I have a problem when I try to add an icon texture so hopefully someone can help me.

my code is-

Torch2.iconIndex = ModLoader.addOverride("/gui/items.png", "/torch.png");

and the errors are-

== MCP 7.2 (data: 7.2, client: 1.3.2, server: 1.3.2) ==
# found ff, ff patches, srgs, name csvs, doc csvs, param csvs, renumber csv, ast

Press any key to continue . . .

You're trying to texture a block the same way you texture an item, try changing iconIndex to blockIndexInTexture.

How do I use a modded block for a recipe? Noob question, I know, but I attempted a guess at it from loooking at various java files and I still failed:

Focusing on the stair block, because that's the only issue. I took it out and it ran perfectly fine.

package net.minecraft.src;
			   
public class mod_ObsidianTiles extends BaseMod
{	   
//Public State Finals for Blocks

public static final Block DiamondTile = new BlockDiamondTile(190, 0).setBlockName("DiamondTile").setHardness(15F).setResistance(1000F).setLightValue(1F).setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock).setStepSound(Block.soundStoneFootstep);

public static final Block RectangleTile = new BlockRectangleTile(191, 0).setBlockName("RectangleTile").setHardness(15F).setResistance(1000F).setLightValue(1F).setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock).setStepSound(Block.soundStoneFootstep);

public static final Block SquareTile = new BlockSquareTile(192, 0).setBlockName("SquareTile").setHardness(15F).setResistance(1000F).setLightValue(1F).setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock).setStepSound(Block.soundStoneFootstep);

//Public State Finals for Stairs

public static final Block DiamondStair= new BlockDiamondStairStairs(193, 0).setBlockName("stairsDiamondStair").setHardness(15F).setResistance(1000F);



	    public void load()	 
	    {			  
		   
		 //Blocks
		
		 DiamondTile.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/Textures/DiamondTile.png");
		 ModLoader.registerBlock(DiamondTile);
		 ModLoader.addName(DiamondTile, "Obsidian Tile");
		 ModLoader.addRecipe(new ItemStack(DiamondTile, 4), new Object [] {"#", Character.valueOf('#'), Block.obsidian});
		
		 RectangleTile.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/Textures/RectangleTile.png");
		 ModLoader.registerBlock(RectangleTile);
		 ModLoader.addName(RectangleTile, "Obsidian Tile");
		 ModLoader.addRecipe(new ItemStack(RectangleTile, 8), new Object [] {"##", Character.valueOf('#'), Block.obsidian});
		
		 SquareTile.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/Textures/SquareTile.png");
		 ModLoader.registerBlock(SquareTile);
		 ModLoader.addName(SquareTile, "Obsidian Tile");
		 ModLoader.addRecipe(new ItemStack(SquareTile, 12), new Object [] {"##", "##", Character.valueOf('#'), Block.obsidian});
		
		 //Stairs
		
		 DiamondStair.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/Textures/DiamondTile.png");
		    ModLoader.registerBlock(DiamondStair);
		    ModLoader.addName(DiamondStair, "Obsidian Stair");
		    ModLoader.addRecipe(new ItemStack(DiamondStair, 6), new Object [] {"# ", "## ", "###", Character.valueOf('#'), mod_ObsidianTiles.DiamondTile});
		   
		
	    }
	   
	    public String getVersion()
	    {			  
			    return "1.3.2";  
			   
	    }
	   
}

	 }
	
	 public String getVersion()
	 {			
			 return "1.3.2";
			
	 }
	
}

Is there a crash or error report? The code looks fine at first glance.

I don't have time for any tutorials. I can't give a time on when I will get tutorials done, someone will hold me to it; something which I don't want to happen.

You need to add an additional space in the first row of the crafting matrix.

Thank you both of you, I also realised for some reason that half-slabs cannot derive from modded block textures. You have to create two separate copies and name them individually, for both the single and the full slab (2 stacked).

You're trying to texture a block the same way you texture an item, try changing iconIndex to blockIndexInTexture.

thanks but that just messes up the torch texture and the torch icon

The 7 in the for loop is the rarity of your block when generated.

I see that this recipe would return the bucket of water when you smelt it. How do you do that with a crafting recipe?

Could you make a tutorial on how to make a block that will turn into something when you place it like the instant structures mod?

It is very unlikely that TechGuy will make a tutorial, but, it you want to do something like that, look at the structure generation tutorial, and then look at the ender dragons class (because it generates a "structure" when it dies, so, a 'on demand' structure)

I haven't changed anything from your tutorial except the texture paths and the name of the items. I even copy-pasted. The game works fine with other texture paths to different images.

So Im getting this error when making my multi-textured blocks. I have made and added the textures to minecraft but I get to errors about the variables.

Error:
http://prntscr.com/gwc4g

Code:

mod_***

package net.minecraft.src;
import java.util.Random;

public class mod_NetherCraft extends BaseMod
{

public static final Block NetherLog = new BlockNetherLog(183,0)
.setStepSound(Block.soundWoodFootstep).setBlockName("NetherLog").setHardness(2.0F)
.setLightValue(0.250F);

public static int NetherLogBottom = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png",
"/textures/NetherLogBottom.png");
public static int NetherLogTop = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", 
"/textures/NetherLogTop.png");
public static int NetherLogSides = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png",
"/textures/NetherLogSides.png");


public void load()
{


NetherLog.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/textures/NetherLog.png");
ModLoader.registerBlock(NetherLog);
ModLoader.addName(NetherLog, "Nether Log");

BlockNetherLog

package net.minecraft.src;

public class BlockNetherLog extends Block
{
public BlockNetherLog(int i, int j)
{
super(i, j, Material.wood);
}

public int getBlockTextureFromSideAndMetadata (int i, int j)
{
return getBlockTextureFromSide(i);
}

public int GetBlockTextureFromSide(int i)
{
if (i == 0)
{
return mod_NetherCraft.NetherLogBottom.png;
}
if (i == 1)
{
return mod_NetherCraft.NetherLogTop.png;
}
else
{
return mod_NetherCraft.NetherLogSides;
}
}
}

Thanks

Just trying to make a block and item. The 9 of said item make the block. However, neither will show up on creative, but it isn't crashing. Is there anything wrong with my code?

package net.minecraft.src;

public class mod_Reiatsu extends BaseMod
{
public static final Item Reiatsu = new ItemReiatsu(5000).setItemName("Reiatsu");
public static final Block ReiatsuBlock = new BlockReiatsuBlock(137,0).setBlockName("Reiatsu Block").setHardness(5F).setResistance(30F).setLightValue(8F).setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);
public void load ()
{
Reiatsu.iconIndex = ModLoader.addOverride("/gui/items/png", "/mods/reiatsu.png");
ModLoader.addName(Reiatsu, "Reiatsu");

ReiatsuBlock.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/mods/reiatsu_block.png");
ModLoader.registerBlock(ReiatsuBlock);
ModLoader.addName(ReiatsuBlock, "Reiatsu Block");
ModLoader.addRecipe(new ItemStack(ReiatsuBlock, 1), new Object [] {"###", "###", "###", Character.valueOf('#'), Item.Reiatsu});
}
public String getVersion()
{
return "1.3.2";
}
}
