[1.12]How to make new dimensions?

[JavaMan7]

I am trying to make a new dimension but when I try to go there I get the error below.

 

this is how i register the dimension

here

DimensionRegister.mainRegistry() gets called here

 

 

this is where the Player.changeDimension() gets called .This works some times but only if the DimensionType that I pass  into DimensionManager.registerDimension() is one of the existing enum. if i use DimensionType.register() it never works and gives me the error below

could some one tell me what im doing wrong and how to do it the right way with an example.
