Posted April 29, 201312 yr I want to be able to render a "ghost" item - essentially just a semi-transparent item's icon - but I can't figure out how to do it. Searched online, of course. Just got a bunch of bug fix reports about a different type of ghost item. Tried to figure out how vanilla does it, and eventually I jerry-rigged this non-functional thingamajig. AETGui x GuiContainer @Override protected void drawGuiContainerBackgroundLayer(float opacity, int x, int y) { ... // Render ghost item if (tileEntity.getMatchingRecipe() != null) { ItemStack item = tileEntity.getMatchingRecipe().getResult(); IItemRenderer customRenderer = MinecraftForgeClient .getItemRenderer(item, INVENTORY); customRenderer.renderItem(INVENTORY, item); } } I get a NPE on customRenderer.renderItem(ItemRenderType, ItemStack). I have no idea what I thought would happen, I just plugged it in to at least try something. So, anybody have any experience with this? If I helped, show me some love and hit that thanks button!
