i want to make a 3d item model, i already have the model, the texture and the tool class but i dont know where to start on making the model for the item in game appear. anyone know how to make a 3d tool that renders when held and dropped?

also i want to make a tool procedurally generated when crafted, like starbound tools are randomized. for example you craft a pickaxe from a single recipe, and a random one comes up, randomized textures random enchants (if lucky) and maybe random names from a list of words EDIT: and you can find really rare ones in dungeon chests and rare mob drops

Override Item.onCreated for the latter. It is called when an item is pulled out of the crafting or furnace result slot. You get the Itemstack to modify to your liking

not sure what you mean by that.... and im not sure if you understood, i meant one crafting recipe for multiple items, but only one. kind of like tinkers construct tool building but completely random with specific materials. for example, i make a pickaxe recipe with sticks and a custom material, the recipe chooses from a random set of parts, like one of 5 different handles and one of 8 different pickaxe heads. and makes up a name based on a list of words

 

 

EDIT: i got the item model in the game, but it wont load the texture, its invisible. it thinks theres no texture in the path when i put the texture in the path

Texture code:

 

	public void renderItem(ItemRenderType type, ItemStack item, Object... data) {
	switch(type){
	case EQUIPPED_FIRST_PERSON:
	case EQUIPPED:
		GL11.glPushMatrix();
		Minecraft.getMinecraft().renderEngine.bindTexture(new ResourceLocation(EtherealStrings.modid, "textures/models/EMMModelTex.png")); 

		GL11.glTranslatef(-6.0F, 11.0F, -0.5F);
		GL11.glRotatef(90F, 0.0F, 1.0F, 0.0F);

		ModelTool.render((Entity)data[1], 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0625f);

		GL11.glPopMatrix();
	default:
		break;
	}

Texture path in windows:

Hi

 

You must match capitalisation of paths exactly.  I suggest you should just use lower case for everything especially your modid.
