[1.8.9] How do I programmaticlly change the color of part of a particule

[needoriginalname]

I am making a particle that will circle around the player where that is will constantly change color. However, I don't want the entire particle's color to change, only parts of it. Such as what happens to leather armor that allows you to change the color, but not the color of the entire textures.

 

I figured out how to change a particles color by changing its particleRed, particleGreen, and particleBlue variables to the color I want, however it causes the part of the particle to also change.

Haven't worked with particles in a while and not at my IDE, but can't you, just like with

Item

s have multiple layers and only color 1 of them?

Hi

 

You'll need to make a custom renderer for your particle that has two layers, like Lars says.

 

There is a working example of a particle with a custom renderer here
