Detecting X-Ray resourcepacks

[FuzeIII]

Hey !

 

I'm looking for a way to find out if the player is using an x-ray resourcepack. I've tried to retrieve stone texture in order to check whether it has transparency in it, but it didn't work.

 

Any idea ?

AH HAHAHAHA

 

HEHEHE

 

Ha ha ha heeee..... oooh boy.

 

This is going to be tough as balls as it has to be done client side and anything done client side has to be assumed to be inherently insecure.  That is: someone clever enough can decompile your mod, strip out the checking code (or make it always return, "Yep! No X-Ray!") and recompile it and you would never know.

 

That said, the only way I know how to get access to the pixel data of a given texture would be the method I talk about over here.  You'd just have to rewrite some of the functions and then do Dirty Tricks as part of the processing (that is: violate the implied agreement that the texture loading code is there to load textures and not cause side effects, though no one will ever check to see that that is true).  You'd still have to register a new texture icon to get the code to execute, but it could report back to Somewhere Else its findings.
