[1.7.10] SOLVED Get display name of a placed block?

[Muramasa]

I am quite new to forge and I can't seem to figure out how to get the display name for a block when it's placed in the world.

 

My current code:

    @SubscribeEvent
    public void onBlockHighlight(DrawBlockHighlightEvent event){
        EntityPlayer p = event.player;
        World w = p.worldObj;
        String name = w.getBlock(event.target.blockX, event.target.blockY, event.target.blockZ).getUnlocalizedName();
    }

 

I am currently getting the unlocalized name, but is there some way to get the block display name from this? maybe the lang files?

 

Thanks.

Ah thanks very much for that!

 

For anybody that wants the same thing, I had to use getLocalizedName().

There are a few exceptions with Minecraft blocks, like blocks and flower pots. Those blocks are places by a different Item then the ItemBlock corresponding to the Block. To account for this, you have to do things a little bit different.

 

You need to get an ItemStack instance using

Block#getPickBlock(...)

. Then you can get the display name using

ItemStack#getDisplayName()

.
