Understand When the 3D Model Appears and Disappears
When You See the 3D Model
The detailed 3D mace model displays only in specific situations:
- Main hand: When you hold the mace in your dominant hand
- Off hand: When you hold the mace in your secondary hand
- On your head: When using the item replace command to wear it
When You See the 2D Sprite
The mace returns to a flat 2D sprite in these situations:
- Inventory: When viewing your inventory screen
- Ground: When the mace is dropped in the world
- Item frames: When placed inside a decorative item frame
- Other players' hands: When another player holds it (you see their standard view)
This design keeps your inventory clean and organized while giving you a detailed weapon view during combat. The 3D model only appears when you're actively using the weapon, making it both functional and visually immersive without cluttering your storage areas.
