I have an item that I want to have a 3D model like the portal gun or gravity gun mod. I have already made the model in techie and the texture. I have also tried to follow iChun's video tutorial on how to do it, but the video is not made very well and I wasn't able to follow what he was doing. Could someone explain to me step-by-step how to do it, or at least give me some example code? Thanks!

I should have explained this earlier, I am VERY new to Java, telling me to use a certain class means almost nothing to me... What I really need is an in-depth explanation on how to tell Minecraft to render an Item as a 3D model. But thanks for trying to help!

Then this is the place you should start before anything else mate :)

I promise you it's worth the time as you will save your self a lot more time in the future by spending time on this now before you go further.

 

This is both an intro to Java and to minecraft modding at the same time. Ending up with rather advance stuff.

Including rendering of 3d models inside a gui and other stuff!

 

Start there, then you will be much better off when you continue ;)

 

Also this blogg is an valuable resource to have at hand when you are new to minecraft's inner workings:

Pretty much. On a side note, I feel like the BIGGEST idiot right now... I was accidentally referring to the item id in registerItemRenderer as its original item id, not example.itemID(). Well, it works now (need to get textures and scaling fixed), but thanks all for the help!

      updateShape functionality deep dive

      By Sandermall · Posted

      Hello all. I'm currently grappling with the updateShape method in a custom class extending Block.  My code currently looks like this: The conditionals in CheckState are there to switch blockstate properties, which is working fine, as it functions correctly every time in getStateForPlacement.  The problem I'm running into is that when I update a state, the blocks seem to call CheckState with the position of the block which was changed updated last.  If I build a wall I can see the same change propagate across. My question thus is this: is updateShape sending its return to the neighbouring block?  Is each block not independently executing the updateShape method, thus inserting its own current position?  The first statement appears to be true, and the second false (each block is not independently executing the method). I have tried to fix this by saving the block's own position to a variable myPos at inception, and then feeding this in as CheckState(myPos) but this causes a worse outcome, where all blocks take the update of the first modified block, rather than just their neighbour.  This raises more questions than it answers, obviously: how is a different instance's variable propagating here?  I also tried changing it so that CheckState did not take a BlockPos, but had myPos built into the body - same problem. I have previously looked at neighbourUpdate and onNeighbourUpdate, but could not find a way to get this to work at all.  One post on here about updatePostPlacement and other methods has proven itself long superceded.  All other sources on the net seem to be out of date. Many thanks in advance for any help you might offer me, it's been several days now of trying to get this work and several weeks of generally trying to get round this roadblock.  - Sandermall

      crash dump

      By djdoyle1556 · Posted

      sorry, I might be stupid, but how do I open it? because the only options I have are too X out, copy it, which doesn't work and send crash report, which doesn't show it to me, also, sorry for taking so long.

      Can you reproduce this with version 55.0.21? A whole lot of plant placement issues were just fixed in this PR.
