Apparently here.
So I've recently been getting into doing development stuff on my own side, specifically making mods.

I learned how to do all the basic and easy stuff in 1.7, note the wording- basic and easy like adding blocks and items that don't do much except craft. It literally only took a couple of lines of code and a PNG file to add an item or block

Spoiler with a title But then I get stuck when adding ores, because I wanted to be ambitious like others and add ores to the end, but I didn't know how to make the block immune to the ender-dragons suggestion. So I ask reddit, and get peppered with comments saying I should essentially just move up to 1.10 instead.

So reluctantly I move to 1.11.2, as there isn't much of a difference between .11 and .10, and llamas

uh, yea. To add a block you need to make three strategically placed json files, named exactly correctly, if you even dare to capslock these files it will not work, all png textures must be full lowercase names, no proper noun capitalization for you.

and then the parameters are like "oh, if you don't use the right method, I'm just gonna not work without spouting out a coherent reason as to why, and you gotta ask someone who loves reading error messages what's wrong because I won't, unlike if you were to have a syntax error, tell you where you went wrong.

tl;dr, 1.10/1.11 is evil compared to 1.7/1.8
 
rip
I'm not going to ever try to make mods
 
This is another reason why 1.9+ sucks.

the only reason I'm even able to continue is that reddit has fast-responding users to help me XD

Do you mind sending me the error messages? I can most likely try to figure out what went wrong.

I already got them sorted by kind reddit users, thank you for the offer though
