Ok so in Eclipse, ive made my first block and throughout the enitre mod there are no errors,however, when i go to run it this keeps popping up:

 

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal object for naming null

Also heres both my codes if it helps:

 

mod_mymod:

 

package net.minecraft.src.tutorial;

 

import net.minecraft.src.BaseMod;

import net.minecraft.src.Block;

import net.minecraft.src.ModLoader;

 

 

 

 

public class mod_mymod extends BaseMod {

 

public static Block blockRavireBlock;

@Override

public String getVersion() {

return null;

}

 

@Override

public void load() {

this.registerBlocks();

this.addNames();

}

 

 

private void registerBlocks() {

 

ModLoader.registerBlock(blockRavireBlock);

}

 

 

private void addNames(){

 

ModLoader.addName(blockRavireBlock, "Ravire Block");

} }

 

The actual Block class:

 

package net.minecraft.src.tutorial;

 

import net.minecraft.src.Block;

import net.minecraft.src.Material;

import net.minecraft.src.StepSound;

import net.minecraft.src.forge.ITextureProvider;

 

public class blockRavireBlock extends Block implements ITextureProvider {

 

protected blockRavireBlock(int blockID, int textureID) {

 

super(blockID, textureID, Material.wood);

setHardness(3.1F);

setResistance(0.3F);

setLightValue(10);

setStepSound(soundWoodFootstep);

 

}

@Override

public String getTextureFile(){

return "Ravire.png";

}

}

 

Yup thats all of it.

Where do you create your block?

Obviously it'll be null.

Its in the middle and i followed some guys tutorial to the exact, i actually copied it and changed the names because he said you could do that  but if you need it here it is:

We need to see 'your' mod file, not that one.

have you edited the EnumToolMaterial base class to add in your RAVIRE EnumToolMaterial? because i dont see a variable anywhere in your code for it.

This.

And do not use ModLoader.addOverride, that is old, deprecated, and rather useless now, use a new texture sheet instead with setTexture on the blocks/items.

And it is better to use addTranslation instead of addName.

You aren't creating a block! It's nowhere. Obviously it's gonna be null!

Change public static Block blockRavierBlock; to public static Block blockRavierBlock = new BlockRavierBlock(...);

Done.

Or change the op to reflect your actual mod.

There shouldn't be a problem with the code on pastebin.

[atrain99]

mods might want to lock this topic as people are coming back to try and answer this without reading through the post.
