[Mod Support Request] - Pokecube #100

Open Thutmose opened 2 years ago

Thutmose commented 2 years ago

Pokecube has had icons for mobs since 2013 or so, but has not actually had them working on Xaeros minimap.

I have just finished some re-factoring of the mod's registration, and I figured I would finally get around to supporting Xaeros Minimap, but then I found this project, so I figured I would first open an issue here.

I already have icons for each mob for use in game: https://github.com/Pokecube-Development/Pokecube-Issues-and-Wiki/tree/1.18.2/src/generated/resources/assets/pokecube_mobs/textures/entity_icon/pokemob

as well as higher resolution icons here: pokemob.zip

The ones ingame are re-sized versions of those, scaled to 32x32 px

This repository is for mods that don't have icon support built in. It'd be great if you just included the resources in your mod. That way you can even use (a) custom variant ID method(s), if the default isn't good enough for some cases. The 32x32 icons would have to be put inside 64x64 images though, without scaling them up (with empty space around them).

I can make the appropriate adjustments to the textures if needed, a simple python script could be used to add empty space around them.

I was planning on putting these in a separate resourcepack rather than the main mod, as adding another few thousand textures and json files would just increase the mod footprint for those who do not have xaeros minimap. As such I figured I would make a request issue here, to add it to this pack, rather than making my own.

I see. It's up to you.
