Glass??

[TwinAndy]

I was looking for a tutorial on how to make glass but i cant find any any suggestions?

[Dambob]

Try looking at the default glass block.

 

net.minecraft.block.BlockGlass

[Tomalla]

Glass, like a stock glass block in Minecraft? Just follow the basic block tutorial on the Forge wiki and the actual BlockGlass.java, but there's nothing fancy really. The transparency of the block is due to the texture itself ( in comparison: the ice block uses blending and is a bit more difficult to implement ).

I did but when i change:

To:

http://paste.minecraftforge.net/view/385da035

Then there is a red line under:

new AltorGlass (763, 6)

Its not just a normal block

You change your constructor to receive four arguments instead of two, so no wonder you get the error.

 

Its not just a normal block

 

But the glass block is. You've asked for glass, you've got glass. What else do ya need then?

Oh I don't know, then I suppose 90% of the blocks in game must not be normal to you. Fine then: a glass block is not normal. But I feel like I'm missing the point

Super calls the constructor for the base class.

 

If you have extended blockGlass then Super() MUST have the same number and type of parameters as the BlockGlass() function.

can you please explain this to me

 

[Dambob]

That's basically what I've explained.

 

This is standard code. It seems like you need to learn how to program first.

 

class foo
{
       foo(int par1, int par2)
       {
        }
};

class bar extends foo
{
        bar(float par1, int p1, int p2)
       {
              super(p1, p2);
       }
};

[TheGrovesyProject101]

put this in your block file:

public boolean isOpaqueCube()
    {
        return false;
    }

and then use a transparent texture in your texture file like the one glass has

Sure:

Watch number 17 about constructors and number 49 about inheritance.

Oh and while you're at it, you should watch them ALL to learn the basics you need <3
