Whether you&#8217;re playing in singleplayer, multiplayer, or on Realms, you&#8217;ll have the same experience everywhere!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/qblFQruDyak\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>### Getting started<br \/>\nTo get started, you first need to craft a Sewing Kit.<\/p>\n<p>The Sewing Kit is crafted by placing the following items in a crafting grid:<br \/>\n&#8211; A bundle (undyed)<br \/>\n&#8211; Shears<br \/>\n&#8211; String<br \/>\n&#8211; Lapis Lazuli<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a shapeless crafting recipe, so it doesn&#8217;t matter where you place the items in the crafting grid.<\/p>\n<p>Note: Using an existing bundle for this crafting recipe will overwrite all items inside. Make sure you use an empty bundle. Be careful!<\/p>\n<p>Inside your Sewing Kit, you&#8217;ll find the following items:<br \/>\n&#8211; Sewing Shears<br \/>\n&#8211; Sewing String<br \/>\n&#8211; Shimmering Lapis Lazuli<\/p>\n<p>### Sewing Shears<br \/>\nThe Sewing Shears are used to change the model\/texture of your item.<\/p>\n<p>To use these special shears:<br \/>\n1. Rename any item to a namespaced ID of an item model definition in an anvil. I\u2019ll cover namespaced IDs in more detail in the \u201cSetting up your resourcepack\u201d section.<br \/>\n2. Hold your renamed item in your offhand, and the Sewing Shears in your mainhand.<br \/>\n3. Interact with the Sewing Shears (right-click by default).<br \/>\n4. The item model of the item in your offhand will be updated, and the custom name you gave it will be removed.<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to rename the item to anything you like after; it won\u2019t affect the model until you repeat the steps above.<\/p>\n<p>### Sewing String<br \/>\nThe Sewing String is used to change the equipment asset of your items. Equipment assets are the textures shown by armor, elytra, and more when worn on the body.<\/p>\n<p>To use this special string:<br \/>\n1. Rename any item to a namespaced ID of an equipment asset in an anvil. In the section &#8220;Setting up your resourcepack&#8221; I&#8217;ll dive into more detail on namespaced ID&#8217;s.<br \/>\n2. Hold your renamed item in your offhand, and the Sewing String in your mainhand.<br \/>\n3. Interact with the Sewing String (right-click by default).<br \/>\n4. The item model of the item in your offhand, and its equipment asset, will be updated. The custom name you gave it will be removed.<\/p>\n<p>Note: Pressing Sneak while using the Sewing String will update the equipment asset but not the item model.<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to rename the item to anything you like after; it won\u2019t affect the model or equipment asset until you repeat the steps above.<\/p>\n<p>### Shimmering Lapis Lazuli<br \/>\nShimmering Lapis Lazuli can toggle the enchantment glint of items.<\/p>\n<p>To use this special Lapis Lazuli:<br \/>\n1. Hold the Shimmering Lapis Lazuli in your mainhand, and the item of which you want to toggle the enchantment glint in your offhand.<br \/>\n2. Interact with the Shimmering Lapis Lazuli (right-click by default).<br \/>\n3. The enchantment glint of the item in your offhand will be toggled on or off.<\/p>\n<p>### Setting up your resourcepack<br \/>\nBefore we get started with our resourcepack, it&#8217;s important to understand that Minecraft makes a distinction between item models and equipment assets.<\/p>\n<p>Item models are the models and textures that are shown in your inventory.<br \/>\nEquipment assets are the textures that are shown on the player (and other mobs) when wearing armor and elytra.<\/p>\n<p>The Sewing Shears set item models, the Sewing String sets equipment assets.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve put together an example resourcepack to help you set up your own: Click here to download example resourcepack<\/p>\n<p>#### Setting up item models<br \/>\nIn your resourcepack, item models are stored on this path: `assets\/<namespace>\/items\/<your_item>.json`.<br \/>\nHere `<namespace>` is the namespace of your resourcepack, and `<your_item>` is the name of your item file.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned before, to get your item model on an item, you need to rename it to a namespaced ID. However, you don&#8217;t need to fill in the entire path.<br \/>\nThis is because Percy&#8217;s Sewing Kit uses Minecraft&#8217;s `item_model` component, which directly references the items folder, so you only need to fill in `<namespace>:<your_item>`.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you have a custom item model called `emerald_sword`, and the namespace for your resourcepack is `knights_of_emeralds`, you store your item model here:<br \/>\n`assets\/knights_of_emeralds\/items\/emerald_sword.json`, and rename your in-game item to `knights_of_emeralds:emerald`.<\/p>\n<p>#### Setting up equipment assets<br \/>\nThe Sewing String is used to set equipment assets. But because it also sets the item models, there are a few catches. First, let&#8217;s explain where equipment models are stored, then I&#8217;ll go into how to set up item models for this specifically.<\/p>\n<p>In your resourcepack, equipment assets are stored on this path: `assets\/<namespace>\/equipment\/<your_asset>.json`.<br \/>\nHere `<namespace>` is the namespace of your resourcepack, and `<your_asset>` is the name of your equipment file.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned before, to get your equipment asset on an item, you need to rename it to a namespaced ID. However, you don&#8217;t need to fill in the entire path.<br \/>\nThis is because Percy&#8217;s Sewing Kit uses Minecraft&#8217;s `equippable` component, which directly references the items folder, so you only need to fill in `<namespace>:<your_asset>`.<\/p>\n<p>Because this sets both the equipment asset for your item, as well as the item model, your equipment asset and your item model need to have the same name.<br \/>\nFor example, if you have custom elytra named `emerald_wings`, both the equipment asset and item model should have that name.<\/p>\n<p>However, armor shares one equipment asset file per set (e.g. all diamond armor is in one equipment file), but item models for each armor item are unique (e.g. boots have a different texture than helmets). To deal with that, the Sewing Kit will append `_<armor type>` to the item model.<\/p>\n<p>It will append the following for each armor type:<br \/>\n&#8211; helmet > `_helmet`<br \/>\n&#8211; chestplate > `_chestplate`<br \/>\n&#8211; leggings > `_leggings`<br \/>\n&#8211; boots > `_boots`<br \/>\n&#8211; horse armor > `_horse_armor` (1.21.8V1 and up)<br \/>\n&#8211; nautilus armor > `_nautilus_armor` (1.21.11V1 and up)<\/p>\n<p>This means that in your resourcepack, the item models for each armor type should have the same name as the equipment model, only with &#8220;`_<armor type>`&#8221; appended at the end.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you have custom emerald armor and the namespace for your resourcepack is `knights_of_emeralds`, and you rename a chestplate to `knights_of_emeralds:emerald`, the datapack will set the equipment asset to the file stored here: `assets\/knights_of_emeralds\/equipment\/emerald.json`, and the item model to the file stored here: `assets\/knights_of_emeralds\/items\/emerald_chestplate.json`<\/p>\n<p>For elytra, wolf armor, harnesses, carpets, and saddles, it won\u2019t append anything.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An immersive datapack to get custom Items, Armor and Elytra!
