MCreator bugs and how to fix them
Tue, 10/10/2017 - 20:33 (edited)

MCreator 1.7.5 for Minecraft 1.11.2

Here are 4 bugs I've found and figured out how to fix:

 

Shovels or "Spades"

MCreators "Spade" tool will not have any efficiency boost for blocks you normaly destroy with shovels/spades, and here's why:

If you click "Edit code of selected code element" while having selected your shovel/spade, you can scroll down till you find this:

static { Item.ToolMaterial enumt = EnumHelper.addToolMaterial("MyShovel", 2, 2250, 9F, 3, 40); block = (Item) (new ItemSpade(enumt) { public Set<String> getToolClasses(ItemStack stack) { HashMap<String, Integer> ret = new HashMap<String, Integer>(); ret.put("spade", 2);     <-- You want to look here return ret.keySet(); } }).setUnlocalizedName("MyShovel"); block.setRegistryName("MyShovel"); GameRegistry.register(block); block.setCreativeTab(mcreator_gDMTab.tab);   }   find the line:
ret.put("spade", 1); and simply change it to:
ret.put("shovel", 1); the number 1 on this line represents your shovel's "Harvest Level"     Biomes   When creating a biome you will get an error message no matter what you try to change. (atleast for me) Once again you click "Edit code of selected code element" and find this:   static { customProps = new Biome.BiomeProperties("theDirtOnlyLand"); customProps.setRainfall(0.5F); customProps.setBaseHeight(0.1F); customProps.setHeightVariation(0.3F); customProps.setWaterColor();     <-- You want to look here biome = new BiomeGentheDirtOnlyLand(customProps); }   simply delete the line:
customProps.setWaterColor(); and it will work fine.     Item Names   Item names in game are displayed like this: item.MyItem.name instead of like this: My Item   there's an easy fix here too.   Go to: MCreator\forge\src\main\resources
Here is a file named: pack.mcmeta
Open it and change pack_format from 3 to 2.     Servers   I found that if your mod doesn't work on servers theres 1 thing that might be the reason for it. Blocks that spawn particles seems to be 1 reason for making your mod unable to run on servers. Just remove the particles from those blocks and your mod is server ready.   Or you can do this: (credit to LueLusten) "You need to remove the line around line 90 on a normal block" - LueLusten Find this code:   public void randomDisplayTick(IBlockState state, World world, BlockPos pos, Random random) { EntityPlayer entity = Minecraft.getMinecraft().player;     <-- Remove this line int i = pos.getX(); int j = pos.getY(); int k = pos.getZ(); World par1World = world; int par2 = i; int par3 = j; int par4 = k; Random par5Random = random;

Remove the line: EntityPlayer entity = Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer;     I hope the Pylo team take note of this so they can fix it in future updates.

Thanks for this topic!
You can fix the biomes error also by adding custom biomes colors, but if you don't want, you need to fix it in the way you showed here.

Really? Shovels don't work? I need to fix my lavic shovel (lol I have made only one shovel in my mod)

Ok i seems you missed one of the problems for blocks and servers you need to remove the line around line 90 on a normal block without adding contaners or any other silly options lol

Remove or comment out:
[spoiler]EntityPlayer entity = Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer;[/spoiler]
If you check all the code you will find this is not even called on a default block, this fixed all my block problems, when this link is left in it will make the block not been seen by the server or other play when you place it or it will wig out and ad a negative number on your item and not place it.

Hello. I know these posts are old, but could this be what causes my mod to fail on servers? I'm in the 2021 snapshot
