Extend your block class as BlockContainer, make a TileEntity and TileEntitRenderer classes, then put the code in to

your block class

public boolean renderAsNormalBlock()
    {
        return false;
    }

public boolean isOpaqueCube()
    {
        return false;
    }

public int getRenderType()
    {
        return 0;
    }

public boolean shouldSideBeRendered(IBlockAccess iblockaccess, int i, int j, int k, int l) {
        return false;
}
public TileEntity createNewTileEntity(World world) {
	return new TileEntityYourBlock();
}

your main class load method

ModLoader.registerTileEntity(net.yourpackage.src.TileEntityYourBlock.class, "Name", new TileEntityYourBlockRenderer());

Using ModLoader classes is bad practice when coding with Forge!

Use this:

GameRegistry.registerTileEntity(

PS: If you find something which you can use with a ModLoader class, look into that class and you'll see the forge equivalent. Basically all ModLoader classes are just wrappers to accomplish compatibility with ModLoader mods.

This thread makes me sad because people just post copy-paste-ready code when it's obvious that the OP has little to no programming experience. This is not how learning works.

If ModLoader classes are just wrappers to accomplish compatibility, there's no difference what to use. I just took my old code, find out it's still working and continued using it.

That is not the point! Always use Forge methods! Why? ModLoader is client-only. What if you have loads of ModLoader stuff and want to use your mod on a server or make it compatible with it? You simply have to use the Forge methods, because ModLoader is simply not there, since it's client-only.

Yes there is, look at the class itself. It's in there, most of my mods use it:

public static void registerTileEntity(Class<? extends TileEntity> tileEntityClass, String id)

Related to this discussion on ModLoader vs Forge commands, I have the method

public static void registerTileEntity(Class<? extends TileEntity> tileEntityClass, String id)

But I am unsure on how this will connect to my TileEntityRenderer class. My block works except I can't seem to attach the proper rendering to it.

How do I connect my TileEntityRenderer class to the block to make sure my rendering gets used?

Read my thoughts on my summer mod work and tell me what you think!

You do this with ClientRegistry.bindTileEntitySpecialRenderer. Put that in your Proxy to avoid crashes with the server.

How to change player renderer and transform model parts?

I have been trying for a while now to make a custom player renderer, and replace the vanilla player renderer with it. So far I've come up with a custom player renderer class that extends vanilla PlayerRenderer:
package com.FireDude123.BOTW.entity.renderer; import com.mojang.blaze3d.vertex.PoseStack; import net.minecraft.client.player.AbstractClientPlayer; import net.minecraft.client.renderer.MultiBufferSource; import net.minecraft.client.renderer.entity.player.PlayerRenderer; import net.minecraft.client.renderer.entity.EntityRendererProvider; import net.minecraftforge.client.event.RenderPlayerEvent; import net.minecraftforge.common.MinecraftForge; public class PoseablePlayerRenderer extends PlayerRenderer { public PoseablePlayerRenderer(EntityRendererProvider.Context ctx, boolean slim) { super(ctx, slim); System.out.println("here too"); } @Override public void render(AbstractClientPlayer p_117788_, float p_117789_, float p_117790_, PoseStack poseStack, MultiBufferSource p_117792_, int p_117793_) { System.out.println("didnt get here lol"); model.leftArm.xRot=(float)Math.toRadians(160); super.render(p_117788_, p_117789_, p_117790_, poseStack, p_117792_, p_117793_); } } As you can see, the intended purpose of this is to raise the player's left arm by 160 degrees. However, combined with this logic in ClientModEvents:
@Mod.EventBusSubscriber(modid = MODID, bus = Mod.EventBusSubscriber.Bus.MOD, value = Dist.CLIENT) public static class ClientModEvents { @SubscribeEvent public static void onClientSetup(FMLClientSetupEvent event) { EntityRenderers.register((EntityType<? extends AbstractClientPlayer>)(EntityType<?)EntityType.PLAYER, ctx -> new PoseablePlayerRenderer(ctx, true)); EntityRenderers.register(Entities.MAGNESIS_BLOCK.get(), com.FireDude123.BOTW.entity.renderer.BlockDisplayRenderer::new); EntityRenderers.register(Entities.REMOTE_BOMB.get(), ThrownItemRenderer::new); EntityRenderers.register(Entities.CRYONIS_ICE.get(), com.FireDude123.BOTW.entity.renderer.BlockDisplayRenderer::new); EntityRenderers.register(Entities.STASIS_BLOCK.get(), FallingBlockRenderer::new); } @SubscribeEvent public static void registerLayerDefinitions(EntityRenderersEvent.RegisterLayerDefinitions event) { event.registerLayerDefinition(new ModelLayerLocation(new ResourceLocation(BOTW.MODID, "paraglider"), "main"), ParagliderLayer::createBodyLayer); } }(I also have a paraglider layer here for something else, it's working perfectly fine, also I used the slim setting because the player is slim in 1.20.1 forge)
This logic isn't replacing the renderer, as far as I can tell. Can someone please advise as to why, and how to fix it?

How to add my mob to another mod's biome in 1.20.1.

I'm on 1.20.1 and was wondering if there was a way to add a mob I am going to make to a other mod's biome (Regions Unexplored in this case). I am trying to figure this out before I start coding the mod. Could someone point me to a good guide on this? I saw some things about biome modifier's but all the resources are either to short, unhelpful or for a different version. Thanks in advance. (i am a beginner but i have java and modding knowledge so this isn't like a "i am new and don't know anything about coding" problem btw)

Dealing with modded server issues can be a real headache been there! At least you can keep your look stress-free with a fresh low taper fade.

Help with file conversion

Many Forge users seek help with file conversions. Similarly, managing your health can benefit from structured tools like the https://wellness-app.com/calculator/fasting-calculator/ and a free intermittent fasting calculator. These tools help you plan and personalize your fasting and eating windows based on your lifestyle and goals. By entering your preferred fasting duration and meal times, you receive a tailored schedule that makes intermittent fasting easier to follow. Just as mastering file conversions improves modding success, using a fasting calculator brings clarity and structure to your health routine, supporting better results over time.

Cobblemon invalid player data

Hi everyone, I keep getting "invalid player data" when trying to log onto my friend's server. Log analysis says to remove Night Lights and ImmediatelyFast, but that doesn't work. Any insight is appreciated
