EDIT: Figured it out. Used System.currentTimeMillis(). THANKS TO ALL THAT HELPED! Thank you very much for your response. I think TESR is my way to go, but if I fail, I'll take your advice and just use textures. So is there an API way to animate? Or do I have to write a timer myself? The problem is that renderTileEntityAt is ran every tick for block existing in the world. So if I have two blocks then it will be ran 2 times per tick. I have something that I would like to turn on and off though. I want an animation similar to ComputerCraft's blinking placeholder. Any ideas?

Yeah, I just did some research on the ISmartBlockModel class and alike. I had no previous knowledge of this class. I'm finding it very confusing. I can set it up properly with the event but how do I draw pixels over the face of the block?

Sorry that was unclear. I mean that I don't want to have to have two different textures for the block, one on, and another off. I want to have one texture and then draw a pixel (green/red) at a certain spot on the face.

Hey everyone. So my mod consists of a few blocks. Most of which are forms of machines. I want to have an indicator drawn over the texture on only one face. So for example, change the pixel of the texture to a different color when the machine is on. I really don't want to have textures for on and off, I want my code to be unique. Any ideas?
