#### **Resourcepack hosting**
Remember to **decide** a [**resourcepack hosting**](https://itemsadder.devs.beer/japanese/plugin-usage/resourcepack-hosting) method **before** you **start**.\
I **advise** you to use **self-host** which is **easier** and **faster**, but you can also use **Dropbox** and similar

It is very important to set the textures/models to your bow item correctly, or you will get missing texture.

## Bow with `.png` images
### Configuration file
{% code title="contents/myitems/example\_bows.yml" %}
```yaml
info:
namespace: myitems
items:
my_bow:
enabled: true
name: My Bow
resource:
material: BOW
generate: true
texture: item/my_bow.png
```
{% endcode %}
### Texture files
The bow animates as you pull it, this allows you to have a single texture for each of these states.
`contents/myitems/textures/item/`
* `_0` - First pulling state
* `_1` - Second pulling state
* `_2` - Third pulling state
## Bow with 3D `.json` models
### Configuration file
{% code title="contents/myitems/example\_bows.yml" %}
```yaml
info:
namespace: myitems
items:
my_3dbow:
enabled: true
name: My 3D Bow
resource:
material: BOW
generate: false
model_path: item/my_3dbow
```
{% endcode %}
### Models files
`contents/myitems/models/item/`
* `_0` - First pulling state
* `_1` - Second pulling state
* `_2` - Third pulling state
Open your models files and update the textures paths. As you can see I updated the namespace.
Move your textures into the correct namespace, in this case `myitems`.
`contents/myitems/textures/item/`
