[1.8] Rendering Projectile? [Solved]

[Ms_Raven]

In a 1.7.10 mod I made a bomb that could be thrown and explodes on impact, and it worked.

However, I'm having trouble updating it to 1.8.

 

When I throw the item after trying to update the code it crashes.

(With this if it matters)

 

I can't find anything about rendering simple thrown projectiles in 1.8 or about updating it to 1.8, and there are still pretty much no YouTube tutorials at all for 1.8 except for simple blocks and items. So I'm kind of at a loss here.

 

Main class:

 

@Mod(modid = Main.MODID, name = Main.NAME, version = Main.VERSION)

public class Main

{

@SidedProxy(clientSide = "apocalypse.publicraft.network.ClientProxy", serverSide = "apocalypse.publicraft.network.CommonProxy")

public static CommonProxy proxy;

 

    public static final String MODID = "publicraft";

    public static final String NAME = "PubliCraft";

    public static final String VERSION = "0.1";

 

    public static final Tabs tabPubliCraft = new Tabs("tabPubliCraft");

   

    public static Generation generation = new Generation();

   

   

   

    @EventHandler

    public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event)

    {

    PubliConfig.init(event);

    ItemReg.register();

    BlockReg.register();

    }

    @EventHandler

    public void init(FMLInitializationEvent event)

    {

    proxy.registerRenders();

    proxy.renderProjectiles();

 

    EntityRegistry.registerModEntity(EntityBomb.class, "Bomb", PubliConfig.bombID(), this, 64, 10, true);

   

    }

    @EventHandler

    public void postInit(FMLPostInitializationEvent event)

    {

   

    }

}

 

 

 

Bomb item:

 

public class Bomb extends Item

{

 

public Bomb()

{

super();

setMaxStackSize(1);

 

}

public ItemStack onItemRightClick(ItemStack stack, World world, EntityPlayer player)

{

if (!player.capabilities.isCreativeMode)

{

--stack.stackSize;

}

 

world.playSoundAtEntity(player, "random.bow", 0.5F, 0.4F / (itemRand.nextFloat() * 0.4F + 0.8F));

 

if (!world.isRemote)

{

world.spawnEntityInWorld(new EntityBomb(world, player));

}

 

return stack;

}

 

}

 

 

 

 

ClientProxy:

 

public class ClientProxy extends CommonProxy

{

@Override

public void registerRenders()

{

ItemReg.render();

BlockReg.render();

}

 

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

@Override

public void renderProjectiles()

{

    RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(EntityBomb.class, new RenderSnowball(Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderManager(), ItemReg.bomb, null));

 

}

}

 

 

 

Item registry:

 

 

public class ItemReg

{

public static Item bomb;

public static void register()

{

bomb = new Bomb().setUnlocalizedName("bomb").setCreativeTab(Main.tabPubliCraft);

GameRegistry.registerItem(bomb, bomb.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5));

}

public static void render()

{

registerRender(bomb);

}

public static void registerRender(Item item)

{

Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher().register(item, 0, new ModelResourceLocation(Main.MODID + ":" + item.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5), "inventory"));

}

}

 

 

 

Could someone please shed some light on why this isn't working?

Firstly remove __OBFID, that's vanilla classes only (From what I've heard)

Secondly I suggest naming your variables to something other than srg names, rather than private final RenderItem field_177083_e; you can call it renderItem or something more understandable. Same with the methods.

 

Lastly either field_177083_e, field_177084_a, or entity is null on line 41. My best guess is that it is entity, add these 3 lines above line 41 to find out which one it is

 

System.out.println("RenderItem " + (field_177083_e == null));
System.out.println("Item " + (field_177084_a == null));
System.out.println("entity " + (entity == null));

[Ms_Raven]

But that IS a Vanilla class...

[61352151511]

Oh derp, So basically you're trying to get your entity to render as a snowball? I wouldn't know what the issue is if it is a vanilla class, unless this happens with vanilla snowballs as well.

[Ms_Raven]

Nope, normal ones are fine...

[Ernio]

No wonder if you are putting NULL to RenderItem:

Code:

public RenderSnowball(RenderManager p_i46137_1_, Item p_i46137_2_, RenderItem p_i46137_3_)

 

You:

new RenderSnowball(Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderManager(), ItemReg.bomb, null)

 

You need to Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem()

 

 

[Ms_Raven]

Ah, thank you, that fixed it.

Setting it to 'null' was what worked in 1.7.10 and it gave no errors in Eclipse so I didn't bother looking at that.
