[1.9]java.lang.NullPointerException when trying to port to 1.9

[H41V0R]

When I try to port my mod, I get nullpointerException when I try to load a world. Error is here: http://pastebin.com/kSCjZRJD

Minecraft#getRenderViewEntity

is returning

null

for some reason. Does your mod mess with the render view entity at all?

[H41V0R]

I really doubt it, the mod is just a bunch of recipes and items really

The change log shows a couple NPE fixes since build 1887, so there's a chance that updating Forge could help. However, you should first set a few relevant break points and step to the crash in the debugger to see if anything jumps out at you. Find what's null, where it should have been initialized, and then try to see why it wasn't.

 

If neither effort helps, then get ready to post lots of source code.

 

PS: If you don't need examplemod, then get rid of it

Still, error when I load a save

 

Main mod file:

package com.h41v0r.dchem;

public static dchem instance;

 

public static Logger logger;

 

/*@Mod.EventHandler

public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event) {

logger = event.getModLog();

proxy.preInit(event);

}*/

   

    @Mod.EventHandler

    public void init(FMLInitializationEvent event)

    {

}

 

}

Well, for starters, it looks like you've completely commented out your preInit event handler, so it looks like your mod main does nothing.

Its not the mod, I tried w/ a empty src folder and still got the same error

 

EDIT: After trying it in eclipse, it worked. Perhaps I should've mentioned that I was using IDEA
