i have had the same problem before, the only crash report is that java has ran out of heap space

it only crashes when trying to load a world, and it only crashes with this block

if i remove the getTextureFromSide(int side) method it works, should i used getBlockTextureFromSideAndMetadata(int side, int meta)

 

the code i have used is as follows

}

}

and for the block class

If that's your entire code, you seem to be missing a lot of things required to code a forge mod.

 

It looks like you aren't even using Forge. Are you wanting to use Forge?

Use the getTextureFromSideAndMetadata

Use the getTextureFromSideAndMetadata

thanks
