Crafting recipe with colored wool?

Dear Community,

i've already spent a couple of days searching without any result. Could you help me with my problem?

I created some crafting recipes on my own bukkit-server and one of these is a horse barding. But my problem is the colored wool, because all of these codes like
ItemStack redwool = new ItemStack( Material.WOOL, 1, (byte)4 )
don't work within a crafting recipe.

My code for the diamond_barding is:

ItemStack Item2 = new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND_BARDING);
ItemMeta meta2 = Item2.getItemMeta();
Item2.setItemMeta(meta2);
ShapedRecipe recipe2 = new ShapedRecipe(Item2);
recipe2.shape("00D", "BWD", "BBB");
recipe2.setIngredient('D', Material.DIAMOND);
recipe2.setIngredient('W', Material.WOOL);
recipe2.setIngredient('B', Material.DIAMOND_BLOCK);
Bukkit.addRecipe(recipe2);


I would like to replace the usual wool with a blue wool, so it will look more ralistic.
If you know any solution, PLEASE HELP!

Thanks inn advance,
PauleFaule

 

Moved to Plugin Development.

 

PauleFaule

Code:java

recipe2.setIngredient('W', Material.WOOL, 11);

It's deprecated, but I'm pretty sure it will accept blue wool (Damage 11) and not any other color.

 

PauleFaule I'm not is if the works or not (if it doesn't then just do with AoH_Ruthless 's thing):

Code:java

public ItemStack ColouredWool(DyeColor color, int amount) {
        ItemStack wool = new Wool(color).toItemStack(amount);
        return wool;
    }

I don't think it will work because ItemStacks aren't usable for Crafting recipes (has to be Materials only)

 

AoH_Ruthless Crap, you're right. :/

 

JRL1004 Why not do a metadata value.

 

PolarCraft I suck at metadata so I tend to avoid it

 

JRL1004 Do this.

Code:java

short data = DATAVALUE(#);
ItemStack NAME = new ItemStack(Material.WOOL);
NAME.setDurability(data);

 

PolarCraft Umm, I'm not the thread creator, PauleFaule is (assuming you want the thread creator to do that).

 

JRL1004 Oops yeah lel. But still that should work ^^

 

PolarCraft
Again, that won't work for the issue at hand because crafting recipe uses Material, not ItemStack.

 

AoH_Ruthless You wold do NAME.getdata() instead of Material.WHATEVER()

 

PolarCraft
Ahh I see what you are saying now.
That might be better than what I suggested because your way isn't deprecated

 

AoH_Ruthless & everyone else who replied:

THANK YOU!

I always thought that deprecated stuff wouldn't work, but it does. I thought this was too easy...

Now I got a second question about potions within craftingrecipes. Shall I open another thread?

EDIT: The potion-problem is solvable the same way, so thank you again AoH_Ruthless
