[1.8.9] Render armour on player without item

[Wehavecookies56]

Hello, I am trying to render a model over the player similar to armour but cannot align the position of the models with the player. I have been using ModelBiped but would much rather be able to use the armour model. I cannot figure out how to render it in the same position as the player while also rotating it with the player.

What I ultimately want to achieve is to render armour on the player with my textures while keeping the player rendered underneath.

So I have 2 questions.

How can I align the model with the player?

How can I render the armour model rather than player model?

I am using PlayerRenderEvent.Post to render it, here's the code.

        @SubscribeEvent
public void onRenderPlayer(RenderPlayerEvent.Post event){
	Minecraft mc = Minecraft.getMinecraft();
	ModelBiped main = event.renderer.getMainModel();
	ModelBiped drive = new ModelBiped();

	float base = 0.0625f;

	GL11.glPushMatrix();

	mc.renderEngine.bindTexture(new ResourceLocation("kk:textures/armour/Valor_A.png"));

	//Body and arms
	ModelBiped.copyModelAngles(main.bipedBody, drive.bipedBody);
	ModelBiped.copyModelAngles(main.bipedLeftArm, drive.bipedLeftArm);
	ModelBiped.copyModelAngles(main.bipedRightArm, drive.bipedRightArm);

	drive.bipedBody.render(base);
	drive.bipedLeftArm.render(base);
	drive.bipedRightArm.render(base);

	//Legs
	mc.renderEngine.bindTexture(new ResourceLocation("kk:textures/armour/Valor_B.png"));

	ModelBiped.copyModelAngles(main.bipedLeftLeg, drive.bipedLeftLeg);
	ModelBiped.copyModelAngles(main.bipedRightLeg, drive.bipedRightLeg);

	drive.bipedLeftLeg.render(base);
	drive.bipedRightLeg.render(base);

	GL11.glPopMatrix();
}

 

This produces:

 

It looks fine it's just upside down and doesn't rotate with the player. Although the arms and legs move when walking.

I'm clearly doing something wrong or have missed out something.

 

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Wait, so to get this straight you are making a set of armor? Or what exactly are you making?

I'm making a set of armour that isn't a set of items so you don't put anything in the armour slots in your inventory.

Well, I am not sure about the turning part, but the part about the upside-down-ness may be able to be fixed if in the texture itself, you may want to flip it 180°, and therefore solving that

While that kinda would solve that, the legs are rendered above the body which suggests it is rendering the models upside down.

sounds like u need to do some kind of GL rotating, not rotating the texture

I tried doing that, the problem is getting it perfectly aligned with the player.

I have some really bad memories associated with aligning models with players...

I was rendering a .obj model as a sword and it was hard. I had to change a number than restart minecraft. Till I found the perfect match. It was a painstaking process that took a long time.

Then after I finished spending hours on trying to align it, I found out that in debugging mode, it will change it without you having to restart minecraft. So, just run it in debug mode and try looking for the perfect numbers.

I was rendering a .obj model as a sword and I just to keep on trying with different numbers and then restart minecraft, till I found the perfect match. It was a painstaking process that took a long time.

But even if I do this it does not rotate with the player so it would be misaligned as soon as I move.

I just want to know 1 thing because I have been dying on trying to get a model to render on the player.

 

1. How are you rendering your model

He already showed you the code.

1. Stop using GLXX. Use GlStateManager instead.

2. Get the player's horizontal rotation and apply the rotation to your model with GlStateManager#rotate. This shouldn't be that hard.

Sorry we don't support 1.8.9 or any version under 1.10 on this forum anymore due to their age. We simply don't know how to help you anymore. You can go to the Minecraft Forum where I think that they still still support older versions, or update to a modern version of Minecraft (the latest version or the one before it) to receive support on this forum.
