Posted March 30, 20169 yr I was trying to add custom tooltips for vanilla items using the ItemTooltipEvent but I keep getting "field has private access in SomethingEvent" whenever I try accessing any field of the event. I tried some 1.8 event handler tutorials but with no success either. All the other handler methods keep throwing the same error. Handler class is called TooltipHandler registered from CommonProxy in init() on MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS Forge version: 12.16.0.1813 https://gist.github.com/Cendrb/e20f364cc32d239aec594d2f83aa1e12 Is this just because of the beta state of Forge or am I doing something wrong?
March 30, 20169 yr Most event fields were made private with public getters in 1.9-12.16.0.1805. Use the getters. Please don't PM me to ask for help. Asking your question in a public thread preserves it for people who are having the same problem in the future.
March 30, 20169 yr Author I somehow managed to get my Forge version out of sync with the IDE (idea) files. IDE showed the fields were public and there were no getter methods but gradle didn't want compile it because it was on a different version. After deleting everything and setting the workspace up again it works. Thanks
March 31, 20169 yr After every Forge update, make sure to run gradlew eclipse to set the workspace up with the new Forge version. Else, you get desynch issues like you had. Don't PM me with questions. They will be ignored! Make a thread on the appropriate board for support. 1.12 -> 1.13 primer by williewillus. 1.7.10 and older versions of Minecraft are no longer supported due to it's age! Update to the latest version for support. http://www.howoldisminecraft1710.today/
