Hi,

I managed to create inventory for my mob, it is simillar to horse.

But there is one problem. I dont know how to open it, I tried to use method player.displayGUIChest(), but after that my gui looks like chest.Horse gui use method: displayGUIHorse(), but I cant use it due to different entity class.

What method should I use to display my gui?

 

Thanks for fast reply.

I have my own GuiHandler ,but do I realy need it for my gui when it is opening from another gui?

 

http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,21001.msg106575.html#msg106575

Thanks, should I use client and server or only client side gui element?

For server you should return your Container, for client - your GuiContainer.

I get an error when I open my gui.

In server side, again NPE

Entity entity = world.getEntityByID(x);

Now I try to use SimpleNetworkWrapper as MultiMote suggested me.

 

 

 

He suggested me to do it in PM.

The code is mostly from MultiMode to make it only working

Maybe all code for inventory and error log will help.

 

public class InventoryVillager extends InventoryBasic
{
    public InventoryVillager(String name, int slots)
    {
        super(name, false, slots);

When I open gui by button the game crashes.

I can see for a while gui screen. Then crash occure.

It says sth about forge error.

I know that is a lot of code but I will be very thankful if someone help me 

 

 

 

 

 

What do you mean by normal GuiHandler?

Message received on the server. He has button in gui that opens entity inventory.

Sorry, it is not very visible and clearly by:

Code from another gui, in method actionPerformed(GuiButton guiButton)

I thinks the same, alse the line with .getEntityByID() is wrong.

Is any other way to choose entity?

Have you some suggestions or tips how to make it working?

Can someone help just a bit?

Still doesnt work.

Do you know some tutorials or sollution?

 

Solved.

It was my fault.

I made a mistake.

Thanks for help.
