Experiment with a custom book since some of the Clay Form recipes aren't intuitive enough. I can't get the book to open though.

Spoiler is being stupid so here is my current code

 

package com.kitsu.medievalcraft.item;

 

import com.kitsu.medievalcraft.CustomTab;

 

import net.minecraft.command.ICommandSender;

import net.minecraft.entity.Entity;

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;

import net.minecraft.init.Items;

import net.minecraft.item.Item;

import net.minecraft.item.ItemEditableBook;

import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;

import net.minecraft.nbt.NBTTagCompound;

import net.minecraft.nbt.NBTTagList;

import net.minecraft.nbt.NBTTagString;

import net.minecraft.world.World;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.GameRegistry;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.LanguageRegistry;

 

public class ItemClayFormBook extends ItemEditableBook {

private String name = "clayFormBook";

 

public ItemClayFormBook()

{

super();

setCreativeTab(CustomTab.MedievalCraftTab);

this.setUnlocalizedName(name);

LanguageRegistry.addName(this, name);

this.setTextureName(name);

this.setMaxStackSize(1);

 

GameRegistry.registerItem(this, name);

}

 

 

 

private NBTTagList putTableOfContents(NBTTagList bookTagList) {

      // Create NBT data and add to the book

      NBTTagCompound tag = new NBTTagCompound();

     

      NBTTagList bookPages = new NBTTagList();

     

      bookTagList.appendTag(new NBTTagString("Test Book"));

 

return bookTagList;

}

 

@Override

public void onUpdate(ItemStack itemStack, World world, Entity entity, int unknownInt, boolean unknownBool)

{

NBTTagList bookTagList = new NBTTagList();

 

bookTagList = putTableOfContents(bookTagList);

      itemStack.setTagInfo("pages", bookTagList);

      itemStack.setTagInfo("author", new NBTTagString("Kitsu"));

      itemStack.setTagInfo("title", new NBTTagString("Test Book"));

 

}

}
