Integrating My mod and FTB.

[Oldfrith]

Hi all. First post.

So, I've set up my minecraft Eclipse project, it compiles, runs, etc. However, my intention from the start has been to do some personal mods for FTB. Unfortunately, I am new to Java development (my strong suit is really in C++), and I have no idea how to add FTB to my Eclipse project, or how to add my mod to FTB. I understand that this has something to do with the Forge Mod Loader, but I have no idea what to do to accomplish this. Any tips?

BTW, I love the design of this website. Kudos to designer and the sysadmin.

Forge Mod Loader is whom you need to be compatible with. If you are compatible with FML, you're compatible with FTB. For more information on that, I'd suggest you go visit their forums. First you download the Forge development environment, then go read up on some tutorials.

Look up on YouTube how to set up MCP.
And also look up the new Boston tutorials on java.
If you really know c++ then learning java, or at least enough for a mod should be quite easy.
