1.0 creating a bookshelf
Is there no longer a way to create a function bookshelf? I can't paint storage and nothing I've tried to create that you CAN paint has the ability to hold items...even the bookcase buildable item.

What the hell?

If they removed the paint option ... probably not without a mod.

If a block (still) exists in creative menu, you can usually create a crafting recipe for it if you know the block name, so it would show up in crafting menu to craft. Example: (I don't know how to make "modlets", sorry)

Config\recipes.xml - somewhere in there just add:

<recipe name="cntBookcaseFull" count="1"> <ingredient name="resourceWood" count="10"/> </recipe> <recipe name="cntBookcaseCornerFull" count="1"> <ingredient name="resourceWood" count="10"/> </recipe>

...I didn't look to see if there were any other such blocks. The darker/store-like lootable-bookshelf blocks don't work, since they show as "empty"/book images disappear once clicked on.

I swear I looked there and didn't notice, I'm blind. Does it give you the books image or is just an empty shelf look?

Deleting my recipes again and reloading, the half-block size shelf version in my first "recipe" shows up within Cabinets and when I placed it you could open it/had a couple storage rows.

The corner shelf doesn't appear/not available tho.

Anyway, I'm blind, confirmed. :)

Okay that works, for some reason the first paintable cabinet is just "no loot" so I figured all others would be the same as I hovered over them but not default.

Thought it was in wood furniture.

Wood Furniture has the empty shelves and dressers. Far as I could tell the only furniture with storage is the desk. The only "bookshelf" I noticed with storage is the one n cabinets that looks like it already has books on it, and for some reason defaults to laying down horizontal instead of standing vertical.
