I am having trouble generating my ore in 1.8. I put in a line of code that tells me in the console where the ore is being generated but when i go to that location it's not there. I have gone over the code a few times and found an error here and there but they fixed other small issues and i still haven't been able to fix this issue. Could someone please take a look at the code below. Thanks!

	{
	case -1:
		GenerateNether(world, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16, random);

	case 0:

	}
}

{
	for(int i = 0; i < SpawnChance; i++)
	{
		int defaultChunkSize = 16;

		int Xpos = posX + random.nextInt(defaultChunkSize);
		int Ypos = minY + random.nextInt(maxY - minY);
		int Zpos = posZ + random.nextInt(defaultChunkSize);

		IBlockState state = block.getDefaultState();
		BlockPos blockPos = new BlockPos(Xpos, Ypos, Zpos);

		new WorldGenMinable(state, maxVein).generate(world, random, blockPos); 
		System.out.println("Ore Generated: " + blockPos);
	}
}

private void GenerateEnd(World world, int i, int j, Random random) 
{

}

private void GenerateOverworld(World world, int i, int j, Random random) 
{
	addOre(MainRegistry.copperOre, Blocks.stone, random, world, i, j, 15, 100, 4, 8, 40);
}

private void GenerateNether(World world, int i, int j, Random random)

}

}

Hmmm, the block comes up in the creative tab so i think it's registering properly.

 

This is the world gen class file.

	registerWorldGen(new WorldOreGen(),1);
}

}
}

I haven't used Git before. Are you able to please explain to me on what i need to do or link me to a video that shows me what to do?

True haha, i will reply back here once i think i have done what you have asked

So do I upload my whole mod file to Git for you to test it? Or just those class files?

I have tried uploading the files but there is none of those files you mentioned. I'm not sure if i have done it correctly, here is the link: https://github.com/Dylann6466/oreGen

 

Sorry for the late reply, i have been sick and been focusing on other stuff instead.

 

Do note that i am also getting help from someone else as well.

It is all good now. The other person determined that i had my assets folder in the wrong spot and moving that to the right location has seemed to fix the problem.

 

Thanks for offering your help though
