Greetings, 

 

I am having some issues getting as much as a basic block working,- so I just need someone to point me in the right direction. 

 

I register the block itself using the following:

 

Main Mod File:

Spoiler

@SubscribeEvent
    public static void registerBlocks(RegistryEvent.Register<Block> event) 
    {
        ModBlocks.init();
        
        for(Block block : ModBlocks.ModOres)
        {
            event.getRegistry().register(block);
        }
          
    }

ModBlocks:

Spoiler

public final class ModBlocks 
{
    public static List<Block> ModOres = new ArrayList<Block>();
    
    public static Block silverOre;
    
    public static void addBlocks()
    {
        ModOres.add(silverOre);
    }
    
    public static void init() 
    {        
        silverOre = new BasicOre("silverOre", Material.ROCK, tabExtremityOres, 4f, 0f, "pickaxe", 0);
        
        addBlocks();
    }
}

BasicOre:

Spoiler

public class BasicOre extends BlockBase
{
    public BasicOre(String name, Material mat, CreativeTabs creativeTab, float hardness, float resistance, String tool, int harvest)
    {
        super(name, mat, creativeTab, hardness, resistance, tool, harvest);
    }
}

 

ModItems:

Spoiler

public final class ModItems 
{
    public static List<Item> ModItems = new ArrayList<Item>();
    
    public static Item itemSilverOre;
    
    public static void addItems()
    {
        ModItems.add(itemSilverOre);
    }
    
    public static void init() 
    {                
        itemSilverOre = new BasicOreItem("itemSilverOre", ModBlocks.tabExtremityOres, 64);
        
        addItems();
    }
}

BasicOreItem:

Spoiler

public class BasicOreItem extends Item
{
    public BasicOreItem(String name, CreativeTabs tab)
    {
        this(name, tab, 64);
    }
    
    public BasicOreItem(String name, CreativeTabs tab, int maxSize)
    {
        setUnlocalizedName(name);
        setRegistryName(name);
        setCreativeTab(tab);
        setMaxStackSize(maxSize);
    }
}

 

 

I know this won't work as the item has no connection the the block itself ever in the code, how do I do that the proper way?

Also the item shows up just like a screenshot I used for a earlier problem. (It's for an item, but it has the exact same look but with different text) 

 

I've tried to understand the tutorials & documentation but I struggle with it so I bet the solution is the easiest thing ever. 

Thank you for reading.

 

Oh and heres the JSON file at assets/ppextreme/blockstates/silverore.json:

Spoiler

{
    "forge_marker": 1,
    "defaults": {
        "textures": {
            "all": "ppextreme:blocks/ore/silverore"
        },
        "model": "cube_all",
        "uvlock": true
    },
    "variants": {
        "normal": [{

        }]
    }
}

 

You need to use a class that extends ItemBlock for the Item form of a Block.

 

Where are you registering your item models? There should be some errors in the FML log telling you why the models aren't working, please post this using  Gist or Pastebin.

Look through the vanilla Minecraft classes, especially the ore blocks. I think you'll see them extending a vanilla BlockOre class, so you don't need to reinvent it.

So I changed things up so my class extends ItemBlock, which when I think about it was a obvious fix, this required a logical parameter "Block". 

I can now place my block around using my itemBlock for it, thank you

 

However now I need to fixed the Model rendering for it when it's held. 

 

Main Mod File:

Spoiler

@SubscribeEvent
    public static void modelRegistryEvent(ModelRegistryEvent event)
    {
        for(Item item : ModItems.ModItems)
        {
            ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation(item, 0, new ModelResourceLocation(item.getRegistryName(), "inventory"));
        }

    }

ModItems:

Spoiler

public final class ModItems 
{
    public static List<Item> ModItems = new ArrayList<Item>();
    
    public static Item itemSilverOre;
    
    public static void addItems()
    {
        ModItems.add(itemSilverOre);
    }
    
    public static void init() 
    {            
        itemSilverOre = new BasicOreItem("itemSilverOre", ModBlocks.tabExtremityOres, 64, ModBlocks.silverOre); // <-- This needs to be cleaned up after changing to ItemBlock I am aware of that
        
        addItems();
    }
}
 

BasicOreItem:

Spoiler

public class BasicOreItem extends ItemBlock
{
    
    public BasicOreItem(String name, CreativeTabs tab, int i, Block block) 
    {
        super(block);
        this.setRegistryName("ppextreme", name);
        this.setUnlocalizedName(name);
        // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub    (Yes this needs cleaning aswell)
    }
    

}

Thank you.. I thought I had looked trough the log properly but I somehow missed the most important line, it now works.
