Crafting recipe error when using custom items

[sinsiliuxs120 0]

So I've encountered this problem when I try to add a crafting recipe for item from my mod using other items from my mod minecraft crashes on start up. Eclipse doesn't show any errors and I'm not sure what to do. All my items are in base mod class as well as their crafting recipes. However items that are crafted with vanilla minecraft items work just fine. If you need any part of code just let me know. Thanks in advance

mod.tdm.TdmBase.load(TdmBase.java:34)

Error at line 34 of TdmBase.java, in the load method, at GameRegistry.addRecipe(args) you are giving a null.

[ILuvYouCompanionCube 6]

check whether you are defining all the letters in your recipe, each letter is an ingredient. And check if all the items/blocks in the recipe are registered

[sinsiliuxs120 0]

All letters are defined, but I think that those items I used in crafting are unregistered. Could you explain it to me/give me a link where it's explained how to register items?

 

Edit: If you mean by typing public static ItemName under the public class BaseMod then yes I did that, for all items

[sinsiliuxs120 0]

Any ideas how to fix this? Anyone?

[bl4ckscor3 5]

The source code is very helpful on this.

[sinsiliuxs120 0]

Ok, I will put in the source code as soon as I come back.

[ashtonr12 3]

this is how i did it

"GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(ObsidianSword), " O "," O "," R ",'O', ashtonsmod.CondensedObsidian,'R',blazerod); "

[GotoLink 381]

So, there are three possible null arguments:

-ObsidianSword

-CondensedObsidian

-blazerod

All those should be initialized before the addRecipe(args) line.

 

You can also try with

GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack(ObsidianSword), new Object[]{" O "," O "," R ",'O', ashtonsmod.CondensedObsidian,'R',blazerod});

Ok, so here is the BaseMod.class (TdmBase.java) code:

One example:

In the first addRecipe call you use TdmBase.cog, which is initialized a few lines after that call.

You can only use Items you have initialized!

Thank, you. This solved the problem

 

P.S. It wasn't necessary to use exclamation mark.
