Trying to make an entity which extends upon PaintingEntity and PaintingRenderer. Getting a nullPointerException but I cannot for the life of me understand what is null.

 

Code:

ModEntities:

@ObjectHolder(VanillaBoom.MOD_ID)
public class ModEntities
{
    public static final EntityType<PrismarineArrowEntity> PRISMARINE_ARROW = Utils._null();
    public static final EntityType<CustomPaintingEntity> CUSTOM_PAINTING = Utils._null();

    @Mod.EventBusSubscriber(modid = VanillaBoom.MOD_ID, bus = Bus.MOD)
    public static class RegistrationHandler
    {
        @SubscribeEvent
        public static void registerEntities(RegistryEvent.Register<EntityType<?>> event)
        {
            event.getRegistry().register(build(Names.PRISMARINE_ARROW, EntityType.Builder.<PrismarineArrowEntity>create(PrismarineArrowEntity::new, EntityClassification.MISC).setCustomClientFactory((spawnEntity, world) -> new PrismarineArrowEntity(PRISMARINE_ARROW, world)).size(0.5f, 0.5f)));
            event.getRegistry().register(build(Names.CUSTOM_PAINTING, EntityType.Builder.<CustomPaintingEntity>create(CustomPaintingEntity::new, EntityClassification.MISC).setCustomClientFactory((spawnEntity, world) -> new CustomPaintingEntity(CUSTOM_PAINTING, world)).size(0.5f, 0.5f)));
        }

        private static <T extends Entity> EntityType<T> build(String name, EntityType.Builder<T> builder)
        {
            ResourceLocation registryName = new ResourceLocation(VanillaBoom.MOD_ID, name);
            EntityType<T> entityType = builder.build(registryName.toString());
            entityType.setRegistryName(registryName);

            return entityType;
        }
    }
}

 

ModRenderers:

@Mod.EventBusSubscriber(modid = VanillaBoom.MOD_ID, value = Dist.CLIENT, bus = Bus.MOD)
public class ModRenderers
{
    @SubscribeEvent
    public static void register(FMLClientSetupEvent event)
    {
        RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(ModEntities.PRISMARINE_ARROW, renderManager -> new PrismarineArrowRenderer(renderManager, new ResourceLocation(VanillaBoom.MOD_ID, "textures/entity/prismarine_arrow.png")));
        RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(ModEntities.CUSTOM_PAINTING, renderManager -> new PaintingRenderer(renderManager));
    }
}

 

CustomPaintingEntity:

public class CustomPaintingEntity extends PaintingEntity
{
    public CustomPaintingEntity(EntityType<? extends CustomPaintingEntity> type, World world)
    {
        super(type, world);
    }

    public CustomPaintingEntity(World world, BlockPos pos, Direction facing)
    {
        super(world, pos, facing);
    }

    @OnlyIn(Dist.CLIENT)
    public CustomPaintingEntity(World worldIn, BlockPos pos, Direction facing, PaintingType artIn)
    {
        super(worldIn, pos, facing, artIn);
    }

    public void updateArt(PaintingType paintingType, Direction facing)
    {
        art = paintingType;
        updateFacingWithBoundingBox(facing);
    }

    @Override
    public void onBroken(@Nullable Entity brokenEntity)
    {
        if (world.getGameRules().getBoolean(GameRules.DO_ENTITY_DROPS))
        {
            playSound(SoundEvents.ENTITY_PAINTING_BREAK, 1.0F, 1.0F);

            if (brokenEntity instanceof PlayerEntity)
            {
                PlayerEntity playerentity = (PlayerEntity) brokenEntity;

                if (playerentity.abilities.isCreativeMode)
                {
                    return;
                }
            }

            entityDropItem(getDrop());
        }
    }

    public Item getDrop()
    {
        return ModItems.SKULL_AND_ROSES_PAINTING;
    }

    @Override
    public EntityType<?> getType()
    {
        return ModEntities.CUSTOM_PAINTING;
    }

    @Override
    public IPacket<?> createSpawnPacket()
    {
        return NetworkHooks.getEntitySpawningPacket(this);
    }
}
