Why are you doing it in init? getRegistry is not static. You cannot call it like that. Use the event like the one you commented out, but static and passing in the item variables.

No. No, no, no.

 

You say you know Java. I don't think you do.

 

We tell you to call the getRegistry method on an instance of RegisterEvent.Register. So you need to look around and see if there's an instance which you can use. Hint: it's the single parameter in the method. Then you need to call the getRegistry method on that specific instance. And apparently, that's too hard for you.

 

You have a perfectly fine, working method commented out at the bottom of your Main class. Uncomment that and put it in a class annotated by @Mod.EventBusSubscriber.

IF YOU STOPPED INSULTING ME MAYBE THIS WOULD GO FASTER

Look I do know java but i dont work with this type of stuff. I know I dont know as much as you THATS WHY WE ARE HAVING THIS CONVERSATION. I am asking for help with the basics so that I can expand on it...

 

Now...

 

Going back on topic...

 I uncommented the code at the bottom of the class and annotated it with @Mod.EventBusSubscriber. it says that @ Mod... is not applicable to method.

Its people like you, you are the reason their are so few actual programming minecraft modders.

 

Noww....

I did what you said and now i have a crash report that says Can not register to a locked registry. Modder should use forge Register methods.

Here is the crash report and main file.

Main.java

crash-2017-07-06_19.38.25-client.txt

The thing is is that we have told you multiple times what you need to do, but you keep doing things that don't make sense in java and/or refuse to do what we tell you to do.

 

For example, you're still trying to call Item.registerItems, even though I told you that this was reserved for minecraft's items and you should never ever ever call this yourself, and you should not even have it imported. This is what is resulting in your crash.

 

Example two, you still haven't made your registry method static.

 

Also, you need to annotate the method with SubscribeEvent, else the method won't be called (you should also not be calling it manually, in case you were thinking you should).

1. I dont have Item.registerItems imported.

2.I get errors when I make my registry method static.

3.I get errors when I annotate the method.

Do you get them when you call registerItems manually?

You sure you're creating it correctly? Because I spawn in an item perfectly well with this code
 

    @Mod.EventBusSubscriber(modid = Reference.MOD_ID)
    public static class Test
    {
        public static Item testItem;
        @SubscribeEvent
        public static void registerItems(RegistryEvent.Register<Item> event)
        {
            event.getRegistry().register(testItem = new Item().setUnlocalizedName("test").setRegistryName("test"));
        }
    }

Even though it's not at all how I would do it in one of my actual mods, it does work.

Sorry I didnt see the import. yes when I call them manually. The error by the parameters.

Main.java

Remember when I said

? You need to take things more slowly. The entire point of annotating the method is so that it will be called automatically by forge. You never need to call any method that is annotated by SubscribeEvent, it is done automatically at the appropriate time for you.

 

Also, maybe this should've been mentioned earlier, but you should really check out mcforge.readthedocs.io.
