[1.7.2] How to make a slab

[ronneke1996]

Hi,

 

Im new to making mods and i'm making progress in creating my own mod. There is one thing which I can't figure out though.

How to make half slabs.

 

I got this piece of code from the minecraftforums, but i dont know how to register it and if it even works.

package com.additionalblocks.main;

import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.block.BlockSlab;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemSlab;
import com.additionalblocks.main.*;

public class blockSlab extends ItemSlab {

public blockSlab(Block block) {
	super(block, (BlockSlab) AdditionalBlocks.blockHalfboneslab,(BlockSlab) AdditionalBlocks.blockDoubleboneslab, false);
	this.setMaxDamage(0);
	this.setHasSubtypes(true);
}
}

I got this in de main class:

	blockHalfboneslab = new blockSlab(blockHalfboneslab);
	blockDoubleboneslab = new blockSlab(blockDoubleboneslab);

                GameRegistry.registerBlock(blockHalfboneslab, "blockHalfboneslab");
	GameRegistry.registerBlock(blockDoubleboneslab, "blockDoubleboneslab");

ItemSlab isn't a Block, so no, this isn't going to work.

 

blockHalfboneslab = new blockSlab(blockHalfboneslab);

You should also get a compiler warning from that kind of stuff. Guess why ?

 

You need to use

GameRegistry.registerBlock(block,  itemClass, name);

or equivalent.

Thx I changed it now.

 

I got this now:

GameRegistry.registerBlock(blockHalfboneslab, blockSlab.class ,"blockHalfboneslab");
GameRegistry.registerBlock(blockDoubleboneslab, blockSlab.class ,"blockDoubleboneslab");

 

but still i got an error right here

Type mismatch cannot convert from blockSlab to Block

 

blockHalfboneslab = new blockSlab(blockHalfboneslab);
blockDoubleboneslab = new blockSlab(blockDoubleboneslab);

 

 

btw i made the variables like this:

 

public static Block blockHalfboneslab;
public static Block blockDoubleboneslab;

You need to extend net.minecraft.block.BlockSlab for those blocks.

I changed it to this.

 

package com.additionalblocks.main;

import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.block.BlockSlab;
import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemSlab;

import com.additionalblocks.main.*;

public abstract class blockSlab extends BlockSlab {

public blockSlab(boolean bool, Material material) {
	super(bool, material);
	// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}

}

 

and this

public static BlockSlab blockHalfboneslab;
public static BlockSlab blockDoubleboneslab;

 

Still not working.

Does anybody have a sample code for a simple half slab?

I could use it to figure out whats wrong with mine.
