically have to divide all your timers by 60 (flight time counts as a timer).

Are you playing with mods? If you are, have you tried disabling them all (and made a new character/world)?
If you do not have any mods enabled have you tried a clean Terraria+tModLoader install?

Hi, I am making healing book (no attack, just left click for heal and 10 mana cost), but I tried to do some from dual use weapon tutorial but it wasnt working, so I am asking for help, how can I write to heal my player in this code??

item.useStyle = 5;
item.value = 100;
item.rare = 3;
item.mana = 10;
item.UseSound = SoundID.Item1;
item.autoReuse = true;
item.useTurn = true;

}

public override void AddRecipes()

And, how is possible that my items sometimes stack to 2 or more and sometimes i have 3 of the same item but in 3 slots? :/ And It didnt change value of items I need to craft when I changed it in code

(I reloaded 1261 times)

Which item are you talking about in this case? Could you show us the code?

crazydave18 · Feb 14, 2017

I have this with every item I need to stack..

But this one is most buggy:

using Terraria;
using Terraria.ID;
using Terraria.ModLoader;

namespace BrokenHeartMod.Items
{
public class PaperHeart : ModItem
{
public override void SetDefaults()
{
item.name = "Paper Heart";
item.width = 20;
item.height = 20;
item.maxStack = 999;
AddTooltip("Used for crafting! ");
item.value = 1250;
item.rare = 1;
}
}
}

That's strange. Are you able to merge the different stacks? Does this happen with vanilla items too (maybe some other mod interferring)?

crazydave18 · Feb 14, 2017

I have just this one mod... I tried to collect other items, but only mod items are bugging. It happens after I changed name of Mod.. But I completely rewrite all, what I could. Before i renamed mod, i put 10 items to craft 1 other item - and after i renamed i rewrote it to 5 items to craft 1 other item.. But nothing happens, mod is renamed but still 10 items to craft event it isnt in code. And as I said, I am reloading.. I dont know :d

Is it possible that mod duplicated itself?

D

E1: ahh, good news, I found some old files named YourModName in Mods and I deleted them and now everything works..
