Hi, I'm trying to create a mod for Minecraft 1.8.9 that allows you to zoom in with a keypress. For my GuiFactory, I am having a number input that allows you to customize the amount to zoom in by. So far, I have followed Jabelar's tutorial about GuiFactories, but whenever I open the config for my mod, I get this error:

Here is my GuiFactory code:

package fovmod.gui;

import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;

import net.minecraft.client.Minecraft;
import net.minecraft.client.gui.GuiScreen;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.client.IModGuiFactory;

public class FOVGuiFactory implements IModGuiFactory 
{
    @Override
    public void initialize(Minecraft minecraftInstance) 
    {
 
    }
 
    @Override
    public Class<? extends GuiScreen> mainConfigGuiClass() 
    {
        return FOVGuiConfig.class;
    }
 
    @Override
    public Set<RuntimeOptionCategoryElement> runtimeGuiCategories() 
    {
    	return null;
    }
 
    @Override
    public RuntimeOptionGuiHandler getHandlerFor(RuntimeOptionCategoryElement element) 
    {
        return null;
    }
}

And here is my config code (I do not have a tutorial for my number input yet, so if you could also point me in the direction of a tutorial to do that, that would be great):

    }
    @Override

    {
    	title = "test";
    	super.drawScreen(mouseX, mouseY, partialTicks);
    }
    
    @Override
    protected void actionPerformed(GuiButton button)
    {
        if (button.id == 2000)
        {
        	System.out.println("Pressed DONE button");
            boolean flag = true;
            try
            {
                if ((configID != null || parentScreen == null || !(parentScreen instanceof FOVGuiConfig)) 
                        && (entryList.hasChangedEntry(true)))
                {
                	System.out.println("Saving config elements");
                    boolean requiresMcRestart = entryList.saveConfigElements();

                    if (Loader.isModLoaded(modID))
                    {
                        ConfigChangedEvent event = new OnConfigChangedEvent(modID, configID, isWorldRunning, requiresMcRestart);
                        MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.post(event);
                        if (!event.getResult().equals(Result.DENY))
                            MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.post(new PostConfigChangedEvent(modID, configID, isWorldRunning, requiresMcRestart));
                        
                        if (requiresMcRestart)
                        {
                            flag = false;
                            mc.displayGuiScreen(new GuiMessageDialog(parentScreen, "fml.configgui.gameRestartTitle", 
                                    new ChatComponentText(I18n.format("fml.configgui.gameRestartRequired")), "fml.configgui.confirmRestartMessage"));
                        }
                        
                        if (parentScreen instanceof FOVGuiConfig)
                            ((FOVGuiConfig) parentScreen).needsRefresh = true;
                    }
                }
            }
            catch (Throwable e)
            {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            
            if (flag)
                mc.displayGuiScreen(parentScreen);
        }
    }    
}

Thank you so much! If you have any questions, let me know.

@Override public Set<RuntimeOptionCategoryElement> runtimeGuiCategories() {
    return null;
}

@Override
public RuntimeOptionGuiHandler getHandlerFor(RuntimeOptionCategoryElement element) {
    return null;
}

 

This does not seem correct to me.

OK, I crosschecked my code with some examples, and there were a few things missing. I added those things, but I am still getting the same error.

 

EDIT: I fixed it! The problem was that I didn't have a config file set up.
