trying to figure out correct naming for bop quicksand. Block always return null.

problem area

      Block quicksand = GameRegistry.findBlock("BiomesOPlenty","quicksand");
      Block quicksand2 = GameRegistry.findBlock("BiomesOPlenty","Quicksand");
      Block sand = GameRegistry.findBlock("minecraft", "sand");

 

main.java

}

 

I don't know about the 1.7.10 version, but skimming over the 1.10.2 source code of Biomes O' Plenty, it seems quicksand is not actually a block, but a fluid registered as such with the name "sand".

 

The full source is here if you want to look over it yourself: https://github.com/Glitchfiend/BiomesOPlenty/blob/BOP-1.10.2-5.0.x/src/main/java/biomesoplenty/

 

There's also a 1.7.10 branch at that repo, but I couldn't actually find the quicksand class in that version.

1.7.10 is no longer supported on this forum, as soon as a moderator finds this thread, it will be locked.
