Hey, so i've been stuck on this problem for a couple of hours now.

 

I have my item and I'm trying to get it rendered as a block on the players head.

And I just can't seem to get the isvalidarmor to work

 

this question may seem kinda basic but I do really need your help,

whatever I try I can't seem to get it to work.

 

public boolean isValidArmor(ItemStack stack, int armorType, Entity entity)

    {

 

    }

 

Thanks greetings stijnhero

How are we supposed to help when you give us blank code?

I don't have anycode only the item code:

 

public class ItemCoal extends Item {

 

private static int armorType = 0;

public ItemCoal(int par1) {

super(par1);

this.setCreativeTab(Main.tab...);

this.setUnlocalizedName(Mining.ITEM_COAL_NAME_UN);

}

 

@Override

    public boolean isValidArmor(ItemStack stack, int armorType, Entity entity)

    {

??

    }

 

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

private Icon icon;

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

@Override

public void registerIcons(IconRegister par1IconRegister) {

itemIcon = par1IconRegister.registerIcon(Icons.getIcon("coal"));

}

 

}

 

sorry the code tag isn't working for me somehow

First, armor needs to extend ItemArmor not Item. Second there are tutorials for Armor sets. If done correctly you wont need to use isValidArmor.

I want to add custom rendered armor so thats why i'm extending item not itemarmor. and using isvalidarmor, but i cant seem to get isvalidarmor to work so i can equip my item.

1) You MUST extend ItemArmor or your armor will not provide any protection when worn, even if you do get the isValidArmor working.

 

2) Custom renders can be done just fine by extending ItemArmor.

Draco beat me to it. Anyways, google for custom 3d armor rendering. There is a tutorial on the Minecraft Forums for it.

Okay I see I thank you all for the help and I'll take a look into it! I couldn't find that armor tutorial because I googled on custom 3d armor models ^^ but I've got it now
