MODDING HELP (GENERATING METADATA BLOCKS)

[sidthesloth123]

by the title you can tell im trying to gen metadata blocks here is my gen class.

 

OreGasWorldGenerator:

package es_common.sidthesloth.main;

import java.util.Random;

import net.minecraft.world.World;
import net.minecraft.world.chunk.IChunkProvider;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.feature.WorldGenMinable;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.IWorldGenerator;

public class OreGasWorldGenerator implements IWorldGenerator {

@Override
public void generate(Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world, IChunkProvider

chunkGenerator, IChunkProvider chunkProvider) {
switch(world.provider.dimensionId) {
case -1:
generateNether();
break;
case 0:
generateSurface(world, random, chunkX*16, chunkZ*16);
break;
case 1:
generateEnd();
break;
}
}

public void generateNether() {
//we're not doing ore ore in the nether
}

public void generateSurface(World world, Random rand, int chunkX, int chunkZ) {
for (int i = 0; i < 30; i++) {
int randPosX = chunkX + rand.nextInt(16);
int randPosY = rand.nextInt(64);
int randPosZ = chunkZ + rand.nextInt(16);

(new WorldGenMinable(es_main_blocks.blockOremeta.blockID,7, 10)).generate(world, rand,
randPosX, randPosY, randPosZ);
}
}

public void generateEnd() {
//we're not going to generate in the end either
}
}

 

 

if anyone can help id be very greatful

I think there is nothing wrong with this code.. but here is the generation part of mine

 

[embed=425,349](new WorldGenMinable(ItemAndBlockHandler.BlockResources.blockID, 0, ).generate(w, rand, x, y, z);[/embed]

 

but i originally derp'd on Registering the World Generator, have you done that ?

yes i did in my @init load "GameRegistry.registerWorldGenerator(new OreGasWorldGenerator());"

[sidthesloth123]

i only get the 1 ore spawn instead of the others

well if you want, you dont need a newWorldGenMinable, you could create a new class that does the exact same but make a parameter for metadata Hope this helps!

i get what you mean just dont know how to do it but thanks very much

[MrArnoEnCo]

you wanne generate more ore's ad ones ?

[MrArnoEnCo]

this is a part out of my world gen :

 

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

int randPosX = (chunkX * 16) + rand.nextInt(16);

            int randPosY = rand.nextInt(64);

            int randPosZ = (chunkZ * 16) + rand.nextInt(16);

            int randSize = rand.nextInt(12);

//first ore                   

            (new WorldGenMinable(Dyeing.WhiteDyeOre.blockID, 3)).generate(world, rand, randPosX, randPosY, randPosZ);

// second ore with same prop

            randPosY = rand.nextInt(64);

            (new WorldGenMinable(Dyeing.OrangeDyeOre.blockID, 3)).generate(world, rand, randPosX, randPosY, randPosZ);

 

 

if you do it like this

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

int randPosX = (chunkX * 16) + rand.nextInt(16);

            int randPosY = rand.nextInt(64);

            int randPosZ = (chunkZ * 16) + rand.nextInt(16);

            int randSize = rand.nextInt(12);

 

            (new WorldGenMinable(Dyeing.OrangeDyeOre.blockID, 3)).generate(world, rand, randPosX, randPosY, randPosZ);

            (new WorldGenMinable(Dyeing.WhiteDyeOre.blockID, 3)).generate(world, rand, randPosX, randPosY, randPosZ);

// the ore will spawn in one vein together

 

 

 

[sidthesloth123]

this is my gen code now:

 

 

  Reveal hidden contents

package es_common.sidthesloth.main;

import java.util.Random;

import net.minecraft.world.World;
import net.minecraft.world.chunk.IChunkProvider;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.feature.WorldGenMinable;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.IWorldGenerator;

public class OreGasWorldGenerator implements IWorldGenerator {

@Override
public void generate(Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world, IChunkProvider

chunkGenerator, IChunkProvider chunkProvider) {
switch(world.provider.dimensionId) {
case -1:
generateNether();
break;
case 0:
generateSurface(world, random, chunkX*16, chunkZ*16);
break;
case 1:
generateEnd();
break;
}
}

public void generateNether() {
//we're not doing ore ore in the nether
}

public void generateSurface(World world, Random rand, int chunkX, int chunkZ) {

int randPosX = (chunkX * 16) + rand.nextInt(16);
    int randPosY = rand.nextInt(64);
    int randPosZ = (chunkZ * 16) + rand.nextInt(16);
    int randSize = rand.nextInt(12);
//the 18 is ment to be the blockOremeta.blockID, metadata
(new WorldGenMinable(es_main_blocks.blockOremeta.blockID, 18, 50)).generate(world, rand,
randPosX, randPosY, randPosZ);
}

public void generateEnd() {
//we're not going to generate in the end either
}
}

 

but now i cant find it in test worlds and im still not sure still how to gen meta data blocks help!!!!

[SpeakersMind]

You are doing metadata correct, but wrap the generation code in a for loop and loop it like 50 times and than it should spawn more, because as far as i can see, your code only spawns one group of ores in each chunk

 

try this one, lower the 50 in the for loop too your needs

public void generateSurface(World world, Random rand, int chunkX, int chunkZ) {
int randPosX, randPosY, randPosZ, randSize;
for(int i = 0; i < 50; i++){
randPosX = (chunkX * 16) + rand.nextInt(16);
randPosY = rand.nextInt(64);
randPosZ = (chunkZ * 16) + rand.nextInt(16);
randSize = rand.nextInt(12);
//the 18 is ment to be the blockOremeta.blockID, metadata
(new WorldGenMinable(es_main_blocks.blockOremeta.blockID, 18, 50)).generate(world, rand,
randPosX, randPosY, randPosZ);
}
}
