[Solved][1.14.3]Custom GUI

Posted July 15, 20196 yr

I want to make gui that show image and text on it. I found some tutorials how to do it, but they're for previous versions.

I don't have idea how to do it, can somebody help me?

McJty (a developer of many mods, including RFTools) is doing tutorials on 1.14.2 (episode 4), but you have to set up the workspace like he did, which requires watching the previous episodes. You can do it on Eclipse or IntelliJ. I don't know if it works on 1.14.3 though.

Just to add on...As I too used McJty to get a better feel for Custom GUIs...they work. the big difference for is that now in 1.14.3 we use .blitz to 'place' the image foreground and background.

It's not that I want. I want make something that can show blockname at block you're looking at. I understand how to get data about block, but i don't know how to create gui for it.

Some tips:

Modder Support:

Spoiler

1. Do not follow tutorials on YouTube, especially TechnoVision (previously called Loremaster) and HarryTalks, due to their promotion of bad practice and usage of outdated code.

2. Always post your code.

3. Never copy and paste code. You won't learn anything from doing that.

Programming via Eclipse's hotfixes will get you nowhere

5. Learn to use your IDE, especially the debugger.

Support & Bug Reports:

Spoiler

1. Read the EAQ before asking for help. Remember to provide the appropriate log(s).

2. Versions below 1.11 are no longer supported due to their age. Update to a modern version of Minecraft to receive support.

I too am trying to learn how to make custom GUI's. Another person pointed me to this open source mod to use as reference. Using this class as a guide, I've now actually gotten a custom texture to print on screen close to how I want.

https://github.com/Tfarcenim/ClassicBar/blob/1.14.x/src/main/java/tfar/classicbar/overlays/HealthBarRenderer.java

I replaced his "drawTexturedModalRect()" with "GuiUtils.drawTexturedModalRect()". In his ModUtils class, he also has a tool to draw a String on screen, which I believe also exists in "GuiUtils" found in Forge and/or possibly in GlManager. I remember seeing it somewhere. Hope this helps!

Thank you, this example helped.
