Entity Modding- ClientProxy and Render class errors

[Anuwa]

Hello,

I am sorry if the topic discussion/location is misleading in any way, this is my first post here.

To the point:

I am trying to create an entity using Eclipse and forge (Minecraft version 1.7.2). I have created the Entity class correctly, as well as registered it, because on test launching I successfully created a white box that panics like heck. I wanted to give it a model, so I followed a tutorial on creating the Render class, the Model class, and editing the ClientProxy class. That is where I am stumped, completely. Basically, when I try to do the RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler code, it errors saying its not applicable.

This is the ClientProxy class:

package anuwa.modGorebiscus.client;

import net.minecraft.entity.Entity;
import cpw.mods.fml.client.registry.RenderingRegistry;
import anuwa.modGorebiscus.EntityGorebiscus;
import anuwa.modGorebiscus.ModelGorebiscus;
import anuwa.modGorebiscus.RenderGorebiscus;
import anuwa.modGorebiscus.ServerProxy;

public class ClientProxy extends ServerProxy {
        
	@Override
	public void registerRenderThings() {
		RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(EntityGorebiscus.class, new RenderGorebiscus(new ModelGorebiscus(), 0.0F));
        }
        
}

 

 

I also have an error in the EntityRender class. For some reason, the last part of code says "Cannot cast from Entity to Entity Gorebiscus"

This is the code:

package anuwa.modGorebiscus;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;
import net.minecraft.client.model.ModelBase;
import net.minecraft.client.renderer.entity.RenderLiving;
import net.minecraft.entity.Entity;
import anuwa.modGorebiscus.EntityGorebiscus;
import net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation;

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public class RenderGorebiscus extends RenderLiving
{
    private static final ResourceLocation mobTextures = new ResourceLocation(Strings.MODID + ":" + "entityGorebiscus");
    private static final String __OBFID = "CL_00000984";

    public RenderGorebiscus(ModelGorebiscus par1ModelGorebiscus, float par2)
    {
        super(par1ModelGorebiscus, par2);
    }

    /**
     * Returns the location of an entity's texture. Doesn't seem to be called unless you call Render.bindEntityTexture.
     */
    protected ResourceLocation getEntityTexture(EntityGorebiscus par1EntityGorebiscus)
    {
        return mobTextures;
    }

    /**
     * Returns the location of an entity's texture. Doesn't seem to be called unless you call Render.bindEntityTexture.
     */
    protected ResourceLocation getEntityTexture(Entity par1Entity)
    {
        return this.getEntityTexture((EntityGorebiscus)par1Entity);
    }
}

 

 

And heres the Entity class just in case:

import net.minecraft.entity.EntityList;
import net.minecraft.entity.EnumCreatureType;
import net.minecraft.world.biome.BiomeGenBase;
import anuwa.modGorebiscus.modGorebiscus;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.EntityRegistry;

public class EntityGorebiscus {

public static void mainRegistry() {
	registerEntity();
}

public static void registerEntity() {

	createEntity(EntityGorebiscusMob.class, "Gorebiscus", 0xFFFFFF, 0x7A0000);

}

public static void createEntity(Class entityClass, String entityName, int solidColor, int spotColor) {
	int randomId = EntityRegistry.findGlobalUniqueEntityId();
	EntityRegistry.registerGlobalEntityID(entityClass, entityName, randomId);
	EntityRegistry.registerModEntity(entityClass, entityName, randomId, modGorebiscus.modInstance, 64, 1, true);
	EntityRegistry.addSpawn(entityClass, 3, 0, 1, EnumCreatureType.creature, BiomeGenBase.plains);
	createEgg(randomId, solidColor, spotColor);
}

private static void createEgg(int randomId, int solidColor, int spotColor) {
	EntityList.entityEggs.put(Integer.valueOf(randomId), new EntityList.EntityEggInfo(randomId, solidColor, spotColor));
}

}

If it helps, the Model class:

The model was made in Techne.

Thank you in advance, and once again, I apologize for anything wrong I did.

Hm... I seem to be just one step ahead of you. I used different methods and got no errors, but my Penguin only renders as a textureless white rectangular prism. Feel free to check out mine to see how to fix your errors. (It's the post right below!)

[Anuwa]

I looked at your post and I don't see how it was fixed.

[jabelar]

Your entity class doesn't seem to extend any Entity class.  That is why you can't cast an Entity to it.

[LazerBeans]

Agreed. My EntityPenguin has the following code:

public class EntityPenguin extends EntityAnimal {

//all of the code here

}
