Recursion

I will definitely try to render the player again. But can you explain why you would go for a dummy entity? Right now i am still weighing the two approaches: 1. Making another dummy entity and setViewEntity to this one. 2. Inspect how vanilla does the rendering and make opengl calls somewhere sensible and sort of trying both of them. Regarding the 2nd one, i was able to translate camera(by gl calls) to a certain position in the world after the forge rotation in orientCamera(), but that messed up how the camera rotates(It doesnt rotate about the new position, which makes sense, i guess). But I'm not sure how to fix it.

This approach is easy enough, but by setting renderViewEntity, I am not able to see my self anymore

I am currently developing a mod that involves changing the camera position(without moving the player entity or creating another dummy entity). I located the class net.minecraft.client.renderer.EntityRenderer, but found that, what minecraft does for rendering sleeping etc. is to translate/ rotate, which will, in my case, result in blocks getting culled if the camera is behind player. Is there a way to directly change the camera position? Thanks for helping!
