As far as I have been able to diagnose, this is the result of replacing all of the stone blocks at worldgen with a custom block that renders in both passes.

 

If I don't do the replacement: no crash (and I can place the block in the word by hand just fine)

If I don't render the block in both passes: no crash (but it doesn't look right)

 

Thoughts?

[coolAlias]

Does this only happen right at world start up?

 

Can you get it to crash if you place a lot of your blocks by hand, perhaps all bunched together in say a 5x5x5 or larger cube?

 

Have you tried putting a break point in there to see what the Tessellator and renderer states are at that point?

 

I suppose the worst case scenario is you surround the second render pass in a try/catch.

Correct.

 

Can you get it to crash if you place a lot of your blocks by hand, perhaps all bunched together in say a 5x5x5 or larger cube?

 

I've previously hand-built some really large structures with this block.  And prior to genericizing it (so that I could pass a Block to its constructor and it would use the original block's name and texture, returning a new block that looks like it, but has its own behavior) I was able to generate the block into the world.  When I turned it into a generic I ended up with an accidental bug that prevented it from replacing the original and I didn't notice for a while.  Once I fixed that, I got this crash.

 

Have you tried putting a break point in there to see what the Tessellator and renderer states are at that point?

 

No, and I'll be frank.  I haven't used break-point debugging in over a decade.  :\

I gave it a stab and all I know is that Tesselator#TesselatorVertexState is called and PriorityQueue's first parameter is Tesselator.rawBufferIndex, which has a value of 0.

 

I suppose the worst case scenario is you surround the second render pass in a try/catch.

 

...except that that is all vanilla.  I even completely commented out my renderWorldBlock method in my ISBRH and it still crashes.

Wait a second, if it's a custom block, how is it all vanilla? If you tell it to render a vanilla block but make it run 2 render passes on that vanilla block, that would probably explain why it's crashing - most vanilla blocks don't expect that 2nd pass.

 

I assume you have a reason for wanting that 2nd pass on a vanilla block overlay, but I'm not sure how you can get around that. Not that you need an example, but I have a block that can render as most vanilla blocks; thing is, it only uses the first render pass.

 

How are you managing to do so without a custom renderer?

[TheGreyGhost]

Hi

 

It looks to me like you have told vanilla "I am going to render something in this pass" but then you never actually added any vertices to the Tessellator in that pass.  So when it gets to the end and tries to draw it, there is nothing to draw (i.e. Tessellator.rawBufferIndex equals zero).

I mean that if I wrap my render code in a try...catch it still crashes, and I can't go up any higher because that calling code is in vanilla.

	@Override
public boolean renderWorldBlock(IBlockAccess world, int x, int y, int z, Block block, int modelId, RenderBlocks renderer) {
	renderer.renderStandardBlock(block, x, y, z);

	return true;
}

 

Its all handled by the getIcon(...) methods at that point.

[praryboy]

This is a bit of a necro, so I assume you've solved the problem already, but for posterity I'm going to post my solution and description of the problem.

 

The issue you're running into is https://github.com/MinecraftForge/MinecraftForge/issues/981

It's been closed and labeled as "not my problem" but as far as I understand it, it IS a forge bug, or at least a propagation of a vanilla bug. As of build 1448, anyway,looks like it was fixed in later builds

 

Apparently, if a block is rendering in the alpha pass, but is surrounded on all sides by opaque blocks, the tessellator is passed no vertices, which results in a crash. The methods in Block that determine whether a block renders on the second pass, canRenderInPass and getRenderBlockPass can't be passed coordinates, and as such will always return true on the alpha pass, if you intend to do so.

 

In the render code itself you can check all the sides of the block, or tell a block/tileentity to do it for you, although that can be pretty expensive and really shouldn't be necessary. If you can render the first pass when the block is completely hidden, I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to render the second. A quick, hacky workaround is simply to pass some dummy vertices to the tessellator when you call the render. for example in your code

@Override
public boolean renderWorldBlock(IBlockAccess world, int x, int y, int z, Block block, int modelId, RenderBlocks renderer) {

            Tessellator t = Tessellator.instance;
            for(int i = 0; i<8; i++)
            {
                t.addVertex(0,0,0);
            }
	renderer.renderStandardBlock(block, x, y, z);

	return true;
}

 

If there is a better answer I welcome someone to correct me, but this is what I've found.
