[ACTUALLY SOLVED] [1.8.9] Trying to override Nether's chunk provider

[Animefan8888]

Could I get the crash report?

[Animefan8888]

Does this method exist in ChunkProvider if not I have an older version of 1.8 I'm viewing.

 

 

public List func_177458_a(EnumCreatureType p_177458_1_, BlockPos p_177458_2_);

Could I get the crash report?

It's crashing due to the Nether being unregistered after it's being added in Dimension helper. So basically it's crashing because the vanilla Nether hasn't been unregistered yet and it's using the same ID as the new one.

The method does exist, but it's changed to:

public List<BiomeGenBase.SpawnListEntry> getPossibleCreatures(EnumCreatureType creatureType, BlockPos pos)

Ok how about we try something, just create a list of your entitys and pass them in there to see if it is getting called.

I have done a similar thing in my mod. I overrode the Nether to allow biomes. Maybe it could help you.

 

Where I replace the WorldProvider:

https://github.com/LogicTechCorp/NetherEx/blob/1.10.2/src/main/java/nex/NetherEx.java#L55

 

WorldProvider class:

ChunkProvider class:

I've attempted to do the same thing, but ObfuscationReflectionHelper and DimensionType don't exist in 1.8.9. Is there some sort of alternative?

[Animefan8888]

No those were added in a later version.

[Dizzlepop12]

Is there a way to set the BiomeDictionary type for a specific biome ID?

[Choonster]

ObfuscationReflectionHelper

definitely exists in 1.8.9.

DimensionType

was added in 1.9, the 1.8.9 equivalent is

DimensionManager#registerProviderType

.

 

Use

BiomeDictionary#registerBiomeType

to register one or more

Type

s for a

BiomeGenBase

.

[Animefan8888]

He is trying to get spawnable entities in Nether biomes, and add his own to that list.

[Dizzlepop12]

I tried using BiomeDictionary.registerBiomeType(new BiomeGenHell( 8 ), Type.NETHER); to set the biome ID to use the Nether biome type, but to no avail.

Why are you creating a new instance of

BiomeGenHell

instead of using the existing one stored in

BiomeGenBase#hell

? Looking at

BiomeDictionary

, this is already registered with

Type.NETHER

by default.

Okay, this fixed the issue. Thanks so much! I also removed the unregisterDimension and registerDimension lines because they were unnecessary.
