Metadata Blocks

[Asweez]

Ok so I have a metadata block that works fine. But whenever I take the block out of the creative inventory and place it down, it just puts the block with metadata 0 there. But if I use setback, it works fine? What am I doing wrong?

 

Block with metadata

You need a custom ItemBlock for metadata blocks.

Do you know a tutorial for that?
