From pillager outpost loot table

[tropic dew]

ahhh I seeee

thank you I was literally just figuring it out too lol

I guess I just gotta find the number that corresponds to the variant I want

[ebon wren]

This is for random data; for a specific data value, you can use
{
"function": "set_data",
"data": 30
}.

[tropic dew]

I found it

                        {
                            "function": "set_data",
                            "data": 6
                        }
                    ]```

Was looking for "Call"

thank you so much for your help bro

[celest acorn]

How do I give an item armor toughness?

and knockback resistance too?

[dark junco]

Neither is possible

[celest acorn]

thats sad thank you

Do you know how to make dyeable armor?

[wraith violet]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/documents/addcustomitems?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable#dyeable-custom-items

[celest acorn]

thanks

How do I make some parts not colored?

[wraith violet]

Set the alpha to 1

[celest acorn]

Thanks it works

[wary elk]

how can i make a weapon 2 handed?

[frosty oak]

Can items have enchants by default

[tranquil wind]

no

[frosty oak]

Rip. It was going to be a workaround until the scripting thing I need comes to stable

[sleek ginkgo]

Is it possible to change the texture of an item based on data?
i cant find anything about it

and if possible name or description, kinda like enchanted books

[tranquil wind]

no

[tranquil wind]

with lore, yes

which can be applied by using the lore function in loot tables, or you can set it with scripts.

custom items cant have default lore

[crystal grove]

Does anyone know how to make an item play a sound when you interact with it while holding it in your hand?

[dark junco]

You can play a sound through the playsound command, the playSound method in scripting, or in an animation

[spark swift]

using loot tables yes

e.g.

{
          "type": "item",
          "name": "minecraft:diamond_sword",
          "weight": 3,
          "functions": [
            {
              "function": "enchant_with_levels",
              "treasure": true,
              "levels": {
                "min": 20,
                "max": 39
              }
            }
          ]
        },

[frosty oak]

Not what I meant but fair enough

[spark swift]

u want to like have them have enchantments straight out the creative inventory or something?

also WHEN IS MINECRAFT GOING TO ADD ARMOR TOUGHNESS ON CUSTOM ARMOR

[frosty oak]

Pretty much, as a workaround until beforeEvents got entity hurt comes to stable

[spark swift]

what are you trying to do if you dont mind me asking?

[frosty oak]

I have custom set of boots that increase jump height. But fall resistance doesn't change

[spark swift]

i dont quite understand

what enchant are you trying to give it?

feather falling?

alternatively you can use damage sensors in the player JSON

but if you want to try avoid editing player json i understand

[frosty oak]

Yeah we have been strictly avoiding it

[spark swift]

Isn't there a damage absorption item component?

I'm almost certain you can just make it disable fall damage

[frosty oak]

No that I know of

[frosty oak]

That's not the goal

reduced not disabled

[spark swift]

I was looking at the item components earlier. Its there still

Well yeah not sure then

[cerulean grove]

Waht does armor toughness do?

[split pumice]

Is it possible to use the default item model in an attachable?

Ex: just rendering the item but allowing me to add animations to it

Also are custom spears possible? Looks like the vanilla spears are data driven but want to know if it's a dead end before pursuing

[wraith violet]

• No, you need your own model
• Yes

[dry pilot]

Can I remove armor equip sound?

[low quest]

Are you able to add vanilla items to custom item tags?

[wraith violet]

If theyre data driven yes.

[low quest]

probably last question for a bit, is there a way to use the dyeable item component so that I can color a texture, but prevent the player from actually dyeing the item themselves

[wraith violet]

Not that I know.

[low quest]

do you know if it's possible to use the same system that bedrock uses for coloring the firework charge texture? the bedrock samples has a white version but the behavior pack files are missing for firework charge so im not sure if that means its hardcoded or just not provided

[wraith violet]

Yes, use https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1300114354129338408

[low quest]

tysm

[ebon wren]

But won't that cause problems with VV?

[vague canopy]

This is a armor I wanted to add for my addon where it’s a boot slot but goes onto your torso when equipped but I don’t know how to make it a armor does anyone know how I can achieve this

[spark swift]

I've been told borion item hacks work...

