Since it's an Entity you can still put blocks in the space it occupies too. The item frame itself is an Entity, so I don't think it has a corresponding TileEntity class.

It's super simple if you dig into the code once and figure out how it works. I've done that kind of thing on a few occasions in BTW, and it works just fine. Storing in metadata for vanilla blocks can be a little tricky for the reasons you are mentioning (since vanilla code may no longer be able to properly interpret the resulting bit-field), but the NBT data that tile entities use is perfectly safe as long as you remember to check whether the tag exists or not in the load function (since you might be loading a vanilla map that doesn't have the data). If the code doesn't specifically request that tag, then it is just discarded. No, what you do is store the data as an NBT tag.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but changing the tile entitiy to store the state could cause issues if the mod was removed from a map? The thing I like about it as it stands, is that it only changes numbers (and ordering of logic) in the rendering of the frame, so this could be added and removed from a client with no problem.

Thanks for feedback, and I'll be editing this post to have the download once this is all worked out.

Putting the re-obfuscated file up for download somewhere should work for people to just drop into their jar, so long as FC hasn't also made any changes to RenderItemFrame.java, right? Or is there another way this is meant to be done? Am I meant to use modloader in some way? The other thing, is I am actually clueless about the proper way to distribute this.

Does anything in BTW break that rule?Īctually, should I just put up all versions and give people the choice? The second was kind of trying to split the difference to minimize the frame (and because I'd coded it to be possible by changing a single number), but I'm not sure about breaking the '1/16th of a block minimum dimension' rule of minecraft. I think the first one looks most fitting for the vanilla look, but the seemless tiling of the last is super nice and you could add your own 'frame' with molding in BTW.

Or the map scaled right up to the full face of the block, such that the map sits on the 'front' of the frame and tiles seamlessly with the ones next to it: Going for a frame half that thickness: (actually, half thick looks dumb) Keeping a '1/16th of a block' frame like the current item frames: Problem is, I've got a few options for how this should look: Pictures are below, but I also want some opinions. What I've done is to make it so that when a map is placed into an item frame, the item frame will expand to the full block face size and the map will look much larger in it. Turns out with a bit of refactoring in the item frame renderer, it was actually super simple. Finally got sick of it and dug into MCP to see how hard it would be to fix. So I was playing through BTW again and I was struck by how uselessly maps in item frames were implemented in vanilla (it's almost like they don't play the game or something.), and how much of a lost opportunity they were. Now the mod only comes in one flavor, and instead of being able to rotate the map, you right click to toggle it to either have the map sitting inset in the frame or borderless, sitting in front of the frame.

Also, since this is just a client mod which changes a single rendering class and doesn't add any new data or blocks, it can be removed at any time on an update without any problems to your map. This only modifies the rendering class for the item frame, so it should be compatible with any mod which doesn't modify that particular file. Simply download the version you want, and drop the class file into your minecraft jar. I'd appreciate if people could do any kind of testing they can think with them and leave some feedback and pictures of them in use. V0.8 Alpha release - I've not done extensive testing on this yet, so be warned that I'm not 100% sure it is entirely safe to your world, but I also can't think of any possible way it could break anything. It seems to be working fine, but make sure you backup before installing just in case. V1.0 Now that BTW is working on 1.5.1, I guess I should push the updated version. I was always disappointed with how this was done in vanilla, so I finally decided to do something about it: What this add-on / mod does is to change the way item frames render when they have a map in them.
