Custom death message when killed with custom sword.

[dude22072]

I have a custom weapon and was wondering if their is any way to have a unique death message when killed by it?

If you make a new instance of a DamageSource, you can add a custom death message for it via the LanguageRegistry.

 

DamageSourceSword class:

 

  Reveal hidden contents

package you.modname;

import net.minecraft.entity.Entity;
import net.minecraft.entity.EntityLivingBase;
import net.minecraft.util.ChatMessageComponent;
import net.minecraft.util.DamageSource;
import net.minecraft.util.EntityDamageSourceIndirect;
import net.minecraft.util.StatCollector;

public class DamageSourceSword extends DamageSource
{

protected DamageSourceSword(String par1Str) 
{
	super(par1Str);
}

public static DamageSource causeSwordDamage(Entity par0Entity, Entity par1Entity)
{
	return (new EntityDamageSourceIndirect("sword", par0Entity, par1Entity));
}

@Override
public ChatMessageComponent func_111181_b(EntityLivingBase par1EntityLivingBase)
    {
	EntityLivingBase entitylivingbase1 = par1EntityLivingBase.func_94060_bK();
        String s = "death.attack." + this.damageType;
        String s1 = s + ".player";
        return entitylivingbase1 != null && StatCollector.func_94522_b(s1) ? ChatMessageComponent.func_111082_b(s1, new Object[] {par1EntityLivingBase.getTranslatedEntityName(), entitylivingbase1.getTranslatedEntityName()}): ChatMessageComponent.func_111082_b(s, new Object[] {par1EntityLivingBase.getTranslatedEntityName()});
    }
}

 

 

In your mod file, preferably in @PreInit():

 

  Reveal hidden contents

LanguageRegistry.instance().addStringLocalization("death.attack.sword", "%1$s was sliced to death"); //This shouldn't happen, but add anyway.
LanguageRegistry.instance().addStringLocalization("death.attack.sword.player", "%1$s was sliced to death by %2$s"); //Death from the damagesource, because of a player. Should always be this.
LanguageRegistry.instance().addStringLocalization("death.attack.sword.item", "%1$s was sliced to death by %2$s using %3$s"); //Death from the damagesource of they renamed the sword

It says the following imports don't exist:

import net.minecraft.entity.EntityLivingBase;
import net.minecraft.util.ChatMessageComponent;

If you're using Eclipse on Windows, use this key combo:

CTRL + SHIFT + O

It should sort your imports.

That does not solve my issue...

it actually makes it worse.

Is this in 1.6.2?  I believe both of those classes were added as of the 1.6.2 update

ctrl+shift+o will never make it worst, if you're getting more error because of it it means that the fix you were trying to do is actuallly wayyy worst then the result after ctrol sihft o
