hey everyone,

I am working on a mod with custom armor models (I got them as .java)

So right now I dont know how to make minecraft use these custom models.

Any1 here that know how to do so?

Greetz BusyBeever

Override

Item#getArmorModel

to return the armour's

ModelBiped

instance.

So. My Armor extends ModelBase (exported from Techne) how to make a ModelBiped out of it?

Just made my armor estend ModelBiped and it works..

But the armor is glitchy and not really following the player when he moves

Any idea why?

 

public class AdamantArmorModel extends ModelBiped {
// fields
ModelRenderer head;
ModelRenderer body;
ModelRenderer rightarm;
ModelRenderer leftarm;
ModelRenderer rightleg;
ModelRenderer leftleg;
ModelRenderer Shape1;
ModelRenderer Shape2;
ModelRenderer Shape3;
ModelRenderer Shape4;

I suggest you use the existing

ModelRender

fields of

ModelBiped

where possible so that

ModelBiped

's methods can set the rotation angles and element visibility for you. Even if you override every method of

ModelBiped

, some parts of the code directly access and modify its fields rather than calling methods to do so.

 

You'll still need to override most of

ModelBiped

's methods to apply to your custom elements.
