g.drawModel fails silently

[Slick]

Display d = new Display();

@Override
public void onPaint(Graphics2D g){
	log("aaaa");

	g.setColor(Color.RED);
	d.drawModel(g, myPlayer().getGridX(), myPlayer().getGridY(), myPlayer().getZ(), myPlayer().getModel());

	log("bbbb");
}

 

trying out the Display api and when I call drawModel it seems like it is throwing an exception silently as I never saw the second message being printed on the console

am I doing anything wrong here?

I am trying to draw the outline of entities and tiles on screen, searched for some older posts in the forum but no luck

 

EDIT: should be using getDisplay() rather than instantiating a new display class, all good now

Not sure what you are trying to do with this code, but you are trying to draw the display on top of your player

This draws the outline of a model
Same works for Npc,'s or whatever you are trying to draw.

public void onPaint(Graphics2D g){
RS2Object object = ....

  if(object != null && object.isVisible()){
     g.draw(object.getModel().getArea(object.getGridX(), object.getGridY(), object.getZ()));
  }
}

Retrieving a object in the onPaint method isn't a great example though, because this will result in FPS drops. The more things you load in the onPaint the harder your FPS drops
the best thing is to set the object inside the onLoop
 

RS2Object object;

public int onLoop(){
	object = ...;
}


public void onPaint(Graphics2D g){

  if(object != null && object.isVisible()){
     g.draw(object.getModel().getArea(object.getGridX(), object.getGridY(), object.getZ()));
  }
}
