Item Glow Mask Library

This simple library mod allows modders to add custom item and armor glow textures to the items they wanna add without all the hustle. Most modded items rely on adding new player layers and item sprite layers in order to add glow masks, which isn't exactly efficient. This mod edits TextureAssets. GlowMask and Item.glowMask to allow the addition of modded glow textures. This also means that it uses the VANILLA glow mask rendering code for both consistency and compatibility. How to use? In your build.txt file, add this mod to the modReferences list: displayName = Your Mod author = Your Name version = 0. 1 modReferences = GlowMask In your Mod.cs file, add this instruction to the Load() function: public class YourMod : Mod { public override void Load() { GlowMask. GlowMask. RegisterGlowMasks(this); } } The rest is just adding "_Glow" textures for your items just like you would with projectiles: YourItemSprite.png YourItemSprite_Glow.png For armor, you just have to add "_Glow" to the end of the armor's sprite name: YourArmorSprite_Head.png YourArmorSprite_Head_Glow.png YourArmorSprite_Body.png YourArmorSprite_Body_Glow.png YourArmorSprite_Legs.png YourArmorSprite_Legs_Glow.png If you want to override the armor's glow mask color, you can do this: public class YourArmorItem : ModItem { public override void SetDefaults() { //This only works here! It crashes elsewhere! GlowMask. GlowMask. OverrideArmorGlowColor(this, whateverColorYouWant); } } Everything else is handled AUTOMATICALLY, you don't need to do anything. Known issues: Not compatible with animated textures as the vanilla code also doesn't support it. Developed By n0t_UN_Owen
