Hi, I'm trying to add some extra wool into the game. I want to set the ItemBlock and Block's name based on what color it is (e.g. Black Wool instead of just Wool). The only way I can think of doing this is to have different unlocalized names for each color, but this seems quite inefficient. Is there a better way I can do this?

Thanks!

Thanks for your help, but I I've done something wrong. My items are now named "Unnamed" with the following code in my ItemBlock class:

@Override
    public String getItemStackDisplayName(ItemStack itemStack)
    {
        return itemStack.getDisplayName().replace("@", StatCollector.translateToLocal("pandm.color" + itemStack.getItemDamage()));
    }

This is my lang file:

 

 

tile.pandm:BlockModWool.name=Special @ Wool

pandm.color.0=Black
pandm.color.1=Blue
pandm.color.2=Brown
pandm.color.3=Cyan
pandm.color.4=Grey
pandm.color.5=Green
pandm.color.6=Light Blue
pandm.color.7=Lime
pandm.color.8=Magenta
pandm.color.9=Orange
pandm.color.10=Pink
pandm.color.11=Purple
pandm.color.12=Red
pandm.color.13=Silver
pandm.color.14=White
pandm.color.15=Yellow

I think you have all missed something very simple,

 

when you register your blocks you you specify a item class to associate with it for itemstacks (the second param)

GameRegistry.registerBlock(woolslab1, MetaItem.class, "woolslab1");

 

here is my meta item class

 

public class MetaItem extends ItemBlockWithMetadata{

public MetaItem(Block blk) {
	super(blk,blk);
}

@Override
public String getUnlocalizedName(ItemStack stack) {
	return getUnlocalizedName()+stack.getItemDamage();
}
}

 

then add the names to the lang file and its done

You could also call translate more than once.

private String[] names={"color.black","color.white", /*...*/};

translate("wool.name") + translate(names [item.getItemDamage ()]);

Which is basically what I said, but not limited to the english language. Other languages might have the color behind the "Wool", who knows.

 

Touche.
