[1.12.2] my entity isn't rendering

[deerangle]

I created a basic entity (I am going to make behavior once I get it to render). And I checked that Entity.onUpdate() and Entity.onEntityUpdate() are being called.

I register my IRenderFactory in my ClientProxy (is also being called): 

RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(EntityComet.class, new RenderCometFactory());

Here, my RenderFactory:

public class RenderCometFactory implements IRenderFactory<EntityComet> {

	@Override
	public Render<? super EntityComet> createRenderFor(RenderManager manager) {
		return new RenderComet(manager);
	}

}

 

I register the Entity in my ModEntityRegistry class:

private EntityEntry ENTITY_COMET = new EntityEntry(EntityComet.class, "comet").setRegistryName("comet");

/**
 * ...
**/

@SubscribeEvent
public void registerEntity(RegistryEvent.Register<EntityEntry> event){
	IForgeRegistry<EntityEntry> registry = event.getRegistry();
		
	registry.register(ENTITY_COMET);
}

This is my EntityRender class:

public class RenderComet extends Render<EntityComet> {

	protected RenderComet(RenderManager renderManager) {
		super(renderManager);
	}

	@Override
	public void doRender(EntityComet entity, double x, double y, double z, float entityYaw, float partialTicks) {
		super.doRender(entity, x, y, z, entityYaw, partialTicks);
		System.out.println("Am i rendering?");
	}
	
	@Override
	public RenderManager getRenderManager() {
		return super.getRenderManager();
	}
	
	@Override
	protected ResourceLocation getEntityTexture(EntityComet entity) {
		return null;
	}

}

 

And the entity class...

	public EntityComet(World worldIn, int x, int y, int z) {
		this(worldIn);
		this.setPosition(x, y, z);
	}

	public EntityComet(World worldIn) {
		super(worldIn);
		this.setSize(1, 1);
	}
	
	@Override
	public void onEntityUpdate() {
		super.onEntityUpdate();
	}
	
	@Override
	public void onUpdate() {
		super.onUpdate();
		System.out.println(getPosition());
	}

	@Override
	protected void entityInit() {
		System.out.println("wüoghjweg");
	}

	@Override
	protected void readEntityFromNBT(NBTTagCompound compound) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub

	}

	@Override
	protected void writeEntityToNBT(NBTTagCompound compound) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub

	}

 

All methods seem to be getting called (except for render, of course).

Did you register the renderer?

I registered my IRenderFactory:

Do you seperately need to register the renderer itself?

[Draco18s]

That is the correct registration method, I just didn't see it.

I just checked again, and although my ClientProxy.preinit() is begin called, it appears, that RenderCometFactory.createRenderFor() isn't being called!

[deerangle]

OK. I'm now using Constructor Reference and deleted the RenderFactory. Also, I Am calling  

RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(EntityComet.class, RenderComet::new);

 via the ClientProxy in preInit, after registering the entity. the Render's Constructor is being called, but doRender is not being called. My Entity also initializes, so it must exist.

Thanks! It's working now!
