How do I flip an entity upside down through RenderLivingEvent? Right now it doesn't do anything when the entities have my potion effect.

 

Here is my code :

@SubscribeEvent
public void renderLiving(RenderLivingEvent.Post event){
	if(event.entity.getActivePotionEffect(MagiCraft.flipped) != null){
		GL11.glPushMatrix();
		GL11.glRotated(180, 0, 0, 1);
		GL11.glPopMatrix();
	}
}

 

Yes I have registered it and it is getting called.

 

Thanks!

Well when I remove that, all entities are flipped. What exactly does push/pop matrix do?

 

2) I changed it to Pre

So how do I properly use them to do what I want?

Before it renders:

push the state, change the state

After it renders:

restore the state

Do I use both the RenderLivingEvent.Pre and Post events?

Do I use both the RenderLivingEvent.Pre and Post events?

 

Uh, let me check.

 

Before it renders:

push the state, change the state

After it renders:

restore the state

 

Pretty sure that "Before" and "After" are two different phases.

 

But you know what, do it in only one and see how that works out for you.  Oh wait, you did.

Ok I did that, however the only entity that renders while my potion effect is active is the player. Any of the other entities are not affected. I checked with LivingUpdateEvent that the potion effect was registering, and LivingUpdate said that they had my potion effect active. For some reason it just isn't registering on the client. How do I fix this?

 

Code:

@SubscribeEvent
public void renderLiving(RenderLivingEvent.Pre event){
	if(event.entity.getActivePotionEffect(MagiCraft.flipped) != null){
		GL11.glPushMatrix();
		GL11.glRotatef(180.0f, 0, 0, 1.0f);
		GL11.glTranslated(0, event.entity.height/2 + 0.1f, 0);
	}
}

@SubscribeEvent
public void renderLiving(RenderLivingEvent.Post event){
	if(event.entity.getActivePotionEffect(MagiCraft.flipped) != null){
		GL11.glPopMatrix();
	}
}

Could I just have an

isFlipped

property in the IExtendedEntityProperties that is set to true when the entity has the potion and false when is doesn't? Then the client would get the

isFlipped

property and determine whether or not to flip it.

Oh ok
