[1.8] how to use worldRendering to render an item.

As of 1.8 IItemRenderer has been deprecated and EntityItem is always rendered the same (using .json model).

 

To "override" it you would need to make custom EntityItem (extension) with custom renderer registered (like for any other entity).

Then operate on your custom renderer.

 

That's what I did ;p

 

P.S - I might not understood your problem - you could be more precise :)

1.7.10 is no longer supported by forge, you are on your own.

Are you talking about placed block or block as an item?

 

Block as an item (in inventory) are represented by ItemBlock (or BlockItem, i don't remember) and when dropped into world they are still treated as EntityItem.

 

If you are referring to placed-blocks then there are several ways.

If you are looking for simple, yet not cubic shape:

Have look at how .json models work (Blocks section):

Code examples:

For more advanced stuff (custom models) you will need TileEntitySpecialRenderer or ISmartBlockModel, depends on what you want to render. All those classes are either in minecraft.client package or minecraftforge.client.model

 

I don't have much experience here aside from very simple renderer for my crystals xD Ask TGG (GreyGhost), he's probably dealing with those lately.

Well, the examples I linked tell how to add renderer to block when it's in inventory.

This is ofc. based on .json model.

 

If you ought to use other renderer then I can't help you - each works differently, there is no universal answer here.

Post some code and what you are trying / tried.
