[1.8] Custom Slabs and Stairs Lighting Problem

[Eternaldoom]

Hi,

 

I'm updating my mod to 1.8 and noticed that although my stairs and slabs extend BlockStairs and BlockSlab, they make the area above/below them look "shadowed." If I turn off smooth lighting, the area is completely black. Additionally, the faces of the slabs disappear when I place another slab next to them (but a different half). Does anyone know why this is? Is the rendering of slabs and stairs hardcoded into vanilla now?

Try using.

 

this.setLightOpacity(0);

Tell me if it works 1.8 too, because this is in 1.7.10 and i can't test it right now ^^

I don't know if you already have this, and I'm not sure if it is the same in 1.8, but it works for me in 1.7, try:

 

public boolean isOpaqueCube() {
        return false;
}

public boolean renderAsNormalBlock() {
        return false;
}

 

Ignore this if you already have this. I am just trying to help .

Not Forge 1.8, MC 1.8 (I don't know what version of Forge is the earliest for 1.

It's not forge, it's fml. Forge hasn't been released yet. SetLightOpacity(0) did work, but then the blocks are completely transparent, right?

In 1.7.10 I used useneighborlightlevel = true. Or something close to that. On my phone so don't have access to my code.

 

[Eternaldoom]

Thanks I'll try that.

[Eternaldoom]

That worked. It was useNeighborBrightness. Thanks!

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I have been trying for weeks to figure out how to fix this in my mod!  I would hug you, if such things were possible over an ethernet cable.
