I'm a beginner at Minecraft Modding, and I was looking at this answer here:

 

 

 

I'm stuck on this step right here:

Create a public static void method, and subscribe it to the Register<Block> event.

I'm trying to do that, and here is my method:

@SubscribeEvent
	public static void registerBlocks(Register<Block> event){}

I haven't added in the code inside the method yet, but the compiler gives an error at the Register<Block> part. Here's my error: The type Tcp.Register is not generic; it cannot be parameterized with arguments <Block> Then, it gives a suggestion to remove the type parameter.

 

What can I do?

 

I'm using Eclipse, and I'm coding in Minecraft 1.11

You're using the wrong Register class (Tcp.Register), while you should be using RegistryEvent.Register.

 

Also, because the RegistryEvents  are called before preInit, you should annotate the class with @EventBusSubscriber,  so the class actually gets registered.

Wrong information, my bad

I am pretty sure he needs to both annotate the class with EventBusSubscriber and methods with SubscribeEvent. EventBusSubscriber just tells forge to perform EVENT_BUS.register(TheClass.class), you still need SubscribeEvent to actually tell forge what methods to use as listeners.

You're right, I'll edit my answer.
