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!

no trust me theres worst, at least you admit it

 

some peopel want to just mod and dont care when we say they should learn a bit before

 

 

but some of them dont even know how to create a method, they just know ctrl+c and ctrl+v

Welcome to the most common feeling in the life of a modder ;)

    • Hi everyone, I'm currently developing a Forge 1.21 mod for Minecraft and I want to display a custom HUD overlay for a minigame. My goal: When the game starts, all players should see an item/block icon (from the base game, not a custom texture) plus its name/text in the HUD – similar to how the bossbar overlay works. The HUD should appear centered above the hotbar (or at a similar prominent spot), and update dynamically (icon and name change as the target item changes). What I've tried: I looked at many online tutorials and several GitHub repos (e.g. SeasonHUD, MiniHUD), but most of them use NeoForge or Forge versions <1.20 that provide the IGuiOverlay API (e.g. implements IGuiOverlay, RegisterGuiOverlaysEvent). In Forge 1.21, it seems that neither IGuiOverlay nor RegisterGuiOverlaysEvent exist anymore – at least, I can't import them and they are missing from the docs and code completion. I tried using RenderLevelStageEvent as a workaround but it is probably not intended for custom HUDs. I am not using NeoForge, and switching the project to NeoForge is currently not an option for me. I tried to look at the original minecraft source code to see how elements like hearts, hotbar etc are drawn on the screen but I am too new to Minecraft modding to understand. What I'm looking for: What is the correct way to add a custom HUD element (icon + text) in Forge 1.21, given that the previous overlay API is missing? Is there a new recommended event, callback, or method in Forge 1.21 for custom HUD overlays, or is everyone just using a workaround? Is there a minimal open-source example repo for Forge 1.21 that demonstrates a working HUD overlay without relying on NeoForge or deprecated Forge APIs? My ideal solution: Centered HUD element with an in-game item/block icon (from the base game's assets, e.g. a diamond or any ItemStack / Item) and its name as text, with a transparent background rectangle. It should be visible to the players when the mini game is running. Easy to update the item (e.g. static variable or other method), so it can change dynamically during the game. Any help, code snippets, or up-to-date references would be really appreciated! If this is simply not possible right now in Forge 1.21, it would also help to know that for sure. Thank you very much in advance!
    • The simple answer is there is not an easy way. You would need to know how to program in Java, as well as at least some familiarity with how Forge works so you could port the differences. You would also need the sourcecode for the original mod, and permission from the author to modify it, if they did not use some sort of open source license. So it's not impossible, but it would take some effort, but doing so would open up a whole new world of possibilities for you!
    • Does it still crash if you remove holdmyitems? Looks like that mod doesn't work on a server as far as I can tell from the error.  
    • Crashes the server when trying to start. Error code -1. Log
