Coloring blocks.

[tuskiomi]

hello forge modders!

I have dug all around in the forge leaf class to find how to color block sprites like minecraft does to leaves.

in the leaves class i have dug up

this:

    public Icon getBlockTextureFromSideAndMetadata(int par1, int par2)
    {
        return (par2 & 3) == 1 ? this.iconArray[this.field_94394_cP][1] : ((par2 & 3) == 3 ? this.iconArray[this.field_94394_cP][3] : this.iconArray[this.field_94394_cP][0]);
    }

I honestly have no clue what ANY of this does (I mean what the heck is field_94394_cP?). could someone please assist me and tell me what this means?

 

edit:

iconarray and field_94394_cP are formatted like so:

private int field_94394_cP;

private Icon[][] iconArray = new Icon[2][];

field_94394_cP is just a not-deobfuscated class variable.

 

In this case it is an array index.  If you're looking at leaves, I believe that field holds a reference to whether or not Minecraft is in fancy rendering (transparent leaves) or fast rendering (opaque leaves).

	public int colorMultiplier(IBlockAccess par1IBlockAccess, int par2, int par3, int par4)
    {
        return 16777215;  //change this
    }

Oh do i see what i think?

so if i am correct;

i pick a hex color code and translate it to B10.

the par1, par2 and, par3  are coords.

can i apply this to ANY block?

Yes, its the decimal representation of a hexadecimal RRGGBB value.

par1/2/3 are the x/y/z coords of the specific block

And yes, you can use this function on any block you create (or base class edit existing blocks).
