partialTickTime getting fast

Hello,

I'm making a block that renders a EntityItem on top of it. Now i wan't this item to be spinning. I'm using this code:

RenderManager.instance.renderEntityWithPosYaw(((PoseblockTileEntity)tileentity).item, 0, 0, 0, 0, (float)ticks);

ticks += 1.0;

The item is spinning, but over time it gets faster and faster. I thought it need to reset the ticks, but when i do

if (ticks > 100)
{
       ticks = 0;
}

It just stops right in the middle of the animation and plays it from scratch.

I's there a value at where i can reset, so i't doesn't look like it's beginning from scratch?

Thank you!

I would go with basic math and try 180 or 360. It is an angle you know...

Hello,

Nope, 360 is not working, and i've noticed that the block is spinning faster, even when i reset the ticks. That's strange.

Hello,

Thank you for your REALLY long answer. I understood parts of it, but not all. So i'm passing the one parameter that's a float, i think that's the right, because partialTickTime is also a float. But now the item is flickering. If i'm just passing a 0 it's not. So i think i should

use glRotatef (argh, i don't know which font you're using for programming stuff) but i don't know the arguments to make it spin (I experimented a bit, but i can't get it to work).

Can you guys help me?

Hello,

WOW, thank you very much! Now it's working perfectly, looking so cool, with glScalef(10, 10, 10)

This is now

SOLVED
