[1.7.2] adding wearable items that arent armor

[sigurd4]

i cant find any tutorial on this, but i know it is possible because skull items do it, but i just cant find what makes it or armour able to be worn by the player. am i able to do this to my own item without changing any game files and without using the ItemArmor class?

It is possible, but it won't be easy. 

 

The easiest way it to make it armor.  What is the reason you don't want to?  Give it zero armor value, ect.  The render code is all standard, ect.

1. i dont want to have a recipe for it, which i think ItemArmor forces you to have and automaticly uses the same pattern as other armorpieces with a chosen item for craftin recipe.

2. i want to have 0 armor value.

3. i only want a head piece, and not any chestplate etc.

ItemArmor doesn't force recipes, you can make the protection value 0, if you don't want more than a helmet then make only a helmet.

ok. how do i add an enummaterial then?

[dude22072]

public static ArmorMaterial NAME = EnumHelper.addArmorMaterial("NAME", DURABILITY, new int[]{0, 0, 0, 0}, 0);

This would suffice for you needs. Replace NAME with what you'd like to call it and DURABILITY with the durability of the armour.

I've got a crown with stats that is the only peice of armor for one set.  It has no recipe and works fine.  It imparts no armor benefit.
