Hello,

 

I'm looking for a tutorial on how to make custom tools and armour on Minecraft 1.5.2. I've followed Havvy's tutorials, but the tools tutorial isn't done yet; I would like to know if anyone would be willing to help me out or to give me a proper tutorial.

 

Thanks by advance,

Have a great day.

You think custom tool like custom axe/pickaxe/shovel or universal tool ?

I'm thinking of an axe, pickaxe, shovel, sword and hoe; in separate tools.

You need Material for these tools, I think you want to have your own material..

all these lines you need to write into the base class of your mod!

 

 

public static EnumToolMaterial matname = EnumHelper.addToolMaterial("unlocalNameofMaterial",harvest level,maxUses,efficiency,damage,enchantibility);

 

Example of Material:

 

public static EnumToolMaterial STAR = EnumHelper.addToolMaterial("STAR", 2, 625, 6.0F, 4, 10);

 

And this is for the custom tool:

You need to extend:

ItemAxe for custom axe

ItemPickaxe for custom pickaxe

ItemHoe for custom hoe

ItemSword for custom sword

ItemSpade for custom shovel

ItemTool for custom universal tool

Example create a class customAxe and edit the:

public class customAxe

to

public class customAxe extends ItemAxe

And you have to add unimplemented methods...

Can you explain what are the numbers in the EnumHelper ? (I know the harvest level of 3 = minable obsidian, but I forgot about the others)

An explanation is in the spoiler above it

Thank you, I've taken the basic EnumToolMaterial to compare to vanilla Minecraft materials. Thanks again for your time!

Hum... I don't know why but my Eclipse doesn't seem to like EnumHelper... "EnumHelper cannot be resolved"

Can you post the code ?

Have you imported all right ?

public static EnumToolMaterial steelMaterial = EnumHelper.addToolMaterial("materialSteel", 2,550,6.2F,2.5,9);

 

My imports:

 

import s0vietique.alloycraft.common.CommonProxyClass;
import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;
import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.item.EnumToolMaterial;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraftforge.common.MinecraftForge;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.Init;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.Instance;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.PostInit;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.PreInit;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.SidedProxy;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPostInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPreInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.NetworkMod;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.GameRegistry;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.LanguageRegistry;

 

I think you need int, not double in section of the code with bold text

public static EnumToolMaterial steelMaterial = EnumHelper.addToolMaterial("materialSteel", 2,550,6.2F,2.5,9);

So, it need to be (I think):

public static EnumToolMaterial steelMaterial = EnumHelper.addToolMaterial("materialSteel", 2,550,6.2F,3,9);

And you need to import this:

import net.minecraftforge.common.EnumHelper;

I wish this will get out the error! 

 

//EDIT

You need to take attention on the variable types, like: (examples)

Float - 0.0F,0.5F,1.6F

Double - 0.0,1.0

Boolean - true/false

Int - 1,2,3,5

String - "String"

It actually works! Thanks again for your help!
