[1.7.10] TileEntity & Custom Biome

[ExtendedHorizons]

Im working on a mod and I recently got all the renders in but when I add them to basic world gen I get this error:

http://pastebin.com/KLSMU38T . I also only want them spawning in caves and not in groups. This is what I get with the code I have now: http://imgur.com/kVGX0SF. I also only want them to spawn in a specific biome. Could you guys help please?

First one:

GameRegistry.registerTileEntity

Im sorry but im a nub. What class? I tried the tile entity and the main.

It's like registering a block.  Except instead of a block, its a TE.

[ExtendedHorizons]

Still didnt tell me the class -.-

[Jacky2611]

just google it. There are tons of tuts out there.

 

	GameRegistry.registerTileEntity(ADasdhakjsdhTileEntity.class, "tileEntityADasdhakjsdh");

In your preInit.

Now can anyone help me with biome/cave gen?

[Jacky2611]

YES! A "thank you"!

 

Please show us your source code. Are you on github?

Setting Github up right now

Here is a tutorial I wrote for myself half a year ago. Maybe its helpful.

Scrol down to Github.

 

 

 

SETUP WITH CHILDMOD

 

 

 

Create 2 subfolders in your modding folder, one for the main-mod and another one for the submod/childmod.

 

Now extract the forge source inside the main folder and create a new file  "settings.gradle", which only contains(in case you created 2 submods):

 

includeFlat 'FolderName_of_SubMod_1','FolderName_of_SubMod_2'

 

Copy the build.gradle file from your Mainfolder to all submodfolders.

 

Your file structure should look like this:

 

/MODDING

/MyAwesomeCore

everything from inside the forge folder

-settings.gradle

-build.gradle

/MyAwesomeSubmod

-build.gradle

/(MyAwesomeSubmod2)

-build.gradle

 

 

Only thing left to do is to modify the build.gradle files.

Here are some example files from me:

 

Main build.gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        maven {
            name = "forge"
            url = "http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven"
        }
        maven {
            name = "sonatype"
            url = "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/"
        }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'net.minecraftforge.gradle:ForgeGradle:1.2-SNAPSHOT'
    }
}

allprojects {
    apply plugin: 'forge'
    minecraft{version = "1.7.2-10.12.2.1121"}
    version = "1.0"
    archivesBaseName = project.projectDir.name
}


processResources
{
    // this will ensure that this task is redone when the versions change.
    inputs.property "version", project.version
    inputs.property "mcversion", project.minecraft.version

    // replace stuff in mcmod.info, nothing else
    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        include 'mcmod.info'
                
        // replace version and mcversion
        expand 'version':project.version, 'mcversion':project.minecraft.version
    }
        
    // copy everything else, thats not the mcmod.info
    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        exclude 'mcmod.info'
    }
}

 

And Childmod build.gradle:

 

version = "1.0"

dependencies {

compile rootProject
}

processResources
{
    // this will ensure that this task is redone when the versions change.
    inputs.property "version", project.version
    inputs.property "mcversion", project.minecraft.version

    // replace stuff in mcmod.info, nothing else
    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        include 'mcmod.info'
                
        // replace version and mcversion
        expand 'version':project.version, 'mcversion':project.minecraft.version
    }
        
    // copy everything else, thats not the mcmod.info
    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        exclude 'mcmod.info'
    }
}

 

Ok, now open up a terminal and navigate to the Mainmod Folder.

 

On Windows run:

 

gradlew.bat setupDecompWorkspace
gradlew.bat eclipse

 

On Mac/linux run:

 

./gradlew setupDecompWorkspace
./gradlew eclipse

 

To get this working in eclipse you have to click at "File/Import/General/Existing Project Into Workspace/next". For the rootfolder choose the "MODDING" folder, check both projects and import them.

 

Select the Core/Mainmod Project and add a new "Java Application/run configuration". Set the Main Class to "GradleStart"(starts Client) or "GradleStartServer"(starts Server) and add the standard Arguments.

 

You can start it if you want now, but it will only load the the Main mod. To load the other mods Switch to "Classpath", select "User Entries" and click the "Add Projects" Button.

Choose the submod(s) you want to add, uncheck everything and press the ok Button.

 

Perfect! You now can Test all your mods at the same time. But what if you want to use Items from your Mainmod in your Submod?

 

To do this you have to right click the Submod project --> Properties --> Java Build Path --> Projects where you can choose the Project from where you want the Items/Blocks.

 

 

 

 

GITHUB

 

Install git and the github plugin for eclipse.(called egit?)

 

Create a new github rep in your browser(with readme)

 

in Eclipse create a new forge project. Delete everything expect the .project file and the build.gradle. (also delete hiddden files)Create a  src/main packet and a .gitignore file

 

modify .gitignore to look like this:

 

*

!/src
!/build.gradle
!/eula.txt
!/.gitignore
!/gradlew
!/gradlew.bat
!/gradle

.DS_Store

 

Commit and push your project to your rep. Delete everything on your hdd. Then download it again and remove it from eclipse, but this time keep the files on your hdd and install forge into it.

Reimport it as general project.

(Should you already have a project copy the src folder over.)

Could you just tell me the code that i need to add a specific block to only caves and in only a specific biome?

[Jacky2611]

We need your code...

 

If we assume that you use an class based on IWorldGenerator I would check the biome and if one of the neighbor blocks=Blocks.air to make your block only spawn in the walls of caves and dungeons.
