You need to start it with
ModRecipe recipe = new ModRecipe(this);

I did that, still getting the same error when building the mod...

Oh, my guess is this method isn't inside the Mod Class. If you don't know what I mean, post the whole file.

Something like this: https://github.com/bluemagic123/tModLoader/blob/master/ExampleMod/NPCs/ExamplePerson.cs#L199

I'm having difficulty creating a workbench, whenever i place it it only puts down 2/6 pieces of it, I need help

Here is my code:

using System;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework;
using Terraria;
using Terraria.DataStructures;
using Terraria.ID;
using Terraria.ModLoader;
using Terraria.ObjectData;

namespace SwordsNStuff.Tiles
{
    public class AlloyFurnace : ModTile
    {
        public override void SetDefaults()
        {
            Main.tileSolidTop[Type] = true;
            Main.tileFrameImportant[Type] = true;
            Main.tileNoAttach[Type] = true;
            Main.tileTable[Type] = false;
            Main.tileLavaDeath[Type] = true;
            TileObjectData.newTile.CopyFrom(TileObjectData.Style3x2);
            TileObjectData.newTile.CoordinateHeights = new int[] { 18 };
            TileObjectData.addTile(Type);
            AddToArray(ref TileID.Sets.RoomNeeds.CountsAsTable);
            AddMapEntry(new Color(200, 200, 200), "Alloy Furnace");
            dustType = 0;
            disableSmartCursor = true;
            adjTiles = new int[] { TileID.WorkBenches };
        }

        public override void NumDust(int i, int j, bool fail, ref int num)
        {
            num = fail ? 1 : 3;
        }

        public override void KillMultiTile(int i, int j, int frameX, int frameY)
        {
            Item.NewItem(i * 16, j * 16, 32, 16, mod.ItemType("AlloyFunrace"));
        }
    }
}

and for the placable item:

using System;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework;
using Terraria;
using Terraria.DataStructures;
using Terraria.ID;
using Terraria.ModLoader;

namespace SwordsNStuff.Items.Placeable

            item.useStyle = 1;
            item.consumable = true;
            item.value = 550;
            item.createTile = mod.TileType("AlloyFurnace");
        }

        public override void AddRecipes()

    }

PROBLEM!!!! everytime i pickup a drop (e.g wood apple acorn) it stops my player and i cant move!

 

[Tehpootisman]

Okay, with this new update, all my weapons got kinda screwed up. Something about the sounds, apparently.

c:\Users\tehpootisman\Documents\My Games\Terraria\ModLoader\Mod Sources\Pootis\Items\Weapons\PathogenX.cs(28,18) : error CS1061: 'Terraria.Item' does not contain a definition for 'useSound' and no extension method 'useSound' accepting a first argument of type 'Terraria.Item' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

            }
        }

Figured i'd go ahead and ask just in case I wanted to try using custom sounds in the future.

Edit: Oh, I just found the link about the issue right after I posted this, lmao.

Can Some on help I got this but animation don't play

   public override void FindFrame(int frameHeight)
        {
            npc.frameCounter %= Main.npcFrameCount[npc.type];
            int frame = (int)npc.frameCounter;
            npc.frame.Y = frame * frameHeight;
            frame++;
            npc.spriteDirection = npc.direction;
        }

            frame++;
            npc.spriteDirection = npc.direction;
        }

From what I can see, you are never changing npc.frameCounter, so npc.frame.Y never changes.
