Hello everyon, I'm new to modding but not to java, so take in consideration that I,ve almost 2 year of experience in java (It's not to brag but only to let you know that I can understand advanced java). My question would be, how to make an item render in your hand, I,ve seen soaryn in his dev doing so it was a staff who was changing color trought grade so it dark blue to blue to light blue to the next color I think you understand what I mean, also at the top of this wand there where 4 "crystal" going in circle. I wonder how to do this, I,ve looked at the soaryn video but it was far ahead in the devloppement of the wand so i couldn't see all the method he used and since I'm not familiar with the api of mcp/forge/minecraft I'm confuse.
By the way I've never created 3D object (Image) from blender or things like that, from code I did but from blender and importing it never had to, so I wonder if you guys know a tutorial for this or something simillar
So just to be clear my question would be : How can I make an item be "Alive" in your hand(rendered) and also for the item to change color but that is optional, again to be clear I'm not asking to do it for me I just need some key word to look around or a tutorial because I'm confuse and I can't find what I'm looking for
The video of the wand : http://www.twitch.tv/soaryn/b/456473235
Where we see the wand : 7:50 ; 1:54:00
PS1 : sorry for my bad english, I speak french
PS2 : Also take in account that I doN,t have alot of experience with mcp/forge/minecraft api, so if you want to answer the question itself instead of refering me to a tutorial or giving me some key word to look around, if you could be precise pelase
Thank in advance for anyone who will read this all text and be kind enought to help me
