ugh, this isn't working either....i have forge 771 if that helps...

oh and my modid is "MCE626_MoreBlocksMod" so would i have to make that one folder the exact same (with out uppercase letters) or can i have it as "mod_MoreBlocks" or what ever?

Quote from sheenrox82

the folder would have to be named mce626_moreblocksmod

Quote from MCE626

ok, since i forgot that i updated then decompiled with forge, it removed that folder, so i'm putting it in again, and trying..


EDIT: You have ".getUniqueBlockID()-256" in the block thing... (i have "BlockCryingObsidianid" since i use a config file) and i put that code in and get an error....i don't know what goes in that method, or if i really need that code....

"technically" the modID doesn't need to be the same as prefix to the colon in the unLocalizedName value nor the registerIcon value, but those 2 values(unLocalizedName and registerIcon) need to match the folder.

Like in my example in the video my modID is FoodCultures but my unLocalizedName and registerIcon are both "Shaqaruden:swordCorundum"

So for the folder structure, "assets/shaqaruden/textures/items/swordCorundum.png" the unLocalizedName needs to be "Shaqaruden:swordCorundum" and the same for the registerIcon.

So for you a new block would be formated like this in the main class file

myNewBlock = new myNewBlock(4000).setUnlocalizedName("[color=#282828][font=Verdana, Geneva, Tahoma, sans-serif][size=small][background=rgb(234, 233, 220)]MCE626_MoreBlocksMod:myNewBlock[/background][/size][/font][/color]");

and the registerIcon would be...

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public void registerIcons(IconRegister par1IconRegister) {
this.blockIcon = par1IconRegister.registerIcon("[color=#282828][font=Verdana, Geneva, Tahoma, sans-serif][size=small][background=rgb(234, 233, 220)]MCE626_MoreBlocksMod:myNewBlock[/background][/size][/font][/color]");
}

and the file structure should be(starting from src/minecraft)

Quote from sheenrox82

getUniqueBlockID is my own ID code.
Don't worry about it.

Quote from MCE626

hmm... it still doesn't work...i have my codes in "src/minecraft/mods/mod_MoreBlocks/Common" if that helps....



ok

Also: is this ur skin? -

Quote from sheenrox82

That's not my skin. Why do you ask?

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public void registerIcons(IconRegister par1IconRegister)
   {
       this.blockIcon = par1IconRegister.registerIcon("codelyoko:TowerRoots");
   }

I cant get my textures to load for the life of me.
Im using this to call the texture in my block file:

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public void registerIcons(IconRegister par1IconRegister)
{
this.blockIcon = par1IconRegister.registerIcon("codelyoko:TowerRoots");
}

I have the texture in forge/mcp/src/minecraft/assets/codelyoko/textures/blocks

help?

@Mod(modid= Lyoko.modID, name="Code: CRAFT", version="1.0")

public static final String modID = "codelyoko";

Quote from keegandeathman2

Because of the turorial i have the @Mod annotation refrence a string so I can refrence the modid from other files.

But:

@Mod(modid= Lyoko.modID, name="Code: CRAFT", version="1.0")

and then

public static final String modID = "codelyoko";

Quote from sheenrox82

Move your items to the preInit method. I suppose.

@Mod(modid = "MCE626_MoreBlocksMod", name = "More Blocks", version = "Beta 1.7")
@NetworkMod(clientSideRequired = true, serverSideRequired = false)
public class mod_MoreBlocks {

public static final String modid = "mod_MoreBlocks";

Quote from Shaqaruden

Did you watch the video? Your PreInit function should look like this.

@PreInit
public void PreInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent Event) {
//items and blocks here
}
