So i made an item that launches another custom item, and it is working, but i want the render to look like the snowball looks when you throw it I don't want a custom model.

 

How would i go about this?

If you want something to behave similar to vanilla, look at the vanilla implementation and either re-use or extend it as appropriate.

 

In this case, use or extend RenderSnowball to render an entity as an item model.

I tried using this 

	RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(EntityBacon.class, new RenderSnowball(ModItems.rawbacon ));

 

 

But it asks me to add arguments and i tried everything but can't figure it out.

What arguments does it ask for? Are they objects which you have access to?

Well, your IDE told you what arguments you need to provide. RenderItem can be obtained at Minecraft::getRenderItem(). To obtain a RenderManager you need to properly register your renderer using RenderingRegistry::registerEntityRenderingHandler(Class, IRenderFactory). IRenderFactory::createRenderFor has RenderManager as an argument.

Thanks got it working.
