When making a new thread please state what version you are working with eg [1.7.10] or [1.8], this is make it easier for people to answer your questions accurately. This particular question cannot be answered 100% right unless we know what version you are using.

Just realized you can't have an eight and a bracket beside each other without it turning into an emoji.

Sure you can: [nobbc]8)[/nobbc].

 

[nobcc][nobbc][/nobbc][/nobbc]

works like magic ;)

I've looked at TGG's minecraft by example but I still can't figure out how to texture something. I'm probably just missing something crucial.

 

EDIT:nevermind I found it, but do you actually need to make a separate model for each block? or can you re-use them?

I've put everything the same way that TGG did it but it's still not working. I've got the variants file in a blockstate folder

 

 

{
    "variants": {
        "normal": { "model": "Ancients:FloorBlock_Model" }
    }
}

 

 

And I've got the model file under assets.Ancients.models.block:

 

 

{
    "parent": "block/cube",
    "textures": {
        "down": "Ancients:blocks/InvincibleBlock",
        "up": "Ancients:blocks/InvincibleBlock",
        "north": "Ancients:blocks/InvincibleBlock",
        "east": "Ancients:blocks/InvincibleBlock",
        "south": "Ancients:blocks/InvincibleBlock",
        "west": "Ancients:blocks/InvincibleBlock",
        "particle": "Ancients:blocks/InvincibleBlock"
    }
}

 

 

My texture name is InvincibleBlock.png

 

I tend to overlook a lot of errors, so I'm probably just missing it aswell. Thanks in advance

Names of files are important too.

 

Name of block points at EXACLY same name in blockstates folder. Blockstate has variants that points out to model/s which then use textures.

 

MODID has to be LOWERCASE, "ancients".

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

If Ernio's excellent advice doesn't work, post your error log... :)

I fixed some location errors (s's missing, capitals) and I fixed the error saying 

[12:52:05] [Client thread/ERROR] [FML]: Model definition for location ancients:InvincibleBlock#normal not found

but I still have the error saying

[12:52:05] [Client thread/ERROR] [FML]: Model definition for location ancients:InvincibleBlock#inventory not found

. How do I fix this?

 

new Model definition.json (InvincibleBlock.json):

{
    "variants": {
        "normal": { "model": "ancients:InvincibleBlock_Model"}
        "inventory": { "model": "ancients:InvincibleBlock_Model"}
    }
}

Ok what would I put in this file?

The MBE01, MBE03, and MBE11 MinecraftByExample project literally shows you exactly what to do for blocks, items, blocks with variants, items with variants.  You just need to spend a bit of time understanding what it does and how it works.

      Player Motion [Potential mappings/project issue][1.20]

      By Saday · Posted

      It wasnt mappings issue, I was reading fabric and not forge. Fabric has PlayerEntity while forge has Player. Through a mixin I was able to change the player's velocity so that there is a sort of slow-motion type movement. Only issue is that jumping seems to be handled separately. Changing that velocity only makes the jump lower, not slower. Unsure how to increase the duration in which a jump happens.   @Mixin(LivingEntity.class) public abstract class ExampleMixin extends Entity { public ExampleMixin(EntityType<?> type, World world) { super(type, world); } @Inject(method = "tickMovement", at = @At("HEAD")) private void onTickMovement(CallbackInfo ci) { // Access the player entity LivingEntity entity = (LivingEntity)(Object)this; // Modify player's acceleration by applying a force in the opposite direction double slowdownFactor = 0.75; // Adjust as needed entity.setVelocity(entity.getVelocity().multiply(1, slowdownFactor, 1)); } }

      forge not recognizing

      By Paint_Ninja · Posted

      You need to run build at least once before running the game for the first time in a dev environment. Make sure stuff's working *before* you start making changes to the mdk template

      [1.19.2] Rotating a block entity bone

      By Daniel Grapes · Posted

      Greetings, people of the forge forums: I come to you in a time of need. While creating my silly block entity that is (in theory) supposed to point to a position within world space I've started to question how to actually implement it.   How would I get a tile entity element (or bone) to change its pitch/yaw/roll? While I do have prior experience with programming, I have no actual experience with the forge API except the things listed in its docs. Please correct me if I am in any way wrong.

      [1.19-1.20] Help with depthTest.

      By S4TURN · Posted

      Making my own screen by extending from net.minecraft.client.gui.screens.Screen and override render method. I am trying to make green square only to be visible when intersecting with red square. This is what I got so far: @Override public void render(PoseStack poseStack, int mx, int my, float partialTick) {     RenderSystem.enableDepthTest(); // Red square     GuiComponent.fill(pPoseStack, 32, 32, 64, 64, 0xFFFF0000);     RenderSystem.depthFunc(GlConst.GL_LEQUAL); // Green square     GuiComponent.fill(pPoseStack, mx-16, my-16, mx+16, my+16, 0xFF00FF00); } Thank you in advance.