[karmic pivot]

How does one apply hides_player_location to armor directly? In their code

[wraith violet]

Add it in the component.

[karmic pivot]

Yeah I tried it. Yet it doesn't seem to work.

Then I realizes I try to update the helmet to the newest format. And it just breaks the helmet

[wraith violet]

Works for me on latest format version.

[karmic pivot]

What format do you use?

[wraith violet]

1.26.0

[karmic pivot]

Mind if I send you a example of my helmet?

[wraith violet]

Open a post.

    }
}

Why does my count for the recipe not work?

[ebon wren]

Because it doesn't exist, it's just for results.

[supple spade]

Anyone knows how I can make a drink that can give you effects? Trying to make alchohol in minecraft

[ebon wren]

Either use food in format version 1.10 or use a custom component.

[supple spade]

Thanks I used a custom component

Now I can finally get drunk with my friends in minecraft

[tranquil wind]

lol

[dark junco]

I wish I made a project this simple
All my ideas are long winded 😭

[still meteor]

Helloooo, is it possible to add a particle for attachment models and for the emitter to function under a certain animation?

[dark junco]

Particles can be used in animation on attachables and work the same way, however they do not work on custom locators on the attachable geometry, so you will either need to do without use an alternative

[still meteor]

dang huhu is it possible to do it another way tho?

[short garden]

any idea what does this mean

[dark junco]

There is a way to do this but you would require using the player.entity.json file to add a locator in the player geometry, then you can add that locator to the attachable geometry, or just work in the player.entity.json file
But it's not possible to do with just the attachable

[still meteor]

dang, sad

thank u tho

[dark junco]

Its a bug, and not an intended feature, so I'm hoping they fix it soon
Though there's no clue as to when they fix it

[vague canopy]

I’ve been stuck on this for awhile I made all custom animations for the player but I don’t know how to make them work through a animation controller nothing plays does anyone know a template I can use for the queries or something

[chilly fern]

Did I do good for my first addon?

Just a simple sword

[chilly fern]

how do i make a item have a sword skill

[tranquil beacon]

Is there a way to decrement the durability of an item during recipes?

[ebon wren]

No

[tranquil beacon]

rip

[dark junco]

What do you have in mind
As in something happens on right click/interaction

[chilly fern]

yes

[dark junco]

You can use custom components or the itemUse event to make the item usable on right click

[river anchor]

Anyone know how to play an animation of an item from a script?

[dark junco]

You can use this tutorial to play them specifically through scripts
https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1463304436330922014
or you can just use query.is_using_item if the situation calls for it, its much better when it works for your situation, but you might need the other one

[river anchor]

its for pokedex

on pokemon addons

open and close animation

[dark junco]

You'd definitely want to use the through scripts method then

[river anchor]

I can't get it to work 😭

[neon arch]

Not sure if here or #1067869022273667152 is the best place, but is the drink animation hardcoded? I need it so I can modify it for an attachable.

[dark junco]

Entities is the best place for animations, but don't worry, still relevant here too
It is hardcoded, but why not just make a custom animation to play instead

[neon arch]

I was hoping to have the exact same animation, just adapted for the attachable. I can make it myself, but I’m not great at recreating animations, so I wanted to double check. Thank you!

[dark junco]

No problem, I hope it goes well!

[pearl ruin]

hi would someone mind helping me: why is my custom component not working

import { world, system } from "@minecraft/server"

console.warn("Script loaded")

const onUseWand = {
    onUse(event) {
        console.warn("wand used")
        event.source.runCommandAsync("setblock ~ ~ ~ stone")
    },
}

system.beforeEvents.startup.subscribe(({ itemComponentRegistry }) => {
    itemComponentRegistry.registerCustomComponent("raycast:useWand", onUseWand)
})

script is loading but command not running nor is 'wand used'

[spark swift]

const onUseWand = {
onUse(event) {
console.warn("wand used")
event.source.runCommandAsync("setblock ~ ~ ~ stone")
},
}

Is not how you define the interface

Moreover, that is not how you define functions

Here is an example

So in your case, change it to this:

const onUseWand = {
    onUse: (event) => {
        console.warn("wand used")
        event.source.runCommandAsync("setblock ~ ~ ~ stone")
    },
}

[tranquil wind]

both are correct.

