Rendering a Block with a techne model

[Mii1128]

I have got the Model.class the renderer.class and a Block for it how i register the handler there are only Entityrenderers.

or ISimpleBlockRenderingHelper

As far as I know, you'll need a TileEntity. It can be very simple though (an empty class will do). When you have this TileEntity, you can register it along with your render class with

ClientRegistry.bindTileEntitySpecialRenderer(Class<? extends TileEntity> tileEntityClass, TileEntitySpecialRenderer specialRenderer)

provided that your render class is an instance of TileEntitySpecialRenderer.

Edit: see the next two posts instead :=)

 

Naitenne covers:

Basic Tile Entity

Modelling in Techne

Custom Tile Entity Renderer

 

in his tutorials, found here:

i also cover those on the forge wiki except im using wavefront file because techne sucks

HydroFlame's tutorials are the best you can get on the topic, I would suggest you rather look into them:

http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Tile_entity_special_renderer 

http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Tessellator

http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Using_wavefront_model

 

They should provide a nice read, make sure you do the pre-reqs before starting else your life might get a bit harder than it has to

hydroflame, you are so original and talented — use your own methods instead of standard ones, model .obj files instead of ModelBase, say regular ways 'suck' and so on...

I want to resemble you, that not everybody is good in 3D modelling, and Techne (or FMCModeler) is much easier for beginners like OP. So, maybe you'll stop your vainglory and saying easy ways are 'fucking retarded' (that is also rude, if you didn't know.)?

[hydroflame]

there's really no difference in term of difficulty between using wavefront or techne, except techne will only allow you to use very primitive shapes while wavefront you can do anything. sure the learning curve of every 3d model editor is a bit bigger, but at least you get legitimately good models.

 

also, ease off the sarcasm

 

and btw, yes some code notch made is pretty retarded, tweaking it a little can give you MUCH more power.

 

So, maybe you'll stop your vainglory

I don't think you've noticed that I'm actually giving my utility code away. I'm not some douchebag that's just posting that he has better code but doesn't share it

Jeez, whats with the sarcasm? I work with hydroflame, he is quite the nice guy once you get to know him

 

Just because someone is stating their opinion on something, doesn't mean you have to yell at them. Get to know people before you comment about them. And he has a point when he says that he shares his code, he helps me all the time
