[1.14.4] Create an armor item that uses the elytra model (but does not function like an elytra).

[Hendoor64]

I am trying to make a cloak item, a chest-slot piece of armor. It seems simplest to make the cloak look like an elytra and change the texture rather than making my own armor model, since I'm happy with how the elytra looks already. The cloak class currently extends ArmorItem.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

look at the LayerElytra class -> create your own layer class for your cloaks

and then add your layer in the RenderPlayerEvent, i think that should work but im not sure.

you can probably copy all the code and check if the chest armor is your cloak instead and change the texture.
