Hello,

I am making a mod for Minecraft 1.8 and am wondering why I cannot create multiple mobs using my method..

The problem is that in my common proxy only the first "Entity Creator" is being read/used (Only Spartan Soldier is implemented into game but when order is switched around only Samurai is being implemented)

 

Here is my Common Proxy:

 

 

 

package adamisaac.empiresmod.proxy;

 

import net.minecraft.entity.EnumCreatureType;

import net.minecraft.world.biome.BiomeGenBase;

import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.event.FMLInitializationEvent;

import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.event.FMLPostInitializationEvent;

import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.event.FMLPreInitializationEvent;

import adamisaac.empiresmod.EntityCreator;

import adamisaac.empiresmod.empireEntity.EntitySamurai;

import adamisaac.empiresmod.empireEntity.EntitySpartanSoldier;

import adamisaac.empiresmod.empireRender.RenderSamurai;

import adamisaac.empiresmod.empireRender.RenderSpartanSoldier;

import adamisaac.empiresmod.init.EmpiresModItems;

 

public class CommonProxy  {

public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent e) {

 

EmpiresModItems.createItems();

 

//ModBlocks.createBlocks();

}

 

public void init(FMLInitializationEvent e) {

 

 

 

EntityCreator.createMob(EntitySpartanSoldier.class, new RenderSpartanSoldier(), "SpartanSoldier", EnumCreatureType.MONSTER, 10, 0, 5, new BiomeGenBase[] {BiomeGenBase.desert}, 0xFF00FB, 0xD69D00, true);

EntityCreator.createMob(EntitySamurai.class, new RenderSamurai(), "Samurai", EnumCreatureType.MONSTER, 10, 0, 5, new BiomeGenBase[] {BiomeGenBase.desert}, 0xFF00FB, 0xD69D00, true);

 

//ModCrafting.initCrafting();

;

}

 

public void postInit(FMLPostInitializationEvent e) {

 

}

}

 

 

 

Here is my method class:

 

 

 

package adamisaac.empiresmod;

import net.minecraft.client.renderer.entity.Render;

import net.minecraft.entity.EntityList;

import net.minecraft.entity.EnumCreatureType;

import net.minecraft.world.biome.BiomeGenBase;

import net.minecraftforge.fml.client.registry.RenderingRegistry;

import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.registry.EntityRegistry;

public class EntityCreator {

 

public static void createMob(Class entityClass, Render render, String entityName, EnumCreatureType type, int probability, int minSpawn, int maxSpawn, BiomeGenBase [] biomes, int solidColor, int spotColor, boolean hasSpawnEgg){

int id = EntityRegistry.findGlobalUniqueEntityId();

EntityRegistry.registerGlobalEntityID(entityClass, entityName, id);

EntityRegistry.registerModEntity(entityClass, entityName, solidColor, EmpiresMod.instance, 64, 1, true);

EntityRegistry.addSpawn(entityName, probability, minSpawn, maxSpawn, type, biomes);

RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(entityClass, render);

 

if (hasSpawnEgg) {

EntityList.entityEggs.put(Integer.valueOf(id), new EntityList.EntityEggInfo(id, solidColor, spotColor));

}

 

 

}

}

 

 

 

Any help would be appreciated!

I dont know why it is not working, but a Proxy is not the place to place events. You should move them to your Main modding class.

Right, had it in the main class before, but wasn't working so I decided to throw it in my Proxy in desperation 

 

It is in my main class now, but still isn't working.. Any ideas?

Remove the events from your proxies.

@EventHandler
   public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent e) {
      proxy.preInit(e);
      
   }

 

What belongs in your proxies is this

if(event.getSide().isClient())
        {
            ModelBakery.addVariantName(EmpiresModItems.egyptianBow, new String[] {"ep:textures/items/egyptianBow_standby.png", "ep:textures/items/egyptianBow_pulling_0.png", "ep:textures/items/egyptianBow_pulling_1.png", "ep:textures/items/egyptianBow_pulling_2.png"});

             registerItem(EmpiresModItems.egyptianBow, 0, "ep:textures/items/egyptianBow_standby.png");
             registerItem(EmpiresModItems.egyptianBow, 1, "ep:textures/items/egyptianBow_pulling_0.png");
             registerItem(EmpiresModItems.egyptianBow, 2, "ep:textures/items/egyptianBow_pulling_1.png");
             registerItem(EmpiresModItems.egyptianBow, 3, "ep:textures/items/egyptianBow_pulling_2.png");
        }

Read a tutorial how and why to use proxies. After thats cleaned up move back to entities

 

Thank you for your responses, I had already removed the events from my proxy, and okay thank you for the bow section. I am working on this mod with a friend and he created all the proxies/ has a good understanding of them. I got him to clean everything up so now our main class is pretty clean but neither of us know why it is only creating one of the two mobs..

EDIT

I fooled around a bit more duplicating the EntityCreator class naming it EntityCreator1 and the method createMob1 to see if there was something wrong with my EntityCreator class, but have discovered that it is in fact just that the code below the first EntitCreator line isnt being read in init...

Here is where I believe the problem is"

 

 

 

@EventHandler

public void init(FMLInitializationEvent e) {

 

EntityCreator.createMob(EntitySpartanSoldier.class, new RenderSpartanSoldier(), "SpartanSoldier", EnumCreatureType.MONSTER, 10, 0, 5, new BiomeGenBase[] {BiomeGenBase.desert}, 0xFF00FB, 0xD69D00, true);

 

EntityCreator.createMob(EntitySamurai.class, new RenderSamurai(), "Samurai", EnumCreatureType.MONSTER, 10, 0, 5, new BiomeGenBase[] {BiomeGenBase.desert}, 0xFF00FB, 0xD69D00, true);

proxy.init(e);

 

}

 

 

Anyone?
