[1.8] Rotate block model?

[Jemmerl]

I have made a model of a 'furnace' using Opl's Model Creator and uploaded it to my mod. The model works fine, but when I try to edit the script to allow it to rotate based on where it is placed, it turns into missing texture block. It will not accept even me setting it to a parent, returns missing texture. Also, side note: The particles are missing texture too, and any changes to fix, is rejected. Any thing helps!

 

Blockstate (as of right now, unedited for rotation (no variants))

{

"variants": {

"normal": {"model": "meimet:alloy_furnace"}

}

}

 

Model (same as blockstate) If this looks like too much in a comment, say so. I will put it in a pastebin and edit the post.

What is your code for the Block class for the furnace? I'll need to see that, thanks.

 

-Will

[Jemmerl]

Is this what you are looking for? (It has many other blocks registered in it, so i cut them out. Along with the end })

 

public class meiMetBlocks {

public static Block alloy_furnace;

 

public static void init() {

alloy_furnace = new Block(Material.rock).setUnlocalizedName("alloy_furnace").setCreativeTab(MeigmaMetallou.tabMeimetMisc);

 

public static void register() {

GameRegistry.registerBlock(alloy_furnace, alloy_furnace.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5));

 

public static void registerRenders() {

registerRender(alloy_furnace);

 

[Failender]

Use spoiler/code tags PLEASE.

 

this is my blockstate. You are never defining thbe variants

 

 

{

    "variants": {

        "facing=north": {"model": "survivaloverhaul:saltcooker" },

        "facing=south": {"model": "survivaloverhaul:saltcooker" , "y" : 180 },

        "facing=west": {"model": "survivaloverhaul:saltcooker", "y": 270 },

        "facing=east": {"model": "survivaloverhaul:saltcooker" , "y": 90}

    }

}

 

 

 

And my models/block

 

 

 

{

    "parent": "block/orientable",

    "textures": {

        "up": "survivaloverhaul:blocks/salt_cooker_top",

        "down": "survivaloverhaul:blocks/salt_cooker_top",

        "north": "survivaloverhaul:blocks/salt_cooker_front",

        "south": "survivaloverhaul:blocks/salt_cooker_side",

        "west": "survivaloverhaul:blocks/salt_cooker_side",

        "east": "survivaloverhaul:blocks/salt_cooker_side"

    }

}

 

 

 

[Jemmerl]

1. Sorry about that, how do I use hiddens?

2. I tried that. It turns into a missing texture block. No clue why. I have done exactly what you just posted.

[Failender]

well you need to make your block orientable.

[Jemmerl]

Ah. Thankyou. I will ty and say if it works!

[Jemmerl]

Clarifying, would I need to remove all the script from my block class if I wanted to create a separate class for this one block. The way I have been setting up, all my blocks have been in one class.

[Failender]

You would need a separate class for that. You will need taht anyway if ur furnace should cook anything

[Jemmerl]

Oh, okay. It is going to have a custom gui too, so i guess a separate class would be useful! I have the feeling that it is simply the model creator that I used that is giving me heck with the texture. What do you use?

[Failender]

wat?

[Jemmerl]

My block is using a custom model made with Opl's model maker. I am worried that that itself, how it formatted the model in the script, might be making some texture issues for me. Also, in my attempt is move everything to one class- I have deleted the block. Trying to fix it right now.

[Failender]

Well I know nothing about that, sorry

[Jemmerl]

Okay, I have atleast recreated the block entirely inside its own class- it appears in game... but guess what, still no texture. So, here is my new script:

(I have the funny feeling I have screwed something up miserably.)

	this.setDefaultState(blockState.getBaseState().withProperty(FACING, EnumFacing.NORTH));
}

@Override

	if(facing.getAxis()==EnumFacing.Axis.Y) {

	}

	return getDefaultState().withProperty(FACING, facing);
}

@Override

	return ((EnumFacing) state.getValue(FACING)).getIndex();
}

	Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher().register(item, 0, new ModelResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + ":" + item.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5), "inventory"));
}

}

I dont know which tutorial you watched for modding. But this is truely NOT the way.

Please watch a basic tutorial for setting up your mod and registering blocks and then come back.

[Jemmerl]

I did. It recommended putting everything in one class... Therefore, the rest of my mod was built that way. It offered no explanation of why to do what it said, nor can I find any.

[Failender]

The class of your block should be for your block only.

The registration of renderer should be in the clientproxy.

The registration of the block itself should be in your main mod class or a class that collects all your blocks sorted

There is no reason to keep a public static Block alloy_furnace in your class

Look up naming conventions for java, your class name is malformed
