I wanted to have a different kind of button with different states and different images as the texture depending on the state. So, I decided to extend GuiButtonImage() and create class that just checks and sets the state and manages the texture. It is kind of unnecessary but I am going to use the same button with the same textures over and over again so decides to make the class. Also, I think I might have to override drawButton() anyways to update the textures on my button depending on the state.

 

Problems:

1) Texture does not load properly.

My Button class-

package com.spacejet.quantivity.gui.buttons;

import com.spacejet.quantivity.util.Reference;

import net.minecraft.client.gui.GuiButtonImage;
import net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation;

public class ActiveDeactiveButton extends GuiButtonImage
{
    private static int state;
    private static final ResourceLocation TEXTURE = new ResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + GetTextureLocationOnState(state));
    
    public ActiveDeactiveButton(int buttonID, int xPos, int yPos, int width, int height, int xTexStart, int yTexStart, int yDiffText, int state) 
    {
        super(buttonID, xPos, yPos, width, height, xTexStart, yTexStart, yDiffText, TEXTURE);
        ActiveDeactiveButton.state = state;
    }

    private static String GetTextureLocationOnState(int i) 
    {
        switch(i)
        {
            case 0:
                return ":textures/gui/buttons/active_deactive_redstone_disabled.png";
                
            case 1:
                return ":textures/gui/buttons/active_deactive_redstone_on.png";
                
            case 2:
                return ":textures/gui/buttons/active_deactive_redstone_off.png";
                
            default:
                return ":textures/gui/buttons/active_deactive_button_disabled.png";
        }
    } 
}
 

My Gui Class-

Spoiler

package com.spacejet.quantivity.gui;

import java.io.IOException;

import com.spacejet.quantivity.container.ContainerEnergyAccumulator;
import com.spacejet.quantivity.gui.buttons.ActiveDeactiveButton;
import com.spacejet.quantivity.tileentity.TileEntityEnergyAccumulator;
import com.spacejet.quantivity.util.Reference;

import net.minecraft.client.gui.GuiButton;
import net.minecraft.client.gui.inventory.GuiContainer;
import net.minecraft.client.renderer.GlStateManager;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.InventoryPlayer;
import net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation;

public class GuiEnergyAccumulator extends GuiContainer 
{    
    private int state;
    
    private static final ResourceLocation GUI_TEXTURE = new ResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + ":textures/gui/energy_accumulator.png");
    private final TileEntityEnergyAccumulator tileEntity;
    
    public GuiEnergyAccumulator(InventoryPlayer player, TileEntityEnergyAccumulator tileEntity) 
    {
        super(new ContainerEnergyAccumulator(player, tileEntity));
        this.tileEntity = tileEntity;
    }
    
    @Override
    public void initGui() 
    {
        super.initGui();
        this.buttonList.add(new ActiveDeactiveButton(0, 200, 200, 16, 16, 200, 200, 0, state));
    }
    
    @Override
    protected void actionPerformed(GuiButton button) throws IOException 
    {
        if(button.id == 0)
         {
            System.out.println("My Button is Clicked!");
            
            if(state < 2)
                state++;
            else if (state == 2)
                state = 0;
            
            System.out.println(state);
         }
    }
    
    @Override
    protected void drawGuiContainerForegroundLayer(int mouseX, int mouseY) 
    {
        String tileName = this.tileEntity.getDisplayName().getUnformattedText();
        this.fontRenderer.drawString(tileName, (this.xSize / 2 - this.fontRenderer.getStringWidth(tileName) / 2), 8, 4210752);
    }

    @Override
    protected void drawGuiContainerBackgroundLayer(float partialTicks, int mouseX, int mouseY) 
    {
        GlStateManager.color(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
        this.mc.getTextureManager().bindTexture(GUI_TEXTURE);
        this.drawTexturedModalRect(this.guiLeft, this.guiTop, 0, 0, this.xSize, this.ySize);
    }

}
 

The image does not fit in the button - only a part of it or none is visible on the button.

 

2) I am not changing the texture based on state yet but is there any way to do that without overriding drawButton()??

 

Also, my background is not getting the dark fog effect even though I have 

GlStateManager.color(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);

in

@Override
protected void drawGuiContainerBackgroundLayer(float partialTicks, int mouseX, int mouseY) 
{
    GlStateManager.color(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
    this.mc.getTextureManager().bindTexture(GUI_TEXTURE);
    this.drawTexturedModalRect(this.guiLeft, this.guiTop, 0, 0, this.xSize, this.ySize);
}

Any ideas why?

 

Textures: (Button textures are 16 x 16)

 

Gui:

The circled thing is the button. It is not positioned, but as you can see, the texture is not fitting the button...

 

Any help is greatly appreciated!

As you can see yourself these are static fields, meaning they are the same for all your buttons. Why are you setting a static field to a thing passed in a constructor? And that doesn't even matter because by the time your resourcelocation resolver code gets executed state is guaranteed to be 0. How well do you know java?

drawTexturedModalRect expects a 256x256 texture, not a 16x16. You can use the overload which takes uv coordinates instead. Of course you would need to override GuiButton#drawButton for that to work.

I don't think so. What's the problem though?

How are these two things connected?

There is a GuiScreen#drawDefaultBackground method which makes the background darker. You are not calling it.

Don’t use (modid+”:”+path)! Use the overload that accepts a resource domain and a path (modid, path)

? oops... did not pay attention to that...

No problem, just asking

I did also try using a 256 by 256 image, but that did not work either. But I'll just override drawButton()..

Oh. I thought this was being called in the drawContainerBackhround so it was the thing... nice to know!

I considered doing that as it seemed like the better way to get the resource location. Will change that.

 

Thanks!
