Posted November 11, 20177 yr I'm programatically combining textures to create items. Unfortunately there's too many items in the end (thousands) and it makes forge take forever to load. So I think I'll have to use NBT values (can't use damage because it's a tool). Seems like you add the NBT value when returning the itemstack from the recipe, but how do I then change the texture based on that value?
November 11, 20177 yr You would still need to register each image so that it can be baked into a model. Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

November 11, 20177 yr Author There are the two times when it takes an unacceptably long time during loading. Are you saying even if I used NBT data and didn't register each as it's own item in the game, these steps would still have to happen?
November 11, 20177 yr Those are both ModelLoader tasks. Which bake models. Which you would still have to do. So yes.

November 11, 20177 yr Author Any ideas on ways around it? Tinkers Construct has far more combinations than me yet they load almost instantly.
November 11, 20177 yr TiC almost certainly uses multiple pieces to create their items. e.g. there's a wooden shaft, a metal blade, and a leather grip. So the item model is actually 3 models combined. They only register 3* images to get baked into models, then the item uses all three when created. Also, TiC is on GitHub: https://github.com/SlimeKnights/TinkersConstruct *Obviously there are more, the "3" in this context is the example three.
