[1.16.5] A few questions about various stuff

[Tavi007]

Hey,

Indescriptive title aside I currently need help with 2 things. The first one is most likely something easy to fix and I'm just to stupid right now. I got the famous black-purple texture displayed as my block texture, but the block itemstack is showing the correct texture tho. Here are the blockstate and model file:

Spoiler

model:
 

{
  "parent": "minecraft:block/template_glazed_terracotta",
  "textures": {
    "pattern": "minecraft:block/essence_block_darkness"
  }
}

blockstate:

{
  "variants": {
    "facing=east": {
      "model": "elementalcombat_weaponry:block/essence_block_darkness",
      "y": 270
    },
    "facing=north": {
      "model": "elementalcombat_weaponry:block/essence_block_darkness",
      "y": 180
    },
    "facing=south": {
      "model": "elementalcombat_weaponry:block/essence_block_darkness"
    },
    "facing=west": {
      "model": "elementalcombat_weaponry:block/essence_block_darkness",
      "y": 90
    }
  }
}

The block should behave the same as the glazed_terracotta. So what am I missing?
Also here is a link to directory in my git repository:
https://github.com/Tavi007/ElementalCombat-Weaponry/tree/main/src/main/resources/assets/elementalcombat_weaponry

My second problem is about the build.gradle file. I finished another mod, which is a library mod. Before I try to upload it to Maven Central, I would like to test it first by importing it into my test project. Since I got the jar locally I added

implementation fg.deobf(files('C:/Minecraft Modding/ElementalCombat/build/libs/elementalcombat-forge-1.16.5-1.1.1-api.jar'))

to the dependencies section of the build.gradle file. This does add the jar as library, but I run into a FieldNotFound exception on startup. The missing field has an obfuscated name, so I don't really know, what is missing. All I know is in which line the error occures and it's this one: https://github.com/Tavi007/ElementalCombat/blob/b562cba34d2bee7a647aa4d088372c917d67a3d4/src/main/java/Tavi007/ElementalCombat/init/EnchantmentList.java#L39

Do I get the error, because the minecraft mapping wasn't applied correctly? Or is it due to something completly different? I'm at a complete loss here.

And here is the link to the gradle file: https://github.com/Tavi007/ElementalCombat-Weaponry/blob/main/build.gradle
(It currently only uses the api jar, because this way I can keep working on it.)

"pattern": "minecraft:block/essence_block_darkness"

I don't think the minecraft namespace has block/essence_block_darkness

[Tavi007]

You are right. I forgot to revert it back (I was testing, if minecraft:block/stone was working, which it was not. I had the same problem: itemstack is looking fine (display a stone block), but the actual block was missing its texture). I changed the namespace to elementalcombat_weaponry, which should be the correct one. Sadly the issue with the texture persist.

I sill need help

I believe the problem is because in your code you assign ESSENSE_BLOCK_DARKNESS to a new Block(), which does not have directionality, and so none of the variants in your blockstates definition will ever apply.

In order to fix this, you probably want to create a class for your blocks that extends HorizontalBlock (take a look at the GlazedTerracottaBlock class as an example), and in the register method, use that class instead of Block.

You are completly right. Swapping Block to GlazedTerracottaBlock fixed the problem (No need to create a new Block type, since the block should behave excatly like the terracotta block anyway). Thank you!
