Posted April 9, 201312 yr I am new to forge and minecraft modding in general but how to render a line of text ontop of blocks similar the ones rendered ontop of player's head in SMP (The translucent Text Box) thingy. Can someone help me with it? (I checked vanila code but not good at it yet so failed to find useful information).
April 9, 201312 yr You can't add it into a block, the one on top of player isn't a block. In other words, The PLAYER isn't a block, it's an entity. You must add custom NBT tags or whatever the heck you want to the Entity/Block. I'm not sure if you can do it for a block or not.

The thing is just, I would rather use the TileEntitySpecialRenderer in combination with a TileEntity. If you have that, look at the RenderPlayer class (especially the renderStats() method) Don't ask for support per PM!

This is not how learning works.
April 13, 201312 yr Author Thanks, and I know the difference between block and entity but the translucent block is just a rendering, so it shouldn't be affected where ever it was rendered, checking code now, thank you for pointing out RenderPlayer
