I'm no longer going to update this API!

Here is a tutorial how you can add blocks with modloader:

Creative API 1.2.5
previous versions


The Creative API can use for adding custom Blocks and Items to the Creative Mode inventory.

User have to install the API like Modloader if they want to use Mods working with this API.


Tutorial for developers:

Spoiler:

Install the API like Modloader in the minecraft.jar before using MCP.

Add the following into load() of your mod_ file:

add simple blocks:

			CreativeAPI.addBlock(yourBlock);

add blocks with subtypes (like wool):

			CreativeAPI.addBlock(yourBlock, 1);

add items with subtypes (like dyes or charcoal):

			CreativeAPI.addItem(yourItem, 1);

Regular items don't need to add!

Pro-Tipp:

Use try/catch to avoid minecraft crashing, for user they won't play in Creative Mode or install the API.

Example:

public class mod_YourMod extends BaseMod
{

	public static final Block yourBlock= new Block(200);

	public load()
	{
		ModLoader.registerBlock(yourBlock);
		ModLoader.addName(yourBlock, "Block Name");
		
		ModLoader.addRecipe(...);

		try
		{
			CreativeAPI.addBlock(yourBlock);
			CreativeAPI.addItem(Item.coal, 1);
		} catch (NoClassDefFoundError e)
		{
			ModLoader.getLogger().fine((new StringBuilder("Creative API not found! ")).toString());
		}

		
	}

	public String getVersion()
	{
		return "1.2.4";
	}

}

There ^

[cooldudepoke]

Oh wait!

Nevermind
This API supports item and block subtypes...mine doesn't.
Carry on...lol

Edit: Oops, my API uses itemstacks so it can do subtypes anyway

[pitman-87]

Oh wow I didn't noticed that one, exactly same name lol.

You should provide the source code, It's not really convenient to have to decompile all over again just to install this.

You didn't need to decompile if you just want to install the mod  

You only need to decompile it with mcp one time like modloader, not every time or do you have the source of modloader?

I also have an API that I was planning on adding this to, but I wanted it to take use of all new cappabiliies of 1.8. OnePoint8API   (link in sig)

Do you have MCP mapping for this?

You actually don't need it, it's optional.

Install it like modloader, put all the class-files of the zip into your minecraft.jar.

Could I get, like... a tutorial or something?

I'm java illiterate, sorry. I can install it... I just haven't the foggiest idea as to its usage. Do I make a file and punch text into it somewhere? Is there already a file? Does the mod make a file?

[anLouisCh]

Am I right in saying that this is only useful if a mod in question has added in code that takes advantage of it?
