Wrong name in creative menu [1.7.2]

[thefoothing]

it appears as tile.test.name i want it to just display test

[Draco18s]

There's a reason the function is called setUnlocalizedName()

[thefoothing]

I did

GameRegistry.registerBlock(portalFrame, "test");

LanguageRegistry.addName(portalFrame, "test");

[Draco18s]

Fuck the language registry.  You shouldn't need it at all.

 

Create a new text file in /assets/MODID/lang called "en_US.lang" and do this:

 

tile.test.name=test

 

BAM.  Roasted.

[thefoothing]

did that still returns tile.test.name

tile.test.name=test

 

This works for me, but how do you package this file in the .jar file when you distribute the mod? Or is it still too early in the 1.7 forge for that?

[CJLetsGame]

put the entire assets folder inside the zip for your mod.

No. if assets exist at src/main/resources running gradle build will bundle that into the final mod jar.

Totally agree, lang files > LanguageRegistry. Lets you localize the mod without touching a single line of java code, excellent for collaborative work on github. I've gotten quite a few pull requests for no other reason than for the person to graciously supply the lang file for their language.
