Posted November 7, 20159 yr Hi, I dont know why but GameRegistry.findBlock always gives null. You can test this with: System.out.println(GameRegistry.findBlock("minecraft", "stone")); This will say null, no matter what! I wanted to get a block form another mod, but yeah.... BUT, there is a workaround since .findItem does work. Block.getItemFromBlock(GameRegistry.findItem("minecraft", "stone")); Might worth looking into it! Thanks!
November 8, 20159 yr It works just fine, when and where are you using it? I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated. Consider supporting the team on Patreon
November 8, 20159 yr Author I use it in canPlaceBlockAt(). I check wether that block is there above my block. if(block == GameRegistry.findBlock("AmnesiaDecorations", "Chain")) This returns null, not just here! The modid IS matching and the block registered name is the same too! In 1.7.10 its worked fine.
November 8, 20159 yr Check for .equals The equals operand checks for the same instance, or location in memory. The equals function is something that can, and I'm pretty sure is, overriden in the block class, to handle these types of scenarios.
