[1.8] Custom Biome Not Spawning

[AnonymousModder]

EDIT: No matter what number I put, I can't find my biome anywhere. What am I doing wrong?

 

I created a simple custom biome and I couldn't find it, so I changed some numbers so now the spawn rate is 100%. I still cannot find my biome.

I think I may have done something wrong, but I do not know what.

 

Here's my BiomeRegistry code:

	public static BiomeGenBase enchanted_forest;

public static void init(){

	enchanted_forest = new BiomeEnchantedForest(341).setBiomeName("enchanted_forest");

}

public static void register(){

	BiomeDictionary.registerBiomeType(enchanted_forest, Type.FOREST);
	BiomeEntry enchantedForestEntry = new BiomeEntry(enchanted_forest, 100);
	BiomeManager.addBiome(BiomeType.WARM, enchantedForestEntry);

}

 

Here's my EnchantedForestBiome code

public class BiomeEnchantedForest extends BiomeGenBase{

public BiomeEnchantedForest(int p_i1971_1_) {
	super(p_i1971_1_);

	this.spawnableCreatureList.add(new SpawnListEntry(MobGnomeMob.class, 30, 2, 10));
      this.theBiomeDecorator.treesPerChunk = 5;
      this.theBiomeDecorator.waterlilyPerChunk = 5;
      this.theBiomeDecorator.reedsPerChunk = 100;
      this.theBiomeDecorator.sandPerChunk2 = 20;
      this.theBiomeDecorator.generateLakes = true;
      this.theBiomeDecorator.grassPerChunk = 25;
      this.theBiomeDecorator.bigMushroomsPerChunk = 2;
      	      
   }
}

setting the second argument to 100 does not mean 100%

Oh, well what number should I put so I can almost instantly find my biome?

[AnonymousModder]

No matter what number I put, I can't find my biome anywhere. What am I doing wrong?

[Choonster]

Are you definitely calling

BiomeRegistry.init

and

BiomeRegistry.register

?

 

Override

BiomeGenBase#genTerrainBlocks

to call the super method and put a breakpoint in it. When the breakpoint is hit, take note of the x and z coordinates.

Am I supposed to put something like ModBiomes.init() and ModBiomes.register() my main class?

[Choonster]

Yes, you should call them in the preInit phase from your

@Mod

class. If you don't call them anywhere, how do you expect the biomes to be registered?

[AnonymousModder]

I had tried that, but Minecraft crashes whenever I open it. It appears to be in the init() method. Do you see anything wrong with it?

Did you try looking at line 192 of

BiomeGenBase

to see what could be throwing the exception? I suspect it's being thrown because you used an ID of 765, but the

BiomeList.biomeList

array (where every biome is stored using its ID as the index) is only 256 long.

THat was the problem! Thannk you!
