Hey all,

 

I've looked at the tutorials/posts about generating veins of custom blocks/ores in the world but I can't seem to get mine to appear at all. My code's below... what have I missed?

 

My ore generation class...

public class MineralGenerator implements IWorldGenerator {

@Override
public void generate(Random rand, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world, IChunkProvider chunkGen, IChunkProvider chunkProv) {
	if(world.provider.dimensionId == 0) {
		FMLLog.log(Level.SEVERE, "GENERATING CUSTOM ORES!");
		generateSurface(rand, chunkX, chunkZ, world, BlockStore.citrineUnref.blockID, 15, 6);
		generateSurface(rand, chunkX, chunkZ, world, BlockStore.peridotUnref.blockID, 15, 6);
		generateSurface(rand, chunkX, chunkZ, world, BlockStore.jasperUnref.blockID, 15, 6);
		generateSurface(rand, chunkX, chunkZ, world, BlockStore.aquamarineUnref.blockID, 15, 6);
		generateSurface(rand, chunkX, chunkZ, world, BlockStore.moonstoneUnref.blockID, 15, 6);
	}
}

private void generateSurface(Random rand, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world, int blockID, int noVeins, int veinSize) {
	for(int i = 0; i < noVeins; i++) {
		int randPosX = chunkX + rand.nextInt(16);
		int randPosY = rand.nextInt(64);
		int randPosZ = chunkZ + rand.nextInt(16);
		new WorldGenMinable(blockID, veinSize).generate(world, rand, randPosX, randPosY, randPosZ);
	}
}

}

 

Within my mod's main class...

@EventHandler
    public void load(FMLInitializationEvent event) {
    	commonProxy.registerRenderers();
    	
    	TabStore.registerTabs();
    	
    	BlockStore.registerBlocks();
    	ItemStore.registerItems();
    	
    	BlockStore.setupRecipes();
    	ItemStore.setupRecipes();
    	
    	GameRegistry.registerWorldGenerator(new MineralGenerator());
    }

You need to multiply the chunk coordinates by 16 before generating stuff.

 

		generateSurface(rand, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16, world, BlockStore.citrineUnref.blockID, 15, 6);
		generateSurface(rand, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16, world, BlockStore.peridotUnref.blockID, 15, 6);
		generateSurface(rand, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16, world, BlockStore.jasperUnref.blockID, 15, 6);
		generateSurface(rand, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16, world, BlockStore.aquamarineUnref.blockID, 15, 6);
		generateSurface(rand, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16, world, BlockStore.moonstoneUnref.blockID, 15, 6);

Awesome, that totally worked. Thanks!

FMLLog.log(Level.SEVERE, "GENERATING CUSTOM ORES!");

I encourage you not to use the SEVERE level, as it is only for critical errors.

Use the INFO level (or use FMLLog.info())
