IItem Renderer
IItem Renderer API gives you ability to hook into item rendering. More specifically:
- Use GL calls during item rendering.
- Super-ultra-hyper-dynamic rendering.
- Change GUI overlay.
Installation
- Go to releases section.
- Download API and drop contents into your src/api/java folder.
- Download DEV jar and drop into your run/mods folder.
Usage
- IItem Renderer API has only 2 classes: IItemRendererAPI and IItemRenderer.
- You implement IItemRenderer interface (you CAN use anonymous class), and you give an instance toIItemRendererAPI.registerIItemRenderer() with Item whose rendering IItemRenderer is going to handle.
- You use methods in your IItemRenderer implementation to do stuff.
All API methods and classes have description explaining how to use them
Demos will come in close future
