Posted June 30, 20223 yr I'm trying to create a block that has semi-transparent gems encrusted in it. My previous attempts using the .translucent property and just the one texture layer resulted in a block that I could see right through into the world behind. So therefore I thought that two texture layers would be the way to go. I've tried two different ways with no success, using both block/block and block/cube and cube_all. { "parent": "minecraft:block/block", "textures": { "layer0": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "layer1": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems" } } { "parent": "minecraft:block/block", "textures": { "down": { "layer0": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "layer1": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems" }, "up": { "layer0": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "layer1": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems" }, "north": { "layer0": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "layer1": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems" }, "south": { "layer0": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "layer1": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems" }, "east": { "layer0": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "layer1": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems" }, "west": { "layer0": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "layer1": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems" } } } If anyone has done something similar they could point me towards?

June 30, 20223 yr you are using the minecraft:block/block as parent model you need to make your own cuboid model block whit the layers you need in this case sounds like a block inside another block { "parent": "block/block", "elements": [ { "from": [ 0, 0, 0 ], "to": [ 16, 16, 16 ], "faces": { "down": { "texture": "#down", "cullface": "down" }, "up": { "texture": "#up", "cullface": "up" }, "north": { "texture": "#north", "cullface": "north" }, "south": { "texture": "#south", "cullface": "south" }, "west": { "texture": "#west", "cullface": "west" }, "east": { "texture": "#east", "cullface": "east" } } }, { "from": [ 1, 1, 1 ], "to": [ 15, 15, 15 ], "faces": { "down": { "texture": "#indown", "cullface": "down" }, "up": { "texture": "#inup", "cullface": "up" }, "north": { "texture": "#innorth", "cullface": "north" }, "south": { "texture": "#insouth", "cullface": "south" }, "west": { "texture": "#inwest", "cullface": "west" }, "east": { "texture": "#ineast", "cullface": "east" } } } ] } Edited June 30, 20223 yr by perromercenary00
June 30, 20223 yr layer0, layer1 are what you use when defining layers for item models block models work differently (they are sided) you need to define an elements array, look at the vanilla grass block model that uses 2 elements { "parent": "block/block", "textures": { "particle": "block/dirt", "bottom": "block/dirt", "top": "block/grass_block_top", "side": "block/grass_block_side", "overlay": "block/grass_block_side_overlay" }, "elements": [ { "from": [ 0, 0, 0 ], "to": [ 16, 16, 16 ], "faces": { "down": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#bottom", "cullface": "down" }, "up": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#top", "cullface": "up", "tintindex": 0 }, "north": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#side", "cullface": "north" }, "south": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#side", "cullface": "south" }, "west": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#side", "cullface": "west" }, "east": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#side", "cullface": "east" } } }, { "from": [ 0, 0, 0 ], "to": [ 16, 16, 16 ], "faces": { "north": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#overlay", "tintindex": 0, "cullface": "north" }, "south": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#overlay", "tintindex": 0, "cullface": "south" }, "west": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#overlay", "tintindex": 0, "cullface": "west" }, "east": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#overlay", "tintindex": 0, "cullface": "east" } } } ] } They are drawn in order. You can ignore/remove the tintindex, that is used by vanilla to change the grass colour in different biomes. It looks like you already have the rendertype defined for your blocks as cutout() Boilerplate: If you don't post your logs/debug.log we can't help you. For curseforge you need to enable the forge debug.log in its minecraft settings. You should also post your crash report if you have one. If there is no error in the log file and you don't have a crash report then post the launcher_log.txt from the minecraft folder. Again for curseforge this will be in your curseforge/minecraft/Install Large files should be posted to a file sharing site like https://gist.github.com You should also read the support forum sticky post.
June 30, 20223 yr Author Thanks both for the replies. So something like this? { "parent": "minecraft:block/block", "elements": [ { "from": [ 0, 0, 0 ], "to": [ 16, 16, 16 ], "faces": { "down": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems", "cullface": "down" }, "up": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems", "cullface": "up" }, "north": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems", "cullface": "north" }, "south": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems", "cullface": "south" }, "west": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems", "cullface": "west" }, "east": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld_gems", "cullface": "east" } } }, { "from": [ 1, 1, 1 ], "to": [ 15, 15, 15 ], "faces": { "down": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "cullface": "down" }, "up": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "cullface": "up" }, "north": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "cullface": "north" }, "south": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "cullface": "south" }, "west": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "cullface": "west" }, "east": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "cullface": "east" } } } ] }
June 30, 20223 yr The from/to on the second element should probably be 0,0,0 to 16,16,16. Edited June 30, 20223 yr by warjort Boilerplate: If you don't post your logs/debug.log we can't help you.

June 30, 20223 yr You also need to define a "particle" texture, otherwise you will get purple particles when you break your block.

June 30, 20223 yr Author Hmmm, still getting the purple and black 'no texture'. What does cullface do? { "parent": "minecraft:block/block", "particle": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld", "elements": [ { "from": [ 0, 0, 0 ], "to": [ 16, 16, 16 ], "faces": { "down": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "down" }, "up": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "up" }, "north": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "north" }, "south": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "south" }, "west": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "west" }, "east": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "east" } } }, { "from": [ 0, 0, 0 ], "to": [ 16, 16, 16], "faces": { "down": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "down" }, "up": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "up" }, "north": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "north" }, "south": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "south" }, "west": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "west" }, "east": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "east" } } } ] }
June 30, 20223 yr "textures": { "particle": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_overworld" }, Texture variables need to be defined in a textures block. "cullface": "xxx" Tells minecraft it doesn't need to draw the texture if there is a full block in the xxx direction. Its an optimization.

June 30, 20223 yr That wiki post from earlier says: " texture: Specifies the texture in form of the texture variable prepended with a #." So you can't directly reference the texture inside an element, you need to use texture variables. Something like - you will need to change them all, I only changed the first one. { "parent": "minecraft:block/block", "textures": { "particle": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "texture1": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "texture2": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate" }, "elements": [ { "from": [ 0, 0, 0 ], "to": [ 16, 16, 16 ], "faces": { "down": { "texture": "#texture1", "cullface": "down" }, "up": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "up" }, "north": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "north" }, "south": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "south" }, "west": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "west" }, "east": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate_gems", "cullface": "east" } } }, { "from": [ 0, 0, 0 ], "to": [ 16, 16, 16], "faces": { "down": { "texture": "#texture2", "cullface": "down" }, "up": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "up" }, "north": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "north" }, "south": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "south" }, "west": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "west" }, "east": { "texture": "kanohicraft:block/lightstone_block_deepslate", "cullface": "east" } } } ] } Boilerplate: If you don't post your logs/debug.log we can't help you.

June 30, 20223 yr I think you probably also wants the gems as texture2? The overlaying texture should be drawn after the main texture.

July 1, 20223 yr Author Hey this did the trick, thank you! Just need to refine my actual texture pngs now.
