hey everyone. Today I'm going to be showing you how to make a new block with the properties of stone. Let's get started.

we need 2 classes to make a block
Blockyourblock and mod_yourblock

mod_yourblock
just like always we need our mod_ classes to extend basemod, have load, and have getversion

after that you need to add this in the load method
yourblock.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/yourblock.png");
ModLoader.registerBlock(yourblock);
ModLoader.addName(yourblock, "yourblock");
on the first/second line you see the addoverride method
this means that blocks are normally on terrain.png and you are overriding that and saying instead you want it to show yourblock.png
then on the rest we are just registering and adding a name to the block
next we need to add this but not inside load
public static final Block yourblock = new Blockyourblock(160, 0).setBlockName("yourblock").setHardness(3F).setResistance(4F).setLightValue(1F);
this is giving the block all of its properties
160 is the block id and the others set the name,how hard it it,how much blast resistance it has, and how much light it puts out.
your mod_ class should now look like this


now the blockyourblock class
copy and paste this in to start

then you need this
public BlockNamehere(int i, int j)
{
super(i, j, Material.stone);
}

public int idDropped(int i, Random random, int j)
{
return mod_yourblock.yourblock.blockID;
}
public int quantityDropped(Random random)
{
return 1;
}}
this says the material, what it drops, and how much it drops
here is how it should look when its done
