Why is "счастливый" in instrumental case in the following sentence?

I translated the sentence "`You make me happy.`" to Russian with an online translator. And it translated that as "**ты делаешь меня счастливым.**". Why is the instrumental case necessary here?

Я был бы счастлив... Я был бы счастливым, в таком контексте не говорят.
