[1.15.2] Custom EntityArrow not rendering texture

[xanderindalzone]

Hi, back in 1.12.2 I made a custom arrow following a tutorial on youtube. Now that I'm updating everything to 1.15.2, the guy that made that tutorial hasn't shown how to do it in 1.15.2. 

 

I'm trying to update the bullet entity code, which extends from EntityArrow, but I can't get it to render the bullet texture, its rendering the minecraft arrow texture all the time.

I've checked the log, and it appears that the render is not registering, but I dont know where update the code to fix the issue.

 

Here are my classes, I probably have something wrong or missing, I'm not very good with registries or renders.

There are some lines of code that I've found in other posts that I dont know if I have the correct parameters, so let me know if I have an incorrect parameter in any of the bullet stuff methods.

[poopoodice]

        Minecraft.getInstance().player.rotationPitch=Minecraft.getInstance().player.rotationPitch+recoil_pitch;
        Minecraft.getInstance().player.rotationYaw=Minecraft.getInstance().player.rotationYaw+recoil_yaw;
        
        

        if(!world.isRemote)
        {
            world.addEntity(bullet);
            this.AMMO--;
            worldIn.playSound(null, playerIn.getPosition(), GunSoundEvents.SOUND_shot_Colt1911, SoundCategory.PLAYERS, 1.0F, 1.0F);
        }

these won't work

Minecraft does not exist on servers

and I assume these code are inside your item class, this.AMMO--; won't work either because there is only one item, and multiple itemstacks

if you look into arrow entity

public ArrowEntity(World worldIn, double x, double y, double z) { super(EntityType.ARROW, x, y, z, worldIn); }

this is something I'll fix later, I did notice a while ago when I was modding in back 1.12.

 

But still, I dont know why the BulletEntityArrow is spawning a normal ArrowEntity model/texture.

 

BTW, I just realized the entity is spawning as an invisible arrow using the command /summon. So it appears to be registering now the entity, but why does the entity render a Vanilla arrow when I use the gun and when I use the command it spawns an invisible arrow?

Why in the name of sanity are you statically creating your objects?

That's terrible. It's not compatible with most of the Forge systems.

Use @ObjectHolder annotations. It'll make your life so much easier.

I just started modding last month, I'm doing stuff how I learned on youtube, no need to be like that :c

IT'S FINALLY RENDERING!! :V
 

 

For the people that have the same issue.... I extended PistolBulletEntity from AbstractArrowEntity instead of ArrowEntity... also....
I changed this method in the PistolBulletEntity Class(to fix the invisible spawning):

Quote

    @Override
    public IPacket<?> createSpawnPacket() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return super.createSpawnPacket();
    }

to....

Quote

    @Override
    public IPacket<?> createSpawnPacket() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return NetworkHooks.getEntitySpawningPacket(this);
    }

 

 

 

 

And to fix the constantly Arrow spawn instead of my custom entity, I changed this constructor parameter when I was creating the entity in the Gun Class:

Quote

PistolBulletEntity bullet = new PistolBulletEntity(EntityType.ARROW, 1.0D, 1.0D, 1.0D, world);

to...

Quote

PistolBulletEntity bullet = new PistolBulletEntity(Init.PISTOL_BULLET_ENTITY, 1.0D, 1.0D, 1.0D, world);

 

 

The Init.PISTOL_BULLET_ENTITY is the EntityType<PistolBulletEntity> variable I created in the Init class.

    /*PROJECTILES*/
    /*===========*/    
    public static final EntityType<PistolBulletEntity> PISTOL_BULLET_ENTITY = 
            EntityType.Builder.<PistolBulletEntity>create(PistolBulletEntity::new, EntityClassification.MISC)
            .setShouldReceiveVelocityUpdates(true)
            .setTrackingRange(64)
            .setUpdateInterval(1)
            .size(1, 1)
            .build(new ResourceLocation(CustomGunsMod.MOD_ID, "pistol_bullet_entity").toString());

FOOTAGE
PD: now I have to fix the issue that make some bullets bounce back or bug in midair.... is there a way to kill the entity when it hits the ground or another entity?
