[1.9] Adding numbers/bars/icons to item inventory icon.

[Notunknown]

I want to add additional information to the icon of an item - such as an electric bow which has a durability bar, energy bar (in blue) and a number showing the number of arrows left in the players inventory (which is colored if the next arrow used is a potion effect, or glows if the next arrow used is a glowing arrow).

 

That is an extreme example, but demonstrates what I am after. How can I do this?

Item#showDurabilityBar

Item#getDurabilityForDisplay

Item#isDamageable

I will add that if you're wanting the second blue durability bar, EnderIO's Source is available for download on GitHub.

Item#showDurabilityBar

Item#getDurabilityForDisplay

Item#isDamageable

 

I know about those - but that is for the green durability bar. This is about adding a second durability bar above this. And some numbers above that, which are colored depending on non-tool specific information.

EnderIO does simlar things (p455w0rd already said), but it uses ASM.

So, there's no way (besides ASMing

RenderItem.renderItemOverlayIntoGUI

) to do this.

 

@Forge: why forge hasn't added any hooks for this?

Well, EnderIO is for 1.7.10. That is two major versions (and an overhaul of rendering) ago.

EnderIO has an experimental 1.8.9 version, the source of which is available on GitHub.

 

I think the proper way to do this is with a custom

IModel

and

ItemOverrideList

, like Forge's

ModelDynBucket

.

 

For a limited number of variants (e.g. a single bar with 10 steps), you can do what RFTools does: manually create the textures and then use them with standard models.

 

Edit: Added a missing word.

The bar is the easy part (relatively), what about numbers (like an arrow counter on a bow)?

You'll need an

IModel

and

ItemOverrideList

as I said in my previous post. Probably an

ICustomModelLoader

as well.

 

You'll also need a texture for each digit so you can generate the

BakedQuad

s for the number.

 

I don't know that much about the rendering system, so I can't help you much more than this.

Hmm. I was hoping that there would be a way around doing this, at least when it comes to adding extra bars/numbers.
