Hi, I'm new to forge so I don't really know much yet but I was wondering if I could somehow change the armor texture dimension from 64x32 to 64x64.

With a custom armor model your texture could be of any size.

Why 64x64 exactly? If you just want a higher resolution then 128x64 would work just fine.

Well, like skins so there's a overlay to the body

Can you explain that more?

Well there's two layers of armor right

But I want it to only be like this

Please help I really need to change the armor texture format

You’ll need to write your own renderer that takes the parts of the textures from 1 file instead of two. As far as I can see, there is no advantage to doing this though.

How do I do that exactly? Sorry I'm really a newbie at modding.

You would likely be copy and pasting and tweaking the existing renderer. You’ll need a good understanding off Java & rendering & modding before doing this though.

i would approach this differently it is also possible (but a bit tedious) to just replace the armor model in the item class of the armor if you override in your class that extends ItemArmor

	@Override
	@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
	public ModelBiped getArmorModel(EntityLivingBase living, ItemStack stack, EntityEquipmentSlot armorSlot, ModelBiped defaultModel)
	{
		if(!stack.isEmpty())
		{
			if(stack.getItem() instanceof ItemArmor)
			{

				EntityEquipmentSlot type = ((ItemArmor) stack.getItem()).armorType;
				ModelBiped armorModel = null;
				switch (type) {
				case HEAD:
					armorModel = new MODEL(1f);
					break;
				case LEGS:
					armorModel = new MODEL(1f);
					break;
				case FEET:
					armorModel = new MODEL(0.5f);
					break;
				case CHEST:
					armorModel = new MODEL(0.5f);
					break;
				default:
					break;
				}

				armorModel.bipedHead.showModel = armorSlot == EntityEquipmentSlot.HEAD;
				armorModel.bipedHeadwear.showModel = armorSlot == EntityEquipmentSlot.HEAD;
				armorModel.bipedBody.showModel = (armorSlot == EntityEquipmentSlot.CHEST)
						|| (armorSlot == EntityEquipmentSlot.CHEST);
				armorModel.bipedRightArm.showModel = armorSlot == EntityEquipmentSlot.CHEST;
				armorModel.bipedLeftArm.showModel = armorSlot == EntityEquipmentSlot.CHEST;
				armorModel.bipedRightLeg.showModel = (armorSlot == EntityEquipmentSlot.LEGS)
						|| (armorSlot == EntityEquipmentSlot.FEET);
				armorModel.bipedLeftLeg.showModel = (armorSlot == EntityEquipmentSlot.LEGS)
						|| (armorSlot == EntityEquipmentSlot.FEET);

				armorModel.isSneak = defaultModel.isSneak;
				armorModel.isRiding = defaultModel.isRiding;
				armorModel.isChild = defaultModel.isChild;
				armorModel.rightArmPose = defaultModel.rightArmPose;
				armorModel.leftArmPose = defaultModel.leftArmPose;

				return armorModel;
			}
		}
		return null;
	}

forgot smth in the code

Please don’t post copypasta code, people will blindly use it without understanding it or learning anything from it

In addition don't do this

ModelBiped armorModel = null;
				switch (type) {
				case HEAD:
					armorModel = new MODEL(1f);
					break;
				case LEGS:
					armorModel = new MODEL(1f);
					break;
				case FEET:
					armorModel = new MODEL(0.5f);
					break;
				case CHEST:
					armorModel = new MODEL(0.5f);
					break;
				default:
					break;
				}

You are creating a new model each frame. Considering that models have to compute themselves into render lists this is an expensive operation.

Ok

That wasn’t directed at you

I've finally made my renderer but there's a problem.

Here's my code:

package com.galileogalilei.ironmanarmormod.client.model;

import net.minecraft.client.model.ModelBase;
import net.minecraft.client.model.ModelRenderer;
import net.minecraft.client.renderer.GlStateManager;
import net.minecraft.entity.Entity;
import net.minecraft.entity.EntityLivingBase;
import net.minecraft.util.EnumHand;
import net.minecraft.util.EnumHandSide;
import net.minecraft.util.math.MathHelper;

public class ModelSuits
  extends ModelBase
{
  public class ArmPose {

    }

private static final String ArmPose = null;
public ModelRenderer field_78116_c;
  public ModelRenderer field_178720_f;
  public ModelRenderer field_78115_e;
  public ModelRenderer field_178723_h;
  public ModelRenderer field_178724_i;
  public ModelRenderer field_178721_j;
  public ModelRenderer field_178722_k;
  public String field_187075_l = ModelSuits.ArmPose;
  public String field_187076_m = ModelSuits.ArmPose;
  public boolean field_78117_n;
  
  public ModelSuits() {
    this(0.0F);
  }
  
  public ModelSuits(float ☃) 
  {
    this(☃, 0.0F, 64, 64);
  }
 

You said

So where is the problem?

Also why do you use field_78116_c as names for your objects?

And why do you have a ArmPose class which does nothing?

And you only posted half of your class. You should post a complete class and say what your problem is otherwise nobody can help you.

The problem is that it doesn't render my models

Thats a java model, not a renderer.

I would say you need a model class and pass an instance of that class in the Item#getArmorModel method of your item class. If you still need help you need to post your classes.
