Posted May 22, 201312 yr Hello, I'm a bit new to modding and require some help with creating a TileEntity. I've tried creating one before, but with no success. I would also like to make the TileEntity render with a custom model. If you could contact me privately on skype to help via IM and/or Teamviewer, that would be much appreciated. Skype:vista4utoday
May 22, 201312 yr Look up the Techne modeler. Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
May 22, 201312 yr Author I use that, but I'm not sure how to implement it, as well as get a gui, use the BuildCraft API, and make it create items based on NBT data.
May 22, 201312 yr Use techne to export to Java, which will give you a rendering class (I haven't imported any yet myself, but it looks to be everything you'd need to create a custom renderer). As for GUIs, those are immensely complicated (though you don't need a TE to make them). Can't help you with the BuildCraft API.

As for GUIs, those are immensely complicated (though you don't need a TE to make them). Can't help you with the BuildCraft API. Actually Techne exports only the model file. You have to make the render file for yourself (or use a pre-existing one). As for a TileEntity model, you need a TileEntitySpecialRenderer class and an ItemRenderer class (if you also want to render the model inside the inventory / when dropped / when held) Guis aren't THAT complicated. For some GUIs, look at my TurretMod3 source: https://github.com/SanAndreasP/TurretModv3/tree/master/sanandreasp/mods/TurretMod3 Features also TileEntities with custom models. Don't ask for support per PM! They'll get ignored! | If a post helped you, click the "Thank You" button at the top right corner of said post! | mah twitter 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.
May 22, 201312 yr https://github.com/xgravebornx/TileEntity-EXAMPLE this is a simple techne model rendered, dont know how to make it so it changes direction when placed but it renders the model! lol

For some GUIs, look at my TurretMod3 source: https://github.com/SanAndreasP/TurretModv3/tree/master/sanandreasp/mods/TurretMod3 Takes a large number of classes, plus packet handling, to pull off. I'm inching along slowly with my own GUI project.
