So after a long break off modding, I decided to remake my old mod from 1.11.2. So far, it's been going well except that I can't seem to figure out how to make an ItemSlab for my slab. Nor can I even begin to implement a way to register it using my registry handler. If anyone has some ideas on how I can do this, please explain.

 

My Registry Handler

package emerald.emeraldsores.Util.Handlers;

import emerald.emeraldsores.Init.ModBlocks;
import emerald.emeraldsores.Init.ModItems;
import emerald.emeraldsores.Util.ModelInterface;
import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.block.BlockSlab;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraftforge.client.event.ModelRegistryEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.event.RegistryEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod.EventBusSubscriber;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent;

@EventBusSubscriber

public class RegistryHandler {
	
	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void onItemRegister(RegistryEvent.Register<Item> event) {
		
		event.getRegistry().registerAll(ModItems.ITEMS.toArray(new Item[0]));
		
	}
	
	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void onBlockRegister(RegistryEvent.Register<Block> event) {
		
		event.getRegistry().registerAll(ModBlocks.BLOCKS.toArray(new Block[0]));
		
	}
	
	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void onModelRegister(ModelRegistryEvent event) {
		
		for(Item item : ModItems.ITEMS) {
			
			if(item instanceof ModelInterface) {
				
				((ModelInterface)item).registerModels();
				
			}
			
		}
		
		for(Block block : ModBlocks.BLOCKS) {
			
			if(block instanceof ModelInterface) {
				
				((ModelInterface)block).registerModels();
				
			}
			
		}
		
	}

}

Problem Solved

When I made slabs, I ended up extending ItemSlab to create my own item class for the slabs. I needed to do that because I needed custom behavior in onItemUse, but you might be able to make an ItemSlab directly by passing in a block, half slab, and double slab. ItemSlab extends ItemBlock, so you would then register an instance of your ItemSlab instead of making a generic ItemBlock. You'll probably have to do something custom in your registry to detect when your ItemSlab is being registered.

You register it like you would do it in 1.11.* Except you do it inside your onitemregister methode.

Ok I see what your saying. But my problem is I don't know what to put in for the Block parameter. I have both the BlockSlabs in there (My slab and doubleslab) but what do I put for the Block.

I have made my own slabs too and i have a registryHandler class with the @EventBusSubscriber annotiation, where i have for example these 2 methods:

 

    	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void onItemRegister(RegistryEvent.Register<Item> event ) {
		
		event.getRegistry().registerAll(ItemInit.ITEMS.toArray(new Item[0]));
		
		ItemBlock item = new ItemSlab(BlockInit.TERRACOTTA_SLABS_HALF_A, (BlockSlab)BlockInit.TERRACOTTA_SLABS_HALF_A, (BlockSlab)BlockInit.TERRACOTTA_SLABS_DOUBLE_A);
		item.setRegistryName(BlockInit.TERRACOTTA_SLABS_HALF_A.getRegistryName());
		event.getRegistry().register(item);
	}
	
	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void onBlockRegister(RegistryEvent.Register<Block> event ) {
		
		event.getRegistry().registerAll(BlockInit.BLOCKS.toArray(new Block[0]));
		registerTileEntities();
	}

You also have to register the block ofcourse.

Another question. Should I register an itemblock for my doubleslab?

 

No.

Does vanilla have a double-slab item? No it does not. You don't need one either.

I figured as much. Just making sure I'm not messing up on that. Thanks.

Alright thanks everyone for the help, I finally got it to work and I wouldn't have been able to do it without you!

What IS inside your ModBlocks?
