[SOLVED] Modifying / Replacing Vanilla Blocks (1.16.X)

[Wintersky20]

Ok guys .. So , I'm trying to replace a vanilla block in 1.16.4 but no luck!

First I created a Workspace like I always do ..

I created a block class for my replaced block:

public class ExempleBlock extends CactusBlock /*just an ex.*/ {
    public ExempleBlock() {
        super(AbstractBlock.Properties.from(Blocks.CACTUS));
    }

}

Then I tried to register it :

First method( copied from an old 1.12 mod by rwTema )

@Mod.EventHandler/* not in 1.16*/
	public void preinit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event) {/* not in 1.16 , I think*/
		Block blockDietHopper = new BlockDietHopper();
		ForgeRegistries.BLOCKS.register(blockDietHopper);
	}

Then I tried to do this with a new registry event

//from the exemple mod
private void setup(final FMLCommonSetupEvent event){
		Block ex = new ExempleBlock();
		ForgeRegistries.BLOCKS.register(ex);
}

no luck

Then I tried this :

@Mod(ExempleMain.MOD_ID)
public class ExempleMain
{
    public static final String MOD_ID = "id";
    private static final Logger LOGGER = LogManager.getLogger();
    public static final DeferredRegister<Block> BLOCKS = DeferredRegister.create(ForgeRegistries.BLOCKS, "minecraft");
    public static final RegistryObject<Block> BETTER_EXEMPLE = BLOCKS.register("exemple_block", () -> new ExempleBlock());

    public ExempleMain() {
        IEventBus bus = FMLJavaModLoadingContext.get().getModEventBus();
        bus.addListener(this::setup);
        ExempleMain.BLOCKS.register(bus);
    }
    private void setup(final FMLCommonSetupEvent event){}

}

No luck  

The idea is , I want to modify the TileEntity or the TESR for the vanilla blocks (ex: tools hovering on enchanting table , Nethar anchor GUI, Composter GUI, etc)

 

Note:

I use IntelliJ and mdk-1.16.4-35.1.37

 

And Thanks for every topic

Note: I am using registry events instead of deferred registry so if someone chimes in on a difference that works better than listen to them. this method still works so i am yet to be motivated to change.

I am able to replace blocks using the RegistryEvent.Register<Block>.
I get the old resource location ForgeRegistries.BLOCKS.getKey(oldBlock); and set the custom block with that blocks registry location newBlock.setRegistryName(resourceLocation); ForgeRegistries.BLOCKS.register(newBlock);

I also replace the Item (again i dont know if this is still needed as doing so still works so i have yet to change it)

If all you want is to change the screen, not the block itself, you can create your own ContainerScreen, and than bind that to the vanilla Containers

You have a point , but I want to change the entire tile , for input and output in to the blocks

Thanks a lot for the replay ,, but I solve it
