The type EntityModel is not generic; it cannot be parameterized with arguments <Entity>

[Uskoe]

I have been having this issue for a day now and I have no clue how to fix it.

I don't really know that much of Java, I just sort of have the basics down.
I just need someone that could fix the issue I'm facing.

This is the error:
The type WrogglerEntityModel is not generic; it cannot be parameterized with arguments <WrogglerEntity>Java(16777740)

This is the code where the error is in:

package net.backrooms.smp.content.client.renderer;

import net.backrooms.smp.content.client.renderer.model.WrogglerEntityModel;
import net.backrooms.smp.content.entity.WrogglerEntity;
import net.minecraft.client.render.entity.BipedEntityRenderer;
import net.minecraft.client.render.entity.EntityRenderDispatcher;
import net.minecraft.client.render.entity.model.ZombieEntityModel;
import net.minecraft.util.Identifier;


public class WrogglerEntityRenderer extends BipedEntityRenderer<WrogglerEntity, WrogglerEntityModel<WrogglerEntity>> {

    public WrogglerEntityRenderer(EntityRenderDispatcher entityRenderDispatcher) {
        super(entityRenderDispatcher, new WrogglerEntityModel(), 0.5f);
    }

    public WrogglerEntityRenderer(
            net.backrooms.smp.content.client.renderer.model.WrogglerEntityModel wrogglerEntityModel) {
    }

    @Override
    public Identifier getTexture(WrogglerEntity entity) {
        return new Identifier("backroomssmp", "textures/entity/wroggler/wroggler.png");
    }
}

This is the EntityModel code:

I created the model in BlockBench and converted it into a Java file using a plugin that translates it into Fabric friendly code.

The type WrogglerEntityModel is not generic; it cannot be parameterized with arguments Java(16777740)

public class WrogglerEntityRenderer extends BipedEntityRenderer<WrogglerEntity, WrogglerEntityModel<WrogglerEntity>> {
public class WrogglerEntityModel extends EntityModel<WrogglerEntity> {

Like it says the WrogglerEntityModel is not parameterized.

Possible fixes would be to remove the type argument when you create your type:

public class WrogglerEntityRenderer extends BipedEntityRenderer<WrogglerEntity, WrogglerEntityModel>

or keep your entity model type generic so you can create it with the type argument.

public class WrogglerEntityModel<E extends Entity> extends EntityModel<E> {

Here's a tutorial on java generic types:

Thanks so far for taking the time to help me out, I appreciate it.
So, I changed a few things and it works now, however this one error pops up now in the EntityModel code:
Implicit super constructor BipedEntityModel<E>() is undefined. Must explicitly invoke another constructorJava(134217871)

This is what I have changed the code too:

public class WrogglerEntityModel<E extends WrogglerEntity> extends BipedEntityModel<E> {
private final ModelPart head;
	private final ModelPart headwear;
	private final ModelPart body;
	private final ModelPart left_arm;
	private final ModelPart right_arm;
	private final ModelPart left_leg;
	private final ModelPart right_leg;
public WrogglerEntityModel() { //This is where the errors pops up, at "WrogglerEntityModel()"
//The rest
}

Are you using an IDE like intellij/idea, visual studio or eclipse?
IDEs will typically suggest fixes for such errors and sometimes even give you something to click to fix it automatically.

Also if you run

gradlew gensources

you will be able to see the source code for these minecraft classes you are using.

Anyway, the error says you are using the wrong super constructor.
If you don't specify a call to super in your constructor, it will assume super().
BipedEntityModel has no such constructor, it has a choice of

    public BipedEntityModel(ModelPart root)
    public BipedEntityModel(ModelPart root, Function<Identifier, RenderLayer> renderLayerFactory) {

the first you would call with something like

public WrogglerEntityModel(ModelPart root) {
    super(root);
}

If you look at the BipedEntityModel constructor you will see root is a container for the head, body, etc.
So you don't need those private fields in your class.

Yes, I am using visual studio.

Am I supposed to add something after the "root" part in "super()", because it is giving me an error
The constructor BipedEntityModel<E>(ModelPart) is undefinedJava(134217858)

[warjort]

It likely depends upon the version of Minecraft you are using.
For me, looking at minecraft 1.18.1 there is such a constructor.
Have a look at what your version of the skeleton, zombie, villager, etc. does.

Just wanted to say again, thank you for helping me solve this problem I've been having! You are a real hero.
