Standalone [1.3] tModLoader - A Modding API

WORKED! thanks budy, buuuut... when the mod is with the buff, he turns invisible

That could have multiple causes. Try this and see if it works:

public override bool PreDraw(NPC npc, SpriteBatch spriteBatch, Color drawColor)
        {     
            if(npc.hasBuff(mod.BuffType("Frost")) != -1)
            {
                Vector2 drawPos = new Vector2(npc.position.X,npc.position.Y);
                spriteBatch.Draw(mod.GetTexture("Extras/Frozen"), drawPos, null, Color.White, 0f, new Vector2(28f, 28f), 1f, SpriteEffects.None, 0f);
                return false;
            }
            return true;     
        }

If you really want to code a Boss, you've got 2 options (imo):
Learn to code || look through the source of Terraria and get your answer from there.

 

[BlueWaterMelon]

how would i look in source of Terraria

Download IlSpy binaries, drag and drop Terraria.exe in and you're good to Go.

k thanks
[doublepost=1459097849,1459097418][/doublepost]wait Terraria.exe? where would i find that, or is it just terraria
[doublepost=1459098230][/doublepost]nevermind i found it, i found BossEoC and what now
[doublepost=1459098398][/doublepost]it just says

// Terraria.GameContent.UI.EmoteID
public const int BossEoC = 39;

 

[BlueWaterMelon]

i cant find anything help!

Is there a way to increase the speed of the animation when using public override DrawAnimation GetAnimation() for item animations?

 

[BlueWaterMelon]

 

[Eldrazi]

There has been a conversation about this not too long ago. Try looking back a few pages.

Look in NPC.cs for the setdefaults of the NPC you are interested in. You'll see the type and aistyle for that NPC. Then, look for aistyle == (number here) and you should find the ai code for that ai style. Within that block of code there may be if statements to further refine the aistyle due to the type (aka NPCid) of the NPC. You'll need to look through it and attempt to understand the code.

Yeah, the first parameter of the function you're returning determines the animation Speed.

 

[DivermanSam]

Yeah, the first parameter of the function you're returning determines the animation Speed.

Maybe I'm being misled by this example then? I figured the return new was the only one I could use.

Or I guess it would be more appropriate to say, I thought the 30 was the frame height and the 4 was the total frames. So I don't see where I'm able to influence the speed from this example.

public override DrawAnimation GetAnimation()
        {
            return new DrawAnimationVertical(30, 4);
        }

public override DrawAnimation GetAnimation()
        {
            return new DrawAnimationVertical(30, 4);
        }

I believe the second parameter automatically defines the frame height of each frame by dividing the actual texture height by the amount of frames.

Try this:

public override bool PreDraw(NPC npc, SpriteBatch spriteBatch, Color drawColor)
        {      
            if(npc.hasBuff(mod.BuffType("Frost")) != -1)
            {
                Vector2 drawPos = new Vector2(npc.position.X,npc.position.Y);
                spriteBatch.Draw(mod.GetTexture("Extras/Frozen"), drawPos, null, default(Color), 0f, drawPos, npc.scale * 2 , SpriteEffects.None, 0f);
                return false;
            }
            return true;      
        }

Untested, should (highly) theoretically work. If default(Color) gives an error, just change it to Color.white and that should work.

Still invisible

Still invisible

Then I think something's wrong with your texture, although at this point your guess is as good as mine.

It needs to be non-transparent?

 

[Kazzymodus]

It needs to be non-transparent?

No, that shouldn't be an issue, unless of course it's fully transparent, in which case, yes.

Is your texture a completely new sprite of the NPC or just an overlay/effect?

Is an overlay.

 

[Kazzymodus]

Is an overlay.

Ah, in that case you want to replace return false; by return true; .

EDIT: Actually, you can just remove it (only the first one).
