What forge version are you using?

What forge version are you using?

im using forge-1.7.10-10.13.2.1230

Pretty sure that gameregistry is supposed to be inside the preinit function. Try GameRegistry.registerBlock(block, "stringName") inside your init function.

I added it to the preInit and it still isnt working.

 

Heres My PreInit

 

 

 

// Block, Items, ETC...

    @Mod.EventHandler

    public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event)

    {

   

    //ModBlocks.init();

   

    GameRegistry.registerBlock(testBlock , TestBlock.name);

 

    }

 

 

second parameter should be a string.

second parameter should be a string.

it is its the string name of the block in the block file

It was in preInit, that wasn't the problem. Why did you comment out mod blocks.init? As a test try putting modid: before the name when you register the block.

ryancpexpert, yeah it is.

ryancpexpert, yeah it is.

Fixed it. I didnt check constants and the file got reset some how and there wasnt a MOD_ID set lol . Im dumb sorry.
