[1.8]Item Material

[Hamster_Furtif]

Hey guys !

 

I'm working on a small mod for 1.8, and I wonder : how do you make a new Item Material ?

The 1.7 version allowed you to do this :

 

EnumHelper.addToolMaterial(Stuff, otherstuff, morestuff, somestuffagain)

 

What is the 1.8 equivalent ?

Well, seeing as only FML is updated for 1.8 and EnumHelper is a Forge class, my guess is...

 

Reflection.

 

Or wait for Forge.

Ho, I did not know the difference between Forge and FML...

I took a look at this. I almost understood the difference.

Thank you anyway!

Forge has been out for 1.8 for at least a few weeks.

 

Look at the 1.8 branch on the MinecraftForge GitHub or the 1.8 link in the Files page.

Well i looked at files.minecraftforge.net which did not have a1.8 branch. Looking at the GitHub was not an obvious place to look

[shieldbug1]

files.minecraftforge.net definitely has a 1.8 branch

 

The branches are listed like this:

 

Branches:

Oh you're right it is.

 

But it's apparently too good to be listed in the "list of all versions" drop down.

 

 

Instead you have to scroll the page, past the recommended listing for half a dozen versions to link that takes you to a separate page.  Which I might add, is below the bottom of my browser window.
