[1.8] Rendering a players' skin to GuiMainMenu

[broutwurscht]

Hi everyone,

i am currently working on a custom main menu. I hooked into the GuiOpenEvent to display my modded version of the gui and it is working so far.

After i finished the basics, I wanted to have a look at rendering the U/V maps of the current users' skin.

I tried to use the Method

public static void drawEntityOnScreen(int p_147046_0_, int p_147046_1_, int p_147046_2_, float p_147046_3_, float p_147046_4_, EntityLivingBase p_147046_5_) [...]

provided by

GuiInventory.class

which requires an EntityLivingBase-object as parameter.

I tried passing the field

Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer

to the method, but it results in a NPE.

I searched for a solution on the forums but I can't find working code for my project.

I figured out that rendering an Entity would require a World object.

That's why i tried to create a FakePlayer, but the Constructor requires a world as well.

 

So finally my questions are:

1) Could i create a "virtual" world, if yes, how?

...or can i simply create an entity that doesn't need a world?

 

Thank you in advance,

broutwurscht

 

If you should have problems understanding my english, feel free to ask me what i tried to say

Isin't there EntityPlayer ? Decompile and check classes of NEI, that might help...
