[1.9.4] [Solved]How to make a dropped item invisible?

[Tina Sprout]

Basically i want to make items dropped not render, but still be there so they can be picked up.

Also what does:

-event.getEntity().setInvisible(true); (itemTossEvent)

-event.getEntityItem().setInvisible(true); (ItemTossEvent)

do as they did not do anything to the dropped item.

any pointers would be appreciated (as long as they are not from sham1  )

I can think on something, not sure if it would work, or be the best way to do it, but maybe on the .json under display, you can set the scale of the item to 0 when it's on ground view?

Im not entirely sure you mean by ".json under display", also just to clarify i need to be able to apply the invisibility to vannila items aswell as other modded items aswell

Kill the original Item entity and spawn a custom one that has a renderer that respects invisibility.

Im not sure this would be ideal, as i said before i need this to work with modded items (from other mods) so if they have a custom render that would cause problems (as far as im aware atleast), It is the best idea ive seen so far though. I was hoping there was away to cancel the render for items on the ground

There isn't.

well thats kinda sad, Im just gonna leave the thread as unsolved for a day or so to see if anyone can come up with any better solution. thanks for your time anyways

What you could do is wrap any other custom renderer in yours.

Im honestly not 100% sure how i would go about doing that. any documentation or such you could link me to?

RenderInvisItem extends RenderEntityItem

EntityInvisItem extends EntityItem

 

You register your render to your entity item.

 

In your doRender you can render whatever you want - including using other renderers (which you can pull out from render registry or whatever).

If you want it to be invisible why the fuck are you bothering to render anything at all!?
