I want a custom EnumAction, One that looks similar to both a bow action and a food/drink action.

 

That would require overriding ItemRenderer though, because this is where the whole thing happens.

 

Is there a good way to do this?

all though that does give me a start where should I even use it in? Do I implement it in my item class? What exactly do I do with it? Any good example or documentation?

You would make a custom model loader (ICustomModelLoader) that produces an IModel which is then baked into a custom IBakedModel class of yours that also implements IPerspectiveAwareModel.

 

I'm new to forge  , or modding in a general sense however I know all of the basics.

 

This is not anything near what I know.

 

I know what a model is but I don't know a lot of the things you said. Especially the "baked" portion.

 

Sorry if I am missing the obvious or something

Models have two stages: IModel and IBakedModel.

IModel is sortof like an abstract definition of the model that cannot be rendered yet. IBakedModel is an optimized version that contains the model information in a tightly packed format that can be rendered.

 

 

Again, I think I missed a step or something because it's not clicking by any means.

Okay, Let's see what are the issues that I have to be specific.

 

On the interface IModel:

 

• in thegetdependencies method, it says "Returns all model locations that this model depends on.", What are those "model locations", Im not sure what to return
  
• in the gettextures  method, Do I make it return the texture to my item? I only have 1 texture.
  on the bakemethod I do not understand anything of what it mentions:
  

1. 
   
2. what do they mean by texture coordinates?
   
3. List<BakedQuad> .... whats bakedquad?
   
4. Where is the getformat method coming from?
   

 

[*]On getdefaultstate method what do I put in there? The IModelState interface only contains 1 method and I have no idea what to do with it.

[*]How do I bake this "Imodel" into a IBakedModel? The Bake method only returns a IFlexibleBakedModel

 

That's the IModel class alone. I got plenty more where that came from. I'm so sorry for asking all those questions I'm just starting out learning forge.

I appreciate the dedication.

 

So Really I don't need to add a dependencies since it's just a simple item model.

 

I only have 1 texture on my item so I make return that?

 

On the baked  method a couple more questions arises in order to know what to use it in:

 

what's the vertex format I need to pass it in It?

 

for the IModelState can I just pass in whatever getdefaultstate returns (Ie, TRSTransformation since it seems to implement IModelState)?

 

I've looked at TRSRTransformations and I see a lot vertex, quat and matrix. In my 4 years of java dev I've never even touched those, can someone explain me a little? Do I need to make a change there to make a custom Action or I can simply return the default?
