[SOLVED] [1.8] Item Rendering

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Hello guys,

 

I want to make a CLIENT ONLY mod.

I would like to change the texture of an item, if it has a specific name.

E.g.:

The item is an normal apple.

Its name is "Apple"

==> Normal Apple-texture

 

The item is an normal apple.

Its name is "Special Apple"

==> Own Texture

 

Is this even possible and if yes, how could I do it?

I don't find any events regarding to this (I can't just do e.setTexture(new ResourceLocation("")); ).

 

Thanks in advance

You will need to assign custom IModel (baked) to item during game startup and make it return different baked models depending on ItemStack's NBT.

I recommend searching for threads regarding this topic as it is pretty big and not that simple.

Ok, thanks

But I don't know how to do this exactly

 

Update to 1.10.2. Then you can do this with ItemOverrides.

Register your own IItemPropertyGetter to the apple item. Then make an ItemOverride instance that reacts to that property and stuff it into the apple model.

 

This sounds good, but I do this for a little Server Network, which runs at 1.8 at the moment Maybe we will update it... Thanks to you, too

 

But: Is there really no other method?

Ok, we have updated our network now and I updated my mod.

I'm just following your "guide":

Quite hacky, but this should work:

 

All in preInit:

• Register an implementation of

  IItemPropertyGetter

  to

  Items.POTIONITEM

  using

  addPropertyOverride

  with a

  ResourceLocation

  with your ModID.
  

  • In this

    IItemPropertyGetter

    , check if the supplied stack is your potion and return 1 if so, 0 otherwise.

  [*]Implement

  IResourceManagerReloadListener

  and register it with

  Minecraft#getResourceManager

  (you'll have to cast to

  IReloadableResourceManager

  ).

  • In this listener, call

    Minecraft.getMinecraft.getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher().getItemModel(new ItemStack(Items.POTIONITEM));

    to obtain the baked model for the potion.
    

  • Obtain the

    ItemOverrideList

    for the model using

    IBakedModel#getOverrides

    and get the field

    ItemOverrideList#overrides

    from it (you'll need reflection as this field is private).
    

  • This field gives you a

    List<ItemOverride>

    . Create your own

    ItemOverride

    and add it to the list. The constructor for

    ItemOverride

    takes 2 parameters: A

    ResourceLocation

    and a

    Map<ResourceLocation, Float>

    . The

    ResourceLocation

    is the identifier for the model you want your potion to have (like you would use when normally registering an item). The

    Map

    needs to contain a single entry, the key being the

    ResourceLocation

    that identifies your

    IItemPropertyGetter

    from the first step, the value being (as a

    Float

    ) 1.
    

 

You might additionally need to tell Minecraft to pre-load your Model using

ModelBakery.registerItemVariants

in preInit.

But how would I do this, if I need to set a new Texture for a block? May I just call Item.getItemFromBlock(...) or is there a other method?

 

EDIT: But there is something odd... o_O If I do this in the preInit, like you said, then I get a NullPointer at getRenderItem()... In the init - method it works, but now the textures are changed even when the item does not have the name I wrote in the IItemPropertyGetter...

 

EDIT 2: Item.getItemFromBlock works, but I don't know how to replace the texture of the block itself, when it got placed

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Is this still an issue? If so please post your code.

 

Yes, this is still an issue My Code is here: https://github.com/Rustico-Network/RusticoHelper/tree/master/java/de/thexxturboxx/rusticohelper

 

For blocks this is quite a bit trickier. When do you want the texture change to take effect here? Blocks do not have names after all.

 

In Bukkit/Spigot, there is an option to set metadata-keys with values (see here, the code in the first post is an example: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/meta-data-on-placed-blocks.55072/)

 

EDIT: I found something in the log:

http://pastebin.com/ngKBiKpV

But why does Forge search in the folder "rusticohelper:item/textures/items/crook.png" The normal folder would be "rusticohelper:items/crook", right?

[ThexXTURBOXx]

I tried further and further, but I can't get rid of this issue

It keeps telling me, the png is missing, shows me the wrong path to it and it overrides even the vanilla item's textures

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Now everything besides from the Blocks, when they got placed, works fine, thanks (See my code here: https://github.com/Rustico-Network/RusticoHelper )

But I had to do 2 more steps... I had to register the normal model of the vanilla-item, too.

And I had to register the ModelResourceLocation in the ItemOverride-constructor, not a normal ResourceLocation, but thank you very much!

 

I will just let the blocks be the vanilla ones
