[1.7.10] Bow Rendering in 3rd Person

[Sbeagin]

So, I made a bow for my mod and used "this.setFull3D();" in the constructor to make it render in 3d, but the offset seems to be off.

The textures should be fine because all I did was edit the colors of the vanilla bow in paint.net.

Does anyone have a solution?

Here is the vanilla bow for comparison:

Umm... How about you start by fixing the images in your post.

[Sbeagin]

There you go. Sorry about that!

Ok, now that we can seethe problems, show us the item render code if you are pre-1.8 or item JSON for 1.8.

I'm in minecraft 1.7.10 and I am merely using "this.setFull3D();" in my bow constructor.

anyone?

@Override
public boolean isFull3D() 
{
return true;
}

[Sbeagin]

@Override
public boolean isFull3D() 
{
return true;
}

 

That still gives me the same offset problem.... It renders in 3d under the player's arm but my player is grabbing the very end of the bow, instead of the middle:

really? no one?

I think the problem is that when I use "this.setFull3D();" It is rendering the bow in hand like a sword istead of like a bow. Is there a way to change the hold type or something?

[Sbeagin]

Anyone?

[Sbeagin]

Please, does anyone know how to get the player to hold my bow like a bow instead of like a sword?

Bow rendering is handled specially by Minecraft, so if you want your bow to render in the same fashion, you need to create a custom render class that copies what Minecraft does.

 

Look at the item rendering class and search for bow, then create an IItemRenderer for your item.

Do I have to call that class the proxies or something? Thank you by the way!

If you search for IItemRenderer or 'Minecraft custom item rendering' in Google or something, you are bound to come up with some tutorials on how to use them.

 

You do need to register the renderer for your Item class in the ClientProxy (or at least called from there):

MinecraftForgeClient.registerItemRenderer(YourMod.yourItem, new RenderYourItem());

So this is what I have so far:

 

public class RenderItem implements IItemRenderer {

@Override
public boolean handleRenderType(ItemStack item, ItemRenderType type)
{
	switch(type){
	case EQUIPPED:
		return true;
	default:
		return false;
	}
}

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

@Override
public void renderItem(ItemRenderType type, ItemStack itemStack, Object... data) {
	switch(type){
	case EQUIPPED:
		GL11.glPushMatrix();

                        	//I don't know what to put here...

		GL11.glPopMatrix();
	default:
		break;
	}
}

}

 

I'm sorry, i'm new to rendering.
