[1.10 / 1.10.2] [Solved] Items with same model but different textures

[NewDivide]

Hey,

 

I've been searching for ways to use one model for various items,

Came across with IItemColor/layers, and it kinda did the job, but it was a bit limiting, cause i would like to use varying textures with the same "skeleton".

 

Is there a way to use one model the item defines it's texture?

 

Thanks in advance,

Create a base model that defines the shape and the texture names for each face and then create models that extend this and specify the texture location for each texture name as appropriate.

 

This is how basic blocks models work:

block/cube_all

defines the shape and the texture names (

all

) and you create a model that extends it and specifies the texture location for each texture name (e.g.

"#all" = "modid:blocks/foo"

).

Thanks, i didnt thought about that route, i set the texture variables with an empty path ("") in the main model, and override them in the child ones, and achive what i wanted, but ...

 

Can you define a texture without seting its path?

Yes, look at

block/cube

or

block/cube_all

, these both define texture names without specifying a path for them.
