There's a Player.getName(myPlayer); you can use that if needed.

Does this work the same way, or are you just saying that this is a similar feature for getting the name?

Basically there is already a function for getting the player's name. However, I don't think it is possible to get the skin.

Ok. Thanks. I was saying, it should be easy to add since he made it so that BL gets the skin from the current username, therefor he could do the same thing but save it as data in BL just like the saveData and loadData (or whatever they're called) in ModPE

Why would someone want to GET their skin? Do you mean enabling the skin in-game?

Oh, ok! But for some reason I always want to take things from different angles... Why get the skin, when you can set the skin!?

He tries to set skin to player skin. (the brother of Steve is a zombie? ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)

I think you just do some not-suitable-for-paranoid-people things (to get the skin from the blocklauncher internals)

Yeah yeah, I know. It's like getPlayerEnt() (just an example). To set something, you need to get it first. However, Player.getSkin() would set the current skin to the entity. Something I just thought of was, Entity.getSkin()/Entity.getSkin. That way instead of spawning mobs with different skins, you can just set/get the entity's skin in-game. It would also work for the player.

Simple answer, please:
Does

Block.defineBlock()

work yet?

If so, what is the method for specifying its texture?

Currently, I can add Blocks with a new ID, and new Name, but the texture is blank. What are the correct parameters?

Thank you!!

Thank you!

Now, in that case.... is there a way to do something like this:

make a Wool Block drop a Feather, but ONLY if it is Pink Wool? (so other colors of wool are not affected?)

Thanks to anyone that can answer that...

Yeah, you just need to include a data value as well as the itemId in you "if" statement.

For example:

if(getTile(x, y, z) == 98 && getCarriedItem() == 267)	
{
preventDefault();
Entity.setCarriedItem(getPlayerEnt(),0);
Level.dropItem(x, y, z, 1, 413, 1, 0);}

I want this to only work with block 98, dammage 3 (chisled stone). Is it

&& getTileData() == 3

or something like that?
Thanks...

Thanks!

Is there something like getCarriedItemData() ? Or is it just for blocks that are placed?

These are all the getCarriedItem() functions:

getCarriedItem();
Player.getCarriedItem();
Player.getCarriedItemData();
Player.getCarriedItemCount();

I hope this helps!

Yes, its all great! Thank you very much.
+1 for all your help!

Every time I try and change my skin, it doesn't work! I know it won't work on multiplayer, but mine doesn't work at all. Please help.

Can we just define block texture for eaxh side with new int[256] of [(new int[16])×16]? by Block.setTezture(id, side, thatEnormousArray)
