Alright so in my mod there are going to be several types of elytra with tweaked stats, like durability, ability to be repaired ect. However I can't seem to get my elytra to function at all. My elytra already extends ItemElytra, but is there still more I need to do?

 

Elytra class:

Spoiler

package com.Frost2779.ElytraCrafting.items;

import com.Frost2779.ElytraCrafting.Main;
import com.Frost2779.ElytraCrafting.init.ModItems;
import com.Frost2779.ElytraCrafting.util.IHasModel;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemElytra;

public class WoodenElytra extends ItemElytra implements IHasModel {
    public WoodenElytra(String name){
        setUnlocalizedName(name);
        setRegistryName(name);
        setMaxDamage(100);
        setNoRepair();

        ModItems.ITEMS.add(this);
    }

    @Override
    public void registerModels() {
        Main.proxy.registerItemRenderer(this, 0, "inventory");
    }

}

 

 

Items Class:

package com.Frost2779.ElytraCrafting.init;

import com.Frost2779.ElytraCrafting.items.ItemBase;
import com.Frost2779.ElytraCrafting.items.WoodenElytra;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

public class ModItems {
    public static final List<Item> ITEMS = new ArrayList<Item>();

    public static final Item REINFORCED_STICK = new ItemBase("reinforced_stick");
    public static final Item REINFORCED_LEATHER_SQUARE = new ItemBase("reinforced_leather_square");
    public static final Item REINFORCED_LEATHER_WING = new ItemBase("reinforced_leather_wing");
    public static final Item LEATHER_HARNESS = new ItemBase("leather_harness");

    public static final Item WOODEN_ELYTRA = new WoodenElytra("wooden_elytra");

    public static final Item HARDENED_LEATHER = new ItemBase("hardened_leather");
    public static final Item DIAMOND_REINFORCED_STICK = new ItemBase("diamond_reinforced_stick");
    public static final Item DIAMOND_REINFORCED_HARD_LEATHER_SQUARE = new ItemBase("diamond_reinforced_hard_leather_square");
    public static final Item DIAMOND_REINFORCED_WING = new ItemBase("diamond_reinforced_wing");
    public static final Item DIAMOND_HARNESS = new ItemBase("diamond_harness");

    public static final Item ENDER_INFUSED_LEATHER = new ItemBase("ender_infused_leather");
    public static final Item ENDER_INFUSED_LEATHER_SQUARE = new ItemBase("ender_infused_leather_square");
    public static final Item ENDER_INFUSED_WING = new ItemBase("ender_infused_wing");
    public static final Item ENDER_INFUSED_HARNESS = new ItemBase("ender_infused_harness");
    public static final Item ENDER_PEARL_DUST = new ItemBase("ender_pearl_dust");
}

 

 

This is because EntityPlayer checks for if(item == Items.ELYTRA)

You will never get this to work the way you want.

Do you know of any way I would be able to do what it is I want without having to recreate portions of the source code?

It is pretty tough. That is why there is currently a PR to add Forge hook for custom Elytra. See https://github.com/MinecraftForge/MinecraftForge/pull/4476
