Does anyone know how to make animated fluid, in this case water and lava, in a gui? Im a noob at this sort of stuff... Thanks in advance

That linked, you probably want 1st option (.pngs) You can use vanilla water images to animate.

ok but I don't get where to put the update screen, my gui is just the simple draw foreground ect.

If you want to just draw the animating lava texture (like how it is in the world), you don't need to do something that complicated.

 

You'll want to:

 

• Bind the blocks texture (

  TextureMap.locationBlocksTexture

  , IIRC)
  

• Get the

  TextureAtlasSprite

  for the fluid from the texture map
  

• Use the

  getInterpolatedU

  and

  getInterpolatedV

  methods to get the U and V coords to use when you draw the texture onto the screen
  

 

This is how I did it for my GUI fluid indicator, but it's for 1.8.9 so yours (mostly just the

drawFluidQuad

method) will be a bit different:

Yup, it's different and, as a noob with updating/downgrading, i've only figured how to convert one bit of code. Sorry about my noobishness

 

Also - what's lava and water's atlas name ? Thanks

minecraft:lava_still

and

minecraft:water_still

, IIRC

Ok, here is what i've done so far, I have no idea how to fix the draw fluid quad section ;l

Thanks

I'm sorry guys, but this is too complicated, I honestly don't have a clue, I kinda understand the switching between coords, but where do I put gui updatescreen?

OK, Basically, I have all the drawing done, all I want is to get the textures source from the animated texture. Look at my gui near the coolant bit.
