_SparkMaster_ · July 18, 2012

Seems there is something

In your mod_Hybrid.java file

In the function addNames

On line 51

What is null

Figure it out.

_SparkMaster_ · July 18, 2012

Ok, So i found what was supposedly null:

ModLoader.addName(DarkStone, "Darkstone");

Now what is so null about it???

Other Parts of my code that have to do with this

Block register

public void registerBlocks()
 {
	 ModLoader.registerBlock(DarkStone);
 }

Add Recipe

ModLoader.addRecipe(new ItemStack(DarkStone, 1), new Object[]{

	 });
 }

I think making the block???

}

@Override

	return "HybridCraft/terrain/blocks.png";
}

}

Can someone please explain why this is null???

LexManos · July 18, 2012

I see no where in there where you assign it a value.

Also thats a horrible name for a variable, it makes it look like a class.

And dont post code snipits, post full code so we can see the project flow.

Somehow, its null, there really is no if ands or buts about it.

there's entire code.

And also what do you mean by i didnt assign a value?? I assigned everything correctly... Or else there would be error's wouldnt there?

And I name things to where i know what they are...

LexManos · July 18, 2012

Wow there are SOOO many things wrong with that code I don't know where to start

Character.valueOf fuck that shit

you're statically initializing everything

ALL of your variables have capitol, like you're declaring a fucking class.

You're doing all your shit in the constructor

You're using texture overrides for everything

Want to know why you're nulling debug your god damn code.

Its obvious, it will NEVER work in MCP

For the love of god, just.. do.. better....

_SparkMaster_ · July 18, 2012

It works in mcp. it worked fine up till i added a block.

Well heck it still works it just crashes because of stupid null object.

And also if there are SOOO many things wrong with it. WOuld you like to teach me how to code?

Or at least how to fix all my supposed screw ups?

LexManos · July 18, 2012

I already listed the bulk of the things you're doing wrong.

What more do you want?

Also, try running it in eclipse, step through take a look at when things are running.

You'll see why your block is null.

However, I advise you go look into some lower level java tutorials before you work on modding.

I'm sure the minecraft community can last another few days without your ever so unique dirt items.

Non-statically, obviously, your mod gets instantiated, and then there are events that fire at certain times, take advantage of them.

Quote

Not if you want any fucking help what so ever or if you want anyone who knows 2 shits about programming to even take a second glance. They are universal standards for a reason. Its like trying to ask someone for help and only typing in 1337-speak. It shows you to be a fucking moron not worth anyones time.

In the two other major events that BaseMod exposes.

What does that have to do with what I said? You're using addOverride when making a forge mod, taking up precious sprite indicies and making your code ugly as shit. Use your own texture sheets like a good boy.

NO, No it doesnt, there is NO way your code as posted will NOT throw that NPE. MCP or not.

I expect5 a modicum of intelligence from people and a willingness to learn/descover for themselves. I do not hand hold. I am not here to teach every 12 year old how to program. Its your job as someone who wants to make a mod to actually KNOW how to program well enough to understand the basics.

And yes, these things are the BASICS of programming.

Also, banned for not following directions, and for being a whinny little bastard.

diamonje · July 18, 2012

Hey i'm spark_masters friend and he he said he's sorry for being a whiny little bitch.

OvermindDL1 · July 20, 2012

He really should take a few Java tutorials first though. Before starting modding here we do expect people to know Java mostly well first. Not necessarily the JVM, but at least java.

Legomyeggo · July 21, 2012

Hi, I am new to the forums as anyone could possibly tell, and I am just reading through to see if there are any unsolved problems, to which I doubt there are. But, I happened to come across this one to which _SparkMaster_ got banned for being a whinny little bastard (as lex stated), but I read the terms of agreement, and the sticky that says: Read this or you may get banned, and no where does it say he can be banned for being a whinny little bastard... I have one question is that the real reason why he got banned? I understand that he doesn't seem to have any knowledge of Java, but give him a break. I have tested out his mod, it is pretty great for a beginner. Main point being, Is he banned for being a whinny little bastard, not knowing java, or just because you feel like he doesn't need to waste your time?

That is just Lex's rules. That page is not all inclusive, just the most common things.

As for Lex, he would have to say why.

I also saw that spark tried to re-register, but he put the domain for his email address as yaoo.com, I am guessing he meant to put yahoo.com, he should fix that.

