[1.9] Register Block With Variants

[saxon564]

I see that the method "registerBlock" have been deprecated in 1.9 and I have been trying to figure out how to replace it. For the life of me I cannot find anything that can be use to replace it and handle block variants. Could someone point me in the right direction to find this? I know to use GameRegistry.register for normal blocks and items (from what I can tell) but I don't see a way to do variants with it.

All blocks and items are registered in the same way.

look into Block#getSubBlocks & blockstates/metadata, register using GameRegistry#register ..also Choonster's TestMod 3 is an amazing resource for learning 1.9+ stuff (I believe he has updated to 1.9.4 now)

I have.

 

There's a branch for each Minecraft version since 1.8 (excluding 1.8.8, which was quickly replaced by 1.8.9); though only the latest version is actively developed.
