How do you get a spawn egg into a custom creative tab?

[Jacknoshima]

I've made my custom spawn egg and I've made my creative tab

However, I'm unsure as to how you go about getting the spawn egg into the custom creative tab...

[Draco18s]

EntityList.addMapping(MobEntity.class, "Mob", mobID, baseColor, secondaryColor);

 

Edit:

Had the egg code wrong.  This will work better.

As for getting them into a custom tab, I don't know.

He said that he already made the spawn egg, but he doesn't know how to add it to his creative tab, not that he doesn't know how to make a spawn egg!

[Jacknoshima]

Yeah

I've already got the spawn egg

 

Thank you for the info anyway

Oh well.  At least that line is floating around now for searches.  I managed to find it only by accident when helping someone else.

 

My question for you, if you've done it, is how do you localize the entity name?  Mine keeps coming out as mod.[ent name].entityliving or somesuch.

ModLoader.addLocalization("mob.[entity_name].name", "[your_mob_name]")

 

I think that should do it.

[Draco18s]

ModLoader.addLocalization("mob.[entity_name].name", "[your_mob_name]")

 

Let's try the Forge version.  Which I got to by opening up ModLoader.java and finding that function, because FML is just a remapping of ModLoader functions to Forge functions.

 

LanguageRegistry.addStringLocalization(key, lang, value);

[Jacknoshima]

Not entirely sure what you mean... I'm not very good at coding, I'm just sorta limping through tutorials

 

but to get the entity name I did it where I registered the entity...

 

so the bottom one gets the name

 

 

		EntityRegistry.registerModEntity(EntitySpiritMob.class, "Spirit", 2, this, 41, 1, true);
	EntityRegistry.addSpawn(EntitySpiritMob.class, 15, 2, 4, EnumCreatureType.monster, Deadworld.deadBiome, Deadworld.deadForest);
	LanguageRegistry.instance().addStringLocalization("entity.jnoshima_deadworld.Spirit.name", "Spirit");

 

 

so when it kills the player it says "slain by Spirit" and the spawn egg is "Spawn Spirit"

to set the spawn egg to the creative tab you want to add onto your spawn egg code,

.setCreativeTabs(Mod File w/ creative tab.spiritEgg)
