Some servers have plugins so you can view a virtual chest/player vault that you can store items in. I would like to be able to get that inventory and read through the items inside it. I'm new to modding so any help would be nice.

Question tho:

 

You want to recreate some virtual-chest plugin with Forge Mod? That is NOT simple.

 

Asking because what you wrote could also mean that you want to lookup virtual-chests of other players or of that plugin.

I think he does want to examine the virtual-chest lookups from other mods.

 

Short answer is:

You won't be able to.  Every one of those mods likely does things slightly differently, even if they all use IExtendedEntityProperties to store the data.

No I mean there are plugins on some servers that open a chest GUI and store items that you put inside the chest GUI. I want to be able to get the GUI aka the virtual chest inventory. I have looked up tutorials to get the inventory of a chest but those require the actual chest in order to get the inventory.

 

I do not know if I am allowed to link examples to help get my point across but here is a plugin that creates virtual chests.

Then I'm confused.

 

What are you trying to accomplish?

And I don't mean "get the virtual chest GUI."

Late to respond. I forgot about my post . I would like to be on a server that has that plugin and be able to check what items are in the chest screen that shows up once I do the command for it. Not create my own version of the plugin for the other guy that was asking.
