[1.17.1] Trying to get blocks to get a block to be see through.

[Zevinn]

Hey, I have added certain blocks to my game. Some that require for the black spots that Minecraft gives to solid blocks to be opaque. I understand in 1.16 you could render it to have no opaqueness, but a lot of the 1.16 forge methods no longer work in 1.17.

look at createTrivialBlock(a,b); on package net.minecraft.data.models.BlockModelGenerators;

(i don't know how it works but i think it may give u a hint)

Blocks.AIR?

...is not a real block.

Glass would be a better thing to examine.

Look at how the glass block is registered, there might be a property for that.
You'll also most likely need to subscribe to FMLClientSetupEvent and then use ItemBlockRenderTypes#setRenderLayer. You'll need to pass it your block and the render type.
