GUI Texture Pack
GUI Texture Pack
I was interested in creating a texture pack replacing Minecraft's existing health bar with something more in line with what you would see in an RPG. I know it is possible to move the health bar and other elements into a desired location using the in-game shader folder. But I was curious if it was possible to add an icon that was set before the health bar.
I would be trying to create something similar to this, placing it at the top left of the screen:
I figured the actual hearts themselves could be the bar, but would there be a way to add that heart icon as well? Is it possible to make the hotbar texture larger and adding it into there? I am not familiar with the limitations the in-game shader folder presents. I just wanted to make sure this idea was possible before I got married to it and started creating designs. Of course, the food bar would have to rearranged to accommodate the new health bar location, but as of right now I'm strictly focusing on the health bar. Any help is greatly appreciated.
DartCat25's Circular Texturepack really inspired me, and I wanted to see how far the shaders folder could be pushed.
Obviously, anyone who has helped will be credited!

Hi! That's a great idea, and DarCat and I have actually been collaborating on this project recently and has been incredibly helpful with the coding and placing everything in the correct position. Really appreciate the response though! Be on the look out for the finished pack soon!
I will, I think a health bar like that would be really cool, might be a little hard to know exactly how much health you have, so maybe you could have small indicator lines that mostly blend in.
That's a good idea, I didn't even think about that!
Maybe you could try making the heart be a part of the hotbar file in just the right location, so that it looks how you want it?
