Geckolib

GeckoLib v5.0-alpha1

NOTE

• As of alpha1 glowmasks and animated textures are not functional. This will be resolved soon :)
• Additionally, I'm looking into alternate solutions for per-bone render handling since Mojang has made the previous Dynamic renderers not practical.
• If you use any of these functionalities, wait until the 5.0 full release, thanks.

General Changes

• Updated to Minecraft 1.21.5
• Converted the changelog to Markdown format

Internal Changes

• Rewrote the resource loading system to properly account for parallelised resource handling without hammering I/O
• Made GeoArmorRenderer inherit bone visibility from HumanoidArmorLayer#setPartVisibility to better work with third-party mods
• Default boneResetTime to 5-ticks, and auto-complete the reset the tick time is 0. This prevents unavoidable partial-tick bone resets
• Fixed middle-clicking on synced animatable items causing them to conflict when using triggered animations or synced data (#681)
• Bones that now use animations to do a full rotation should now no longer counter-rotate when resetting, allowing for cleaner rotation animations
• Synced animatable items no longer prevent stacking with each other
• Added memory compression to animation data. Larger modpacks should receive a reduction in memory usage
• Added a safety check for invalid use of Actor Variables in molang
• GeckoLib Entity rendering is now automatically compatible with NeoForge EntityRenderState modifiers
• Overrode vanilla's default hard-cap on entity nameplate rendering of 64 blocks. You can now go up to 256 blocks
• Fixed world-space positioning on GeoBones not accounting for partial-tick lerping
• Fixed non-living entities not having their Y-rotation accounted for in rendering
• Fixed death rotation doubling up on partialTick
• Fixed the BufferSource not being properly non-nulled in GeoObjectRenderer
• Fixed GeoEntityRenderer re-applying other PoseStack manipulations when reRendering
• Moved a lot of the render value creation back to vanilla to allow for better compatibility with vanilla and other mods
• Removed a number of superfluous method parameters throughout AnimationProcessor
• Renamed AnimationController#process to AnimationController#startTick
• Fixed the DefaultAnimations#genericFlyController not stopping if not moving
• Moved the AnimationState to prior to rendering to allow for optimised Molang Query population
• Fixed AnimationController's animation speed potentially being re-computed multiple times per render pass, resulting in inconsistent animation handling
• Renamed Keyframes to KeyframeMarkers
• GeckoLib now pre-determines which Molang Queries will be used for any given render frame, and pre-compute all relevant values and cache them. This allows for complex animation
• Moved AnimatableManager and any derivatives to a different package
• Moved AnimationController, AnimationProcessor, AnimationState to a different package
• Moved AutoPlayingSoundKeyframeHandler to a different package
• Removed AnimationPointQueue
• Moved per-bone render layer rendering to after the rest of rendering is complete
• Changed the way DyeableGeoArmorRenderer works to be a bit more accurate
• Fixed some javadoc mistakes in the various GeoRenderEvent classes

API Changes

• All GeckoLib assets now go in /assets/geckolib/
  • Animations go in /assets/<modid>/geckolib/animations/
  • Models go in /assets/<modid>/geckolib/models/
• All GeoRenderers now run on GeoRenderStates, rather than passing the animatable around. Mojang has made it clear this is the way we have to go :(
  • Removed GeoRenderer#getAnimatable
  • Removed various parameters from GeoRenderer's methods, moved them to GeoRenderState by default
  • Removed GeoEntityRenderer#isShaking
• AnimationState is now an internal class used for carrying the animation state through processing. Users should now use AnimationTest. It works functionally the same
• GeoRenderers extensions now take a second generic type; that of the RenderState type (and GeoRenderState)
• GeoModel model/animation references no longer expect the file path prefix or suffix (I.E. You do not need to include geo/ or .geo.json in your returned model resources)
• DataTickets now require creation through a factory method to ensure identity-parity
• SerializableDataTickets no longer require registration, but must still be created during mod construct
• All render methods in GeoRenderer has had the PoseStack and RenderState (previously Animatable) swap places in the args
• Molang variables are now all functions that operate on the current AnimationState for the render pass
• AnimationControllers no longer need the animatable passed to it
• Split the texture-retrieval and usage in AutoGlowingGeoLayer so that mods can override the texture as needed
• All DefaultAnimations helpers now default to 0-tick transition time for consistency and clarity
• Converted the FormatVersion to a string and converted it to a more flexible system
• Introduced an identity-based lookup for synced singleton animatables, to hopefully eliminate class-duplication collisions
• Marked AnimationState#getData as nullable to avoid confusion
• Marked the easingType argument in EasingType as nullable to avoid confusion
• Cleaned up the javadoc for EasingType
• GeoReplacedEntityRenderer now explicitly crashes upon trying to insert an entity as the animatable to prevent memory leaks
• Brought GeoReplacedEntityRenderer much more in line with GeoEntityRenderer to ensure accuracy
• CustomInstructionKeyframeEvent, SoundKeyframeEvent, and ParticleKeyframeEvent have all been consolidated into KeyFrameEvent
• CustomInstructionKeyframeHandler, SoundKeyframeHandler, and ParticleKeyframeHandler have all been consolidated into KeyframeEventHandler
• Converted KeyFrameEvent to a record
• Converted Calculation to a record
• MolangQueries is once again side-agnostic
• Various parts of the GeoRenderers are additionally provided an associated object for handling (ItemStack, replaced entity, etc.)
• Moved prepLivingEntityRenderState into GeoEntityRenderer so it can be overridden if needed
• Removed EntityModelData
• Removed DeferredGeoRenderProvider
• Removed InternalUtil
• Removed FileLoader
• Removed Color. Has been fully superceded by net.minecraft.util.ARGB
• Removed the GeoRenderer parameter from the various GeoModel getters as it is no longer needed
• Renamed the bone variables in GeoArmorRenderer to prevent collisions with HumanoidArmorModel's field names
• Renamed GeckoLibCache to GeckoLibResources
• Renamed AnimatableManager#setData to AnimatableManager#setAnimatableData (and its associated getter)
• Renamed AutoGlowingTexture#getEmissiveResource to #getOrCreateEmissiveTexture for clarity
• Moved GeoEntityRenderState to GeoRenderState
• The various Singleton registration helpers in GeckoLibUtil have been moved to the new SyncedSingletonAnimatableCache, with associated methods having their hierarchical scope reduced for clarity and safety
• Renamed GeoRenderLayer#renderForBone to #createPerBoneRender, which now requires that you return your operation as a runnable to be run later
• Removed DynamicGeoBlockRenderer, DynamicGeoEntityRenderer, and DynamicGeoItemRenderer. Use render layers instead for bone-specific handling. I will be looking at creating a helper class or alternate option for this
• Improved the generic typing for the various GeoRenderEvents to be more useful

New Stuff

• Animated textures now support glowmasks (#456)
• Added helper methods in GeoRenderer #setBonesVisible for ease of use

v4.7.1.2
