Make shields enchantable [1.11.2]

[fcelon]

Hello,

I made a mod, that adds shield enchantments, but the problem with them is shields can't be enchanted by vanilla ways, because their enchantability is 0. The getItemEnchantability() for shields returns always 0, not a variable. Is there any way, how to change it (without adding my own shield, that will replace vanilla one)?

Thanks for any help

Sounds like substitution, which is buggy and probably only for blocks (not items).

 

Ideas:

1) Accept that you will need to extend the shield class.

2) Maybe you can trap events to inject your shield in place of vanilla shields (i.e. when crafted, when picked up).

3) You could replace the enchanting table and/or anvil (or trap events entering each) so you can add your exception for shields.

You can replace items.

How would you do this in 1.12.2? GameRegistry.addSubstitutionAlias method doesn't exist anymore

Register the item with the vanilla prefix. That's it.