[spark swift]

Is it really? I guess I don't know JS 💀

[tranquil wind]

yes, you can define a function like that too.

[pearl ruin]

thanks anyway guys, got it working eventually. just rusty

[neat helm]

does anyone know how to connect particles to a item or player, for example= i want to as if i where to use a particle and try and bind it to my hand it would move with the hand like if it was a item it self

like i were to play a animation it would move with the hand

[sharp dragon]

is it possible to adapt trims to a custom armor model?

[ebon wren]

Yea

[ebon wren]

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1382268297948434533

[spark flare]

how i can fix this?

[chilly fern]

leme guess u used same method as i do?

addon maker

[chilly fern]

since i fixed mine the solution is adjusting the animation

so it wont cover your pov

[spark flare]

i m using json and script api not addon maker app

instead of i using mt manager

[spark flare]

how

[chilly fern]

okay

[chilly fern]

animation on block bench

idk how to explain it

[spark flare]

ok i figured out with help

[chilly fern]

am new to Modding and not rlly a good teacher maybe ask someone who is better

bruh i meant addons not modding

got too addicted on java

[sharp dragon]

Thanks!

[spark flare]

also how i can fix this attack anim?
-# without touching player animations of json

[wraith tiger]

( Here's a complicated solution )

• Use Attachable
• Attachable's Model Binding to the head bone with molang condition c.is_first_person ? 'head' : 'rightItem' so it doesn't swing with the hand
• Make a custom swing animation and play it when c.owning_entity -> v.attack_time > 0 or smt.

[tranquil wind]

and alternatively, you can edit animation.player.first_person.attack_rotation to disable the swing.

query.equipped_item_any_tag('slot.weapon.mainhand', 'tag') ? 0 : normal value

[wraith tiger]

I think that count as "touching player animations of json"

[tranquil wind]

glanced over the tiny text

lol

[gaunt scaffold]

[ebon wren]

Is your item in your creative inventory?

[gaunt scaffold]

I got it fixed it was a format version conflict across multiple items

[minor gust]

How can I play the place item animation when I use my item?

[fervent maple]

You can't since there's no way to make the player swing using scripts

[minor gust]

😔

and with custom animations or something?

[fervent maple]

the first person item renderer is hardcoded so you can't apply animations to it without making an attachable which would create its own problems

[minor gust]

well, then I will just do it without animation, thanks

[worn badge]

How to restart a looping animation in an attachable?

I tried to create a pull animation using attachable, but I encountered a problem where it started in the middle.

[tranquil wind]

there is a way to trigger the swing animation by using, you can just give it the throwable component with do_swing_animation true.

requires the projectile component aswell

to make it not throw the projectile, you'll need to cancel the item use with scripts.

[fervent maple]

it will play the shoot sound too

[tranquil wind]

im pretty sure it didnt when I did this

hm

[ebon wren]

Use the "onUseon" custom component

[tranquil wind]

no

its needs to be when you use it in general, not use it on a block

[worn badge]

I solved it using a controller!

[hushed blaze]

caliiengalleta

Is there a way to use costum elytras? I'm just confirming, since I understand that not

[wraith tiger]

Personally, I think creating custom elytra is possible. But for casual dev, it would be a nightmare because you need to manually calculate all the angular momentum (Mostly via ScriptAPI).

Most Custom Elytra you see are just reskinned Elytra with different textures.

[rose root]

hey folks, is there a way to cancel the book UI from opening and instead open my own UI??

[tranquil wind]

do you mean like a server form in scripts?

[ebon wren]

If it's just for the server UI, wouldn't you just create a custom item?

[tranquil wind]

maybe they want like a sneak interaction thing for the vanilla book for some reason

[rose root]

I'm desperatly trying to create a "fake" book, that looks like a vanilla book but loads a custom UI, i have the custom item, but its 3 times the size of a vanilla book even though i used the vanilla texture 16x16 and i just cant get the attachable i have to add to scale it to sit right in the players hand, so....... plan B was to give the player a standard book, git it some lore and detect on itemUse and getLore to load the custom UI, but it just loads the vanilla book UI

[wraith violet]

Are you making an attachable that's causing it to be bigger?

