How would I go about coding a custom cape?

ZeldaCorporation · February 18, 2013

I have a mod but would like to make a cape for dev team and testers,and then a seperate one for donaters but dont have a single clue as to how.I would also like to know the demensions for the cape texture and maybe even a template .png

endershadow · February 18, 2013

I would like to know how to make a cape as well. I know the Industrial Craft 2 modders have an IC2 cape

SenpaiSubaraki · February 18, 2013

As far as altering the url for capes, no methods have really been found.

I've found a mod on the forums, brand new one, that renders capes. you could ask them.

I guess it was called rpg inventory or something. the capes ar a work in progress though.

http://jd.minecraftforge.net/net/minecraft/entity/player/EntityPlayer.html#playerCloakUrl

endershadow · February 23, 2013

but what would we put there? the image location? and it still doesn't tell us the dimensions of the cape.

ZeldaCorporation · February 26, 2013

and even how do we tell who gets the cape and what do we put,because just that one line will not suffice

endershadow · February 26, 2013

and even how do we tell who gets the cape and what do we put,because just that one line will not suffice

you could use an if statement for the player's username. I did this

if(player.username == "USERNAME_ ONE" || player.username == "USERNAME_TWO" || player.username == "USERNAME_THREE")
	{
		player.playerCloakUrl = "";
	}

but I have no clue what the url should be.

player.username == "USERNAME_ ONE"

this is not how strings should be compared! http://stackoverflow.com/questions/513832/how-do-i-compare-strings-in-java

I believe it's just URL, so you put there something like "http://www.anirudh.net/courses/cse585/project2/results_runs/images/lenna.gif" (e.g. link to a picture on imageshack).

I did not know that mnm but for that I give you a thank you

endershadow · February 26, 2013

yes, thank you

awsome,now the only question left is what is the pixel size??? (ex: blocks are 16x16)

Could someone just post what it would look like in this code:

Hmm I have ic2's source code so I'll look around and see if I can find it

ZeldaCorporation · March 1, 2013

k thanks,i have the api but thats it and i didnt see it in there

endershadow · March 1, 2013

I'd like to see how IC2 did it as well

ZeldaCorporation · March 2, 2013

Anyone have any progress on figuring it out??

Jadar · March 7, 2013

Just so you guys know, Mojang frowns on Capes mods.. You need to download the cape after you set the URL.

minecraftInstance.renderEngine.obtainImageData(URL, *IMAGE BUFFER*);

Oh endershadow, I like your avatar..

endershadow · March 7, 2013

Oh endershadow, I like your avatar..

I take it you like code lyoko?

EDIT: where is minecraftInstance?

Jadar · March 7, 2013

haha yeah.. minecraftInstance is the current minecraft instance. Minecraft.getMinecraft();

endershadow · March 7, 2013

I'm actually making a mod for minecraft based on code lyoko. and what's the buffer?

Jadar · March 7, 2013

Oh! I was gonna do that hahaha can i help? The buffer is an image buffer. you can just use the minecraft ImageBufferDownload class. just pass in new ImageBufferDownload().

endershadow · March 7, 2013

one last question, where do I put the code? do I put it in the client proxy. ya, you can help. depends on what you'd be able to help with though.

Jadar · March 7, 2013

Well, a tick handler.. I don't know, how far are you? PM me.

Jadar · March 9, 2013

I made an API for your Developer cape needs. It uses a txt file that has all the usernames you need in it. The txt file is hosted on a server like dropbox. The capes are also hosted there, and all the groups and urls are given in the txt file. Don't worry if that sounds complicated, a sample is given on the GitHub.
