I got this during a crash in Eclipse when I attempted to move onto the second page of tabs:

 

Time: 5/6/14 4:19 PM

Description: Rendering item

 

java.lang.NullPointerException: Rendering item

I honestly cannot figure out how to fix it. I know it has something to do with the item on the tab label. I am using Forge

1.7.2-10.12.1.1060 if it helps. Here also is the code for my tab and every reference to it:

 

 

package com.gmail.eanwowmaster;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;
import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.init.Blocks;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;

public class EancraftTabs extends CreativeTabs {

public EancraftTabs(String tabLabel) {
	super(tabLabel);
}

@Override
@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public Item getTabIconItem() {
	return Item.getItemFromBlock(new EanOre(Material.rock));
}
}

public static CreativeTabs eancraftTab = new EancraftTabs("Eancraft");

	setCreativeTab(Eancraft.eancraftTab);

(I didn't put the code directly above in several times because it would be a waste of my typing and your reading)

 

 

Can anybody help me? I honestly have no idea how to fix it. I am new to Forge modding and this is my first mod, so I'm not surprised I can't fix this error.

return Item.getItemFromBlock(new EanOre(Material.rock));

You need to return a registered item or block. That new stuff isn't registered, Minecraft can't render it.

Replace with an instance you made and registered in the FMLPreInitialization event.

Thank you, but I got the same error after changing the code to an instance of EanOre. The new code is:

 

 

package com.gmail.eanwowmaster;

 

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;

import net.minecraft.init.Blocks;

import net.minecraft.item.Item;

import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;

 

public class EancraftTabs extends CreativeTabs {

 

public EancraftTabs(String lable) {

super(lable);

}

 

@Override

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

public Item getTabIconItem() {

return Item.getItemFromBlock(Eancraft.eanOre);

}

}

 

 

I honestly thought that would fix it. Well, is there actually a way to fix it?

You may want to check that Eancraft.eanOre is really not null. Use a breakpoint if possible.

The creative tab also needs at least an item or block to render inside its slots.

I just ran it with a breakpoint and it is null... so how am I supposed to make it not null? BTW, it has items in it. EXAMPLE:

 

 

package com.gmail.eanwowmaster;

import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.world.World;
import net.minecraft.potion.PotionEffect;

public class Sushi extends Item {

protected Sushi() {
	setCreativeTab(Eancraft.eancraftTab);
	setUnlocalizedName("Sushi");
	setTextureName("eancraft:Sushi");
	setMaxStackSize(64);
}

public ItemStack onEaten(ItemStack itemStack, World world, EntityPlayer player) {
	player.addExhaustion(4.0F);
	player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(9, 1, 1));
	player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(5, 2, 1));
	return itemStack;
}
}

I can't tell why it would be null. I mean, just look at this beauty! How could it ever be null?!

Yeah, the mod ID was me forgetting to change it when I changed the MODID. The rest was me messing around to try and fix the error. It still crashes with the same error, though. D=

Okay, I found this in the console while it was starting up the client; I'm not sure why it can't read the image, though...:

I can tell you how i have mine set up maby it will help.

 

Use a separate class for your tab mine looks like this:

(change TolkienTab to whatever you want your tab class to be called)

 

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import tolkienaddon.items.ModItems;
             
public class TolkienTab extends CreativeTabs {
public TolkienTab(final int id, final String modid) {
	super(id, modid);
}

@Override
public Item getTabIconItem()
{
	return ModItems.tclogo; //if you cant get your custom block/item to work try a vanilla block/item e.g. Items.diamond
}
}

 

And in your main class put:

private static CreativeTabs tolkienTab = new TolkienTab(CreativeTabs.getNextID(), References.MODID);

Then to add something to the tab use:

this.setCreativeTab(Tolkienaddon.getCreativeTab());

note: Tolkienaddon is the name of my main class

I've now discovered that the error is in the fact that ImageIO can't read the file. I can't see why, though. It has the correct directory and file name, so I'm not sure why it's not working.

We need the most recent version of your main class, if this isn't the one already.

If it is, the item and block initializing still needs to be put into FMLPreInit, that is how you get textures working.

That seemed to be the problem... Now I'm getting a NullPointerException at

cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.EntityRegistry.doModEntityRegistration(/*whatever parameters are here*/)

 

It still can't read the file for some reason. I can probably fix the NullPointerException, though.

I just decided to use the Vanilla tabs for my items, but if you can fix this, please tell me!

 

	public static Block anvilOre = new AnvilOre(Material.rock);
public static Block eanOre = new EanOre(Material.rock);
public static CreativeTabs eancraftTab = new EancraftTabs(CreativeTabs.getNextID(), "Eancraft");

Although EanOre is defined here, it is not registered, and is exactly the same as what you had before.

 

I have no experience with creative tabs, but try this:

public static Block anvilOre;
public static Block eanOre;

 

@EventHandle
public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent evt) {

        eanOre = new EanOre(Material.rock);
        GameRegistry.registerBlock(eanOre, eanOre.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5));
        eancraftTab = new EancraftTabs(CreativeTabs.getNextID(), "Eancraft");
        eanOre.setCreativeTab(eancraftTab);
        anvilOre = new AnvilOre(Material.rock);
        anvilSword = new AnvilSword();
        sushi = new Sushi();
	GameRegistry.registerBlock(anvilOre, anvilOre.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5));

	GameRegistry.registerItem(anvilSword, anvilSword.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5));
	GameRegistry.registerItem(sushi, sushi.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5));
	registerEntity(Ean.class, "ean", 5, 17);
	proxy.registerRenderers();
