[SackCastellon]

I want my custom bow to render as the vanilla one do:

Instead of the way it renders now:

Here's the code:

package SackCastellon.betterwood.items;

import java.util.List;

import net.minecraft.client.renderer.texture.IIconRegister;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraft.util.IIcon;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;
import SackCastellon.betterwood.api.Tabs;
import SackCastellon.betterwood.loader.LoreLoader;
import SackCastellon.betterwood.reference.Reference;

public class ItemBow extends net.minecraft.item.ItemBow {

private final IIcon[] iconArray = new IIcon[3];

    private final String material;
    
private final String materialLore;

private final String lore = LoreLoader.Material;

public ItemBow(ItemPartMaterial material)
    {
	this.setCreativeTab(Tabs.tabBW);
	this.setMaxStackSize(1);
	this.setUnlocalizedName("Bow");
	this.setMaxDamage(384);

	this.material = material.getMaterial();
	this.materialLore = material.getLore();
    }

@SuppressWarnings({ "rawtypes", "unchecked" })
@Override
public void addInformation(ItemStack itemStack, EntityPlayer player, List list, boolean par4)
{
	list.add(this.lore + ": " + this.materialLore);

	if (itemStack.isItemEnchanted())
	{
		list.add("");
	}
}

    @Override
    public String getUnlocalizedName(ItemStack itemStack)
    {
        return super.getUnlocalizedName() + "." + this.material;
    }
    
    private String getPathForPull(int pull)
    {
    	return Reference.TexturePath + "bow/" + pull + "/" + this.material;
    }

    @Override
    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    public void registerIcons(IIconRegister iconRegister)
    {
        this.itemIcon = iconRegister.registerIcon(this.getPathForPull(0));

        for (int i = 0; i < 3; ++i)
        {
            this.iconArray[i] = iconRegister.registerIcon(this.getPathForPull(i + 1));
        }
    }

    @Override
    public IIcon getIcon(ItemStack stack, int renderPass, EntityPlayer player, ItemStack usingItem, int useRemaining) {

    	if(player.getItemInUse() == null)
    	{
    		return this.itemIcon;
    	}
    	
    	int Pulling = stack.getMaxItemUseDuration() - useRemaining;
    		
    	if (Pulling >= 18)
    	{
    		return iconArray[2];
    	}

    	else if (Pulling > 13)
    	{
    		return iconArray[1];
    	}

    	else if (Pulling > 0)
    	{
    		return iconArray[0];
    	}       
    	
    	return this.itemIcon;
    }
}

 

Thanks for helping

Use a IItemRenderer.

Use a IItemRenderer.

 

I've been testing for a while but i didn't get the result i wanted.

 

So, could you recommend me a good tutorial or else?

 

Thanks.

Like Bantasaurusrex said...

Use a IItemRenderer.

 

Get the texture binding for items, then use Tesselator and GL11 for rendering.

Remember to *implement IItemRenderer*

.isFull3D() affects the item orientation as per the screenshots.
