[1.9] Brand new modder, looking for some help updating an old mod.

[NictraSavios]

There is a mod that I decided to update to 1.9 as a learning exercise to get my feet wet with minecraft modding.

 

I currently get these errors when I compile:

I've managed to track down most the errors before this, but these all seem to be about changes to the code.

 

I don't just want someone to tell me the changes I need to make, I'd also like to learn how to figure it out for myself.

Any help is apprciated!

These are mostly classes that have been renamed in recent versions. You can search the issues of this repository for the old class name to find out what it was renamed to. This will work for most classes that were renamed in 1.9, but may not work for earlier versions.

 

• AxisAlignedBB#fromBounds

  was removed when the class's constructor was made public. Use the constructor instead of

  fromBounds

  .
  

• Vanilla removed the

  WorldProvider#dimensionId

  field and its getter method in 1.9 and replaced them with the

  DimensionType

  enum and the

  WorldProvider#getDimensionType

  method. Forge re-adds the

  WorldProvider#dimensionId

  field, but the getter is now called

  getDimension

  instead of

  getDimensionId

  .
  

• WorldRenderer

  was renamed to

  VertexBuffer

  , so

  Tessellator#getWorldRenderer

  was renamed to

  Tessellator#getBuffer

  .
  

• MCPBot tells me that the SRG name of

  StructureStart#getComponents

  in 1.9 is

  func_186161_c

  and it was given the name

  getComponents

  two days after Forge's default 1.9 MCP mappings were generated. Either use the SRG name or update your mappings.
  

• MinecraftServer.getServer

  is no longer a static method. There are several methods that you can use to get the

  MinecraftServer

  instance now, use IDEA's Find Usages (or Eclipse's equivalent) feature to search for methods with return type

  MinecraftServer

  . In particular, you can use

  World#getMinecraftServer

  on a server-side

  World

  or

  FMLCommonHandler#getMinecraftServerInstance

  (prefer using the

  World

  method when possible).
  

• ServerConfigurationManager

  was renamed to

  PlayerList

  , so

  MinecraftServer#getConfigurationManager

  was renamed to

  MinecraftServer#getPlayerList

  . The

  PlayerList#playerEntityList

  field is now private, use the

  PlayerList#getPlayerList

  method to get it.
