[1.8][Solved]Loading Variants of the same block

WitherDoggie · May 20, 2016

I'm trying to create a wooden wall block that is a pane type block. I've written the code for the pane block and it works fine. The issue is, I want to create a wall block type for each type of wood in the game without coding each type individually. I have written a wood type class to store the wood types I want to use. How can I get all of the types to load in game using only one registry entry.

I do plan on adding wood blocks to my mod. So yes I'd like to be able to support them.

How complicated would it be if I didn't have mod wood support.

Could you have multiple blocks with 16 blockstates each to support them all?

I would do this, but I want just one block with 6 different variants.

So I've written the code for the wall (looked at the BlockPlanks class for help) and the game crashes every time I try to load the game.

I've redone the WoodWall class. The game doesn't load if I try to make the WoodWall class extend BlockPane, but it does load if I just extend WoodWall from Block. When I extend the class from the Block class, 5 of the 6 blocks show up as type birch which is not what I want.

Originally I was going to use a switch statement, but decided against it. The only thing left I can't figure out is why I can't make this a PaneBlock.

Why?

I don't know. I wasn't really thinking about what I was doing at the time.

The only thing left I can't figure out is why I can't make this a PaneBlock.

What's stopping you? (Hint: "it crashes" is not an answer to this question).

Nothing is stopping me. I just have to figure out why exactly the game is crashing.

So your answer was "it's crashing" again.

I got the blocks working. One last question though. Do I have to make a .json model file for each variant of the block or do I need just one .json file (it'll be more than 1 because of all the direction .jsons needed for a pane block)

WitherDoggie · May 22, 2016

If I didn't want 1 blockstate json, would I need 12 model jsons for each variant plus a blockstate json for each variant?

WitherDoggie · May 22, 2016

I looked through the vanilla blockstates and models for the different stained glass panes. Each variant of the pane has it's own blockstate and each has 12 model jsons. I tried to do this for my panes as well and the models won't load. The inventory models load, but when placed in the world the block models don't load.

The blockstate.json is to lead to the different model variants of the block. The model.json is how it looks different from the other variants.

WitherDoggie · May 22, 2016

I did as you said to do and replaced ModelBakery.registerItemVariants and ItemModelMesher#register with ModelLoader.setCustomResourceLocation and the game crashes.

Fixed client proxy, but the models still won't load

There is no error in the log about anything called wood wall.

This is why I'm confused. I can't figure it out.

Here is what shows up in game.

Changed client proxy to select a variant, but nothing changed. The models still show up the same as before.

If I try to call registerBlocks from multiple classes, the game crashes with this error. http://pastebin.com/1Db2UUwm

WitherDoggie · May 23, 2016

I must have mis-interpreted what you meant. When you said,

And why is registerBlocks called from the ClientProxy only?

I though you meant call if from the CommonProxy as well.

WitherDoggie · May 23, 2016

I just noticed, you are not specifying any variant for your item model location. This means it will use "normal".

How do I specify a variant? Also, what class could I look in for examples of PaneBlocks with variants?

WitherDoggie · May 23, 2016

I've written this model loading code to load my variants, but the blocks still show up as un-textured blocks. The models don't load either. The log is saying that it can't find the blockstate files, but I checked and they are in the blockstate folder. What am I doing wrong?
