Hello! And welcome to my UPDATED modding tutorial post. To start things off, we'll just do a new Block with the new updated ModLoader Requirements. Enjoy!

lol, please allow a couple minutes for the video to completely finish processing, I just uploaded it and it will be full 720p when complete

[eatingchipz]

looks promising. will watch!
btw, suggest you split up videos into 6 - 10 min videos. not everyone are willing to watch something so long.

[organizer009]

yes please make more tutorials. Every other tutorial I have followed has errors in coding, maybe because its for 1.4_01.

btw can you use this block to generate ore?

I can teach you guys how to do that too :3
I'll have to dig into the back of my brain because its been a long time since I've done ore generation lol. But yea, I will do.

Also I will split the videos up, I was going to originally but thought it might be easier to watch the whole thing at once.

Thank you guys for the feed back :3

Just like to say cheers for the video, really helped me get started. A little description into what Hardness and things do would be nice, also for the benefit of others could you put your code on here in code tags as 720p runs slowly for me, cheers (y).

But really thanks got it all working brilliantly, I'd have no clue where to start otherwise xd

Thanks a lot =] and yea, I'll get the code into the Original post asap. Thanks for viewing

Very nice and informative, also glad to see i'm not the only one that has trouble typing lol. But seriously i'd like to see a video tutorial on how to make a block with different images on the sides, for instance, Top have wood image, one side have stone image and so on, or like the pumpkin where the front has a face and the sides are different and the top is also different.

Pretty good TUT, thx

[joeyjam]

A hand, if possible?
I'm getting "int cannot be dereferenced" for

spidersilk = new BlockSpiderSilk(203, ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/joeyjam/blocks/silkblock.png").setHardness(0.5F).setResistance(0.5F).setBlockName("spidersilk"));

, the little ^ is just beneath the opening quotation mark of setBlockName("spidersilk"). Can't for the life of me understand what it means D:

Did you name your block BlockItemsilk or BlockItemSilk?
