I am trying to make the experience bar change color on an event.

My code works, but the expLevel (e.g 30) appears behind my HUD, not infront of it.

 

How would I go about making my HUD appear behind it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

My code is as follows:

@OnlyIn(Dist.CLIENT)
public class DodgeGui {
	
		private final ResourceLocation bar = new ResourceLocation(Dodge.MODID, "textures/gui/dodgebar.png");
		public final static int width = 182; //182
		private final int height = 5;
		
		public static int j = 0;
	
		@SubscribeEvent
		public void renderOverlay(RenderGameOverlayEvent event) {
			if (event.getType() == RenderGameOverlayEvent.ElementType.TEXT) {
				Minecraft mc = Minecraft.getInstance();
				mc.getTextureManager().bindTexture(bar);
				int scaledHeight = mc.getMainWindow().getScaledHeight() - 32 + 3;
				int scaledWidth = mc.getMainWindow().getScaledWidth() / 2 - 91; //-91
				mc.ingameGUI.blit(scaledWidth, scaledHeight, 0, height, j, height);

	        }
      }			
}

 

Thank you greatly for your time.

First don't use event.getType() == ElementType.TEXT use ElementType.EXPERIENCE. Then use event.setCanceled(true). Then you will have to render the level and the bar.

Thank you for your quick reply @Animefan8888! I am trying to keep experience displayed and render my HUD over the top of it as it is a cooldown meter that is only shown temporarily, is there any way I could adapt your code for this?

Can you show a screenshot of two of what you have/mean? In general you should cancel the original and render your own only when the experience bar shouldn't be rendered to reduce some rendering calls.

Turns out I wasn't reading your previous answer properly, it worked! Is there anyway I can check to see if the player is in creative mode in order to not render the experience bar? Thank you for all your help
