Hi guys, it's me again. I have a blocks that has one asphalt texture and it says here. In my renderer I "stick" some texture on it's top face, but they don't render and by the way how can I make them able to rotate only themselves, not touching the base texture? Here's the code: RenderBlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0 package trafficStuffMod.client; import org.lwjgl.opengl.GL11; import trafficStuffMod.common.*; import net.minecraft.block.Block; import net.minecraft.client.renderer.RenderBlocks; import net.minecraft.client.renderer.Tessellator; import net.minecraft.util.Icon; import net.minecraft.world.IBlockAccess; import cpw.mods.fml.client.registry.ISimpleBlockRenderingHandler; import cpw.mods.fml.client.registry.RenderingRegistry; import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side; import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly; public class RenderBlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0 implements ISimpleBlockRenderingHandler { public static int blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0_renderID; public RenderBlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0() { RenderBlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0.blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0_renderID = RenderingRegistry.getNextAvailableRenderId(); } @Override public void renderInventoryBlock(Block block, int metadata, int modelID, RenderBlocks renderBlocks) { /** Tessellator tessellator = Tessellator.instance; GL11.glTranslatef(-0.5F, -0.5F, -0.5F); tessellator.startDrawingQuads(); renderBlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0(0, 0, 0, renderBlocks); tessellator.draw(); GL11.glTranslatef(0.5F, 0.5F, 0.5F); */ } @Override public boolean renderWorldBlock(IBlockAccess IBlockAccess, int X, int Y, int Z, Block block, int modelID, RenderBlocks renderBlocks) { Tessellator tessellator = Tessellator.instance; TileEntityBlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0 BOA_Yellow_0 = (TileEntityBlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0) IBlockAccess.getBlockTileEntity(X, Y, Z); BlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0 blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0 = (BlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0) TrafficStuffMod.blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0; int subtype = BOA_Yellow_0.getSubtype(); int age = BOA_Yellow_0.getAge(); switch (subtype) { case 1: renderBlocks.renderFaceYPos(blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0, X, Y, Z, BlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0.AY_1); renderBlocks.uvRotateTop = 0; break; case 2: renderBlocks.renderFaceYPos(blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0, X, Y, Z, BlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0.AY_2); renderBlocks.uvRotateTop = 0; break; case 3: renderBlocks.renderFaceYPos(blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0, X, Y, Z, BlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0.AY_1); renderBlocks.uvRotateTop = 1; break; case 4: renderBlocks.renderFaceYPos(blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0, X, Y, Z, BlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0.AY_2); renderBlocks.uvRotateTop = 1; break; case 5: renderBlocks.renderFaceYPos(blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0, X, Y, Z, BlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0.AY_1); renderBlocks.uvRotateTop = 3; break; case 6: renderBlocks.renderFaceYPos(blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0, X, Y, Z, BlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0.AY_2); renderBlocks.uvRotateTop = 3; break; case 7: renderBlocks.renderFaceYPos(blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0, X, Y, Z, BlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0.AY_1); renderBlocks.uvRotateTop = 2; break; case 8: renderBlocks.renderFaceYPos(blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0, X, Y, Z, BlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0.AY_2); renderBlocks.uvRotateTop = 2; break; } boolean flag = renderBlocks.renderStandardBlock(blocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0, X, Y, Z); renderBlocks.uvRotateSouth = 0; renderBlocks.uvRotateEast = 0; renderBlocks.uvRotateWest = 0; renderBlocks.uvRotateNorth = 0; renderBlocks.uvRotateTop = 0; renderBlocks.uvRotateBottom = 0; return flag; } @Override public boolean shouldRender3DInInventory() { return true; } @Override public int getRenderId() { return ClientProxy.BOA_Yellow_0_renderID; } private void renderBlocksOfAsphalt_Yellow_0(int X, int Y, int Z, RenderBlocks renderBlocks) { } }

Nah, It looks like I'm just going to do textures that already have arrows on them, because of the lighting. Reasons why I wanted to have them separate is because I'm already using the arrow texture on a block so I wanted just to "stick" it to another block and to have less textures in my mod file after I release the new update. Since I can't really make any progress because of the lighting I'm switching back to my old system. Thanks for the help!

