Block Ore Errors

[SoldierW518]

Hello, I've been working on my mod and ran into some problems. Anything that is glowing in red shows an error in the code.

 

package SoldierW518.Soldiers_Mod;

 

import java.util.Random;

import net.minecraft.block.Block;

import net.minecraft.block.BlockOre;

import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;

 

public class IridiumOre extends BlockOre {

public IridiumOre (int id, int texture, Material material) {

[glow=red,2,300]super(id, texture, material);[/glow]

 

setHardness(5.0F);

setStepSound(Block.soundStoneFootstep);

[glow=red,2,300]setBlockName[/glow]("iridiumOre");

setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);

}

        @Override

public String [glow=red,2,300]getTextureFile()[/glow] {

return CommonProxy.BLOCK_PNG;

}

 

public int idDropped(int par1, Random random, int par2) {

return Soldiers_Mod.iridiumOre.blockID;

}

 

}

 

Any suggestions would be very helpful and feel free to leave them down below!

 

Thanks for any help and for reading,

BlockOre doesn't have such a constructor, and furthermore, that texture system is horribly outdated. http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Tutorials

I got the code from http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Basic_Items.

Use this one... (please read, not copy)

package MyMod.blocks;

import java.util.Random;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;

import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;
import net.minecraft.client.renderer.texture.IconRegister;
import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.util.Icon;
import net.minecraft.world.World;

import MyMod.Main;

public class BlockOre extends Block
{
public BlockOre (int id, Material material, String Unlocalized)
{
	super(id, material);
		setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);
		setStepSound(Block.soundMetalFootstep);
		setUnlocalizedName(Unlocalized);
}

public int idDropped (int par1, Random random, int par2)
{
	return this.blockID;
}

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public Icon getIcon(int par1, int par2)
{
	return this.blockIcon;
}

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public void registerIcons(IconRegister iconRegister)
{
	blockIcon = iconRegister.registerIcon("MyMod:" + getUnlocalizedName().replace("tile.", ""));
}
}

This one:

	blockIcon = iconRegister.registerIcon("MyMod:" + getUnlocalizedName().replace("tile.", ""));

Will call for /minecarft.jar/mods/MyMod/textures/blocks/Unlocalized.png

Where unlocalized is your String.

.replace("tile.", "") - and yes, this is needed.

[SoldierW518]

So I was looking through your code and I came up with this.

public IridiumOre (int id, Material material, String IridiumOre)
{
super(id, material);
	setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);
	setStepSound(Block.soundStoneFootstep);
	setUnlocalizedName("IridiumOre");
}

 

Because by the looks of it I could just change the String Variable and that would allow me to use a IridiumOre.png

It's easier if you use getUnlocalizedName2(); that doesn't have the "tile."

as far as i know you need to delete the material constructor for ores 

[Ernio]

As far as i know, no you don't

public Block(int par1, Material par2Material)
{
}

Or maybe there has been changes on 1.5.2? because i am using 1.5.1 (No need to update, will when I'm finished or if I would really need something).

 

As to you Soldier - do you even know how constructors work?

Ok man, look:

You got my code, so you just leave it. Copy to BlockOre.class (or something)

Next go to the MainMod.class and write this:

public static final Block IridiumOre = new BlockOre(1000, Material.rock, "IridiumOre");
//1 - ID, 2 - Material, 3 - Unlocalized name

Now you just need to register block and add IngameName (which you can also do in BlockOre.class by adding more code of course).

 

 

ObsequiousNewt - thanks pal, didn't noticed that, but in BlockOre I personally wont use it (but in other yes)

[ObsequiousNewt]

As far as i know, no you don't

public Block(int par1, Material par2Material)
{
}

Or maybe there has been changes on 1.5.2? because i am using 1.5.1 (No need to update, will when I'm finished or if I would really need something).

Block takes a Material argument. BlockOre doesn't—it's preset to Material.rock.
