[1.8.9] The method is undefined for the type ClientCommandHandler

[VoltDragon]

Code: https://pastebin.com/AZwDNPEi

The error occurs in the last few lines of code: 

@Mod.EventHandler
  public void init(FMLInitializationEvent event)
  {

 

     MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(this);
     ClientCommandHandler.instance.registerCommand(new HitBoxMod());

   }
    

The full error is: The method registerCommand(HitBoxMod) is undefined for the type ClientCommandHandler

For some reason, the .registerCommand is underlined if that helps.

I'm rly tired rn so I think I'm just being dumb but I can't find a fix.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Honestly, all I'm looking for is a solution, not an argument. If you can, point me in the right place, if not, leave me alone and I'll let someone else figure out the problem. Thanks.

This is not an argument. 1.8.9 is 4 years old and is no longer supported on this forum. We simply can't offer you help with this version because there were too many changes and nobody wants to remember how to work with the outdated methods anymore.

Fair enough, is there anywhere else that I could post this or some other way I could correct the problem?

Update to 1.12.2.

Also, learn Java. Your issue is completely trivial if you know how any kind of basic Java works.
