setBlockBounds based on meta/damage?

Hi guys, Currently having a go at converting my mod from modloader to Forge, at the same time I would like to change things over to use one BlockId instead of the current 6. All gone well so far, textures working, blocks rendering fine, just one thing I need to do, and I can't figure it out.

 

One of the 6 blocks is post-shaped instead of a regular block, so I used:

public void setBlockBoundsForItemRender()
    {
		setBlockBounds(0.4f,0.0f,0.4f,  0.6f,0.9f,0.6f);  //post shaped
    }

 

So, is there any way I can do that ONLY if the meta/damage value of the block is ==5

Doesn't Redpower do something like this to have all those building blocks/half blocks etc?

 

As a follow up question, in NEI mod, hovering over the blocks, redpower has stuff like 2345:4096 is that Block ID 2345, meta 4096 ? If so how do I use block IDs above 255 and in a tutorial, I read you can only have meta values up to 16.

Well I kind off disagree on this, *especially* if you have a lot of mods installed you are bound to get block id conflicts, so it is indeed very nice if devs try to conserve ids through smart use of metadata. Consider how quickly you might run out of ids if mods like redpower didn't use metadata. Further more it is easier to fix block id conflicts if a mod just uses a few instead of a ton.

 

Now for a beginning mod it isn't super necessary, especially if your mod doesn't have too many different objects, though it definitely is always a nice bonus.

 

As to the original question, if you can't figure out what the metadata is you could just group your other 5 blocks and leave the one with the different bounding box as a separate id. Still brings the total count down to 2 from 6.

Well, how are you changing it's metadata anyway?

 

I mean, right after you do that you can call

world.markBlockNeedsUpdate ( x, y, z);

 

that'd update the block's texture. This is for when the block has been placed into the world, tho.

 

 

Also:

if( metadata == 5 )
   setBlockBounds(0.4f,0.0f,0.4f,  0.6f,0.9f,0.6f);
else 
   setBlockBounds(0f,0f,0f,  1f,1f,1f); // example

So where do you get the metadata from?

    • They were already updated, and just to double check I even did a cleanup and fresh update from that same page. I'm quite sure drivers are not the problem here. 
    • i tried downloading the drivers but it says no AMD graphics hardware has been detected    
    • Update your AMD/ATI drivers - get the drivers from their website - do not update via system  
    • As the title says i keep on crashing on forge 1.20.1 even without any mods downloaded, i have the latest drivers (nvidia) and vanilla minecraft works perfectly fine for me logs: https://pastebin.com/5UR01yG9
    • Hello everyone, I'm making this post to seek help for my modded block, It's a special block called FrozenBlock supposed to take the place of an old block, then after a set amount of ticks, it's supposed to revert its Block State, Entity, data... to the old block like this :  The problem I have is that the system breaks when handling multi blocks (I tried some fix but none of them worked) :  The bug I have identified is that the function "setOldBlockFields" in the item's "setFrozenBlock" function gets called once for the 1st block of multiblock getting frozen (as it should), but gets called a second time BEFORE creating the first FrozenBlock with the data of the 1st block, hence giving the same data to the two FrozenBlock :   Old Block Fields set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=head] BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@73681674 BlockEntityData : id:"minecraft:bed",x:3,y:-60,z:-6} Old Block Fields set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} Frozen Block Entity set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockPos{x=3, y=-60, z=-6} BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} Frozen Block Entity set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockPos{x=2, y=-60, z=-6} BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} here is the code inside my custom "freeze" item :    @Override     public @NotNull InteractionResult useOn(@NotNull UseOnContext pContext) {         if (!pContext.getLevel().isClientSide() && pContext.getHand() == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND) {             BlockPos blockPos = pContext.getClickedPos();             BlockPos secondBlockPos = getMultiblockPos(blockPos, pContext.getLevel().getBlockState(blockPos));             if (secondBlockPos != null) {                 createFrozenBlock(pContext, secondBlockPos);             }             createFrozenBlock(pContext, blockPos);             return InteractionResult.SUCCESS;         }         return super.useOn(pContext);     }     public static void createFrozenBlock(UseOnContext pContext, BlockPos blockPos) {         BlockState oldState = pContext.getLevel().getBlockState(blockPos);         BlockEntity oldBlockEntity = oldState.hasBlockEntity() ? pContext.getLevel().getBlockEntity(blockPos) : null;         CompoundTag oldBlockEntityData = oldState.hasBlockEntity() ? oldBlockEntity.serializeNBT() : null;         if (oldBlockEntity != null) {             pContext.getLevel().removeBlockEntity(blockPos);         }         BlockState FrozenBlock = setFrozenBlock(oldState, oldBlockEntity, oldBlockEntityData);         pContext.getLevel().setBlockAndUpdate(blockPos, FrozenBlock);     }     public static BlockState setFrozenBlock(BlockState blockState, @Nullable BlockEntity blockEntity, @Nullable CompoundTag blockEntityData) {         BlockState FrozenBlock = BlockRegister.FROZEN_BLOCK.get().defaultBlockState();         ((FrozenBlock) FrozenBlock.getBlock()).setOldBlockFields(blockState, blockEntity, blockEntityData);         return FrozenBlock;     }
