[Unsolved] Rendering a new Fire Block.

Recommended Posts

Trying to create a new Fire Block, that does no damage when a player walks into it.

 

Loaded up the game, the item looks good in my hands, but when I place it down, it appears as an invisible block, it does not render in-game.

Help?

import java.util.Random;

import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;

public class BlockFakeFire extends Block
{
    private boolean smoke;

    protected BlockFakeFire(int i, int j, boolean flag)
    {
        super(i, Material.fire);
        setTickRandomly(true);
        smoke = flag;        
    }

    /**
     * Is this block (a) opaque and (b) a full 1m cube?  This determines whether or not to render the shared face of two
     * adjacent blocks and also whether the player can attach torches, redstone wire, etc to this block.

    public boolean isOpaqueCube()
    {
        return false;

    }

    public void randomDisplayTick(World world, int i, int j, int k, Random random)
    {
        if (random.nextInt(24) == 0)
        {
            world.playSoundEffect((float)i + 0.5F, (float)j + 0.5F, (float)k + 0.5F, "fire.fire", 1.0F + random.nextFloat(), random.nextFloat() * 0.7F + 0.3F);
        }

        if (smoke)
        {
            for (int l = 0; l < 5; l++)
            {
                float f = (float)i + random.nextFloat();
                float f1 = (float)j + random.nextFloat();
                float f2 = (float)k + random.nextFloat();
                world.spawnParticle("largesmoke", f, f1, f2, 0.0D, 0.0D, 0.0D);
            }
        }
    }
}

 

Main Class - Part of it :P

        Block block3 = (new BlockFakeFire(fireID, 31, false)).setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock).setUnlocalizedName("fakefire").setLightValue(1.0F);
        GameRegistry.registerBlock(block3, "FireWall");
        LanguageRegistry.addName(block3, "Fire Wall");

Why is your render type 180? Either set it to 3 (the render type of a fire block) or return Block.fire.getRenderType() to make sure yours always renders the same as fire in case the number is ever changed.

Read my thoughts on my summer mod work and tell me what you think!

" DO NOT "

 

Putting quote marks around things does not make them important.

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

 

Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked.

 

DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.

Nice. The great thing about knowing people who like to browse the Internet (when you don't) is that they will share the gems with you and you don't have to see the crud.

BEWARE OF GOD

xAlright alright, sorry xD

 

Well, overriding getIcon works, everything works fine, except there is now one little problem.

 

The fire block itself now, isn't like the actual fire block from vanilla minecraft.

It has appeared that it is exactly like a block, and all the sides of the block have the fire texture.

coolboy: You still need to return the right renderType

Never mind, guys, thanks for everything :D

 

I told you I am an idiotic freak, with no knowledge.

I forgot to add this:

 

    public int getRenderType()
    {
        return Block.fire.getRenderType();
    }
