Hi!
I'm trying to make a custom computer. It works correctly, but it's invisible.
Spoiler
Here's the code:
Spoiler
comp = (BlockComputer) new BlockComputer().setBlockUnbreakable();
GameRegistry.registerBlock(comp, ItemComputer.class, "comp");
I suggest, that Dan should make some kind of code, that allows us to make custom computers.
And yes, those are the items for the invisible computers. :P/>
I've tried this with Forge#1360 with CC1.64-1.73, and still no luck.

Sorry that I say this, but I'm not a noob in programming. I've tried almost everything possible. I've even made a custom TE, but the problem was that the redstone connection wasn't working, but the texture was. I have placed a breakpoint on getTexture(int side), and it looks like that it's never getting called.
Here's the inheritance:
Spoiler
A little peek inside cc.jar says, that it should call generic.getTexture, if the block has a TE, and it's a TileGeneric. On the image, my TE is clearly extending TileGeneric. I don't know what's going on now.

Hmm… it looks like this is a weird bug in MC/Forge
Spoiler
It looks like that there's a syncing issue, because the client thinks, that there's no TE.

Does anyone put something serious here?

Is the code on GitHub, or somewhere public. I might be able to have a look - I doubt this is a bug with Forge and more likely your code somewhere, also shouldn't this be in Ask a Pro?

Well, idk. This post is intended to show the hassle that I put into making a custom computer, thus showing Dan to extend the API to be able to make custom computers. And for the GitHub thing, I'll put it up, just wait a bit.
Edit: GitHub for Windows is a b****,
but here's the repo,
but I'm still uploading it.

Well I'm not going to pretend I know how to mod very well, but I have a single working mod prototype.
And this is how I make blocks with multisided textures:
@Override
public void registerBlockIcons(IIconRegister iconReg)
{
iconArray[1] = iconReg.registerIcon(StringLibrary.MODID + ":prefueled_furnace_top");
iconArray[0] = iconReg.registerIcon(StringLibrary.MODID + ":prefueled_furnace_bottom");
iconArray[2] = iconReg.registerIcon(StringLibrary.MODID + ":prefueled_furnace_side");
iconArray[3] = iconReg.registerIcon(StringLibrary.MODID + ":prefueled_furnace_side");
iconArray[4] = iconReg.registerIcon(StringLibrary.MODID + ":prefueled_furnace_side");
iconArray[5] = iconReg.registerIcon(StringLibrary.MODID + ":prefueled_furnace_front");
debug("Prefueled Furnace texture registered");
}
@Override
public IIcon getIcon(int side, int meta)
{
return iconArray[side];
}
This is in the block's class, not its tile entity's class
(Note my tile entity doesn't work, but the block textures do)

The getIcon is the problem. In BlockGenetic Dan added a final modifier to that function, so I can't override it.
