TrunkS

1.) A class extending ModelBiped. 2.) Yes but you must bind the texture in the already mentioned class.

I had the same problem with my items. I solved it by setting up a switch statement in either the shouldUseRenderHelper() or the handleRenderType() method (go for the shouldUseRenderHelper one, I can't quite remember) and having it return false in the case INVENTORY. EDIT: whoops that only works for items implementing IItemRenderer , sorry...

Tried out some variations of the renderIndex and/or armorSlot params but it didn't change anything.

Sorry for not posting the code but there's really not much code to it ^^ Btw I'm using a techne made model (very basic with no rotation) and I've made another helmet without custom rendering code to test if this problem is caused by the render code and indeed it is. So anyway here's the code: @Mod Class: @Mod(modid = "TrunkSMod", name = "TrunkS Mod", version = "Dev v1") @NetworkMod(clientSideRequired = true, serverSideRequired = false) public class mod_Particles { public static Item helmetTest;

So, I made a helmet with custom render code some time ago which makes use of the getArmorModel() method in the Item class and a ModelBiped extending rendering class. It seems to work fine to that point but now comes the problem: When I put on the helmet it attaches to the whole body model but not separately to the head. Like when I run around the helmet follows the orientation of the rest of the body but when I move the mouse and look in another direction the helmet still faces the direction I run towards. Thanks in advance.

I tried to reproduce this by myself. But I'm running into some errors, so if you could specify them a little more I'd be thankful. 1. Do I have to make my Items class extend Item or ItemArmor (ran in some errors with the renderIndex while having it extend ItemArmor)? You obviously can't wear an Item so I tried it with the isValidArmor() method (it worked). 2. In the render() method in the ModelBiped extending class, do you render the ModelBiped model AND your model (btw I'm using normal techne made models, so I'm loading them in the constructor too) or something else? At the moment nothing renders when I put on my item (or at least is invisible ^^) but I really hope that you can clarify this because it sounds very good to me at the moment.

Sorry the problem was somewhere else. But thanks.

This is just a short question. I'm not quite sure about the use of isValidArmor() for Items. When I use it in my Items class (and add a @Override annotation) it tells me to override a supertype method from and I don't know why because I thought I got it right. Could someone just give me an example or explain it or something like that? Thanks in advance.

I guess I just solved the problem!? Well, actually it solved itself. There's some background info you need to know first: I changed the model (and texture) to a bigger one some time ago to see if it was the model class which was causing problems. So when I changed it back while I was trying out some of the suggestions given here it just worked (And it's spaming: "I guess I just rendered!" to my console). Because of the model beeing a bit tiny, I scaled it a little. But when I did so the model went up in the air relatively high. Maybe this effect was even bigger the bigger my model was and maybe I just couldn't see anything because the model was floating way above my head ^^. Anyway thank you all for helping me out, you were really helpful. Solved!

The complete path is: mcp/src/minecraft/trunkS/mod/textures/items/woodParticle.png (Starting from the actual forge folder)

I really don't know what's wrong. I still think there's something about the render registry...but I'm not sure. Oh boy, hopefully there'll be a solution for this somewhere in the near future.

No the if I change the path to /mods it gives me a file not found error again. And yes I'm using eclipse.

No...still the same problem. I also forgot to cast IItemRenderer to the ItemRenderWoodParticle class in the ClientProxy but that didn't change anything.

Okey I've added a .png and the path now looks like this: "/trunkS/mod/textures/items/woodParticle.png" I created the textures/items folders and placed the texturemap in it realising that there was no textures/items folder directly in the src/minecraft one Now I don't get errors any more but the items is still not showing up, wether in First- (I've added the EQUIPPED_FIRST_PERSON case) or Third-Person mode.

Unfortunately not When I add a .png it just gives me the same error

First off thank you for deciding to take a look at my problem I am currently trying to make a 3D rendered item. It is just a simple one by one cube because I am just testing out the whole render thing before jumping into more complicated models. After having managed to get the proxy registry right for it I am experiencing an error which is pretty embarrassing. Every time I switch to the slot where my item is located I am getting a Texture not found type of error though I already tried every path combination possible. In game the inventory slot icon is currently just a simple placeholder but the item is simply not showing up when held in hand. I know that this problem may sound a little nooby but I have the strange feeling that this has nothing to do with the path error. Well if you're still with me here's my code: Main mod class: package trunkS.mod; import trunkS.mod.common.CommonProxyTrunkS; import net.minecraft.block.Block; import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;
