Using the template helps a lot

BlockNamehere.java


mod_Namehere.java


HELP: BlockNamehere.java

At return mod_Namehere.Namehere.blockID;
This is what the block drops, Change mod_Namehere.Namehere not the .blockID
examples

return Block.grass.blockID;
return Item.clay.shiftedIndex;

HELP: mod_Namehere

At new BlockNamehere(190,
change 190, that is the block ID be careful not to use the same ID again

At .setHardness(1.0F)
change the 1.0, dirt is 0.5; stone is 1.5; 10 is unbreakable

At .setResistance(2500.0F)
this is how resistant the block is to Explosives
change the 2500.0, obsidian is 2000.0F all other blocks are 5.0F

At .setLightValue(1.0F)
this is how bright your block is
1.0F is as high as it goes, Torches are 0.9375F and redstone is 0.5F

At ModLoader.AddName(Namehere, "Nameingamehere");
this is the ingame name, so change Namehere to the block name (in mod_Namehere) and change Nameingamehere to whatever you want it to say ingame

At Namehere.blockIndexInTexture = ModLoader.addOverride("/terrain.png", "/Namehere.png");
this is the texture, change the Namehere.blockIndexInTexture and in the () change "/Namehere.png" ex. "/Mod/Fireblock.png" the /Mod/ is a folder and the Fireblock.png is the image file

Again use the template to your advantage

HELP: mod_Namehere

At if(j1 == 1)

world.setBlock(i + l, i1 + 1, j + k, Namehere.blockID);
world.setBlock(i + l, i1 + 2, j + k, Namehere.blockID);

add a world.setBlock(i + l, i1 + #HERE, j + k, Namehere.blockID); just change the #HERE to the next highest number

at the bottom where it says return l == Block.grass.blockID || 1 == Block.dirt.blockID;
add || 1 == Block.Namehere.blockID

mod_Namehere

This is just like making an item except you dont need to make ItemNamehere.java files!

now for the only difficult part. find EnumToolMaterial.java file and open it up

at the top where it says
WOOD("WOOD", 0, 0, 59, 2.0F, 0, 15),
STONE("STONE", 1, 1, 131, 4F, 1, 5),
IRON("IRON", 2, 2, 250, 6F, 2, 14),
EMERALD("EMERALD", 3, 3, 1561, 8F, 3, 10),
GOLD("GOLD", 4, 0, 32, 12F, 0, 22);

delete the ; after the Gold line and put a comma there

for a new material
Namehere("NAMEHERE", 5, #, ##, #F, #, ###);
# = 0 means it can only mine stone/coal, 1 means iron, 2 means gold/diamond/redstone/lupis, 3 means obsidian
## = how many uses
#F = How strong it is against ores
### = not sure XD put the same number as emerald (aka diamond)

Add

to you ItemNamehere.java file

mod_Namehere

goes in after
