I have a mod called immortality that add a potion that keeps the player's health from dropping below 20%. The mod itself works just fine, but I want to add an overlay effect to the health bar to show the player how low their health can go, specifically by covering 20% of the health bar (usually 2 hearts) in custom hearts, kinda like how poison turns your hearts green. I have some rendering code, but its not rendering anything.

 

Here's the event handler Im using, I've confirmed it works:

 	private static Minecraft mc = Minecraft.getMinecraft();
	private static final ImmortalityBarRenderer renderer = new ImmortalityBarRenderer(mc);
    
    @SubscribeEvent//render immortal hearts over player hearts
	public void onDrawBar(RenderGameOverlayEvent.Post event)
	{
		EntityPlayerSP entityPlayerSP = Minecraft.getMinecraft().player;
		
		if (entityPlayerSP == null) return;
		
		if(event.getType() == ElementType.HEALTH)
		{
			renderer.renderStatusBar(event.getResolution().getScaledWidth(), event.getResolution().getScaledHeight());
		}
	}

 

And here is my renderer class, I have confirmed that renderStatusBar is getting called, which means its something in my render code:

	public class ImmortalityBarRenderer extends Gui
    {
		private static final ResourceLocation overlay = new ResourceLocation(Immortality.MODID +":textures/gui/immortal_heart.png");
	
		private Minecraft mc;
		

		public ImmortalityBarRenderer(Minecraft mc) 
		{
			this.mc = mc;
		}
		
		

		public void renderStatusBar(int screenWidth, int screenHeight)
		{
			
			World world = mc.world;
			EntityPlayer player = mc.player;
			final int barHeight = 9;
			final int barWidth = (int) (9*((Math.ceil(player.getMaxHealth()/5))/2));
			final int expBarSpace = 3;
			
			//push matrix
			GL11.glPushAttrib(GL11.GL_ALL_ATTRIB_BITS);
		    GL11.glPushMatrix();
		    
			    GL11.glColor4f(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F);
			    mc.renderEngine.bindTexture(overlay);
			    
			    final int vanillaExpLeftX = screenWidth / 2 - 91; // leftmost edge of the experience bar
			    final int vanillaExpTopY = screenHeight - 32 + 3;  // top of the experience bar
			    
			    GL11.glTranslatef(vanillaExpLeftX, vanillaExpTopY - expBarSpace - barHeight, 0);
			    
			    drawTexturedModalRect(0, 0, 0, 0, barWidth, barHeight);
		    
		    GL11.glPopAttrib();
		    GL11.glPopMatrix();
		}
    }

 

I know next to nothing about rendering on the HUD, I've just been replicating examples I've seen. If I've done something obviously wrong, please point it out so I don't do it again.

Have you confirmed that your render code is executing? Is the event being called? Is the event ever have the exact fields (Does the Post event ever fire with ElementType.HEALTH)?

As I said in my post, I have confirmed the event is firing, and that the render code is being called.

My bad. Try removing your translate call.

Removing the gl11.gltranslatef call did not seem to fix the issue.

Instead do mc.getTextureManager().bindTexture(...)

That makes sense, always better to use a getter instead of the field. Regardless, it did not fix the issue.

Switch your barWidth to a constant.

That did not help either. As a side note, I need to be able to vary the amount of hearts the bar covers since the effect is based on a percentage of your health, is there a better way to do that?

What you are doing seems appropriate.

Can you post your image you are trying to render. And have you refreshed your workspace since you added it.

Ok, progress! Im now seeing 6 dark red rectangles on the oposite side of the HUD from the health bar, that twitch occasionally.

 

code used:

		public void renderStatusBar(int screenWidth, int screenHeight)
		{
			//System.out.println("called");
			World world = mc.world;
			EntityPlayer player = mc.player;
			final int barHeight = 9;
			//final int barWidth = (int) (9*((Math.ceil(player.getMaxHealth()/5))/2));
			final int barWidth = 18;
			final int expBarSpace = 3;

		    mc.getTextureManager().bindTexture(overlay);
		    final int vanillaExpLeftX = screenWidth / 2 - 91; // leftmost edge of the experience bar
		    final int vanillaExpTopY = screenHeight - 32 + 3;  // top of the experience bar
		    
		    //GL11.glTranslatef(vanillaExpLeftX, vanillaExpTopY - expBarSpace - barHeight, 0);
		    
		    //drawTexturedModalRect(0, 0, 0, 0, barWidth, barHeight);
		    this.drawModalRectWithCustomSizedTexture(0, 0, 0, 0, 9, 9, 9, 9);
		}

 

I should clarify that this is still not the desired effect, but at least its rendering now.

 

EDIT:

I just noticed the icons rendering at the top of the screen! Now i just gotta translate them to the right spot. And get rid of those artifacts on the HUD.

clarification.

Ah, that makes a lot of sense. I figured I would have to clean up after myself. Also, whats the best way to make my hearts jiggle when the player is on low health, along with the vanilla ones?

 

EDIT: regarding translation, thats what I meant, yeah.

EDIT2: rebinding the icon textures fixed the hunger bar.

Edited August 8, 20196 yr by theishiopian

Wow, none of these fields are labeled very well at all. 

Ok, it looks like the heart shaking is random, I might want to just cancel the health bar rendering and render my own. If anyone has a better idea, I'm all ears. Thank you for the help so far, I've learned a lot about HUD rendering.
