[Mod] Characters Hand [1.0] [hand]

[BlockMen]

Hello everyone,

this small mod is more prove of concept than something else. It actually grabs the hand part of the player texture and uses it for the hand.



Notice: This only works for singleplayer, because you cant change the hand for each player...

Download Version 1.0

Works with Minetest 0.4.7 and newer

If only this would work with the player textures mod.

Nice!

Have you tried seeing if it does not?

[TenPlus1]

the Better HUD mod does the same thing ?!?!

btw, good rendering
i lag when:
the textures are dummies
the render distance is 10 blocks

No, the Better Hud mod uses an static image that wouldnt change if the players texture is changed.

What keeps you from doing it for each player? Isn't there a function that is called when a player joins a game?

EDIT: oh, you register it as an item. I see why now.

very very nice. I will use

[idea]
1. Mod is installed
2. player_*.png textures are processed
3. Creating new player_hand_UserName.png for each one
how about that?
EDIT: Doesnt work.... i thought it would work like the multi-skins, but no...

[Johnyknowhow]

how do i get latest builds?
I WANT MINETEST+ NEWEST VERSION!!!!!!!!!!!!


great, it doesn't do ANYTHING.
It just shows my regular hand,
RRRRAAAAAAGGGGGEEEEE!!!!



EDIT: it works now for 0.4.8!
Wooooo!

but can you make it support PilzAdam's Different textures for Players mod?

Somehow we could use it with Visible wielded items and uskinsdb ?

Here's my version of your mod code:

Code: Select all

minetest.after(0, function()
	minetest.override_item("", {
		wield_image = "wield_dummy.png^[combine:16x16:2,2=wield_dummy.png:-52,-23=character.png^[transformfy",
		wield_scale = {x=1.8,y=1,z=2.8},
	})
end)
