I know this has been asked many times before, because i've looked at every single topic relating to this! However after trying many things, i failed to get it working! I would provide any code if i had anything relevant that could lead to something, but i really dont think i got far! I've looked at the source for MachineMuse's mod, but its too complicated and i couldnt take much from it! i've also seen LexManos' comment on "getArmorModel()" in Item.class but messed around with that and nothing! Just to make sure it even works, i assigned the model and render classes to an item and it works fine! however when equipped as armor, it manages to not work! Any suggestions would be absolutely appreciated!

Using the Something or other render event, you can render the model onto the player.

Im a bit confused by your comment... Can you explain a little more?

Umm, i'll try?

 

 

There is a rendering event that allows you to render models onto the player. Using this event, you render your models onto the player.

 

I just can't remember the name of the render event....

Can you see it in there? http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Event_Reference

 

But im pretty sure theres another way to do it!

I would say you are right And I also couldn't see it on that list, sorry. I also know someone had made a topic for this awhile ago... There were a few if I recall correctly. One was a tutorials type thing, another was questions about it. Try finding those

hehe seen every single one of them as i said in the OP! the tutorial one explained very little! i did try using his method and went a little further, but it doesnt load properly on the player, even though it does as an item with special render in the hand!

 

thanks anyways!

Lol, sometimes I read to fast and don't get all the information I need Sorry about that!

 

As for the actual rendering... I will look into it. I do know it can be done, because with a mod I am working with, we are rendering shields and wings and hats etc. on the player. I will look into the events and such that are being used and get back to you on this!

 

( Why didn't I think of this earlier??? Oh yeah... right... I had to fix up the natives first )

Well, I have found it! I don't really understand it very much though... I actually won't attempt to give you the code though, I will contact hydroflame and get him to explain this one, it will help a lot more.

What is wrong with using

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    public ModelBiped getArmorModel(EntityLivingBase entityLiving, ItemStack itemStack, int armorSlot)
    {
        return null;
    }

?

It worked last time I checked.
