ok i wanted to make a renderlayer (on the player) that renders a model / entity on the player ... i have done all of this but the renderlayer causes Frame drops over time .... after like 1 minute of looking on anything that renders on it the fps are 0-4 fps

here a screen of the Lag o Meter of minecraft when i am in thirdperson:

^^ Slowly going up and getting Frame drops ^^

here is the relevant code(i am using a parrot as placeholder just to test): 

My Render Layer Class:

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public class LayerEntityOnPlayerBack implements LayerRenderer<EntityLivingBase>{

    private final RenderManager renderManager;
    protected RenderLivingBase <? extends EntityLivingBase > Renderer;
    private ModelBase Model = new ModelParrot();
    private ResourceLocation Resource = RenderParrot.PARROT_TEXTURES[2];


    public LayerEntityOnPlayerBack(RenderManager rendermanager)
    {
        this.renderManager = rendermanager;
    }

    public void doRenderLayer(EntityLivingBase entitylivingbaseIn, float limbSwing, float limbSwingAmount, float partialTicks, float ageInTicks, float netHeadYaw, float headPitch, float scale)
    {
        if (entitylivingbaseIn.getCapability(ModelProvider.MODEL_CAP, null).getModelID() != 0)
        {
            GlStateManager.enableRescaleNormal();
            GlStateManager.color(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F);

            if (entitylivingbaseIn.getCapability(ModelProvider.MODEL_CAP, null).getModelID() == 1)
            {
            	if(Renderer == null) 
            	Renderer = new RenderParrot(this.renderManager);
            	
            	Renderer.bindTexture(Resource);
            	
            	
                GlStateManager.pushMatrix();
                float f = entitylivingbaseIn.isSneaking() ? -1.3F : -1.5F;
                GlStateManager.translate(0.0F, f, 0.0F);
                
                ageInTicks = 0.0F;

                Model.setLivingAnimations(entitylivingbaseIn, limbSwing, limbSwingAmount, partialTicks);
                Model.setRotationAngles(limbSwing, limbSwingAmount, ageInTicks, netHeadYaw, headPitch, scale, entitylivingbaseIn);
                Model.render(entitylivingbaseIn, limbSwing, limbSwingAmount, ageInTicks, netHeadYaw, headPitch, scale);
                GlStateManager.popMatrix();
            }

            GlStateManager.disableRescaleNormal();
        }
    }

    public boolean shouldCombineTextures()
    {
        return false;
    }





}

 

 

RenderPlayerEvent.Pre:

 

	@SubscribeEvent
	public void RenderPlayerEvent(RenderPlayerEvent.Pre event) {		
		
		LayerEntityOnPlayerBack layer = new LayerEntityOnPlayerBack(event.getRenderer().getRenderManager());
        event.getRenderer().addLayer(layer);
	}

 

Well, since RenderPlayerEvent fires every time the player is rendered(aka every frame) you are adding a new layer each frame...

Thanks!... ofc it would ...

 

actually.. which event should i use then ?

You can add a layer to the renderer at any point after which the renderer itself is created.

So maybe postinit would be fine? You would need to debug it.

then how would i get the renderer of the player.... from the postinit? 

thats the main point why i thought i should use the renderplayerevent

RenderPlayer is very specific since it is attached to a "skin" identifier(steve or alex)

You can get the map from Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderManager().getSkinMap()

The value of a given key in said map will be the RenderPlayer instance.
