In my mod, I have a custom modelled block. The first problem is when I place it down in-game it's invisible. You can see the bounding-boxes, but you can't see the block itself. The second problem is when i hold it in my hand it's a black/purple squared icon, instead of my custom modelled block. I have a class that implements IItemRenderer and I registered it correctly (I think) and I have a class that extends TileEntitySpecialRenderer which (I think) registered correctly.

 

BlockStreetlight.java:

 

package larsg310.mods.bd.block;

import larsg310.mods.bd.lib.RenderIds;
import larsg310.mods.bd.lib.Strings;
import larsg310.mods.bd.tileentity.TileEntityStreetlight;
import net.minecraft.block.BlockContainer;
import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;
import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.tileentity.TileEntity;
import net.minecraft.world.World;

public class BlockStreetlight extends BlockContainer
{

protected BlockStreetlight(int id)
{
	super(id, Material.iron);
	this.setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);
	this.setUnlocalizedName(Strings.STREETLIGHT_NAME);
	this.setHardness(3F);
	this.setResistance(5F);
}
@Override
public TileEntity createNewTileEntity(World world)
{
	return new TileEntityStreetlight();
}
@Override
public boolean isOpaqueCube()
{
	return false;
}
@Override
public boolean renderAsNormalBlock()
{
	return false;
}
@Override
public int getRenderType()
{
	return RenderIds.STREETLIGHT_RENDER_ID;
}
@Override
public void breakBlock(World par1World, int par2, int par3, int par4, int par5, int par6)
    {
        super.breakBlock(par1World, par2, par3, par4, par5, par6);
        par1World.removeBlockTileEntity(par2, par3, par4);
    }

}

 

 

ClientProxy.java:

 

package larsg310.mods.bd.core.proxy;

import larsg310.mods.bd.block.BDBlocks;
import larsg310.mods.bd.lib.BlockIds;
import larsg310.mods.bd.render.item.ItemStreetlightRenderer;
import larsg310.mods.bd.render.tileentity.TileEntityStreetlightRenderer;
import larsg310.mods.bd.tileentity.TileEntityStreetlight;
import net.minecraftforge.client.MinecraftForgeClient;
import cpw.mods.fml.client.registry.ClientRegistry;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.GameRegistry;


public class ClientProxy extends CommonProxy
{
@Override
public void registerRenderThings()
{
	GameRegistry.registerTileEntity(TileEntityStreetlight.class, "tileStreetlight");

	MinecraftForgeClient.registerItemRenderer(BlockIds.STREETLIGHT, new ItemStreetlightRenderer());
	ClientRegistry.bindTileEntitySpecialRenderer(TileEntityStreetlight.class, new TileEntityStreetlightRenderer());
}
}

 

 

I don't have anything in my CommonProxy and TileEntityStreetlight(I'll be adding stuff later on) class

 

ModelStreetlight.java (I'm using the new TechneModelLoader):

public ModelStreetlight()
{
	modelStreetlight = AdvancedModelLoader.loadModel(Models.STREETLIGHT);
}
public void render()
{
	modelStreetlight.renderAll();
}
}

Sorry we seem to be unable to mind read you're code at the moment, so it's hard to tell what you did wrong

I was in the middle of making the thread and I hit post accidently... But it's there now 

bump

Than I'll be making a new model class...

Than I'll be making a new model class...

That doesn't work either... I got the same outcome... In another mod it works well, but that's for mc 1.5.2.

 

EDIT: I just took a look at the eclipse console and it sais:

 

2013-07-11 18:35:34 [sEVERE] [ForgeModLoader] A TileEntity type larsg310.mods.bd.tileentity.TileEntityStreetlight has throw an exception trying to write state. It will not persist. Report this to the mod author

Which looks like to me that it has to do something with the writeToNBT metho. And it sais it's a bug... But there isn't anything in the TileEntityStreetlight class (yet)!!!

Another bump cause I really need the answer as I've been struggeling with this.

It seems like nobody has a answer to this...

Ok so now it renders in my inventory but it's purple.
