[1.6.4] How to create a mob?

[Pandassaurus]

Hi,

So I found code online to create a new mob, and in the video as well as my other mod it worked, but for some reason, it's not in this one.

 

main class:

 

 package com.Pandassaurus.WTHMod;

                        */

    public static int startEntityId = 300;

    public static int getUniqueEntityId() {
        do {
            startEntityId++;
        }
        while (EntityList.getStringFromID(startEntityId) != null);
        return startEntityId++;
    }

    public static void registerEntityEgg(Class<? extends Entity> entity, int primaryColor, int secondaryColor) {
        int id = getUniqueEntityId();
        EntityList.IDtoClassMapping.put(id, entity);
        EntityList.entityEggs.put(id, new EntityEggInfo(id, primaryColor, secondaryColor));

*Update*

 

It turns out my Entity class was declared abstract, and i fixed that. It seemed to help a bit, but when i use the spawn egg, nothing happens; no errors or no mob spawning. I don't know why, but if you do, please let me know.

 

thanks,

RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(EntityPedophileMob.class, new RenderPedophileMob(new PedophileMob(), 0.3F));

 

Your missing your model, you are trying to pass an instance of your mob as the model which does nothing.

Oh sorry, I forgot to add the model class:

*Update*

 

Apparently the mob is spawning now, but is still invisible. I think it has something to do with the rendering stuff.

Your mob should look black and purple because your pointing to a (mostly likely) non-existant texture at assets/modid/textures/mobs/PedophileMob.png instead of assets/wthmod/textures/mobs/PedophileMob.png

[iwishiwasgood]

Ctrl+F shows me that you're missing

Minecraft.theWorld.spawnEntityInWorld(yourEntityObject);

Would this be correct?

 

Also, be sure you're setting a location for your entity!

I do have the texture, but even if i didn't, but instead of there being a white or purple and black box, it's just invisible.

This is the class path of the picture:

I am missing that, but is that necessary? In my other mod that I am trying i didn't need it. If so, where would i put it?

Also, what do you mean by setting a location for my entity?

 

I'm sorry, im new to modding, so thanks for the help!

I currently use spawnEntityinWorld, perhaps there is another method, I'm not sure, new to this as well

BUT as for the location say you have your entity pandasauruss

 
EntityPandasauruss pandasauruss = new EntityPandasauruss(Minecraft.theWorld);
pandasauruss.setPositionAndUpdate(player.posX, player.posY, player.posZ);

The player.posX, etc. would change to be where your egg landed but same concept. Perhaps that will work for you.

no, that didn't work for me.

 

thanks though,

*Update*

 

I think it has something to do with either the render class or the proxies because I moved the mob classes over to my mod that worked and it worked perfectly. I really can't find a difference, and it'd be great if someone could help.

 

thanks,
