I admit im not that good with JAVA but i thought i had enough knowladge of it before i started this... What's metadata? well... i know what it is I just dont really know what you mean by adding metadata... Also, this code worked before, the only reason that im remaking it is cause i lost the previous project... so i have no idea why this isnt working.

OK, What im trying to do is make a universal block file so that im not makeing a thousand BlockNAMEOFBLOCK files. While trying to do this however i had to make the file very flexible... i dont have the code with me so this is the basic gist of what it looks like. public BlockIB extends Block{ public static int iD; public static int qD; public BlockIB(int id, int picId, Material material, int quantDrop, int idDrop){ super(id, picId, material); if(idDrop != 0) { iD = idDrop; }else{ iD = this.blockID; } qD = quantDrop; } public int idDropped(Random rand){ return iD; } public int quantityDropped(Random rand){ return qD; } @Override public String getTextureFile(){ return CommonProxy.BLOCK_PNG; } } If you see some stupid error, its either my problem or a problem i had copying this down. i have horrible memory...

Before you start trying to add a block to world generation, you need to program the basic mod file correctly... I hope you dont mind, but i sorted out the base mod file to help you a little. @Mod(modid = "Parallel Worlds", name = "Parallel Worlds", version = "1.0.0") @NetworkMod(clientSideRequired = true, serverSideRequired = false) public class ParallelWorlds { @SidedProxy(clientSide = "parallelworlds.client.ClientProxyParallelWorlds", serverSide = "parallelworlds.common.CommonProxyParallelWorlds") public static ClientProxyParallelWorlds proxy = new ClientProxyParallelWorlds(); @Init public void load(FMLInitializationEvent event){ gameRegisters(); languageRegisters(); proxy.registerRenders(); } public void gameRegisters(){ GameRegistry.registerBlock(parallelworldsBlock); GameRegistry.registerBlock(NightiumOre); } public void languageRegisters(){ LanguageRegistry.addName(NightiumOre, "NightiumOre"); LanguageRegistry.addName(parallelworldsBlock, "Nightium"); } public static final Block NightiumOre = new BlockNightiumOre(681, 1, Material.iron).setBlockName("Nightium Ore").setHardness(8.0F).setResistance(100000.0F).setStepSound(Block.soundStoneFootstep).setLightValue(1.0F); public static final Block parallelworldsBlock = new BlockParallelWorldsBlock(682, 0, Material.iron).setBlockName("Nightium").setHardness(8.0F).setResistance(10000.0F).setStepSound(Block.soundStoneFootstep); } You made it look a lot more complecated then it had to be, and really there were several errors. I hope this helps

Thanks but.. it says when opening the gui that its the 'YourMod'.instance and i have no idea what that instance is. I think that's the last thing i need though

Umm... What's a client proxy

Thanks!

Hi, im a bit new to modding and i have hit a bit of a dead end when it comes to generating ores in the world. I have looked at some other threads with similar problems but none of them have seemed to help me. I also looked through some of the FML code with some generation programs but some of the parameters like the chunkprovider dont really ring a bell for me. Any help's nice Also, I have trouble with opening a GUI when it comes to right clicking on a block. The error report says that it is missing a mapping and i dont know what that means. --Vem
