[1.7.10] Meta-data items?

[jordsta95]

Hey there, I am having issues with something I never really liked - meta-data.

I am trying to do items, and the only 1.7 tutorial I found on it was for blocks, so I tried to substitute in what I could to get it to work.

 

I have no errors in the code, but with what I have, only 1 item spawns. and it shows as item.null.name, not anything which I would have expected.

 

Here's the code:

And here's how it's registered:

Any pointers on what I am doing wrong.

Sorry if this is something really obvious, but I have never used meta-data before, but I felt when adding ~100 items, meta-data would be best (especially when they are all crafting components)

I'm not sure if

.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5));

  would work for meta

 

I do It like This

 

@Override
    public String getUnlocalizedName(ItemStack stack)
    {
        int i = MathHelper.clamp_int(stack.getItemDamage(), 0, textureNames.length);
        return String.format(Names.UnlocalItem.getUnlocal("ingot.%s%s"), Reference.MODID + ":", textureNames[i]);
    }

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    public IIcon getIconFromDamage(int meta) {
        int j = MathHelper.clamp_int(meta, 0, textureNames.length);
        return this.icons[j];
    }

Alright? And this will get all items to show too, or...?
