Adding Layers

Geometry Dash

To add a custom background layer to a Geometry Dash menu, follow the example below. This demonstrates how to add a background layer in CreatorLayer.

#include "../../SwelvyBG.hpp"
#include <Geode/Geode.hpp>
#include <Geode/modify/CreatorLayer.hpp>

using namespace geode::prelude;

class $modify(MyCreatorLayer, CreatorLayer) {
	bool init() {
		if (!CreatorLayer::init()) {
			return false;
		}
		if (Mod::get()->getSettingValue<bool>("show-creator")){
			if (auto bg = this->getChildByID("background")){
				bg->setVisible(false);
			}

			auto swelvyBG = SwelvyBG::create();
			swelvyBG->setZOrder(-2);
			

			this->addChild(swelvyBG);
		}
		return true;
	}
};

External Mods

For external mods that modify the background of a specific menu, you can use the following example. This shows how to hook into GlobedLevelListLayer to add a custom background.

#include <Geode/Geode.hpp>
#include "../../SwelvyBG.hpp"
#include <alphalaneous.alphas_geode_utils/include/NodeModding.h>

using namespace geode::prelude;

SET_SWELVY(GlobedLevelListLayer, "dankmeme.globed2/GlobedLevelListLayer", "background");

This way is new from v2.0.0+!
