Still an issue in 15w34c.
Updated the attached resource pack to a 1.9-compatible pack. To put the item model on the head of an armor stand use:
/replaceitem entity @e[type=ArmorStand,c=1] slot.armor.head golden_hoe 1
Added an image to highlight why "shade": false not working for item models is a problem.
Left ArmorStand rotation: Head:[0f,0f,0f]
Right ArmorStand rotation: Head:[30f,0f,0f]
Still affects Armor Stands in 15w32a, though not any other mobs or players.
Still an issue in 15w31c.
Still present in 15w31c.
"/replaceitem takes into accout if it is able to be placed in that slot"
It seems odd to me that all blocks are considered "permitted" items, but not all items, particularly now that items can be properly rendered. I'm not buying it's intended (perhaps out of wishful thinking). Massively cuts the utility of allowing item rendering in the head slot if a new entity has to be summoned every time you want to change the item, or if you have to use entitydata.
EDIT: Glad to see it'll be fixed 😃
Never worked in 1.8.x for items. Replaceitem was broken in 15w31a, so no way to know (ignore my claim above that it did work in 31a, clearly wasn't thinking). Tested summoning with the item and that does work in this snapshot, though it makes no sense to me that summoning with the item works, but replaceitem doesn't.
Yes, it worked in 15w31a (https://i.imgur.com/MqMsbh6.png) and should be working as per tweets from Searge (https://twitter.com/SeargeDP/status/623125935445921792) and Grum (https://twitter.com/_grum/status/623411853109141504)
As requested, added a resource pack implementing the example item model code for the white wool block. Note that this was zipped on a mac, so there may be some extra (unnecessary) files in the zip.
Confirmed for 1.8.3.
Confirmed for 1.8.2.
Confirmed for 1.8.2-pre7.
Confirmed for 1.8.2-pre6.
Confirmed in 1.8.2-pre3.
Confirmed in 1.8.2-pre1.
Still present in 1.8.1-pre5
I believe the issue is with OnGround:2b. OnGround is binary and can only be 0 or 1.
Why was the status of this changed to "Awaiting Response" after Simplius updated the "Affects Version/s" field to include 1.10 in response to bleuthoot's question?
