[MC-54008] Minecraft crashes when loading world with item frames / placing item frames

From what I can see from this report, Item frames have some problems rendering and cause a crash.

I can confirm this, it happens in single player and multiplayer.

Thomas Lawes 2014-04-30T11:47:03Z

Can confirm, it crashed upon me moving my player

Matthew Isaac 2014-04-30T11:52:34Z

Confirm. It crashed upon opening my creative world. The crash report showed the error with the rendering of item frames.

Tyler Wheaton 2014-04-30T12:18:36Z

Confirmed. I'm locked out of a few of my worlds.
(Edit: I also tested an item frame in a new world, and the game crashed again.)

joris boom 2014-04-30T12:23:50Z

Can confirm, happened when joining my snapshot testing world (creative). It has item frames in it.

qmagnet 2014-04-30T12:38:24Z

Confirmed.

mert 2014-04-30T13:01:38Z

Item frames cause this.

Ethan Brown 2014-04-30T13:03:21Z

The same god dang thing happened to me too! I just placed an ItemFrame in my world and it suddenly crashed!
100% Confirmed

Edness 2014-04-30T15:07:51Z

Confirmed. Literally every single one of my worlds aren't usable.

Jonathan Bailey 2014-04-30T15:50:43Z

Confirmed.
Item renders fine in inventory, on hotbar and as dropped item, but placing it on a block whilst looking crashes the game.
Happens for pre-placed item frames as well as ones put down in new worlds.
Crash report gives: java.lang.NullPointerException: Rendering entity in world, and lower down gives Entity Type: ItemFrame

Kieran 2014-04-30T16:42:38Z

Confirmed. I see the game for a split second and then it crashes and blames item frames.

Nicklas Ekstrand 2014-04-30T17:30:06Z

Confirmed. I can't play on any of my worlds. Crashes all the time.

LazyMasterGamer 2014-04-30T17:48:18Z

I also got that when I tried to place one on my own server, can't join again 😞

McDodge34 2014-04-30T18:09:19Z

I can confirm this, I really hope this will be fixed before the weekend, I really want to have fun with the new features this weekend.

Edit : I fixed the issue by removing the item frames for now we didn't use a lot of them in our current world so I don't think they will be missed till they fix this issue, I went back to 14w11b on my world and removed all of the item frames, then switched the server back to the new 14w18a and have no problems to report beside a lot of light bugs on the stairs and half slabs.

LazyMasterGamer 2014-04-30T18:15:59Z

If someone want a tip: try to look away quickly of the item frames when loading world/loging in before they try to load and then remove them with a /setblock or /fill command.

ChaofanJ 2014-04-30T18:16:22Z

Confirmed, I hope Mojang gets this fixed quickly.

o1oo11oo 2014-04-30T18:20:27Z

The easiest way to get rid of Item Frames would be to use "/kill @e[type=ItemFrame]" or just delete them with McEdit.

ChaofanJ 2014-04-30T18:27:49Z

For everyone who's using 14w18a the only way to fix this without removing the item frame(s) is to downgrade your version back to 14w17a, since this version didn't add any new blocks it won't corrupt your world.

Maxim 2014-04-30T18:41:29Z

Confirmed

Fay 2014-04-30T19:06:35Z

Confirmed though the /kill command above can be used to fix it "The easiest way to get rid of Item Frames would be to use '/kill @e[type=ItemFrame]'"

Alberto Gonçalo Carvalho de Oliveira 2014-04-30T19:11:36Z

I read the crash report and i wanted to see if item frames really were to blame. instead of a new world i just used my single player world and as expected minecraft crashed, except now i can't load that world anymore i tried downgrading as well, but it doesn't even show in the world list, anyone know how to fix this, if it can be fixed at all? Thanks.

Joshua Bonacorsi 2014-04-30T19:18:21Z

Tested and Confirmed.
I had to downgrade one of my worlds because the game crashed if I got too close to the centre of the map due to the fact that there were 2 item frames hanging on the wall.

Christopher Martin 2014-04-30T19:34:31Z

I crash on log-in. I am in an area with many item frames. I downgraded to 14w17a and all was well again.

Touya Ask 2014-04-30T19:36:42Z

confirmed
I can't move in my world

Nick DiBattista 2014-04-30T20:43:03Z

Yup, can confirm. Game crashes upon loading a world with item frames.

destruc7i0n 2014-04-30T21:01:50Z

Confirmed

Sparkpin 2014-04-30T21:20:18Z

Confirmed.

Kasra Ghaffari 2014-04-30T21:22:28Z

Confirmed, i had to go in MCedit to remove it

Dlawso the Really Lucky Rabbit 2014-04-30T21:27:32Z

Obviously confirmed.

Sam Bone 2014-04-30T22:05:50Z

sorry I duplicated it 😞

Cole 2014-04-30T22:12:56Z

Confirmed, but till then, can't you just /kill @e[type=ItemFrame] ?

Joshua Patino 2014-04-30T22:47:49Z

if you downgrade to 14w17b the game works perfectly.

Sam Bone 2014-04-30T23:01:24Z

14w17b?

Timoteo DAvi 2014-05-01T00:05:02Z

Go to 14w17b and do /kill @e[type=ItemFrame]

Spencer Fox 2014-05-01T00:43:17Z

There is no 14w17b. There is 14w17a.

John 2014-05-01T00:47:51Z

This happened to me I hope they fix it soon D:

Spencer Fox 2014-05-01T00:49:49Z

also mine is a duplicate

Brad Gray 2014-05-01T01:01:35Z

Can confirm as well. This really needs to be fixed.

