1.12 Vanishing painting clone basics

Stroam · June 29, 2017

So I'm making a painting clone that vanishes after a certain time. I modified the vanilla class but I'm having a very difficult time figuring out how register this with forge so that it shows up. Examples I've looked at are depreciated and the vanilla classes are don't really help with that as far as I know. Here's what I got so far. I know Render needs to shed some code but this was first pass through and didn't want to break anything I needed.

I think I've solved it thanks to

Oh. Hanging entities. Vanilla made those a pain in the ass because EntityHanging itself is responsible for deciding which entity actually gets spawned.

You're better off replicating (virtually) all of EntityHanging for your painting clone.

Stroam · June 29, 2017

Oh ho! Thanks for the info.

I'm having such a difficult time trying to do things right with all the changes. I will do as you suggest and report back about 6 hours. The setup Choonster has and all the questions about registering things on this forum is making me change the basic mod template structure I've been using for a long time.

plus it's tea time.

Update. Been trying a new approach and it hasn't worked out.

Currently the new issue is Attempted to register a entry with a null name: I'm trying to figure that out. It's a strange setup that Chroonster has.

You need to set the registry name of an IForgeRegistryEntry before registering it. I do this in the constructors of my Items/Blocks.

Thank you very much. Saved me a bit of time searching all around. I'm now closer than ever!

currently the two issues I have:

Spoiler

Exception loading model for variant apotropaic:painting#inventory for item "apotropaic:painting"

caused by apotropaic:models/item/painting.json

Exception loading model for variant apotropaic:painting#inventory for item "apotropaic:painting", blockstate location exception:

Which is because I have yet to setup the model, jsons, or texture file which is what I'll be tackling first.

the second is when ever I try to place the untextured block all I get is smoke particles. I think I know the general area that resides in.

Stroam · June 30, 2017

Alright I have not progressed at all. Minecraft no longer gives me errors but I have failed to be able to get an icon, get a painting, place a painting.

I've tried these json configurations and I put them in the models.item folder.

I have a the same painting.png as the vanilla one in textures.items

I also created textures.paintings folder like they have in vanilla and it has the same png

What am I doing wrong. If you need any further files let me know.

The FML log (logs/fml-client-latest.log) should tell you why the models failed to load. Upload it to Gist or Pastebin and link it here.

There aren't any model errors in the log.

What does the item render as? Where are you registering the model? Post your code.

Where do you call ModRenderers.register from? Where do you register your item models?

Post a screenshot of the item.

ModRenderers is called from preInit in ClientProxy

ModModelManager calls the item models

I'm going to take the time to make a git repo for this real quick. Thanks for the help. I hope this makes it go quicker.

I've identified an issue with the item models. I'd like to see if I can solve it first before uploading.

I have an icon!!! ...but it still doesn't do anything except play the placePainting noise.

I'm almost there. Just need it to make an actual painting which I think I've got a clue where I need to do some changes. Also it's not listening to my en_us.lang and I don't know why. Github repo

Fixed the .lang file

I fixed what I thought was causing the issue with placing the painting and it didn't work. So now I'm tired and clueless. The repo is up to date from the last post. Going to sleep on in and come back on it in the morning.

The en_us.lang I know is and easy fix but I can't for the life of me figure it out. The repo is up to date. Going to keep beating my head against the wall till I pass out or it starts working. If I don't reply withing 15 minutes of a post, assume I passed out.

You have two lang files, but neither is correct. You have one with the right name in the wrong location and one with the wrong name in the right location.

The correct location and name is assets/<modid>/lang/en_us.lang (when you have a pack.mcmeta file with pack_format set to 3).

Thanks. Just figured it out. Didn't know about the pack.meta stuff though. Still not getting it to place the painting but everything else is working. I'm going to tear into it again tomorrow.