Regardless, https://stirante.com/script/server/2.6.0/classes/WorldBeforeEvents.html#itemuse Use beforeEvents.itemUse->cancel the interaction then show Form.

[rose root]

i'm making an attachable because i need to scale it down. It need to look identicle to a normal book as certain players have a book the opens a special menu and other players have just a book..... i totaly forgot to look at the beforeEvents

[wraith violet]

Why do you need to scale it down if it's already 16x16?

[rose root]

In 1st person, it looks the right size, in 3rd Person its about 3 times a big and the wrong angle in the players hand

[wraith violet]

I have 0 clue how that could possibly happen.

[ebon wren]

Can you show me your code?

[rose root]

i know right!! and the only way i know to solve it is to create an attachable and animation and correct the scale/rotation using that OR intecept the itemUse with a normal book and direct it to a custom UI

[rose root]

which bit?? the item??

[ebon wren]

Yea

[rose root]

        "minecraft:allow_off_hand": false
      }
    }
  }```

[ebon wren]

That's the problem.

You are using the "minecraft:hand_equipped" component.

[rose root]

Gad Dang it!! i didn't even think to look at the item components!! it does pay to read the documentation. many thanks

[wraith violet]

Ugh, the mc wiki.

[ebon wren]

Yea

[rose root]

i should update the wiki with example images!! That was a waste of several hours trying to fix a problem i didnt know i caused!! ah Bedrock Development, what a heartless bitch you are!!

[ebon wren]

Both wikis are good, but the Bedrock Wiki is more focused on creators, while the Minecraft Wiki is more for documentation.

[ebon wren]

Well, if you read this, it already explains it.

[wraith violet]

Nah.

[rose root]

very true, but not knowing that "rendering like a tool" is different to rendering like everything else in the game, does make both wiki's moot

[ebon wren]

Well, I think everyone knows that the tool is rendered differently to appear larger and better in hand.

[rose root]

well i certainly do now

[cosmic narwhal]

Anyone know how I can sort spawn eggs in the inventory?

Trying to use crafting item catalog, but I am getting the content log about category originally being set to items now being changed to nature... Just trying to order the default spawn eggs for my custom entities but I guess I can make a custom item to spawn them

[tawny bone]

does anybody know how to lengthen a sword's texture?
like how to make it very long

[livid salmon]

cant use locators in attachable models. Hence cant effectively use particle animations as well.

[dark junco]

I've heard that apparently if you reference a locator present on the player geometry, you can make an attachable create useful particles in animations

I haven't tried it, however

[livid salmon]

The problem still remains though. I want a locator that is attached to attachable model and not player model. Especially because editing player.json or player model is not good according to addon guidelines

[spice vault]

guys what are dynamic properties and what does it do 😭

@ me if anyone does have info

pls

[dark junco]

I meant there is the lead_hold locator for people who want to affect the hand only

[dark junco]

Dynamic properties are a form of saving data in scripting, where you can save data as a:

• string,
• Vector3,
• integer,
• float
• and boolean,
  under a string identifier to a:
• World
• Entity
• ItemStack

[livid salmon]

Yes and that is inconvenient. Image you want to spawn particles at left hand side or head or whatever position attachable is attached to. So locations and particle animations should be properly supported in attachable animations and models.

[spice vault]

Can i use it for eg in a katana that allows the user to use 2 abilities and shift between each one?

As in like when a dynamic property is this, the ability is lets say ab1 and when we change dynamjc property the ability is ab2

[dark junco]

Yes, you can

When you right click, you can set the dynamic property to a value, and every right click you can check the value of the dynamic property, to change the property perform the other ability

[harsh viper]

Where is this part located in the Bedrock sample UI file? I've tried searching through the HUD screen and found nothing related. I currently want to customize the tooltips of the items a bit, so I really need this information. Does anyone know?

