[1.7.10] Trees, Names and Lores, And Configurations

[Chaka15205]

So i am new to modding and i have 3 topics i dont know.

 

How do i add a custom tree to the game.

How do i change the name of items and blocks as well as the lore.

And Lastly How do i properly make a configuration.  Such as disabling a block if set to true or disabling a biome if set to true

[Chaka15205]

a) You'll need a WorldGenerator. Then place the blocks you want. You can look at the vanilla tree generators to get examples.

 

b) Make a .lang file. Then put in

tile.<unlocalizedname>.name=SomeBlock

resp.

item.<unlocalizedname>.name=SomeItem

. The unlocalized name you set with setUnlocalizedName on your Block/Item. It should include your ModId, to avoid clashes with other mods.

 

c) There's lots of tutorials for configurations. You then just store a boolean and add the Block/Biome/etc. inside an if-statement.

 

Thanks, And i messed up what i said on (question b)  I meant How do i change the color of the item/block.

[Chaka15205]

I guess i did not word that properly either.  I mean like you know how you enchant an item and the color of the name changes.  That is what I would like to know.  As well as how to add a lore.  I'm sure i got it right this time.

An example:

(Note: this class is called from an Item class, so it contains the same functions, but is not actually an item)
