TheRPGAdventurer Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 I see a lot of mods making cool guis and dont get me wrong, they dont just edit it pixel by pixel especially the inventory. Do these modders use a program or they just use tool, armor, entity texture makers like photoshop or gimp. Quote
Major Squirrel Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 Could you provide a sample screen of what kind of GUIs you're talking about ? I might be interested in it ! Personally, I just recycle some existing GUIs from Minecraft. For instance, there is the demo_background.png located in the Minecraft assets (textures/gui). It helps me to prototype a canvas for a beginning. Still, I am really curious of how do other developers achieve their GUIs (especially when we are not specialized designers haha). Quote Squirrel ! Squirrel ! Squirrel !

Daeruin Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 (edited) I made a custom inventory GUI using Gimp. I started with the vanilla texture, then selected parts of it and moved them around. Some of it is pixel-by-pixel work. That's how I did the little arrows on my GUI, attached. I expect those four slots at the top of the screen you posted were done pixel by pixel, just like many item and block textures are done. Kind of tedious, but not too bad considering each inventory slot is only 16x16 pixels. Edited February 22, 2018 by Daeruin Image didn't come through Quote
Draco18s Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Also, make sure your texture is 256x256 (you can leave the non-UI parts fully transparent) Quote Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
Adrikikicp Posted October 30, 2022 Posted October 30, 2022 I used the furnace GUI texture to make it. Is really easy Quote
