Request for a Peripheral Tutorial

Hello I like to see a CC Peripheral and TurtleUpgrades tutorial because im stuck with my Upgrade and don't have a clue why it dosn't work.
I'm sure many other ppl have the same problem or just don't know how to Program ther own Upgrades and Peripherals.

Best regards Chain

Also, next time post in the Peripheral help and discussion section as I believe it applies to turtle upgrades too

I already read this. And I meant a full tutorial.

To be honest with only a tiny bit of Java knowledge you should be able to manage. First, learn to make a Minecraft mod using Tile Entities - then the rest will follow.

I wanted to make a Turtle Upgrade, and according to the post there isn't a Tile Entity needed. And I've already written the code. But my turtle just dont show up. I did write all the stuff the same way as "Apeture Sience Turtle Upgrades", I decompiled his classes and used them as reference but it just dont work.

Did you register the upgrade?

And if you did, did you change the ids?

yes I did both.

here are 2 snippets from the classes.

mod_DetectingTurtles Class:

public void load() {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub

  ModLoader.setInGameHook(this, true, true);
  TurtleDetecting tDetecting = new TurtleDetecting();
  System.out.println(tDetecting);

  try {
   TurtleAPI.registerUpgrade(tDetecting);
  } catch (Exception e) {
   System.out.println("Failed to register Upgrade!");
  }

  System.out.println("Successfully registered the Upgrade!");

}

TurtleDetecting Class:

public class TurtleDetecting implements ITurtleUpgrade {

@Override
public int getUpgradeID() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return 166;
}

@Override
public String getAdjective() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return "Detecting";
}

@Override
public TurtleUpgradeType getType() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return TurtleUpgradeType.Peripheral;
}

@Override
public ItemStack getCraftingItem() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return new ItemStack(Item.feather);
}
