Creating a Creative Tab (Minecraft 1.9)

[Quizer9O8]

Hi,

 

I'm currently in the making of a mod and I want to create a own Creative Tab, so I went looking for tutorials how to do so.

Sadly these tutorials were outdated so can someone of you be so kind to send me an example so I can Implement it in my mod?

The 1.8 tutorials should work in 1.9

 

But here, I use this:

 

TAB = new CreativeTabs(MOD_ID + ":" + TAB_NAME)
{
@Override
public Item getTabIconItem()
{
	return TAB_ICON;
}
};

 

in FMLPreInitializationEvent, before initializing anything else.

Use the one-argument constructor of

CreativeTabs

instead of the two-argument one and it will automatically use the next free ID for you.

Oh, right. I was going to use that but an error occured because CreativeTabs is abstract, didn't notice and changed the constructor. I must have forgotten to change it back when I realised it was abstract.

I have something like this:

 

Loading class

public class ModCreativeTabs {

public static CreativeTabs tetraTab;

public static void load(){

	tetraTab = new TetraCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.getNextID());
}
}

 

The Class

public class TetraCreativeTab extends CreativeTabs {

public TetraCreativeTab(int id) {
	super("tetracraft");
	//this.setBackgroundImageName("item_search.png");
}

@Override
public Item getTabIconItem() {
	return ModItems.triaxIngot;
}

/**
 * Determines if the search bar should be shown for this tab.
 *
 * @return True to show the bar
 */
/*@Override
public boolean hasSearchBar() {
	return getTabIndex() == this.getTabIndex();
}*/

}

 

Main Mod Class

	@EventHandler
public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event){
	ModCreativeTabs.load();
.....
}

Is there also a code that will find all the items in my mod without having them being added to the code?

Not easily.
