How to use custom_model_data in deluxemenus

[tepid glacier]

try

material FEATHER
model_data_component:
  strings: ["Test"]

You can also try

material: FEATHER
item_model: "item/weapons/mini24"

[night arch]

Lemme try that when im on my pc again tyty

[night arch]

Ive tried this one but it doesnt work

[tepid glacier]

Have you also tried using item_model?

[night arch]

it comes out as missing model

i think it might be because item model is adifferent type of data

item_model: "minecraft:stick"

when i try this it turns into an actual stick

when i do minecraft:Test it just turns into a feather

same thing with this item_model: "feather[minecraft:custom_name=Test]"

Ive found a solution

[tepid glacier]

Can you share please? A lot of people have had issues with the new component stuff, and it might help them.

this is waht i am using currently for the item .json file

this is what im using for the menu.yml

@tepid glacier im not sure if the plugin can even read custom_name so i had to work around it

i added custom_model_data as Test for the item model and under it added a custom_name also called Test

and as a fallback i added just custom_name, and the fallback for this is the default item model

[night arch]

this makes it so if the model has custom model data of Test, the mini14 model appears, if it has the custom model data and custom name of Test, the mini14 model appears also

[night arch]

this makes it so if it only has custom_name as Test it will appear as a mini14 model, the fallback is for when it doesnt have the custom name and itll just appear as a default feather

its a complicated workaround just to be able to use it and use the custom name along with it

if u dont wnat the custom name u can just set it as custom_model_data and put a name to that and thats literally it

the item json is so complicated only because i wanna make it a custom model data and work with custom names

i want it to be renamable in an anvil and pop up easily

[tepid glacier]

Oh. I see. I'm not sure what the difference between custom name and what DeluxeMenus uses as display_name is unfortunatelly.

[night arch]

I dont know i wish theres a developer here i can ask

Or if u can ask a dev for me

I mean how u can specify the custom_name for an item data

[night arch]

Display name in deluxemenus is just what it displays the item name as

minecraft:custom_name is a feature for items in vanilla that is in the nbt that lets u rename an item

its like custom_model_data but just for renaming it

[tepid glacier]

I'm a dev for DM. I was just writing my thoughts down with the hope I can look into it one day

but thanks for all the info

[night arch]

ohh

i dont think rn it can read custom_name for items but i might be wrong

i just cant find a way for it to read it

cuz if it can just read custom name itll be easy and i dont need to use cusotm model data for it to display themodel

[tepid glacier]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it can't, since that's a custom nbt component

[night arch]

damn

would be cool if its added in the future tho

cuz its basically liek getting it to work with optifine cit mod

[tepid glacier]

Well, we'll probably only add it if there's an API for it provided by Spigot (or Paper)

[night arch]

ah

i dont code so hopefull they add it cuz idk what goes on with the coding stuff

im not usre why teh item_model:item/weapons/mini14 doesnt work

it shows up as a missing model

my friend said it might be cuz i didnt put the weapons file in the atlas folder in my resource pack

[night arch]

Do u know how i can like say a message to the user that clicks on the item instead of me doing [console] msg?
