How do I set the texture for my blocks in 1.8

Posted March 1, 201510 yr

Hey I need help setting the texture for my blocks in 1.8. I know how to set them back in 1.7 but in 1.8 I think it has changed. How do I set the textures for my blocks in 1.8?

It's done via JSON files now. For each block, you need 3 (a blockstate file, a block model file, and an item model file). There are several tutorials on this, and vanilla assets can be used as an example.

Check out my mod, Realms of Chaos, here.

Can you send me a link to one of the tutorials?

1.7.10 is no longer supported by forge, you are on your own.

These are my favorites, but, yes, look at the vanilla block and item models in /assets/minecraft/blockstates and /assets/minecraft/models/block and /assets/minecraft/models/item.

(my favorite, mixed with vanilla models as examples)

Thank you. I now should now be able to create the json files. Can you now just show me how I tell forge to use them for my blocks?

How to add my mob to another mod's biome in 1.20.1.

I'm on 1.20.1 and was wondering if there was a way to add a mob I am going to make to a other mod's biome (Regions Unexplored in this case). I am trying to figure this out before I start coding the mod. Could someone point me to a good guide on this? I saw some things about biome modifier's but all the resources are either to short, unhelpful or for a different version. Thanks in advance. (i am a beginner but i have java and modding knowledge so this isn't like a "i am new and don't know anything about coding" problem btw)

Dealing with modded server issues can be a real headache been there! At least you can keep your look stress-free with a fresh low taper fade.

Cobblemon invalid player data

Hi everyone, I keep getting "invalid player data" when trying to log onto my friend's server. Log analysis says to remove Night Lights and ImmediatelyFast, but that doesn't work. Any insight is appreciated

Bad pathfinding for big mobs (1.21.1)

I've struggled with this for way too long now, so I have decided to ask for some assistance here because there is almost no information about this online.

I made a hostile mob and I built it like this:
public static final Supplier<EntityType<Bunyip>> BUNYIP = ENTITY_TYPES.register("bunyip" , () -> EntityType.Builder. of(Bunyip::new, MobCategory.MONSTER).sized(3f, 2.5f).eyeHeight(1.75f).build("bunyip"));

However, I have discovered that a BoundingBox of 3 is too big for the vanilla pathfinding to work well. In fact, anything bigger than a block will not work well. This is especially noticeable when having it chase a player in a negative X and/or negative Z direction. The mob starts spinning, walking backwards, walking diagonally, etc.

I am using the Goal system:
protected void registerGoals() { super.registerGoals(); this.goalSelector.addGoal(1, new MeleeAttackGoal(this, 1.25, true)); this.targetSelector.addGoal(2, new NearestAttackableTargetGoal<>(this, Player.class, true, true)); }

This does not seem to be a me issue as the ravager, one of the biggest vanilla mobs, also struggles with proper pathfinding. I am a bit familiar with how Minecraft's pathfinding works, but not enough to make a pathfinding system from scratch (or at least not in a reasonable amount of time). Is there any way to fix this with some tweaks or will I have to make a custom pathfinding system?
