[1.11.2] EntityThrowable only Renders Partly?

[HalestormXV]

Alright so I have a custom entity created that is meant to be a "bullet" for an item. The item on right click will shoot the bullet. I have been unable to find anything relating to how to render ThrowableEntites correctly so I pieced this together with various sources. There are two problems. One is when you right click the item it does indeed "shoot" the enttiy however it also blows up the log with this error:

	[19:08:07] [Client thread/ERROR]: ########## GL ERROR ##########
[19:08:07] [Client thread/ERROR]: @ Post render
[19:08:07] [Client thread/ERROR]: 1283: Stack overflow

Ah, yes, I see the problem.

On line 109 in your Render class you perform an illegal action. You should do this:

 

Post your damn code

Wow lmfao epic response for epic fail. I didn't even realize the whole post after the code box got cut off. My fault for nto double checking the thread. Got to comfortable with the "bling" nosie the site makes. Lol sorry.

 

Here is the render class. Relatively simply or at least all teh examples I looked at seem to do rendering items this same way.

You need to put GlStateManager.popMatrix() at the end of your render method.

A lot of people post "I have problem" and don't post code or error and expect us to help merely by recognizing a vague description of the problem.

So I end up writing a lot of witty retorts.

Excellent that resolved it. Didn't realize i missed that. Now perhaps the next issue can be looked at? Rather than make a whole new thread for it? The entity does not fire outward. Its simply looks as if it falls at the feet of the player. Now I am sure that perhaps i am not setting my velocity correctly, or maybe it has to do with throwableHeading, I am not sure. But I know I missing something. In doing some searching on the forums it is actually quite simialr of an issue to this post 

Spoiler

 

 

 

However mine seems to be worse and almost never seems to show the render unless I am looking straight down. Here is the entity class. It is very very basic right now and basically does nothing except exist, simply because I just want to get it to work first before I start adding to it.

Yes I know that quite well.

In the code you provided you never actually set the velocity in anyway. Do you ever set the velocity?

Yes i have tried that also by taking the setVelocity function and setting the motion X, Y and Z to add 4. Perhaps that is not the correct way to do it?

Maybe it is not supposed to be done that way?

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public void setVelocity(double x, double y, double z)
{
    this.motionX = x + 4;
    this.motionY = y + 4;
    this.motionZ = z + 4;

}

Maybe it is not supposed to be done that way? 

Where do you call this method?

 

Edit: This method should only be called to update the variables when they have been changed on the server. Do you call EntityThrowable#setHeadingFromThrower or EntityThrowable#setThrowableHeading?

I tried in two places. (separate runs of course) Once in here

 

public EntityCelestialBolt(World world, EntityLivingBase entity)

{

super(world, entity);

this.setVelocity(2, motionY, motionZ);  

}

 

And the other one above that you quoted (for just testing numbers) in the onUpdate.

 

Problem is, the item still doesn't render fully and you can't tell if it is actually moving or not since you can't see it. The same as above applies though. If you are at the right angle you can see it for a second, but not enough to tell if it is doing anything or not.

Gotta bump this unfortuantly. Alright so I fixed it, the entity now travels at the speed it should, it does the damage it should if it hits an entity. If it hits a non-living entity it exploads. Perfect. However, here is the last problem. It does not render the projectile unless you are looking down. It "shoots" but does not render. I don't even know where this issue might reside. 

 

Here is the updated EntityClass: https://pastebin.com/yypQkJ4S

Here is the updated RenderClas: https://pastebin.com/HeR2eTuN

Just for Giggles here is the JSON for the item that is supposed to render if that has anything to do with it: https://pastebin.com/reTEi3Sk

 

EDIT 2: Here is an example to illustrate the issue. As you can see the item is rendered only when flying around and looking at it form other angles and stuff. Otherwise it doesnt appear to render. And the trails that follow the projectile are just there for testing so i can see that it is actually moving. They will be removed once I can figure out this render issue.

Bump, if anyone might know how to fix this? Here is the link to the example again. And the classes haven't changed.

Change (in your render class)

Quote

        GlStateManager.enableColorMaterial();
        super.doRender(entity, x, y, z, entityYaw, partialTicks);
        GlStateManager.popMatrix();

 

to (from RenderSnowball)

Quote

        GlStateManager.disableRescaleNormal();
        GlStateManager.popMatrix();
        super.doRender(entity, x, y, z, entityYaw, partialTicks);

Changed them and still the exact same result. Only renders like in the video clip above. Talk about icnredibly frustrating.

Bump - still having this issue unfortuantly. It's one of the only things stopping the release of my mod lol. So any help is appreciated.
