[Redfoxhint]

Hi, I would like to know if its possible to add a lore on a block with different types. Basically I want to add a lore on all the ores in my mod but i dont know how to specify which block to put the specific lore. (Kinda hard to explain). Please help!!

Create your own class that extends

ItemBlock

and overrides

Item#addInformation

. This method has an

ItemStack

argument, which has a metadata value.

 

Register your

Block

using

GameRegistry#registerBlock(Block, Class<? extends ItemBlock>, String)

instead of

GameRegistry#registerBlock(Block, String)

.

I made the ItemBlock class already but how do actaully implement the addInformation method in? (Sorry inexperienced here...)

You override the method...

Override the method and add a

String

to the

List

for each tooltip line. You should add the lines to your lang files and use

StatCollector.translateToLocal

to translate them to the client's language.
