ive been trying to create a custom block by following a tutorial written for modloader ( http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1483366-universal-subarakis-one-stop-custom-block-tutorial-make-it-with-techne/ ) but i think there is something i am missing. The problem i am having is converting the normal block to the one rendered by the tile entity.

 

my code:

 

Block:https://github.com/Firestarme/Fires_Cars/blob/Development/common/firestarme/fires_cars/common/BlockMachine.java

 

Render:https://github.com/Firestarme/Fires_Cars/blob/Development/common/firestarme/fires_cars/common/RenderMachine.java

 

ItemBlock:https://github.com/Firestarme/Fires_Cars/blob/Development/common/firestarme/fires_cars/common/ItemBlockMachine.java

 

TileEntity:https://github.com/Firestarme/Fires_Cars/blob/Development/common/firestarme/fires_cars/common/TileEntityMachine.java

 

Main :https://github.com/Firestarme/Fires_Cars/blob/Development/common/firestarme/fires_cars/common/fires_carsMain.java

 

Model :https://github.com/Firestarme/Fires_Cars/blob/Development/common/firestarme/fires_cars/common/ModelDerrik.java

 

 

and what is does or doesn't? from a quick look at the block class I would say the TE is not being created. maybe:

    @Override
    public boolean hasTileEntity(int metadata) {
        return true;
    }

or even:

    @Override
    public void onBlockAdded(World par1World, int par2, int par3, int par4) {
        super.onBlockAdded(par1World, par2, par3, par4);
        par1World.setBlockTileEntity(par2, par3, par4, createTileEntity(par1World, par1World.getBlockMetadata(par2, par3, par4)));
    }
