i have a what to you might seem like a very noob java question but i cant figure it out.

I want a system that makes a random texture, i based this on the entityid (i hope i did it correctly lol) and reduces that to 4 textures, medical0 medical1 medical2 medical3

 

In resourcelocation i want to combine medical with texture2 (texture 2 is an int variable) to generate ranom numbers but it just tells minecraft that the resourcelocation is medicaltexture2.png....

 

what did i do wrong?

 

	public int getMobid() {
		return mobid;
	}
	
	private int texture(int number) {
		int texture2 = (mobid % 10);
		while (texture2 >= 4) {
			texture2 = (texture2 % 3);
		}
		
		return texture2;
	}
	



	@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
	public void registerRenderers() {
		RenderLiving customRender = new RenderLiving(Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderManager(), new medical.ModelNew(), 0) {
			protected ResourceLocation getEntityTexture(Entity par1Entity) {
				return new ResourceLocation("medical" + "texture2" + ".png");
			}
		};
		RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(medical.Entitymedical.class, customRender);

	}

So how do i code this, someone told me to code an algorithm based on uuid.getmostsignificantbits but that isnt recognised by eclipse, can you help me?

can i get some help i says zero chilled mods

 

    int id = (int) (uuid.getMostSignificantBits() ^ uuid.getLeastSignificantBits()) % {2};

 

eeh this doesnt work, can you make an example?

for some reason eclipse doesnt know what to do with uuid do i use the java.UTIL.uuid? if i got this what do i do next?

 

 

    int id = (int) (uuid.getMostSignificantBits() ^ uuid.getLeastSignificantBits() % 2);

 

 

i have no idea how to.
