Hi,

 

How can I detect that minecraft:stone:5 is andesite? I'm not able to do that, even with Block.getBlockFromName() or Block.REGISTRY...

 

My mod is failing on this, on metadata blocks, and I'm not getting the way that this should be done :\

 

Am I forgetting something?

 

Thanks,

João Fernandes

have you try to do something like this?

 

block.getDefaultState().withProperty(property, value)

 

with the property BlockStone.VARIANT , and the value = Integer.valueOf(5)

 

 

I have a XML file which can be filled by block's name, but for some blocks (basically all the blocks with metada), it fails to convert to the block...

 

Imagine this:

 

<registry_name>minecraft:stone:5</registry_name>

<registry_name>immersiveengineering:ore:1</registry_name>

 

And in the code, I need to convert the first one to Andesite and the second one to Bauxite Ore...

 

If I shouldn't be using metadata, how can I have a proper XML element to deal with this situations?

Thanks for the answr diesieben07! So, according to the offical wiki, for andesite, minecraft:stone{variant=5} is correct, right? But it returns null when I try to getBlockFromName...