[livid salmon]

probably lore with custom emotes

[wraith tiger]

It's Item Lore and Glyph. Not JsonUI

[celest acorn]

"minecraft:display_name": {
    "value": "item.bucketCustomFish.name entity.blaze.name"
}

Why does this not work?

It should show Bucket of Blaze forexample

[wraith violet]

What does it say?

[celest acorn]

"item.bucketCustomFish.name entity.blaze.name"

[wraith violet]

You need % in front of the keys.

[celest acorn]

Ohh

[wraith violet]

%blah1 %blah2

[celest acorn]

is this wrong then?
https://wiki.bedrock.dev/items/item-components#display-name-object

[wraith violet]

No. Because that is only 1 lang key.

[celest acorn]

Okay thanks

works thanks

wait do I need to put a space between the keys?

so like

%... %...

or can I do

%...%...

bc the one without space doesnt work

and the key item.bucketCustomFish.name does have a space in it

so its like double space

in the name

[wraith violet]

Remove the space then?

[celest acorn]

I did but now its works

"%item.bucketCustomFish.name%entity.blaze.name"

[wraith violet]

I meant in your lang key.

[celest acorn]

its the default minecraft one

here its in the lang files

item.bucketCustomFish.name=Bucket of 

it has a space in it

[wraith violet]

Use a custom one.

[celest acorn]

If I do that I have to do it for every language thats why I used the mc one

Oh I found a bug

in the hotbar its fine but in the inv its buged

[celest acorn]

and I found a solution by adding §r

[celest acorn]

Is it possible to make when only certain experimental is on it register the item?

like Education Edition items

[ebon wren]

This is a Minecraft bug when setting the name via script.

[celest acorn]

I dont set it via script

[ebon wren]

No? Well, it should be a similar problem.

[celest acorn]

I also found another renamed item bug

zombie pigman called zombified piglin

but when you want to spawn one it called zombie_pigman

[wraith violet]

Thats not a bug. Thats just them not updating the id bc it would break things.

[celest acorn]

oh ok

[ebon wren]

It would be nice to have a system for them to convert the ID; in fact, this was already done once with the villager.

[celest acorn]

is there a work around?

I tried to make a throwable fireball item and it just shows the item with 64 stack without icon

Does anyone know what did i do wrong and how to fix it?

[ebon wren]

Are there any log errors occurring?

[elfin niche]

Yup just figured it out, i used the wrong format version

[elfin niche]

And this one it' cuz i put invalid menu category

What does LevelSoundEvent mean?

[wraith violet]

The hardcoded sound stuff.

😁 In 26.30 however, we can use custom sounds.

[elfin niche]

How do u do that?

[wraith violet]

Just define it in sound definitions and then use it. 😁

[elfin niche]

So the record component is usable now?

[wraith violet]

In 26.30 yeah

[ebon wren]

But remember, this is experimental and requires the beta APIs option.

[wraith violet]

Ok 👍

[elfin niche]

Is there a way to enable experiment with achievement on?

[wraith violet]

I would wait for it to stabilise 😁

[ebon wren]

No, as Smokey said, in this case it's better to wait for it to stabilize. I SUPPOSE it might stabilize at 26.40.

Can someone show me how to make item component that triggers when hitting entity

I tried using the wiki item event tutorial, and it didn't work

So i messed around and got here:

import { system, world } from "@minecraft/server";

/** @type {import("@minecraft/server").ItemCustomComponent} */
const effectHitComponent = {
world.afterEvents.entityHitEntity.subscribe((event) {
event.hitEntity.runcommand("function tomko/weapon_hitted_punish")
event.damagingEntity.runcommand("function tomko/weapon_hit_buff")
}
};

system.beforeEvents.startup.subscribe(({ itemComponentRegistry }) => {
itemComponentRegistry.registerCustomComponent("tomoko_cult:reward_punish", effectHitComponent);
});

Content log said it was missing a }

[silver zinc]

Can using scripts like addTag make custom item tags or no?

[wraith violet]

No, you cannot dynamically add tags to items.

[silver zinc]

Is there something close to this not like this exact idea but like adding something like tag-esc to an item or no

If not that's fine

[wraith violet]

Unstackable items with dynamic properties.
