I want to update a forge mod I made to work with MC 1.5+, but I'm having trouble with the new texture system.  My mod changes how a vanilla block is rendered on the client (in this case, it changes the standard rail blocks).  I used to be able to just register a multi-texture file in the mod initializer method and set the block's render id and texture file to my own.  All the tutorials I've seen for MC 1.5+ are added in the block class.  I really don't want to override the vanilla class for this mod as it complicates the installation process.  Is there a way to register a texture file outside of a block class?

sounds like you may need to either reflect to get access to the block's icon and replace it with your own, or reflect to replace the block instance with one of your own which will bind your custom texture

I think its my java of the variables.

I'm not sure what you mean by "reflect to get access", and I can't seem to replace the instance of the block easily.

I think I may have answered my own question.  I was surfing the code when I found the TextureStitchEvent.  It seems that the pre texture stitch even happens at just the right time to register the textures.  However, the textures aren't appearing correctly.  All I'm seeing is diamond block, gold block, and emerald block textures.  Any reason why that might be?

 

Edit: never mind.  I was having problems with how many times registerIcon() actually gets called.

      updateShape functionality deep dive

      By Sandermall · Posted

      Hello all. I'm currently grappling with the updateShape method in a custom class extending Block.  My code currently looks like this: The conditionals in CheckState are there to switch blockstate properties, which is working fine, as it functions correctly every time in getStateForPlacement.  The problem I'm running into is that when I update a state, the blocks seem to call CheckState with the position of the block which was changed updated last.  If I build a wall I can see the same change propagate across. My question thus is this: is updateShape sending its return to the neighbouring block?  Is each block not independently executing the updateShape method, thus inserting its own current position?  The first statement appears to be true, and the second false (each block is not independently executing the method). I have tried to fix this by saving the block's own position to a variable myPos at inception, and then feeding this in as CheckState(myPos) but this causes a worse outcome, where all blocks take the update of the first modified block, rather than just their neighbour.  This raises more questions than it answers, obviously: how is a different instance's variable propagating here?  I also tried changing it so that CheckState did not take a BlockPos, but had myPos built into the body - same problem. I have previously looked at neighbourUpdate and onNeighbourUpdate, but could not find a way to get this to work at all.  One post on here about updatePostPlacement and other methods has proven itself long superceded.  All other sources on the net seem to be out of date. Many thanks in advance for any help you might offer me, it's been several days now of trying to get this work and several weeks of generally trying to get round this roadblock.  - Sandermall
