Making items have a custom model when held

This is pretty easy to do, actually. Use the IItemRenderer interface to override item rendering. Here's an example:

 

package whatever;
import net.minecraft.src.*;
import net.minecraftforge.client.IItemRenderer;

public class TestRenderer implements IItemRenderer 
{
public boolean handleRenderType(ItemStack item, ItemRenderType type) 
{
	if (type == ItemRenderType.EQUIPPED) { return true; }
	return false;
}

public boolean shouldUseRenderHelper(ItemRenderType type, ItemStack item, ItemRendererHelper helper) 
{
	return false;
}

public void renderItem(ItemRenderType type, ItemStack item, Object... data) 
{
	if (type == ItemRenderType.EQUIPPED) {
		RenderBlocks blockRenderer = (RenderBlocks)data[0];
		EntityLiving entity = (EntityLiving)data[1]; // entity holding the item
		// render item here
	}
}
}

 

Register it like this in your client proxy:

MinecraftForgeClient.registerItemRenderer(ITEMID, new TestRenderer());
