I have read tutorials on Dye's many times, yet i'm still having some trouble using dye in a recipe.

I aim receive a block , and input 1 piece of glass and a dye of a certain color through the recipe.

 

I am using the following code, knowing that 'Item.dyePowder,1,3' refers to Bonemeal.

ModLoader.addShapelessRecipe(new ItemStack(blockStainedGlass1, 1), new Object[] {(new ItemStack(Item.dyePowder,1 ,3)), (blockFramedGlass)});

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated, my stained glass mod is on hold until the recipe is working.

 

ModLoader.addShapelessRecipe(new ItemStack(blockStainedGlass1, 1), new Object[] {(new ItemStack(Item.dyePowder,1 ,3)), (blockFramedGlass)});

 

I believe every ingredient in a shapeless recipe has to have "new ItemStack" in front of it. So try:

ModLoader.addShapelessRecipe(new ItemStack(blockStainedGlass1, 1), new Object[] {new ItemStack(Item.dyePowder,1 ,3), new ItemStack(blockFramedGlass, 1)});

just found out i wasn't using the correct damage value to return the dye... my bad.

 

thank-you

No problem. I hope that helps.
