Trying to figure out non oreDictionary recipies

[WolfAmaril]

I'm trying to use flint as part of a recipie, but I can't find the documentation on how to use an item not in the ore dictionary.

 

The current recipie I have is as follows

GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ShapelessOreRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.adaptiveIgnitorBlack), "dfi", 'd', "dyeBlack", 'f', "ItemFlint", 'i', "ingotIron"));

[WolfAmaril]

Ah, thanks.

 

I'm just starting modding, so I didn't know how to call non oreDic items in any recipie.

[WolfAmaril]

And it still breaks. I'm not missing something with how I'm using the dyes, am I?

 

GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ShapelessOreRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.adaptiveIgnitorBlack), "dfi", 'd', "dyeBlack", 'f', "Items.flint", 'i', "ingotIron"));

[WolfAmaril]

You sure about that?

and, more specifically, no quotes on what part?

[WolfAmaril]

Ah, gotcha.

This is where the whole "first time modder" bit really sucks.

 

and it still doesn't work. recipie is now

GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ShapelessOreRecipe(new ItemStack(ModItems.adaptiveIgnitorBlack), "dfi", 'd', "dyeBlack", 'f', Items.flint, 'i', "ingotIron"));

Hi

 

This is where the whole "first time modder" bit really sucks.

yes, so true.

 

Since I am still a newbie too, I don't know if I am right, but I currently use

GameRegistry.addShapelessRecipe(ItemStack, Object... args)

Where the itemStack the result is (metadata and quantity set) and the args-object is a so-called variable argument list, containing ItemStacks of ingredients (again, metadata and quantity sensitive).

 

But all this code is at least for 1.7.10 and I do absolutely know nothing about 1.8...

 

Hope this was helpful

Sincerely -pick

I was being stupid. You are using the format for a Shaped recipe, but are using ShapelessOreRecipe. That makes no sense.

 

Oh, yeah, that could be a problem.

Fixed it, thanks
