Can't manage to give a texture to a block

[traxys]

I am at the very starting point of moding, I managed to "make" a block , but I can't manage to give it a texture

 

I loooked on pahimar(youtube) tutorials for the begining , so I have the basic stucture he showed , but since he did not post any video , I tried to do somethings my self.

 

So here is my code :

 

First: structure :

 

Ininity bows

  |        |-------traxys.infbow

  |        |                    |

  |        |                    |

  |        |                    |---------Reference.java

  |        |

  |        |-------traxys.infbow.proxy(there are two java files , (ckient & common proxy) but there are nearly blank)

  |        |

  |        |-------mcmod.info

  |        |

  |        |-------pack.mcmeta

  |---Ressources

              |

              |------assets.infbow.lang(empty)

              |

              |------assets.infbow.textures.blocks

              |                    |

              |                    |---------hardWall.png(a 16*16 file)

              |

              |------assets.infbow.textures.item(also empty)

 

Here are my codes :

}

}

 

}

 

 

GenBlock.java

 

 

package traxys.infbow.lib;

}

 

 

pack.mcmeta

 

 

{

  "pack":{

      "description":"Infinity Bows textures"

  }

}

in your block.class do this

 

 

 @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    @Override
    public void registerIcons(IconRegister register) {
    	this.blockIcon = register.registerIcon(Reference.MOD_ID + ":" + (this.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5)));

 

replace "Reference.MOD_ID with with the name of the class that contains your modid (most likely your base class) and your modid

[Draco18s]

(You don't need to override registerIcons, but it will work using the same details as my post)

 

this.setTextureName("MODID" + ":" + "BLOCKNAME")

 

Where MODID is whatever you want to name your assets folder and BLOCKNAME is whatever you want to name the texture file.  These must be lower case (if they're not, they will be converted).

 

Now go to /src/minecraft/assets and create a new folder there called MODID, inside that a folder called textures inside that a folder called blocks inside that add your texture file named BLOCKNAME.png

 

Voila.

Sorry I did a miss click , so my post was not ready .....

[Draco18s]

You haven't done any of the things suggested to you, your block class is still basically empty.  You haven't set its name, texture, hardness, resistance, or anything.

I did it in the Main Mod Class(InfinityBow.java) , It works if I do it in another class ?

 

And Can I put the texture somewhere else than the minecraft texture directory (in a directory for my mod in a folder in an otherplace than minecraft texture (or is thant when the mod is release?)?)

[traxys]

Thanks to evry one ! I did it with this piece of code :

.setTextureName("infbow:hardWall");
