1.15.1 entity model problems

[treblotmail]

I've been struggling to create a custom entity. I used BlockBench to create the model and have fixed up some parts of it (it's not complete so there is probably some terrible code in there). I have a few questions: 

 

1. When I export the model as a .java file using BlockBench, for some reason it uses bodypart.cubeList.add() even though cubeList is private. Is there a way to get around that or is using .cubeList.add() completely wrong?

 

2. In other places of reference I've looked at, such as GirafiStudios' Waddles mod (https://github.com/GirafiStudios/Waddles/blob/master/src/main/java/com/girafi/waddles/client/model/PenguinModel.java) and McJty's examplemod (https://github.com/McJty/YouTubeModding14/blob/master/src/main/java/com/mcjty/mytutorial/entities/WeirdMobModel.java) for 1.14/1.15, they've all been using bodypart.addBox(). However, in my environment, the ModelRenderer.class doesn't even have the addBox method. When I try to use addBox Intellij says "cannot resolve addBox() in ModelRenderer" And I looked ModelRenderer up on the documentation and its totally there. What do I even do to get around this?

If this is relevant, the forge version I am using is 1.15.1 - 30.0.50 with the default mcp mapping

 

Thanks for any help and sorry if this is very lengthy!

Hi

I'd advise you swap to the latest forge version (not recommended), because the mcp mappings are much better.

 

It sounds like you're doing things the right way.

 

You might find this example project useful (see MBE80 and MBE21), it has some working examples of models (rendered using a TER not an entity but the ModelRenderer is the same)

Don't use the cubeList.add(). addBox() should work fine instead.

Try to update to the last mappings versions.

Yes, here is no more a cubelist, but you simply can use the add function.
