GUI Rendering

PulseLib no longer exposes a PLibHelper.renderModelInGui helper. GUI item rendering goes through PItemRenderer.

When Minecraft renders a PulseLib item with ItemDisplayContext.GUI, PItemRenderer:

  • extracts the item render state through PItemRenderState;
  • submits posed meshes to PRenderQueue.RenderStage.GUI;
  • flushes the GUI stage immediately through the supplied SubmitNodeCollector.

That means normal animated items do not need separate GUI drawing code. Use the same item renderer and model data described on PulseLib Items.

Direct model drawing

For advanced screens that are not item rendering, draw the baked model bones directly with PBakedBone.instantDraw:

PBakedModel model = modelData.getModel();
if (model != null) {
    poseStack.pushPose();
    poseStack.translate(x, y, 0);
    poseStack.scale(scale, scale, scale);

    for (PBakedBone bone : model.bones()) {
        bone.instantDraw(
                poseStack,
                modelData,
                manager.getControllers().values(),
                PRenderTypes.RenderTypeProvider::trianglesGui,
                0xFFFFFFFF,
                LightTexture.FULL_BRIGHT,
                OverlayTexture.NO_OVERLAY,
                partialTick);
    }

    poseStack.popPose();
}
