1.7.10 OpenGl help: rendering a knife so that it looks like it is stabing.

Featured Replies

Posted

In my mod I am trying to create a knife that switched between 2 modes, stabbing and normal. When it is in normal mode, it is rendered just like a sword, but when it is in stabbing mode I want it to be rotated 180 degrees so that it looks like the player is holding it like this http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/hand-holding-knife-isolated-white-background-33425579.jpg

 

I have an IItemRenderer set up, and it works fine, I just don't know how to rotate the knife so that it looks the way I want it to.

 

This is my current IItemRenderer:

public class KnifeRendering implements IItemRenderer {

    private static final ResourceLocation RES_ITEM_GLINT = new ResourceLocation("textures/misc/enchanted_item_glint.png");
@Override
public boolean handleRenderType(ItemStack item, ItemRenderType type) {
	if(item.getItem() instanceof UniversalKnife)
	{
		UniversalKnife k=(UniversalKnife)item.getItem();
		return (type==ItemRenderType.EQUIPPED||type==ItemRenderType.EQUIPPED_FIRST_PERSON)&&k.getIsStabing(item);
	}
	return false;
}

@Override
public boolean shouldUseRenderHelper(ItemRenderType type, ItemStack item,
		ItemRendererHelper helper) {
	// TODO Auto-generated method stub
	return true;
}

    public static void renderItemIn2D(Tessellator p_78439_0_, float p_78439_1_, float p_78439_2_, float p_78439_3_, float p_78439_4_, int p_78439_5_, int p_78439_6_, float p_78439_7_)

Everything works fine, I just have absolutely no idea how to achieve the effect I am looking for.

You will certainly have to use some storage type - either choose NBT per ItemStack (state of knife) or IExtendedEntityProps and hold boolean value for rotation. IEEP will be better ofc. (one per player).

 

Then in your renderer you will have to operate on literally basic java/GL.

Make If for your rotation boolean and then just try using:

        GL11.glRotatef(0.0F, 0.0F, 0.0F, 0.0F);
        GL11.glTranslatef(0.0F, 0.0F, 0.0F);

Translatef moves center of item by some value (in item I think center is some corner, idk).

Rotatef - obviously rotates.

 

I am too lazy to come up with right values so hit: Launch MC in debug mode get you item to hand and start having fun with those 2 lines.
