[1.7.2] Techne Modelling and Texture Questions

[Pandassaurus]

Hi again,

I just had two quick questions.

 

For Techne, is there a way, or an alternative, so that i can make smaller models? all the cubes i make have to be between 1x1x1 and 0x0x0, so there isn't much to do if you want a smaller model. I'm asking if there's another program to use or if there's a way to make smaller blocks.

 

Also, when i make the block and make textures for it, i want it to be transparent (with a tint of blue or white) on some models. But, when i do, it comes out to be a solid color, and it doesn't work. This happens when you hold an item in your hand that has a slightly faded texture: the whole color shows up for the texture. So, is there a way to make it slightly transparent through a method or certain color?

 

 

thanks a lot!

No but you can rescale the model in minecraft.

hi,

would you just, in the code, change the numbers?

hi,

well, i tried to do that, and i got an error. you have to have an integer in the size of the boxes, so is there a way around that?

hi,

i tried all i could and could not figure out if there was a way to make smaller models, or make transparent textures. If you figure it out, please do inform me.

 

thanks!

GL11.glScalef(0.5F,0.5F,0.5F)

will make the model twice as small as original.

hi,

thanks a lot! But, as far as i know, that only applies to the entire model. Is there a way to make it apply to a specific box? and if so, where would it go?

 

thanks for the response,

Try rendering it as two parts. First render normal size things and then scale and render smaller things.
