Hey guys,

Im very new to modding, especially in creating mobs. I tried to create one, but Im missing the spawnegg. I used a tutorial to create it.

I hope that anybody can help me. For development I use Forge-1.12.2-14.23.4.2705-mdk.

DeBugger (probably not a debugger ;D)

 

PS:

I dont have advanced Java kowledge. I hope thats okay and enough ;)

    Sorry that Im not very good informed about modding. Do I have to set a creativetab for the spawnegg? I registered now the spawnegg and the entity in different methods:

    Its still not working. Eclipse dont highlight any errors. Only two lines in consoles log make me worried:
      

    Attempting connection with missing mods [minecraft, mcp, FML, forge, cb] at CLIENT

Attempting connection with missing mods [minecraft, mcp, FML, forge, cb] at SERVER

    Are this messages important for my problem?

    Do not use EntityRegistry. Use RegistryEvent.Register<EntityEntry> and build EntityEntries using EntityEntryBuilder similar to how I do here.

     

    Apart from that everything looks correct to me. Put a breakpoint in your registerEntities method and see if it is executed at all.

    Do I also need something like your Helpers-class?

    EDIT: I think I found it out by myself. Sorry.

    No, I use it to call clinit and make the data parameters of the entities initialize so both the client and the server are aware of them. I've had an issue with the client not having the parameters initialized and the corresponding client->server connection crashes. This is just a hacky fix I've implemented to solve that problem.

    Okay, so far MC crahes with the excpetion: 

    Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Method public static void com.cb.cyborg.util.handlers.RegistryHandler.preInitRegistries() has @SubscribeEvent annotation, but requires 0 arguments.  Event handler methods must require a single argument.

    But I need the arguments 

    RegistryEvent.Register<EntityEntry> event

    ?. I have no clue how to make it work. Sorry, Im (very) basic in Java and modding.

    As the error message tells you you need a RegistryEvent.Register<EntityEntry> as an argument to your event handler(you currently have no arguments at all). When you declare an event handler you specify the event you listen to by having that event as the argument to the listener method.

    Where do I have to declare the handler? In the EntityRegistry, EntityInit... Im sorry if I get on your nerves?

    public static void registerEntities(RegistryEvent.Register<EntityEntry> event)

    If the method is static you don't need an instance to invoke it. This is basic java.

     

    As long as RegistryHandler is subscribed to the event bus this will work, yes.

    I think that I now know my failure: my preInitRegistries SubscribeEvent dont contain an argument.

    It also is logged in the console.

    Okay, I corrected the failure. MC doesnt crash anymore, but I still dont have a spawnegg. I summoned the mob per command, and a "Zombie" were summoned. Now I have three problems:

    1. Zombie has default zombie-texture
    2. no spawnegg
    3. custom mob-model isnt used

    What do you mean no spawn egg? does it exist with /give? please post your logs & your EntityCyborg class

     

    Register your egg inside the builder.

    Have a look at https://github.com/Cadiboo/WIPTechAlpha/blob/28bbf1ca75d6a02445838c3f4742a80ee6adc7f7/src/main/java/cadiboo/wiptech/EventSubscriber.java#L280-L290 for an example.

    I don't see where preInitRegistries() is being called.

    You should probably try registering your entity renders like this.

    Or do you mean the EntityZombie-class? I have a DevWorkspace setup, so I cant reach the MC-sourcecode. Sorry.

    No. You should never post vanilla code. What you posted is what was required.

    Yes you can. Its under Referenced Libraries.
