- None
Here is the guide.
Useful Procedures
Color
Those procedures can get various colors. They can be used on all rendering events.
Data
Those procedures can get game/world data. They can be used on all rendering events.
Others
They are can be used all rendering events.
Render effects
Those procedures is used for rendering. They can be used on the following events only.
- Graphics - Render clouds
- Graphics - Render overlays
- Graphics - Render shapes
- Graphics - Render sky
- Graphics - Render weather
Here is the guide.
Common Mistakes
If you get errors or bugs, try to check the following.
Dimension is not set up
The event trigger "Graphics - Set up dimension" is required to work some event triggers.
Use wrong event triggers or procedures
In order to render objects, you will need to use event triggers and procedures properly. See the above.
Call procedures from non-rendering events
If this example were run, your Minecraft would be crashed. It is not possible to call procedures and run rendering.
Modify game/world data on rendering events
Game/world data modifying should not be run on rendering events. That also includes block/entity/item modifying, NBT setting, etc.
However, it is possible to get and use data of blocks, entities, items, NBT, global variables, etc.
Alpha values can’t be used for fog colors, so you will need to interpolate colors.
outRGB = defaultRGB + (anyRGB - defaultRGB) * starLevel
Thank you for the help Sumeshi0216. Not to keep bugging you but is it possible to make fog slowly fade out instead of a instant off/on? I have a Sandstorm working now that only starts when its raining and it sets a biome fog when it starts raining however when it stops raining theres a pretty agressive change from the fog back to no fog.
Use rain level and interpolate the distance and color
Beautiful Plugin, have been experimenting with it and having a bit of trouble, but what is the number range for Day level? Is it a 0 - 2 or something?
I am essentially trying to get the exact time frame during sunrises and sunsets.
Day Level is the time of day and ranges from 0.0 to 1.0.
At noon (tick time = 6000), the value will be 0.0.
At midnight (tick time = 18000), the value will be 0.5.
Sumeshi, can you explain how to interpolate the distance and color based on rain level like you mentioned above? I have a neat weather system created but I'm hoping to have the fog gradually change rather than just a abrupt color change.
I've tried to do this myself but I'm not grasping the fog portion well.
It is now possible to interpolate the fog color in v1.8.3.
love u soooooo much! I'v been looking for a procedure that allow me to zoom in while aiming for a long time !
its not working for me i import the plugin and it won't work it said missing minversion
Is it possible to deactivate animations like running and head movement from world rendered entities? If not, it would be very useful! Thank you for this awesome plugin! :D
is it possible to render stars in the end but without the sun or moon?
