Hello,

I know some stuff in Java, but I need help with world gen.

I would really like to generate my block like clay does.

Could anybody help me? :D

I'll be glad if anybody would help me.

I tried that, the only problem is that there were some errors which I couldn't fix however I tried.

We may be able to help you with those, but then we will need you to paste your code files into paste.minecraftforge.net and give us the link(s) :)

As well as giving us the error it shows in eclipse :)

If you guys dont get it.. then well ya.. try harder...

This may be helpful (note: several things are going on in that class, quicksand is the only one you need to look at).

 

I'm not sure that clay uses WorldGenLakes(...) but it probably uses something close.

Here's the main mod file: (I've removed all the blocks that aren't important)

Here's the Lithium Clay code:

http://paste.minecraftforge.net/view/e92fcf86

And finally here's the Lithium Clay Item code:

http://paste.minecraftforge.net/view/d41fef46

 

The WorldGen file is basicly the same as WorldGenClay (only with modified block ids)

http://paste.minecraftforge.net/view/834e1813

 

The problem is that I need to somehow define it in the main mod code for it to load up the WorldGenLithium file.

        worldGen = new WorldGenLithium (someVal);

        GameRegistry.registerWorldGenerator(worldGen);

I've tried doing that. It says that "The method registerWorldGenerator(IWorldGenerator) in the type GameRegistry is not applicable for the arguments (WorldGenLithium)"

Then implement IWorldGenerator rather than extending WorldGenerator

 

Note:

That will probably cause errors, which you will need to fix, but the bulk of what you want to happen will remain constant.  You'll probably just end up retyping a variable or method name.

I tried implementing IWorldGenerator, but then it want's to add unimplemented methods. I add the "public void generate(Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world, IChunkProvider chunkGenerator, IChunkProvider chunkProvider)" method and then I get completely stuck.

I don't know what am I supposed to do.

I'll give a cookie to someone who helps me with this.

Uh huh.  You add the unimplemented methods, the move the code that exists in the methods you have into those methods.

They are used as world coordinates in your code, obviously.

chunkX and chunkZ are the chunk coordinates, so you can easily go from there.

par3/4/5 are an XYZ block location.  IWorldGenerator passes a chunkX and chunkZ (so cX of 10 = world location of 160).  You'll have to calculate Y manually.

See this class for an example.

WOO!

Somehow figured it out by myself :)

 

Just had to change it, so it generates in sand, not in dirt

 

Ok, so now I've got a different problem...

It only generates once in the world (around spawn)

  • Author

I've got idea.

I could somehow go around the generation and somehow randomly replace generated Clay in the world.

Is there any way to randomly replace blocks with chance in the world?

Take a look at my IWorldGenerator class again.  Specifically the ch variable.

Thank you for your help, but now I'm actually looking for a way to randomly replace blocks in the world with chance. :)

You would need to poll the chunk for those blocks (see my "locate stronghold" code) then perform a replacement if the RNG says so.

I'm afraid that I'll need a code for that. How I said, I'm not that good in Java :/

Oh, I am so sorry for bothering you.

I just realized I commented out "WorldGenLithium worldGen = new WorldGenLithium();"

But really, thank you for your help :)