EDIT: My 'guess' of why Lex did is because he was being argumentative. Lex is harsh, he says things straight out, but what he says should be heeded. Arguing with him just bugs him considering that he gave very useful information (if not kindly, but it was very useful), and the person tried to argue about it and attack. As an example, the response "Ok, Maybe i dont want to use the ugly ass textures that minecraft gives???" makes no sense as it is quite obvious then just about every forge mod (if not every one) uses custom textures, and considering that adding an override is a modloader method that only has about 50 or so overrides available, then it is obvious then the forge mods must not be using it then. Rather the mods use new texture sheets, which is actually both easier to use, more powerful, and has no such limitations. By him using the overrides then he was reducing the ability for non-forge mods to be able to work with forge and his mod. That is just one example, and instead of attacking then he should have asked 'why' and what he should be using instead. We can be quite helpful here if people ask.

Well, any idea on when I could possibly ask Lex about this???

Ok, now I agree and actually am starting to agree with Lex now, but still. If you think about it:

1) Dude was a noob at java

2) He is probably some kid that doesn't know what he was doing.

3) Ever heard of 2nd chances? I mean i am not siding with him, i am just asking, because if you think about it, when you ban someone, you lose a forge downloader... because they can't access forge through here. they have to find someone that has reuploaded forge.

And also regarding your last piece of last post:

Ask instead of Attacking, well Lex did sort of start critizing his work. Maybe Spark is some self concious kid that thought what he was doing was going to cover his mod.

OvermindDL1 · July 21, 2012

I edited above post, but by posting that you basically did, Lex might respond when he is next on (anywhere from few hours to few days). Or you can ask on the #minecraftforge irc channel on esper. Just do not type out Lex's full name, he hates pings, it is in the IRC chat rules in the topic.

Eh, I'll just wait, considering that Spark did sort of attack, but it is also probably none of my buisness, I was just really curious.

Thanks. Hey btw I have one question for you...

Could you possibly check out his mod? If i have to say it does give dirt a good use, and it is pretty set forward for planning. future wise. And with this post

Good Night People. I will check back tomorrow...

Adding dirt tools does not a good mod make.

And I can ban anyone I please if they piss me off.

Being banned does NOT stop them from downloading forge because there are several official places aside from this forum to get the download links from.

I will not put up with arrogant twats who try to bitch at me when I do nothing but help.

If you don't like the way I provide help, don't post here.

I am a dick, I know it.

But i've earned the right to be a dick.

I am also correct when I am a dick, and provide proper help. If you don't like it, shut up or go away, if you don't you'll be banned.

It's a waist of my time to argue with immature people who do not know how to take statements of fact and help.

Forge is NOT a java school.

We will NOT help people who are just copy/pasting from tutorials.

I will NOT tolerate people who argue with there superiors. (When there superiors are correct)

Legomyeggo · July 21, 2012

Ok 1st: you used wrong form of waist. It supposed to be waste my time.

2nd: I see what your getting at, but really, noob at java, needs help, doesnt understand the help, then he will probably get pissed off because he was probably thinking, Why is "Lex" know forge modder not helping.

3rd: In my opinion your help was very vague... My opinion, but he probably thought WTH I dont understand, so therefore he isn't helping me...

And what do you mean by other places to download forge???

But thanks I was just really curious..

P.S. I do believe he was errogant in attacking instead of asking, but still, could possibly let some child piss you off so much as to ban him??? I mean really..

Definition of this Kid: Errogant little bastard that doesn't have a clue on WTF he is doing.

Also if you even looked at the mod thread, it shows a list of future updates, not only dirt tools. He is thinking of making hybrids of each of the tools. And then even possibly going from there idk. but it is a good build so far...

Everytime i google it, i get brought here... Then link through to the jenkins build...

LexManos · July 21, 2012

1) Correct my spelling or grammar one more time and I will ban you

2) I dont care why he gets pissed, this is not a java school and we will not be teaching the basics of java.

3) Your opinion is invalid because I gave rather specific criticisems that anyone who knows anything about programing would understand.

4) Mediafire, Jenkins, Directly through the links, the 500 some odd mirriors I can find while googleing.

As for his mod, I have seen it, nothing he is ding in unique, or new, or innovative, or anything that would spark any sense of interest from me.
