[SOLVED] Armor Metadata Rendering!

[Eastonium]

Hi, So I'm working on a mod, and in it I have been able to program metadata for armor, but I can't get it to render different textures for when you're wearing the helmet. Everything works except that. The files I have organized such that the metadata lines up with the texture numbers. ("hau_0","hau_1","hau_2"... ect.)

Note: there are 7 metadata items.

Here's my Armor File:

package Bionicle;

Hope you can help!!!

You will probably have to write your own renderer.

[Eastonium]

Anyone have any other suggestions? Making a new rendering file won't work, because it directly connects to the player entity.

[deverionz]

How are you going about the metadata? You have setMaxDamage(0) so surely the armour will have infinite durability?

[Eastonium]

Solved it. I had to do this:

public String getArmorTextureFile(ItemStack par1)
{
	if(this.hasSubtypes)
	{
		return "/mods/Click_Bionicle/armor/hau_" + par1.getItemDamage() + ".png";
	}
	return "/mods/Click_Bionicle/armor/fire_1.png";
}

I just had to use the handy dandy ItemStack thing, and get the Item's damage from that.

Wayyy over thought this one.

Glad you solved the problem
