Hello, I'm trying to render a custom item. I've completed the 3rd person rendering without a problem. However, I cannot get the renderer to work for third person as there are some variables I am missing. To test the item renderer I've simply copied the code from ItemRenderer, I will change this later to suit the mod. The code uses variables either private in the ItemRenderer class or passed into the method. The variables are equippedProgress, prevEquippedProgress and the partial tick. How can I access these variables from my custom ItemRenderer?

 

EDIT: No matter what I seem to do in my first person section, nothing seems to change..

@Override
public void renderItem(ItemRenderType type, ItemStack item, Object... data) {
	EntityLivingBase par1EntityLivingBase = (EntityLivingBase) data[1];
	switch (type) {
	case EQUIPPED: {
                    // This works
	}
	case EQUIPPED_FIRST_PERSON: {
                    // How can I get this to work? links?
	}
	default:
		break;
	}
}

Hi

 

I'm not sure why you need equippedProgress and prevEquippedProgress?  - these are used by the rendering code to position the player's arm (and item) before control passes to your custom renderer, so you don't really need to worry about it?

 

Perhaps if you could describe in a bit more detail what you're trying to do?

 

There are a few links below which might (or might not..) be helpful
