[1.9.4][Solved] Custom Bookshelf particle help

[TheFutureMarine90]

Hello, this is my first time posting on the forums so I hope you'll forgive me if my question is kind of vague.

 

Anyway, I am having some trouble getting my custom bookshelves to give off particles when they are in range of an enchantment table if anyone can help that would be great.

You will need to do the particle effects yourself, as the enchantment table checks for block == Blocks.bookshelf explicitly.

Ah thank you Draco I understand

For anyone else wondering what just happened: Bookshelves do not give off particles. Enchanting tables do (in the presence of shelves). The table's particles just happen to look like they're coming from the shelves because they spawn near shelves and arc toward the table.

 

However, if you design your own block to mimic a shelf, then I suppose you could give it particles of its own to arc toward nearby enchant tables.

I "fixed" it by making my own enchanting table that does the same as the vanilla 1 with only 1 difference: i let it check instanceof BlockBookshelf.

I also removed the enchanting table from the crafting recipes and created a new recipe for my enchanting table.
