[1.7.2] Player Overlay like Creeper when Powered

[Eastonium]

I really want to be able to overlay the player just like the creeper is when it is powered. Does anyone know how to do this?

[chimera27]

There are a few different methods of doing it depending on when it should happen. When do you want the player to have the effect?

net.minecraft.client.renderer.entity.RenderCreeper, that should be all you need to know

[Eastonium]

It would be triggered when you're wearing a certain piece of armor. I have a ServerTickHandler and ClientTickHandler if that helps.

The easiest way to do this IMO would be to make a custom armor renderer (you can find out how to do that here: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/2001807-164how-to-code-custom-3d-armor-models-tutorial-by-senpaisubaraki/)

 

Just make a model of how you want the texture to overlay over the player, and use (a slightly modified) version of that texture with it. That tutorial should have everything you need.

I just want a simple expanded player model. basically like the armor, but a tiny bit more offset. I've tried to look at the RenderCreeper file, but that doesn't help me how to set it up.

[Eastonium]

So I used the tutorial you sent me to make the overlay, but now I need to know how to make it like the creeper's in that I want it to be "glowing" and moving and transparent. how can I accomplish this?
