Hey guys,
I'm trying to make my first mod right now. Most of the things in the mod are custom shapes though, not standard blocks.
I understand the basics of modding and I've done the tutorial here, but I can't find any help at all on getting a custom rendered block!
The few guides I did find were all written for Modloader, not Forge. I also found a guide to port from modloader to forge, but that seems like a very long-winded way of doing it.
Also, if possible I want to use data values, not tile entites. The block is designed for decoration, and there will be thousands of them on my server, so I don't want the extra memory usage of a tile entity.
So, does anyone know of a tutorial?
