[Sokaya]

Hi! Hwo to change player skin in modification? I tried to change RenderPlayer using RenderRegistry, but i recevie this error:

Failed to load texture java.io.FileNotFoundException

I know i have to download this skin to mine disc but it doesn't work:

    public static ThreadDownloadImageData getDownloadImageSkin(ResourceLocation par0ResourceLocation, String par1Str)
    {
        return getDownloadImage(par0ResourceLocation, getSkinUrl(par1Str), texture, new ImageBufferDownload());
    }

    /*public static ThreadDownloadImageData getDownloadImageCape(ResourceLocation par0ResourceLocation, String par1Str)
    {
        return getDownloadImage(par0ResourceLocation, getCapeUrl(par1Str), (ResourceLocation)null, (IImageBuffer)null);
    }*/

    private static ThreadDownloadImageData getDownloadImage(ResourceLocation par0ResourceLocation, String par1Str, ResourceLocation par2ResourceLocation, IImageBuffer par3IImageBuffer)
    {
        TextureManager var4 = Minecraft.getMinecraft().getTextureManager();
        Object var5 = var4.getTexture(par0ResourceLocation);

        if (var5 == null)
        {
            var5 = new ThreadDownloadImageData(par1Str, par2ResourceLocation, par3IImageBuffer);
            var4.loadTexture(par0ResourceLocation, (ITextureObject)var5);
        }

        return (ThreadDownloadImageData)var5;
    }

Thanks for help:)

Skins are being held in AbstractClientPlayer.class

 

They are private so you have to use reflection to access them and override with your own.

IS this code good?:

	@Override
protected ResourceLocation getEntityTexture(AbstractClientPlayer par1AbstractClientPlayer) {
        String var1 = par1AbstractClientPlayer.getCommandSenderName();

        if (!var1.isEmpty())
        {
            this.locationSkin = getLocationSkin(var1);
            //this.locationCape = getLocationCape(var1);
            this.downloadImageSkin = getDownloadImageSkin(this.locationSkin, var1);
            //this.downloadImageCape = getDownloadImageCape(this.locationCape, var1);
        }
	return HPsRPAbstractClientPlayer.getSkinHP();
	try
	{
		Method method = AbstractClientPlayer.class.getDeclaredMethod("getSkinUrl", String.class);
		method.setAccessible(true);
		method.invoke(null, "http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/link");
		return par1AbstractClientPlayer.getLocationSkin();
	}
	catch (Exception e)
	{
		e.printStackTrace();
	}
	return null;
}
