My friend and I are working on our first mod and we have been using so mush of the code you have released. Thanks!
Also If you wanna go see a preview head on over to gristlyisme and check out DragonFalls. It's going to be a major dimension mod. Anyway, thanks again! (p.s. will you be making an armour tutorial?)

Declare the block before the biome. There are no ids remaining under 127 in 1.3.2 but they may have fixed the decorating issue.

You have to make the ID more than 200.

How do you declare a Block in this Java file?

Quote from Dragonphly77

public static Block yourBlock = new Block(id);

I'll need an example,

The tutorial shows a pretty good example I believe.

package net.minecraft.src;
public class mod_Block extends BaseMod
{
public static final Block nameHere = new BlockNameHere(160, 0).setBlockName("anynamehere").setHardness(3F).setResistance(4F).setLightValue(1F).setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock).setStepSound(Block.soundGrassFootstep);
public void load()
{
nameHere.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/image.png");
ModLoader.registerBlock(nameHere);
ModLoader.addName(nameHere, "In-Game Name Here");
ModLoader.addRecipe(new ItemStack(nameHere, 1), new Object [] {"#", Character.valueOf('#'), Block.dirt});
}
public String getVersion()
{
return "1.3.2";
}
}

Specifically the first few lines here:

public static final Block nameHere = new BlockNameHere(160, 0).setBlockName("anynamehere").setHardness(3F).setResistance(4F).setLightValue(1F).setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock).setStepSound(Block.soundGrassFootstep);

remove

.setLightValue(1F)

if you do not want your block to emit light.

The bottom half of my Grass block isn't working, it's just purple, I changed the texture, but it's still purple.

Can we get a screen cap? If you are trying to use a texture sheet, they do not work in modloader. Also, make sure the texture is 16 pixels by 16 pixels.

The underside of my grass block is 16 by 16, I also used different textures for the bottom of my grass block, but none worked.

I mean to put the public static final line of the block before the public static final line of the biome.

great tutorials just figured out how to add entity for 1.3.2

hi @TechGuy543, my mod is being a ­b**ch, no joke. I could say im pretty expeirienced now at ModLoader modding, but for some reason, the OverRide isnt working. I have checked and everythingis being linked to else etc etc.
But for some reason, VolcaniteBlock.png doesnt want to load. And i have checked i have put it in the right directory, and it still says it cant find it. Please help:

Please help, it even says in the actual ModLoader.txt that it has loaded it -_______- confused much.

Code for image overrides or no help.

How would I disable a default biome? Also, how would I make it snow in a biome? Finally, how could I make it constantly snow in a biome? Thanks a bunch!

I have a weird problem, When I add 2 FireRuby's to the Crafting Table, It creates 1 FireRuby, The recipe isn't in the base Mod for my FireRuby's or in Crafting Manager. I've tried making a new shapeless recipe that requires two fire ruby's, but it didn't work, I'v also looked through ALL the files I created, but the recipe, "doesn't" exist. There was a Shapeless recipe that required two FireRuby's, But I deleted it and its host mod along time ago, Help?

What's the code for checking the block's metadata?

Because I want to have something like this

if (block metadata == 1)
{
...

I need help badly!

I am having a rather frustrating problem with my mod where the textures aren't showing up for my blocks, and they are being overriden with random Minecraft ones. I checked the path, and there is no problem there. There is also no errors.

Here's my code for the block:

public static final Block fireOre = new blockFireOre(151,0).setHardness(0.5F).setResistance(5.0F).setBlockName("sapb");

Here's my texture override:

fireOre.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/gui/items.png","/Itemss/fo.png");
ModLoader.registerBlock(fireOre);

ModLoader.addName(fireOre, "Firestone Ore");

and here's my blockFireOre.java file:

package net.minecraft.src;
import java.util.Random;
public class blockFireOre extends Block
{
public blockFireOre(int par1, int par2)
{
super(par1, par2, Material.rock);
this.setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);
}

public int quantityDropped(int par1)
{
return (1);
}

public int idDropped(int par1, Random par2Random, int par3)
{
return mod_bettertoolz.fireStone.shiftedIndex;
}


public void onBlockDestroyedByPlayer(World world, int x, int y, int z, int meta)
{

this.dropXpOnBlockBreak(world, x, y, z, 10);
}
}

please help! this is very annoying!
