About the plugin

Upgraded and improved, Nerdy's New Curios API plugin introduces new mod elements to MCreator that allow for creating Curios compatible slots and baubles that can provide both visual model rendering and functionality.

While Curios API must always be enabled in the workspace, it does not become a required dependency, remaining completely optional. When Curios is not loaded alongside your mod, your baubles only lose their Curios functionality and your mod is able to be loaded alone.

Java plugins must be enabled for this plugin to load

How to use?

First of all, despite being optional when loading the mod, Curios API must be enabled in your workspace so the Curios code can compile. You will need to do this in workspace settings.

You can then create a curios bauble and select the item element you want to turn into a bauble.

To render a model when equipping the bauble, you will need to make a java model the same way you would for an armor, and select the pieces so they can match the movement of the player model

Showcase

With the curios slot mod element, you can also create new slots for your baubles not included in curios. The texture should match the size of the slot. If not, it will be stretched and resized to fit.

No, they are not in any way compatible. This is up to the authors of the APIs to figure out.

Can you add the feature to make it so the model follows the hand. Example being when swinging the arm the model doesn't not follow(hitting the air). I'm making a glove charm and it not following with the players arm is kinda breaking. I know it's possible because artifact mod has an glove model that moves with the hand.

I'm limited by the models blockbench produces. That requires manually editing the java model code.

for some reason item states aren't working properly. I made 2 items, they are the exact same except 1 thing, 1 is a normal item, the other is a Curios Bauble. the Curios Bauble doesn't change states when it needs to... I'm using 4.9 and a custom slot.

so uh im running this plugin on 2023.1, but when I make a custom player model (I'm trying to make a set of pants and a shirt) the armor renders incorrectly on my player, like my arms and legs are going through the armor idle animation, and when I sneak the rotation is way off.

Hi. I made 4 Bauble Items that render custom Models and 2 of them are gliching when I sneak - only the ones in custom Slots break for me. How can I fix this?

Hi, I want to render my necklace curio item on the player. I have created a model and it appears in-game when the item is worn, but it is stuck on the player's feet. How do I get it to appear on their neck instead?

I would check your anchors with the pivot tool, something similar happens with armor if these aren't set properly

how do you set them properly?

Is there something like "add only if the mod is loaded" or is it possible to implement it? I want my mod to have curios items but not have the curios dependency.

I'll see if it's possible when I have time

Help, give me a file to support forge 1.16.5

thank you very much when you find out can you mention me here?

Sure, but I'm very busy these days

no problem

Can you make a Fabric version of the plugin?

The curios mod doesn't exist for fabric

am i doing something wrong or can't head baubles follow the head movements?
is there a way to set baubles in slots using procedures?

You need to set the animations to the bauble model like entities. Also no, you can't.

thanks!! and thanks for the info. If it's possible it would be a great update one day.
