This might be a bit out of my league currently but I am trying to figure out how to add custom equipment slots to the players inventory. I haven't seen too much on this anywhere and was wondering how I would go about it. I do know that this requires modifying base classes, but that's more or less fine by me, I was just wondering if anyone knows a good way to do this

Well in order to find out how minecraft does this, i would try and look at the different containers vanilla has and look at how it handles its itemStacks. And from there on i wouldn't edit base classes. You might want to make a custom inventory or something like that which will handle your custom "inventory". Also you would need to somehow override the vanilla minecraft gui or render your custom gui over the existing one.

Thats what i would think you would have to do, obviously you would want to have a couple of other classes related to it, but right now i don't really have any source in front of me so i can't really say.

 

Anyway good luck, its something that interests me too.

 

Also, doing something that is just out of your league is mostly a good way to learn new things.

Well the Server side uses containers to see a gui, and the client side uses the gui. So for "most" of the tileEntities like chests, furnaces etc are containers and gui's. The managing of slots is done in inventories as theres the player bar (9 slots) which is an inventory and the player inventory (3x9 slots) and so on there are more inventories, they gave them a name in order to give the inventory a certain size and name etc. Also each and every slot is managened in a certain class. the normal slots like the ones in a player inventory are being created using the standard Slot, but theres more variations of slots that have different purposes like the crafting slot which you can't put anything in, you just receive the ouput of a certain recipe (craftin/smelting). And i think (i am not completely sure) that armour has their own slot aswell.

      [1.18.2] Custom armor set extending DyeableArmorItem is dye-able, but not displaying

      By CatzRule81 · Posted

      I am not using hardcoded recipes, I'm using Vanilla's already existing code for leather armor dying. (via extending and implementing DyeableArmorItem / DyeableLeatherItem respectively) I have actually figured out that it's something to do with registering item colors to the ItemColors instance, but I'm trying to figure out where exactly in my mod's code I would be placing a call to the required event handler. Unfortunately the tutorial is criminally undescriptive. The most I've found is that it has to be done during client initialization. I'm currently trying to do the necessary setup via hijacking the item registry since trying to modify the item classes directly (via using SubscribeEvent in the item's constructor didn't work. Class so far: // mrrp mrow - mcmod item painter v1.0 - catzrule ch package catzadvitems.init; import net.minecraft.client.color.item.ItemColors; import net.minecraft.world.item.Item; import net.minecraftforge.registries.ObjectHolder; import net.minecraftforge.fml.event.lifecycle.FMLClientSetupEvent; import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod; import net.minecraftforge.eventbus.api.SubscribeEvent; import net.minecraftforge.client.event.ColorHandlerEvent; import catzadvitems.item.DyeableWoolArmorItem; @Mod.EventBusSubscriber(bus = Mod.EventBusSubscriber.Bus.MOD) public class Painter { @ObjectHolder("cai:dyeable_wool_chestplate") public static final Item W_CHEST = null; @ObjectHolder("cai:dyeable_wool_leggings") public static final Item W_LEGS = null; @ObjectHolder("cai:dyeable_wool_boots") public static final Item W_SOCKS = null; public Painter() { // left blank, idk if forge throws a fit if constructors are missing, not taking the chance of it happening. } @SubscribeEvent public static void init(FMLClientSetupEvent event) { new Painter(); } @Mod.EventBusSubscriber private static class ForgeBusEvents { @SubscribeEvent public static void registerItemColors(ColorHandlerEvent.Item event) { ItemColors col = event.getItemColors(); col.register(DyeableUnderArmorItem::getItemDyedColor, W_CHEST, W_LEGS, W_SOCKS); //placeholder for other dye-able items here later.. } } } (for those wondering, i couldn't think of a creative wool helmet name)

      [1.18.2] Custom armor set extending DyeableArmorItem is dye-able, but not displaying

      Maybe there's something happening in the 'leather armor + dye' recipe itself that would be updating the held item texture?

      [1.20.1] Difficulty getting custom player model to render

      By Shipwrecker · Posted

      @SubscribeEvent public static void onRenderPlayer(RenderPlayerEvent.Pre e) { e.setCanceled(true); model.renderToBuffer(e.getPoseStack(), pBuffer, e.getPackedLight(), 0f, 0f, 0f, 0f, 0f); //ToaPlayerRenderer.render(); } Since getting the render method from a separate class is proving to be bit of a brick wall for me (but seems to be the solution in older versions of minecraft/forge) I've decided to try and pursue using the renderToBuffer method directly from the model itself. I've tried this route before but can't figure out what variables to feed it for the vertexConsumer and still can't seem to figure it out; if this is even a path to pursue.  The vanilla model files do not include any form of render methods, and seem to be fully constructed from their layer definitions? Their renderer files seem to take their layers which are used by the render method in the vanilla MobRenderer class. But for modded entities we @Override this function and don't have to feed the method variables because of that? I assume that the render method in the extended renderer takes the layer definitions from the renderer classes which take those from the model files. Or maybe instead of trying to use a render method I should be calling the super from the renderer like   new ToaPlayerRenderer(context, false); Except I'm not sure what I would provide for context? There's a context method in the vanilla EntityRendererProvider class which doesn't look especially helpful. I've been trying something like <e.getEntity(), model<e.getEntity()>> since that generally seems to be what is provided to the renderers for context, but I don't know if it's THE context I'm looking for? Especially since the method being called doesn't want to take this or variations of this.   In short; I feel like I'm super super close but I have to be missing something obvious? Maybe this insane inane ramble post will provide some insight into this puzzle?
