Feature

Using reusable textures for mods instead of hardcoded ones.
It's data-driven.
So, you can modify the textures generated with the resource pack.
Also, add compatibility to any mod with any resource packs.

How to support a mod by yourself?

• You need a tool that can show you the sizes of elements you need on the image.
• You can reload the resource to see the changes.
• I will explain the built-in jsons here.

• https://github.com/SettingDust/DynamicTextures/blob/main/mod/src/main/generated/assets/dynamic-textures/dynamic_texture/modifier/spell_engine/spell_binding.json

  • modId

    • Loading this texture modifier when the mod is loaded.
    • Texture modifier is for modify the target texture for generating the texture dynamically. It's the main part of this mod.

  • size

    • Define the size of the texture. Isn't required when specified targetTexture.
    • When there isn't targetTexture. It will generate a texture with only transparent pixels.

  • targetTexture

    • The path for generated texture. Isn't required when specified size.
    • We need the original texture to find out what modifiers we need.
    • Open the jar of mod and find out the png file path is spell_engine-0.12.4_1.20.1.jar!\assets\spell_engine\textures\gui\spell_binding.png
    • 
    • So we know the texture's resource location is spell_engine:gui/spell_binding. It's the location of the targetTexture we need.

  • modifiers

    • An array of modifiers that will apply to the raw texture.

    • 1. dynamic-textures:remove_border

      • Remove border from the texture
      • The values here removed the border of the gui background.
      • rect
        • The target rect you need at the texture.
        • The value here means we selected the gui background.
      • border
        • An object that holds two sizes that confirms the size of the borders.
        • first
          • The size of the top and left border. That is, the distance between the inner edge of the frame and the left and top edges.
        • second
          • The size of the bottom and right border. That is, the distance between the inner edge of the frame and the right and bottom edges.

    • 2. dynamic-textures:remove_color

      • Remove specific color from specific rect.
      • The values here removed background color from the gui.
      • color
        • A ARGB color.
        • ffc6c6c6 is the background color of gui

    • 3. dynamic-textures:copy_rect

      • Copy a rect on source texture onto specific rect.
      • sourceTexture
        • A resource location of texture
        • dynamic-textures:dynamic_texture/defined/inventory/bottom is an defined texture that will generate runtime for matching the resource pack. You can add your own defined texture.
      • fromRect It's all content from source texture by default. So, emit here.
      • targetRect
        • The copy target
        • The values here are targeting the bottom part of the gui that contains the player inventory.

    • 4. dynamic-textures:remove_rect

      • Remove target rect from current texture
      • rect The values here removed the left slot on the top part of the gui

    • 5. dynamic-textures:remove_border

      • The values here removed the border of the right slot on the gui

    • 6. dynamic-textures:remove_color

      • The values here removed the background of the right slot.

    • 7. dynamic-textures:overlay

      • A bit complex. It's blending the result of sourceTextures with current texture
      • The values here make the current texture blend with the defined abreast slots
      • onExisting Only blend the pixel alpha not 0 when true. Default is false
      • invert
        • If false, source texture on current texture. If true, current texture on source texture. Default is false.
        • For display the icon in the slot. It's true here.
      • sourceTextures An array of textures to blend. Applying by order. The properties are as same as the root object.

    • 8. dynamic-textures:copy_rect

      • Replace the enchanting elements background of the gui on the texture

    • 9. dynamic-textures:overlay

      • The values applied the default background of the enchanting elements on the right of the gui in the texture

    • 10. dynamic-textures:copy_rect

      • Replace the statuses on the texture

    • 11. dynamic-textures:overlay

      • Blend the inventory top background with current texture
      • sourceTextures.modifiers
        • dynamic-textures:copy_nine_patch
          • Copy the source texture with nine patch to avoid stretch.
          • sourceRect default is the whole texture.
          • repeat default is false.
