One of the X-Ray mods renders an outline of certain blocks, even when they are hidden. I want to be able to do the same, but restricted by range.

 

I have been searching the reverse engineered documentation, but still have next to no idea how to achieve this. My best guess so far is to subscribe to the RenderLevelStageEvent event and then iterate through all blocks within range, test if they need to be outlined/highlighted, and then....stuff them into the OutlineBufferSource to be rendered some how?

 

I am not asking for code (although that would be nice) but just a few hints of the basic process.

 

Many thanks.

More or less. It would be better if you could store all the blocks you want to outline once so that you can just loop through that list. You may also want to take a look at the GameRenderer to see how block outlining is done when the player hovers over it and just modify the depth test.

Thanks.

 

Where do I find the source code for the GameRenderer, or do you just mean look at the APIs available?

RenderLevelStageEvent gives me a LevelRenderer which has a renderLineBox() function. I am going to have a go with that but am not sure if the line box will be rendered in front even though the vertex positions are behind other blocks.

Here is my code. It is late, I am tired, I have worked hard to get something sensible to compile in the face of significantly incomplete documentation, and it doesn't work. I would be so very very grateful if someone could help me work out why this isn't working.


    @SubscribeEvent
    public static void onViewBlocks(RenderLevelStageEvent event)
    {
        Minecraft  minecraft = Minecraft.getInstance();
        Player     player    = (Player)(minecraft.player);
        if (RenderLevelStageEvent.Stage.AFTER_SOLID_BLOCKS == event.getStage())
        {
            ClientLevel         level           = minecraft.level;
            LevelRenderer       renderer        = event.getLevelRenderer();
            OutlineBufferSource buffer_source   = minecraft.renderBuffers().outlineBufferSource();
            VertexConsumer      vertex_consumer = buffer_source.getBuffer(RenderType.lines());

            // Highlight all blocks within 4 blocks range.
            int                 min_x           = player.getBlockX() - 4;
            int                 max_x           = player.getBlockX() + 4;
            int                 min_y           = player.getBlockY() - 4;
            int                 max_y           = player.getBlockY() + 4;
            int                 min_z           = player.getBlockZ() - 4;
            int                 max_z           = player.getBlockZ() + 4;

            for (int x = min_x; x < max_x; x++)
            {
                for (int y = min_y; y < max_y; y++)
                {
                    for (int z = min_z; z < max_z; z++)
                    {
                         BlockPos block = new BlockPos(x, y, z)
                         Vec3 centre = block.getCenter();

                         if (centre.distanceToSqr(player.getEyePosition()) <= m_range_squared)
                         {
                             int ore = getOre(level.getBlockState(block).getBlock());  // Check that the block is an ore we want to highlight.

                             if (-1 < ore) {

                                         // If I put debug in here, it successfully reports the block as to be highlighted.

                                         renderer.renderLineBox(vertex_consumer,
                                                                (centre.x - 0.5),
                                                                (centre.y - 0.5),
                                                                (centre.z - 0.5),
                                                                (centre.x + 0.5),
                                                                (centre.y + 0.5),
                                                                (centre.z + 0.5),
                                                                ORE_COLOURS[ore].r,
                                                                ORE_COLOURS[ore].g,
                                                                ORE_COLOURS[ore].b,
                                                                0.5f);         // Not sure if 0.0 is solid colour or transparent. I'm tired. Forgive me!
                             }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }

Less incomplete documentation, and more nobody in the community has wanted to document this. Makes sense if you think about how complicated it is.

From what I can gather, your position is most likely wrong. You need to subtract the camera location from the position such that it properly appears in the space. As for the transparency, 1 is opaque, 0 is transparent.

Like this?

    centre = centre - player.getEyePosition();

Do I not also need to apply camera view angle rotation or anything? I was hoping that the level renderer would apply all necessary scaling, translation, and rotation.

No, the camera location. You have access to the camera from the GameRenderer to which you can then grab the position via #getPosition to subtract from the position you want the lines to render.

Those should already be applied for you within the matrix stack. The only thing not transformed in most cases is the translation and that's typically when rendering on screen.

Awesome tips, thanks.

I figured that the camera would be positioned where the player's eyes were :P

 

I am currently using the LevelRenderer that comes with the event. Should I be using the GameRenderer instead, or are they in fact the same thing.
