[1.8] anoing bug / features founded at setting item textures

perromercenary00 · December 7, 2014

good days

changes to this version at first seemed to me to give me an easy way to do complex things, but now I'm pretty annoyed with what and found

well to set a texture to an item you must first create the class without the this.settexture tag, second you must create a file .json pointing to the texture file you want to mount, third must create texture in png format, for you must register this texture whith this item seting the metadata number zero for default whith

Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher().register(MercenaryModItems.potato , 0 , new ModelResourceLocation("modmercenario:"+"potato" , "inventory"));

and this must be done in the init() section of the principal class of the mod , not preinit but init don´t posinit

but wen you create multiplex items the textures get mixed and the you have the pala_carbon_carbon spade whit the texture of the charcoalCompreso and thus for the rest.

i discovered that the order in which the objects in the itemmodfile affects the order in which the texture is loaded, so i create a custom tab then send all my items to that custom tab to see the order in which minecraft hass establish the ids and then put the objects in that order in my modItems class.

witch solves the problem of textures mixed.

the second feature / bug I found is that for minecraft accept a .json a png texture must be a registered item with exactly the same name as the json which means that for minecraft accept the potato.json must be an item named exactly potato

I wanted to create a meta potato with different textures implying different json file named potato0.json potato1.json potato2.json pointing to the three textures but minecraft just get the texture from potato.json ignoring the others.

adding mi moditemsfile to clarificate the thing whit the textures mixed

well i have pictures to show its happend

this is the rigth order whit the rigth textures loaded notese the firsitem name modmercenario_aceroMercenario which i take the icon for the tab

https://www.dropbox.com/s/20x37i8l10ovt8q/texturaBien.png?dl=0

then i exchange positions in the MercenaryModItems class to look like this

barradeAcero = new mercenarymod.items.materiales.barradeAcero(); // Item Id=4097

aceroMercenario = new mercenarymod.items.materiales.aceroMercenario(); // Item Id=4096

and now the textures are exchanged even the tab icon is afected barradeAcero has now the texture of aceroMercenario , and aceroMercenario has the texture for barradeAcero

I wanted to create a meta potato with different textures implying different json file named potato0.json potato1.json potato2.json pointing to the three textures but minecraft just get the texture from potato.json ignoring the others.

That's because the metadata is handled INSIDE the json file.

perromercenary00 · December 8, 2014

can you give me an example ,

when i look in the minecraft code coal and charcoal has diferents jsons named coal.json and charcoal.json the same goes for the inks

Draco18s · December 8, 2014

Having not worked with 1.8, I unfortunately can't tell you. I'm basing my information off what I've gleaned from reading the forums and maybe I'm wrong.

perromercenary00 · December 8, 2014

is become two post for the same issue

i got the thread for the multiitem / sub item in

http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,25827.0.html

i gto something new there

perromercenary00 · December 8, 2014

if i have a set of items created in the forge i have like nine,

and then you remove some of this then ids get messed up in the world,

the relation texture <==> itemid get messed up and or you get mixed items whit wrong texture or some items will not load any texture although everithing is rigth whit the json the textures and the testuse register class

how do you solved ?

dont now, but if you fireup the minecraft and create another world in this world the textures go back to work normal

perromercenary00 · December 13, 2014

this is another feature /bug founded

and the reason for many post on the forum say mi iteblock dont load texture.

let say a create an item named unlocalizated name = "aceromercenario" and do create it in a class named aceroMercenario.java

so i created a json named aceroMercenario.json to load aceromercenario.png

as you can see now the spotable trouble are the names.

minecraft base its search in the unlocalizated name, in this case it shall not load the texture because it is lokking for a json named exactly whit the unlocalizated name of the item

but i name my json whith the item whith a case diferent name.

the easy way to solve this is set everything to lowercase names the other thing you can do is register the wrong_named.json whith the item using ModelBakery class

example

my unlocalizated name is "aceromercenario"

but my item is register in my modItems class like "aceroMercenario" aceroMercenario = new mercenarymod.items.materiales.aceroMercenario();

the wrong_named json is aceroMercenario.json

so i do register the wrong_named json whith my item in the textures class or the preinit of main class using modelbakery

ModelBakery.addVariantName(MercenaryModItems.aceroMercenario, new String[]{"modmercenario:aceroMercenario"});

then,

Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher().register(MercenaryModItems.aceroMercenario, 0, new ModelResourceLocation("modmercenario:aceroMercenario" , "inventory"));

and now the texture loads

I must add for the blocks you can set manualy the texture to use in the inventory,

for the block in the world il will always look for a json whit the unlocalizated name of the block

so if a i do

Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher().register(Item.getItemFromBlock(MercenaryModBlocks.multicara), 0, new ModelResourceLocation("apple" , "inventory"));

it loads the apple texture and shows the block in inventory whit the apple, but when you put the block on the world it still take the textures from models/block/multicara.json

there must be somewhere a method to force the block to load a custom json whit diferent name.

Thanks for sharing your insights, I did not use the same resourcelocation / variant name for getItemModelMesher().register() and ModelBakery.addVariantName()

After using the same name for both, it actually did load the texture, but only the same texture for all my 15 metadata-variant blocks

[Edit:] Ok all the same texture was my error. It's working now \o/ Thanks!