Removed the code since the problem is "solved".

Hey guys, it's me again with another crazy idea. How can I make my block have multiple texture layers like the grass block has. What I want to do is to have a base texture on all sides, then have transparent textures on all sides(which in my case will be an arrow) and then the last layer for textures is on that kinda adds some "shadows" on the block, it is transparent too(it will represend the block age, which I have with my tile entity). So I have 3 layers: 1. base texture 2. arrow or line texture(transparent) 3. "shadows" texture(transparent) So what do I need to do? Add some methods to my block class, or make a renderer for my block? Tell me.

Yes! It worked! Thank you Mazetar!!!

I really don't know what I'm doing right now, can you help me a little bit what should I do in that method, because I'm tired as f@ck so I don't know where my head is right now.

oh, it's nice to know that there will be no big changes that will be drama for me, anyway... yes, I've been looking on the Minecraft Forge Modding Tutorials Wiki and I saw that I'm missing the onDataPacket method, I'm adding it, let's see if it works!

here is a funny thing, I will have to rewrite everything, right? I'm talking about the packets because as I heard Minecraft now uses Netty for packet handling, right?

I did and it sets the correct subtype, but it doesn't when the world unloads/when you exit it

Hello. I have a problem with my tile entity. When I place it in the world is has correct textures, but when I exit the world and enter it again, the textures reset. Basically I have a tile entity just to save what subtype my block has and based on that give it textures for all sides, but they reset and the subtype isn't saved after exiting the world. So can anyone help me?

well I do get now why were you talking like this: delete this shit in your code I do have a little bit of java knowledge but I have so much to learn about anyway, thank you guys now Moritz, what did you mean with itemNBTData?

look at BlockChest.java, there are some methods that may help you

well, I'm speechless...

thanks Moritz! see I've been looking for someone that will help me like you without telling me to learn java or writing a text with rage. thank you very much!

so really, nothing else but learn java, I already know that, I came here because of something I don't know

well like other people say: I a Java noob..

ok I found this code on a post on these forums and I just edited some things that I had to and I really didn't care for some things. and like you I do think that I need to read more about classes that Minecraft uses.

OK, so I've been playing with tile entities for a week and I actually learned a lot, well kinda. But anyway. I wanted to make a block with more than 100 metadatas/subtypes and I already knew that I need tile entities. I was looking on the forums if anyone ever actually needed help with this and I found one but it helped me partially. What I did make is 100 blocks to appear in one creative tab and I learned how to put textures on those block that are actually tile entities. Now I've got problems that I can't solve and I need your help. The problems are: 1. Blocks don't have textures when placed on the world but they do have in the creative tab. 2. When I drop the block with metadata 1 and 0, they both make a single stack and after I pick it up, the stack will be blocks wit metadata 0. 3. A weird problem with names. This is actually the fist time I'm "playing" with tile entities, because I was stuck with blocks that have metadatas, so if there are some silly parts of my code feel free to laugh 'till you die.

This isn't the final code. So can anyone help me?

I did but can someone help me?

Well it did help a little bit, but what I really wanna do is to make a block with around 100 subtypes. I only want to change textures, that's all. So maybe some code will be helpfull.

Hey guys, it's me again with another crazy question. How can I make a block with more than 16 metadatas(maybe around 100 metadatas). I know that a regular block can only have 16 metadatas and that I need a tile entity to make more of them. So can somebody help me with that?

Go to my FB page to get the latest new about the Asphalt Mod

Here is the link for the mod, it's on Minecraft Forums: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1892017-asphalt-mod-110-for-minecraft-162/#entry23364297
