[SOLVED] [1.7.2] How to make a transparent block?

[Texenox]

If you've read some previous posts of mine, you'll know that I was desperate to finish off my mod. Luckily, I have managed to figure out how to do it, and you won't hear me whine so much anymore as of now.

 

I will, however, ask for one last thing.

 

I have a mod which comprises a fully transparent block, and I have the texture for it loaded (entirely transparent). However, when I place it in my world, there is what seems to be a hole to the void underneath, despite the fact that there are solid, opaque blocks beneath.

 

If anyone would be kind enough to give me a pointer or two, I would accept it happily. Thanks. -TiExEx

If you want a current code example, here's one of my transparent blocks in 1.7.2:

did u add

 

 

public boolean isOpaqueCube() {

return false;

}

 

That doesn't even work in 1.7 anymore.
