Setting Creative Tab

[GravityWolf]

Hi, I am having setting items in my creative tab using the tutorial on the wiki. I define my tab, then when I try to set it in my item class, it can't recognize it. Here is my mod file:

 

package NoctusRealm;

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraftforge.common.MinecraftForge;
import NoctusRealm.Items.ItemDragonSword;
import NoctusRealm.Items.Items;
import NoctusRealm.References.CommonProxy;
import NoctusRealm.References.ModInfo;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.EventHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.SidedProxy;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPostInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPreInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.NetworkMod;

@Mod(modid = ModInfo.ID, name = ModInfo.NAME, version = ModInfo.VERSION)
@NetworkMod(channels = {ModInfo.CHANNEL}, clientSideRequired = true, serverSideRequired = true)

public class NoctusRealm {

public static CreativeTabs tabNoctusRealm = new CreativeTabs("NoctusRealm") {
        public ItemStack getIconItemStack() {
                return new ItemStack(Items.DragonSword, 1, 0);
        }
};

@SidedProxy(clientSide = ModInfo.PROXYLOCATION + ".ClientProxy", serverSide = ModInfo.PROXYLOCATION + ".CommonProxy")
public static CommonProxy proxy;

@EventHandler
public static void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event) {

	proxy.initRenders();
	proxy.initSounds();
	Items.init();
	MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(new ItemDragonSword.DragonFallEvent());

}

@EventHandler
public static void init(FMLInitializationEvent event) {



}

@EventHandler
public static void postInit(FMLPostInitializationEvent event) {



}

}

 

And my item file

 

package NoctusRealm.Items;

import java.util.List;

import net.minecraft.client.renderer.texture.IconRegister;
import net.minecraft.entity.EntityLivingBase;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.item.EnumToolMaterial;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemSword;
import net.minecraft.util.MathHelper;
import net.minecraft.world.World;
import net.minecraftforge.event.ForgeSubscribe;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.living.LivingFallEvent;
import NoctusRealm.References.Names;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;

public class ItemDragonSword extends ItemSword {

public ItemDragonSword(int id, EnumToolMaterial material) {

	super(id, material);
	this.setUnlocalizedName(Names.DragonSwordUnlocalizedName);
	this.setCreativeTabs(NoctusRealm.tabNoctusRealm);

}

@Override
public ItemStack onItemRightClick(ItemStack itemStack, World world, EntityPlayer player) {

		double calculatedX = 5 * (double) (-MathHelper.sin(player.rotationYaw/ 180.0F * (float) Math.PI)* MathHelper.cos(player.rotationPitch / 180.0F* (float) Math.PI) * 0.4f);
		double calculatedZ = 5 * (double) (MathHelper.cos(player.rotationYaw	/ 180.0F * (float) Math.PI)* MathHelper.cos(player.rotationPitch / 180.0F* (float) Math.PI) * 0.4f);
		double calculatedY = 2.5 * (double) (-MathHelper.sin((player.rotationPitch)/ 180.0F * (float) Math.PI) * 0.4f);
		player.motionY = calculatedY;
		player.motionX = calculatedX;
		player.motionZ = calculatedZ;	

	return itemStack;

}

public static class DragonFallEvent
{
	@ForgeSubscribe
	public void fallEvent(LivingFallEvent event)
	{
		EntityLivingBase player =  event.entityLiving;

		ItemStack stack = player.getHeldItem();
		if(stack != null && stack.getItem() == Items.DragonSword)

			event.setCanceled(true);

	}

}

@Override
@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public void registerIcons(IconRegister icon) {

	itemIcon = icon.registerIcon("nr" + ":" + "dragonsword");

}

public boolean hasEffect(ItemStack itemstack)
{
        return true;
}

@Override
    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    public void addInformation (ItemStack stack, EntityPlayer player, List list, boolean par4)
    {
        list.add("Two-Handed");
    }
}

 

I get the error under

 

this.setCreativeTabs(NoctusRealm.tabNoctusRealm);

Remove the S from the end of tabs:

this.setCreativeTab(blah)

Still can't resolve NoctusRealm.tabNoctusRealm

When extending ItemSword you cannot assign CreativeTab. What you can do is extend Item and then copy ItemSword code to it (since ItemSword extends Item it will be the same). About this ,,you cannot" - I am not sure, but after 1h of going through code I cannot get it working too. Its probably bug or you need to find some special method to do it - I realy don't know but I know that there are many who can't get it working either.

Of course you can, it is a setter. 

Just put

public final  static CreativeTabs...

Got it to work, take a look at some Natura source. Look at Natura.java, NaturaTab.java, and any item. Basically making a new class for the tab.b

He is already doing that, tabNoctusRealm is an internal class of NoctusRealm class.
