It's the first time I try to manufacture custom particles. First, I tried tutorials on the internet, then I started copying known mods, but none worked, all with the same problem:

"Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to load description for particle modcraft:ice_particles"

Apparently, the problem is in RegisterParticleProvidersEvent registration which is Deprecated. Does anyone know an alternative way to register particles?

here is my classes:

 

Main Class:

Spoiler

@Mod("modcraft")
@Mod.EventBusSubscriber(
        modid = "modcraft"
)
public class ModCraft
{
    public static final String MOD_ID = "modcraft";
    //public static final Logger LOGGER = LogUtils.getLogger();
    public static final Logger LOGGER = LogManager.getLogger();

    public ModCraft()
    {
        IEventBus modEventBus = FMLJavaModLoadingContext.get().getModEventBus();

        //modEventBus.addListener(this::setupClient);

        ModItems.ITEMS.register(modEventBus);
        ModEntityTypes.ENTITY_TYPES.register(modEventBus);
        ModEnchantments.ENCHANTMENT.register(modEventBus);
        ModParticles.PARTICLE_TYPES.register(modEventBus);


        modEventBus.addListener(this::commonSetup);
        MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(this);
    }

   (.... ) 

Class to register all new particles:

Spoiler

public class ModParticles {
    public static final DeferredRegister<ParticleType<?>> PARTICLE_TYPES =
            DeferredRegister.create(ForgeRegistries.PARTICLE_TYPES, ModCraft.MOD_ID);

    public static final RegistryObject<SimpleParticleType> ICE_PARTICLES =
            PARTICLE_TYPES.register("ice_particles", () -> new SimpleParticleType(false));


}

 

Customized Particle Class:

Spoiler

public class IceParticle extends TextureSheetParticle {
    protected IceParticle(ClientLevel level, double xCoord, double yCoord, double zCoord,
                          SpriteSet spriteSet, double xd, double yd, double zd) {
        super(level, xCoord, yCoord, zCoord, xd, yd, zd);

        this.friction = 0.8F;
        this.xd = xd;
        this.yd = yd;
        this.zd = zd;
        this.quadSize *= 0.85F;
        this.lifetime = 20;
        this.setSpriteFromAge(spriteSet);

        this.rCol = 1f;
        this.gCol = 1f;
        this.bCol = 1f;
    }

    @Override
    public void tick() {
        super.tick();
        fadeOut();
    }

    private void fadeOut() {
        this.alpha = (-(1/(float)lifetime) * age + 1);
    }

    @Override
    public ParticleRenderType getRenderType() {
        return ParticleRenderType.TERRAIN_SHEET;
    }

    //@OnlyIn(Dist.CLIENT)
    public static class Provider implements ParticleProvider<SimpleParticleType> {
        private final SpriteSet sprites;

        public Provider(SpriteSet spriteSet) {
            this.sprites = spriteSet;
        }

        public Particle createParticle(SimpleParticleType particleType, ClientLevel level,
                                       double x, double y, double z,
                                       double dx, double dy, double dz) {
            return new IceParticle(level, x, y, z, this.sprites, dx, dy, dz);
        }
    }
}

 

 Register Event Class

Spoiler

public class ClientEvents {


    @Mod.EventBusSubscriber(modid = ModCraft.MOD_ID, value = Dist.CLIENT, bus = Mod.EventBusSubscriber.Bus.MOD)
    public static class ClientModBusEvents {

		@SubscribeEvent
        public static void registerParticleFactories(RegisterParticleProvidersEvent event) {
            //Minecraft.getInstance().particleEngine.register(ModParticles.PIERCE_PARTICLES.get(), PierceParticle.Provider::new);
            event.register((ParticleType) ModParticles.ICE_PARTICLES.get(), IceParticle.Provider::new);
        }

	}
}

 

 

Could you tell me where the error is?
Minecraft 1.19.2 .

It isn't if you're using the event register method, which you are. The failed to load description means it couldn't open the particle json or an error occurred while reading it. Do you have a particle json with the textures in the correct location and you are currently not viewing the file in a text editor of some sort?

Thank you, it really worked!

My goodness what a silly mistake. But I thought that an error like this wouldn't prevent it from booting. I've messed up json names before, but this has never happened.
