How do I correctly render a custom bow in the players hands?

[Ethyl_Amine]

In third person view, my custom bow is rendered as an item as opposed to how the vanilla bow is rendered, I have tried using bFull3d however the bow still does not render as the vanilla bow does, I have tried searching for similar topics but they are outdated, any help with getting this to work in 1.6.2?

it hasnt really changed, you need a IItemRenderer

[Ethyl_Amine]

I have created an IItemRenderer Class using some older topics, however I'm stuck with the following section:

 

 

private void renderItem(EntityLiving par1EntityLiving, ItemStack par2ItemStack, int par3) {
	Icon icon = par1EntityLiving.getItemIcon(par2ItemStack, par3);

        if (icon == null)
        {
            return;
        }

        if (par2ItemStack.getItemSpriteNumber() == 0)
        {
            this.mc.renderEngine.bindTexture("/terrain.png");
        }
        else
        {
            this.mc.renderEngine.bindTexture("/gui/items.png");
        }

        Tessellator tessellator = Tessellator.instance;
        float f = icon.getMinU();
        float f1 = icon.getMaxU();
        float f2 = icon.getMinV();
        float f3 = icon.getMaxV();
        float f4 = 0.0F;
        float f5 = 0.3F;
        GL11.glEnable(GL12.GL_RESCALE_NORMAL);
        GL11.glTranslatef(-f4, -f5, 0.0F);
        float f6 = 1.5F;
        GL11.glScalef(f6, f6, f6);
        GL11.glRotatef(50.0F, 0.0F, 1.0F, 0.0F);
        GL11.glRotatef(335.0F, 0.0F, 0.0F, 1.0F);
        GL11.glTranslatef(-0.9375F, -0.0625F, 0.0F);
        ItemRenderer.renderItemIn2D(tessellator, f1, f2, f, f3, icon.getSheetWidth(), icon.getSheetHeight(), 0.0625F);

        if (par2ItemStack != null && par2ItemStack.hasEffect() && par3 == 0)
        {
            GL11.glDepthFunc(GL11.GL_EQUAL);
            GL11.glDisable(GL11.GL_LIGHTING);
            this.mc.renderEngine.bindTexture("%blur%/misc/glint.png");
            GL11.glEnable(GL11.GL_BLEND);
            GL11.glBlendFunc(GL11.GL_SRC_COLOR, GL11.GL_ONE);
            float f7 = 0.76F;
            GL11.glColor4f(0.5F * f7, 0.25F * f7, 0.8F * f7, 1.0F);
            GL11.glMatrixMode(GL11.GL_TEXTURE);
            GL11.glPushMatrix();
            float f8 = 0.125F;
            GL11.glScalef(f8, f8, f8);
            float f9 = (float)(Minecraft.getSystemTime() % 3000L) / 3000.0F * 8.0F;
            GL11.glTranslatef(f9, 0.0F, 0.0F);
            GL11.glRotatef(-50.0F, 0.0F, 0.0F, 1.0F);
            ItemRenderer.renderItemIn2D(tessellator, 0.0F, 0.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 256, 256, 0.0625F);
            GL11.glPopMatrix();
            GL11.glPushMatrix();
            GL11.glScalef(f8, f8, f8);
            f9 = (float)(Minecraft.getSystemTime() % 4873L) / 4873.0F * 8.0F;
            GL11.glTranslatef(-f9, 0.0F, 0.0F);
            GL11.glRotatef(10.0F, 0.0F, 0.0F, 1.0F);
            ItemRenderer.renderItemIn2D(tessellator, 0.0F, 0.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 256, 256, 0.0625F);
            GL11.glPopMatrix();
            GL11.glMatrixMode(GL11.GL_MODELVIEW);
            GL11.glDisable(GL11.GL_BLEND);
            GL11.glEnable(GL11.GL_LIGHTING);
            GL11.glDepthFunc(GL11.GL_LEQUAL);
        }

 

 

The renderEngine.bindTexture is throwing an error as well as the icon.getSheetWidth() and icon.getSheetHeight(), I'm assuming this is from before the texture changes since it refers to terrain.png, how do I fix this for 1.6.2? also which textures do I now need to reference instead of the "terrain.png" and the "/gui/items.png"?

 

If this has already been answered elsewhere could you point me in the right direction?

yeah in 1.6.2 you need to use ResourceLocation

and call a method from the renderEngine which use that (cant remember the exact name since its like func_xxxx_a(ResourceLocation))

 

beside that you shouldnt need getSheetWidth as getMinU getMaxU getMinV getMaxV should be enough for every needs

 

also, you probably dont need getMin/Max/U/V if you use ResourceLocation instead of the standard iconsheet

I am now using the following in the place of the bindTexture:

 

this.mc.renderEngine.func_110577_a(new ResourceLocation("/assets/MOD/textures/model/TEXTURE.png"));

 

however I am unsure what exactly I need to point the file path towards? Also what is the following line of code in reference to?

 

this.mc.renderEngine.bindTexture("%blur%/misc/glint.png");

[hydroflame]

as to where to point the file, theres a tutorial on the wiki about how to properlly setup images in your folders and all that

 

this.mc.renderEngine.bindTexture("%blur%/misc/glint.png");

thsi is 1.5.2 code and basicly points to a file called glint.png in the folder misc somewhere, not sure exactly what it is

[Ethyl_Amine]

Sorry I may have been unclear, I know how to setup textures correctly, I'm just unsure which actual texture to point it to, do I point it to my bow texture?

[hydroflame]

well yeah, if you want to render a bow, bind a bow texture .. if you want to render a couch  .... bind a couch texture
