Hello, I was trying to make a flower block, everything went fine until I excuted the program and tested it out. Once in game, both the flower block and the potted flower block was the expected cross model but with a black background instead of transparent background. Anyone have a solution to this? I was using Forge 1.18.2.

The texture for the flower also have a transparent background in the image editor.

The code for the flower:

public static final RegistryObject<Block> FROZEN_ROSE = registerBlock("frozen_rose", () -> new
            FlowerBlock(MobEffects.MOVEMENT_SLOWDOWN, 5, BlockBehaviour.Properties.copy(Blocks.DANDELION).noOcclusion()),
            CreativeModeTab.TAB_DECORATIONS);

Code for potted flower:

public static final RegistryObject<Block> POTTED_FROZEN_ROSE = registerBlockWithoutBlockItem("potted_frozen_rose", () -> new
                    FlowerPotBlock(() -> ((FlowerPotBlock) Blocks.FLOWER_POT), ModBlocks.FROZEN_ROSE,
            BlockBehaviour.Properties.copy(Blocks.POTTED_DANDELION).noOcclusion()));

Code for the RenderType under FMLClientSetupEvent:

private void clientSetup(final FMLClientSetupEvent event) {
        ItemBlockRenderTypes.setRenderLayer(ModBlocks.FROZEN_ROSE.get(), RenderType.cutout());
        ItemBlockRenderTypes.setRenderLayer(ModBlocks.POTTED_FROZEN_ROSE.get(), RenderType.cutout());
    }

I've also checked the JSON files, and they are all error free. Anyone have a solution to my issue here? Any help provided would be really appreciated!

the json is error free but do you have the line "render_type": "cutout" in your model class?

You mean under "models/block/blockname.json" or the main class? If so, the line "render_type":"cutout" doesn't work if written inside the json files and I have already included RenderType.cutout() under FMLClientSetupEvent in my main class.

 

I was referring to version 1.20.1. I apologize for mentioning the wrong version.

It's alright. But do you have a solution to my version?

you already have it.  you set RenderType.cutout()  in FMLClientSetupEvent. 
find out why that code doesn't execute.

I already looked around and dug the external libraries, but found no solution. Also, if I can figure out why it doesn't execute, I won't be asking here.

your client setup method looks fine.
did you add it as a listener in main mod class constructor?

DistExecutor.unsafeRunWhenOn(Dist.CLIENT, () -> () -> FMLJavaModLoadingContext.get().getModEventBus().addListener(ClientEvents::clientSetup));

(replace clientevents with how you called that class)

I looked back, and realised I forgot to put "eventBus.addListener(this::clientSetup);" in my main constructor. And I fixed it

Anyways, thank you for you time.

do not keep client-only code in your main mod class or any class that has anything else in it.

it needs to be a separate class with client things (ItemBlockRenderTypes.setRenderLayer call etc.) and nothing else. on a dedicated server, it needs to stay unloaded.

to subscribe to an event, use the annotation (preferred way) or the line i gave you above. do not call addListener unconditionally.

Ok noted, thank you.