Ty Dolney 2014-05-01T02:16:59Z

Same thing is happening to our smp server. Lucky one of our players was far away from any item frame so we quickly teleported to his location and can play. However as soon as we get close to a chunk that contains an item frame, CRASH! We are just staying away from item frames until a fix comes along.

Thomas Mandeno 2014-05-01T03:21:35Z

confirmed item frames crashing on mine 14w18a

paws 2014-05-01T05:16:48Z

Confirmed for me as well D:

sippapard 2014-05-01T05:43:15Z

Confirmed

Quinn Roundy 2014-05-01T06:23:33Z

same issue, latest snapshot, creative mode. as soon as item frame is place on a block it crashes client (which then gave me a teddy bear, thank you for that) and trying to load it up again is useless as the world crashes on load now. Have to create a new world. Using Windows 8.1 64bit (java 64bit) running total of 16gb of mem (4gb allocated to java for minecraft) Having item frame in inventory and hold one in hand doesn't seem to cause problems, the crash occurs immediately as the item frame is places on a solid block.

ChaofanJ 2014-05-01T06:26:33Z

For everyone using 14w18a you should downgrade back to 14w17a until this is resolved, this is especially important for Servers as it can affect many players. also using /kill command to destroy the Item Frames isn't a good idea either.

NOTE: downgrading will not corrupt your world.

Dlawso the Really Lucky Rabbit 2014-05-01T09:34:23Z

@ChaofanJ, you DON'T need to downgrade. Just DON'T place item frames!

Christopher Martin 2014-05-01T09:49:15Z

37 votes, 40 odd duplicate issues and it's still marked unconfirmed and unassigned...

frustbox 2014-05-01T09:58:33Z

The first of may is a holiday in Sweden. The people working at Mojang are enjoying some time off. That's also why the snapshot was released one day in advance, on wednesday, April 30th. This bug will hopefully get fixed on friday.

Until then, downgrading seems like the best option.

@Blah: This bug is not about placing item frames. It's about rendering item frames in the world. So this also affects users with existing worlds with item frames in them. As soon as the world loads it crashes the game. The only way to play such worlds, is to downgrade.

jochemjojoNL 2014-05-01T10:41:38Z

Same problem

lorenzo rota 2014-05-01T13:40:35Z

Here is a vague but temporary solution for those who really don't mind having item frames removed from the game until there is a proper bug fix.

This is going to remove Item Frames from your 14w18a jar file, so if you'd rather not remove ItemFrames from this version (even though it crashes minecraft if you place them) then do not proceed and wait for Mojang to release fix, or modify the code yourself.

If you do not mind removing ItemFrames from the game to be able to play on 14w18a on a map that does render the ItemFrame entity;

Simply replace the current snapshot version (14w18a) in /versions/ in the minecraft folder with 14w18a-custom

This custom version does not contain cce.class, which is needed to render the ItemFrame entity.

PS: Don't worry, this does not remove any ItemFrames in your Minecraft Map, but instead it will simply not render them.

Remember that this does not resolve the issue, but is useful incase you want to play on your Map and are experiencing this issue

Pika who 2014-05-01T21:25:00Z

I have the same problem too

Daniel McQ 2014-05-02T02:04:34Z

It seems that signs can cause this error to occur, too. I was able to move my character to the nether where I had no item frames, but when I looked at a sign, the game crashed.

Reece Broughton 2014-05-02T03:42:05Z

My Minecraft 14w18a crashes when logging into a world with item frames or when an item frame is placed as well. (Submitted crash report to Mojang through the launcher)

PappaDavid 2014-05-02T08:15:55Z

I draw a premature conclusion that this "Fix Version: Future version (1.8 ?)" means 1.8 will be released this week. 😉

Fenhl (Max Dominik Weber) 2014-05-02T08:34:17Z

@unknown: No, that actually just means that it will be fixed in the next 1.8 snapshot.

Alvin Wilta 2014-05-02T15:33:38Z

duh i have the same problem and i can't get inside my map again! how'd this happen??? I LOST EVERYTHING IN MY MAPS! D:

user-f2760 2014-05-02T15:34:58Z

update to 14w18b

jochemjojoNL 2014-05-02T17:20:49Z

Thank you Dinnerbone

Dlawso the Really Lucky Rabbit 2014-05-02T20:06:41Z

A duplicate of this report (MC-54405) is claiming that the game crashes upon loading a world in 14w18b. According to the crash report, there were item frames, which might've caused the crash.

I'm thinking that MC-54405 needs to be looked into, and if confirmed, reopen this if necessary.

Preben Gjelsvik 2014-05-02T22:15:40Z

@Blah the crash report in MC-54405 says that the crash occured in 14w18a not 14w18b.

Nate Met 2014-05-04T12:26:15Z

it says to back up worlds before using snapshot... now you know... know you should

Jeff Daugherty 2016-01-11T19:40:43Z

This issue is happening on CU31 now. I can't find an updated thread so I am putting this here. If I missed it I apologize. Everytime I try to place an item frame the game freezes. I am on XBOX 360. Thanks.

[Mod] redstonehelper 2016-01-11T19:41:48Z

Console bugs go here: https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCCE

shufboyardee 2016-01-11T19:47:43Z

@unknown, if you search for item frame bugs within the console edition bug tracker, and you really can't find your issue, it's best to create a new issue for the console edition, rather than post an update to a PC edition issue. They are two different trackers because they are two different games, with two different sets of developers that read these issues.

Jeff Daugherty 2016-01-11T20:08:12Z

Reporting for my kid. Thanks for the help I will go to the link above.
