Hello, 

 

I have a mod that draws simple text on the screen using:

@SubscribeEvent
public void Draw(RenderGameOverlayEvent.Pre event) {
    mc.fontRenderer.drawStringWithShadow("Test", 940, 465, 0xf4cf16);
}

But once my mod is used with LabyMod the text doesnt show up. I was wondering why and if there is a solution / workarround since i really need the mod to just draw text. So i can draw coordinates on the top left of my screen for example (Without using F3)

Minecraft 1.12.2

 

Thannks in advance!

Use RenderGameOverlayEvent.Text.

Doesnt seem to change anything. 

 

Doesnt work in RenderTick Event or other TickEvents. So i assume thatr mc.fontRenderer just doesnt work because of Laby. Is there any other way to draw text on the screen?

That is a bad assumption since that FontRenderer object is used to draw every piece of text in the game. If it was somehow modified to not work then there would be no text in the game at all.

I would assume that this "LabyMod" either cancels the RenderGameOverlayEvent in which case you either want your event to be handled before it is cancelled(either make the priority higher or set receiveCanceled to true) or it replaces the in-game HUD to it's own version that doesn't throw the event in which case go complain to that mod that they are breaking functionality. I assume it would also be possible to render your HUD in a RenderTickEvent but I've never worked with it and don't know what the GL matrix is set to at the time.

The Function itself does not seem to work at all. I tried different events, checked if they executed and they did. Tried using receiveCanceled and playing with the event priority.
