I have no idea what you are trying to say.

[TSEngineer]

Make a custom armor without any programs? Impossible.

You can not make a custom set of armor without programming it.

[Ragnar]

I just found a tutorial that uses a program called Techne, which after you create the armature it gives you a .java file which is a ready class. And no tutorial that teaches you to do without the program, just writing in class

I do not mean without programming, I expressed myself poorly, I mean using only eclipse without other programs like the Techne

Okay, in that case you just need to make your own layer model then intercept the vanilla layers with the rendering events. For making your own layer model, look at how LayerBipedArmor works and see if you can copy/modify that to your needs.

[Ragnar]

still unclear

[jabelar]

Vanilla armor is done by LayerBipedArmor and related model classes. This is a render layer of the player (and other biped mobs that wear armor). For your custom armor you should copy those classes and modify the way you want for your own layer, then use events to add the layer during rendering.

 

How "crazy" is your custom armor? Are you just modifying it a bit, or really different from vanilla? In any case, most Minecraft models are simply made up of "block" like shapes. So you don't really need a program like Techne. You can just draw it on a piece of paper and put in all the coordinates of the blocks directly into your code. And if you're just modifying the vanilla armor you already have that code to reference so should give you a great starting point.

[Ragnar]

my armor is not crazy, it's just blocks together

[Ragnar]

Can you give me a sample code for a modified armor model? just to have a base please

[Ragnar]

Can anyone help me with this?

[jabelar]

We already told you where the sample code is. It is in the LayerBipedArmor class, that extends LayerArmorBase which also has code that might be useful for you.

[V0idWa1k3r]

Item already has a method that allows you to give your armor a custom model

public net.minecraft.client.model.ModelBiped getArmorModel(EntityLivingBase entityLiving, ItemStack itemStack, EntityEquipmentSlot armorSlot, net.minecraft.client.model.ModelBiped _default)

Just return your custom model there and it will be rendered instead of the default one.

Nós já lhe dissemos onde está o código de exemplo. Ele está na classe LayerBipedArmor, que estende o LayerArmorBase, que também possui código que pode ser útil para você.

I do not see anything that does the model of the armor here

You need to follow the code from there. There is obviously a method there that gets the model and is even called getArmorModelHook(). That method returns a ModelBiped so you could just override to return your own custom model right there, but more correct to continue as VoidWalker mentions -- this method ends up calling the Item#getArmorModel() method.

 

It is all related. There is a layer in the player model for armor. Assuming you want to replace the normal armor (instead of adding to it) you need the armor layer to find your model. The class code you are already looking at shows you where it gets that model from. So follow it from there.

[Ragnar]

For you, it's easy, you know how to program, you know how to speak English ...

[jabelar]

Yes, it is a lot easier if you already know how to program because then the code "explains itself". 

 

Anyway, what you're asking probably has many tutorials. Custom armor is a common thing to do so I think there should be good tutorials already available. Possibly even in your own language. Did you Google search for tutorials on "custom armor".

[Ragnar]

is this right?
 

 

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public class ModelElectricBoots extends ModelBiped{

    ModelRenderer rightLeg;
    ModelRenderer leftLeg;
    
    public ModelElectricBoots() {
        textureWidth = 64;
        textureHeight = 64;
        
        rightLeg = new ModelRenderer(this, 0, 32);
        rightLeg.addBox(10F, 1F, 10F, 6, 8, 8);
        setRotation(rightLeg, 1F, 2F, -1F);
        rightLeg.setTextureSize(64, 64);
        rightLeg.mirror = true;
        rightLeg.setRotationPoint(-1F, -2F, 1F);
        
        leftLeg = new ModelRenderer(this, 0, 32);
        leftLeg.addBox(10F, 1F, 10F, 6, 8, 8);
        setRotation(rightLeg, 1F, 2F, -1F);
        leftLeg.setTextureSize(64, 64);
        leftLeg.mirror = true;
        leftLeg.setRotationPoint(-1F, -2F, 1F);
        
        bipedRightLeg.addChild(rightLeg);
        bipedRightLeg.addChild(leftLeg);
    }
    
    public void render(Entity entity, float limbSwing, float limbSwingAmount, float ageInTicks, float netHeadYaw, float headPitch, float scale) {
        super.render(entity, limbSwing, limbSwingAmount, ageInTicks, netHeadYaw, headPitch, scale);
        setRotationAngles(limbSwing, limbSwingAmount, ageInTicks, netHeadYaw, headPitch, scale, entity);
    }
    
    public void setRotation(ModelRenderer model, float x, float y, float z) {
        model.rotateAngleX = x;
        model.rotateAngleY = y;
        model.rotateAngleZ = z;
    }
}

 

in armor class

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    public ModelBiped getArmorModel(EntityLivingBase entityLiving, ItemStack itemStack, EntityEquipmentSlot armorSlot, ModelBiped _default) {
        ModelElectricBoots electricBoots = new ModelElectricBoots();
        return electricBoots;
    }

Does it work?

[Ragnar]

the model does not appear, I do not know if it has to put in init, pre init or do something else

[Ragnar]

Someone knows how to tell me

[jabelar]

Okay, that looks like it might work (I didn't check the exact code, but the general idea looks like it should work.)

 

So your "armor class" is your own class that extends ItemArmor? And you've registered that item (using the RegistryEvent<Item>)?

[Ragnar]

my class does not extend ItemArmor, how can I render the armor if it does not extend to ItemArmor?

As far as the game is concerned your item is not an armor piece. You will need a Layer Model like Jabelar said in his first post.
