Rendering API

Accessories allow for the ability to register a custom render if desired for an item, but dose include some default rendering behavior for included slots. Such can be added to within the DefaultAccessoryRenderer if you include your own slot and want similar behavior.

Rendering Methods

An Accessory rendering can be down within the AccessoryRenderer which gives you the ability to render you accessory based on the given entity and slot information passed through the render call with helper method used to position such called transformToModelPart. Such a method takes in the living entity's ModelPart and relative percent values to transform the stack based on the ModelPart.

Furthermore, such interface also adds the ability to render the Accessory within the first person view if desired though the shouldRenderInFirstPerson method which may be desired for gloves or rings.

Default Renderer

Provided by Accessories is a default rendering for items that have yet to register a render giving some visual for Accessories by default with the behavior being overridden either by toggling such within NBT or by registering an implemented renderer or even a null value to prevent rendering of such default behavior.

As talked about you can register a slot for default rendering if a custom slot was created with the main method for such being DefaultAccessoryRenderer#registerHelper which requires an implemented DefaultAccessoryRenderer.RenderHelper allowing for the positioning on the entity and call of the basic item rendering.
