I've tried numerous times to register my items / blocks into the Ore Dictionary with no success. My game just crashes when I run it.

 

Just to get this cleared up right away, isn't this the code you use to add an ore to the dictionary?

OreDictionary.registerOre("oreCopper", oreCopper);

^ Ore Dictionary is at the bottom

That's very weird. Have you tried registering it as a new ItemStack? That shouldn't make a difference, but it doesn't hurt to try.

I've tried it as itemstack just now

OreDictionary.registerOre("oreCopper", new ItemStack(oreCopper, 1, 0));

 

Still crashed for some reason.. Not sure what's going on.

 

Here's the new crash report if you want it:

EDIT:  To make things even weirder I've run one of my older 1.6.4 mods with oredictionary and it works just fine.

OreDictionary.registerOre("nuggetIron", new ItemStack(ironNugget));

Item.getItemFromBlock seems to be returning null.

 

Try registering to the OreDictionary in the init method (the one with the FMLInitializationEvent, rather than the FMLPreInitializationEvent).

 

Wow, you are a life saver. I knew it was probably something stupid like that, turns out if you move it to Init it does work. Thanks!
