[1.15.2] [Solved] Dynamically create Item model from dynamically generated item texture


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello. I've now implemented a custom tool crafting system (similar to Tinker's construct) with Modifiers etc.

Now I have to generate a texture out of the materials the tool is made of.

How can I do that?

Thanks for any help.

Item.setISTER lets you use a TileEntityRenderer for rendering your item.  You can take the rendering functionality from the map rendering class(es) and copy them into your own renderer.

 

Or you can add a custom model and do the same thing, i.e. copy the rendering functionality from the map rendering class(es)

(see eg mbe15 in  https://github.com/TheGreyGhost/MinecraftByExample)

 

The basic idea is:

1) generate a custom dynamic texture

2) bind the texture

3) draw one or more quads

Ah, my bad.  It's actually in Item.Properties nested class

 

Item.java:      

It's in the nested class Properties

public Item.Properties setISTER(java.util.function.Supplier<java.util.concurrent.Callable<net.minecraft.client.renderer.tileentity.ItemStackTileEntityRenderer>> ister) {
         this.ister = ister;
         return this;
      }

--> is Right at the very end of the class

I'm now attaching my custom item renderer to the item like this:

new CommonTool(new Item.Properties().setISTER(() -> new Callable<ItemStackTileEntityRenderer>()
	{
		DynamicCommonToolRendering r = null;
		
		@Override
		public ItemStackTileEntityRenderer call() throws Exception
		{
			if(r == null)
				r = new DynamicCommonToolRendering();
			
			return r;
		}
		
	}));

But it won't run the render method which is defined in DynamicCommonToolRendering().

What have I done wrong?

There could be lots of possible reasons for that.  Probably your item model doesn't have "builtin/entity" as the parent type.  (see the "Item" section of https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Model)

 

If that doesn't work, I'd suggest trying some breakpoints in strategic locations, eg:

- inside your lambda for supplying the ItemStackTileEntityRenderer

- inside the render method of vanilla ItemStackTileEntityRenderer

- inside ItemRenderer::renderItem(ItemStack itemStackIn ....)

@TheGreyGhost Thanks. It works now. But I have a new problem:

I am doing something wrong while loading the images of the tool parts:

I'm currently using

DynamicTexture tex = new DynamicTexture(NativeImage.read(this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("assets/deepnether/textures/item/toolparts/" + stick.getImage(Part.STICK, toolType) + ".png")));

to load a texture, but the stream seems to be "null".

I now fixed the issue that I mentioned above as well, but now I have another problem: The item doesn't look like a standard minecraft item (it's just a plane with a texture), and doesn't seem to be translated the right way when you hold it in your hands.

Yes, that's how generated item models work.

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

 

Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked.

 

DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.

But how can I generate an item mesh from a dynamic texture?

Is there any way to do it with vanilla code, or do I have to do it with my own code?

I still have no solution, please help. I've tried to generate a model out of the texture, but I have no idea in which direction the normals should face etc.

You have a couple of options;

if you just want to generate a flat "pizza box" model with your texture, you can use any of the methods in these example classes

https://github.com/TheGreyGhost/MinecraftByExample/blob/master/src/main/java/minecraftbyexample/mbe04_block_dynamic_block_models/AltimeterBakedModel.java

 

https://github.com/TheGreyGhost/MinecraftByExample/blob/master/src/main/java/minecraftbyexample/mbe21_tileentityrenderer/RenderQuads.java

 

or BlockModel::bakeVanilla

 

If you want to generate an item model with 'holes' in it, similar to vanillla, then look at ItemModelGenerator to see how vanilla does it or ItemLayerModel forge extension for further clues.  Haven't done that myself....

@TheGreyGhost Thanks for responding.

 

I made this bit of code, but the face normals of the generated model are wrong, resulting in rendering issues:

  Reveal hidden contents

How can I fix that?

@TheGreyGhost The problem is, that I have no idea what is going on. From one side, you can see a line, and from the other side of the face, you can see the tool.

Everything is clipping, etc., as you can see in this thread:

Ah ok, now I understand what you mean.  That's nothing to do with the vertex normals information, it's because of back face culling.

Each quad has a direction - a front face and a back face.  Usually, the back face is not drawn.

 

The direction that the face is pointing is determined by the order of the vertices.

If you are looking at the front of the face, the four vertices should be in anti-clockwise order.

So if the face is pointing the wrong way, you just need to reverse the order of your vertices.

 

For example: your left-right draws in the order of

 

maxY, minZ

maxY, maxZ

minY, maxZ

minY, minZ

which is clockwise

https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lh9ked7q9Lg/UejFhn9OfbI/AAAAAAAAAAY/oYem6d_fSk8/s1600/MinecraftCoordinateSystem.png

 

Instead, add the vertices in the opposite order, i.e.

minY, minZ

minY, maxZ

maxY, maxZ

maxY, minZ

    • Hello all. I'm currently grappling with the updateShape method in a custom class extending Block.  My code currently looks like this: The conditionals in CheckState are there to switch blockstate properties, which is working fine, as it functions correctly every time in getStateForPlacement.  The problem I'm running into is that when I update a state, the blocks seem to call CheckState with the position of the block which was changed updated last.  If I build a wall I can see the same change propagate across. My question thus is this: is updateShape sending its return to the neighbouring block?  Is each block not independently executing the updateShape method, thus inserting its own current position?  The first statement appears to be true, and the second false (each block is not independently executing the method). I have tried to fix this by saving the block's own position to a variable myPos at inception, and then feeding this in as CheckState(myPos) but this causes a worse outcome, where all blocks take the update of the first modified block, rather than just their neighbour.  This raises more questions than it answers, obviously: how is a different instance's variable propagating here?  I also tried changing it so that CheckState did not take a BlockPos, but had myPos built into the body - same problem. I have previously looked at neighbourUpdate and onNeighbourUpdate, but could not find a way to get this to work at all.  One post on here about updatePostPlacement and other methods has proven itself long superceded.  All other sources on the net seem to be out of date. Many thanks in advance for any help you might offer me, it's been several days now of trying to get this work and several weeks of generally trying to get round this roadblock.  - Sandermall
    • sorry, I might be stupid, but how do I open it? because the only options I have are too X out, copy it, which doesn't work and send crash report, which doesn't show it to me, also, sorry for taking so long.
    • Can you reproduce this with version 55.0.21? A whole lot of plant placement issues were just fixed in this PR.
    • Necro'ing that thread to ask if you found a solution ? I'm encountering the same crash on loading the world. I created the world in Creative to test my MP, went into survival to test combat, died, crashed on respawn and since then crash on loading the world. Deactivating Oculus isn't fixing it either, and I don't have Optifine (Twilight forest is incompatible)
