I don't think Modloader changed, Minecraft's armor coding changed, I still can't figure it out either :sad.gif:

oh, there is an EnumArmorMaterial class now because of enchantments, it's like tools, only more complicated

I found how:

 public ItemArmor(int i, EnumArmorMaterial enumarmormaterial, int j, int k)
    {
        super(i);
        material = enumarmormaterial;
        armorType = k;
        renderIndex = j;
        damageReduceAmount = enumarmormaterial.func_40574_b(k);
        setMaxDamage(enumarmormaterial.func_40576_a(k));
        maxStackSize = 1;
    }

For some reason I can't actually equip the armor, can someone help me?

Do I have to edit the RenderPlayer.java?

i agree with xtwilight3 after looking at it it is easy to work out

Make sure to make your Custom ItemArmor class to extends ItemArmor

when i extend ItemArmor, super(i) screws up. plz help!

._. ModLoader javadocs say something about adding Armor. Look it up, will do good for you!

PS: you don't need to make a new Item!

with the new release of 1.2 ModLoader has changed the normal ModLoader.AddArmor to ModLoader.addArmor. but i still get the render problem and cant see the actual armour when wearing it although i have made the texture for it. i guess we need to be told were to put the path directory for where we have to put the textures :/

all you need to do is:

1. Add and enum armor material called obsidian and setup its properties. (so just mod enumarmormaterial class)
2. Go into render player class and add obsidian at the end of the list of materials for armor
3. Make your armor code somthing like this:

new ItemArmor(ID, EnumArmorMaterial.OBSIDIAN, 5, (0-3)).setItemName("itemname");

// the 5 is for the render player class if you haven't entered any other armors then obsidian should be the 5 one on the list (starting from 0). 0-3 is the part of the armor(0 = helmet, 1 = chestplate, 2 = leggings, 3 = boots). you will need to make a obsidian_1 and obsidian_2 and put them in the armor folder for rendering purposes.

Thanks for bumping up a post that is over 10 months old and says it is solved. Please try not to do it again.

Why when I wear my armor its white?
