[1.8] Block-Break particle

Bektor · January 10, 2015

Hello,

I created a block that is using the model from the chest, but now I have one question: How to set the texture for the particles that appears if you break a block to "planks_oak"?

I hope here someone can help me, because on minecraft.de they tried to help me, but nothing seems to work...

So this are my .json files:

blockstates:

{
    "variants": {
        "normal": { "model": "minecraft:chest" }
    }
}

models/block:

{
    "parent": "block/cube-all",
    "textures":
    {
    	"all": "minecraft:blocks/chest"
    }
}

models/item:

{
    "parent": "builtin/entity",
    "textures":
    {
    	"layer0": "minecraft:planks_oak"
    },
    "display":
    {
    	"thirdperson":
    	{
    		"rotation": [ 10, -45, 170 ],
    		"translation": [ 0, 1.5, -2.75 ],
    		"scale": [ 0.375, 0.375, 0.375 ]
    	}
    }
}

I never expected that I would ever have 3 problems at the same time at two different projects... (MC-Mod, my 2d game with a modding api)

TGG has a working example here: https://github.com/TheGreyGhost/MinecraftByExample

The particular file you want to look at is this one: https://github.com/TheGreyGhost/MinecraftByExample/blob/master/src/main/resources/assets/minecraftbyexample/models/block/mbe01_block_simple_model.json

"particle": "blocks/lapis_block"

Bektor · January 11, 2015

Ok, I tested it with the

"particle": "blocks/lapis_block"

, but this will not work.

TheGreyGhost · January 11, 2015

It's because the block/cube_all model that you are using already has the particle texture defined.

block/cube_all:
{
    "parent": "block/cube",
    "textures": {
        "particle": "#all",
        "down": "#all",
        "up": "#all",
        "north": "#all",
        "east": "#all",
        "south": "#all",
        "west": "#all"
    }
}

Used block/cube instead and list all of the sides plus the particle texture, eg

{
    "parent": "block/cube",
    "textures": {
        "down": "minecraftbyexample:blocks/mbe01_block_simple_face0",
        "up": "minecraftbyexample:blocks/mbe01_block_simple_face1",
        "north": "minecraftbyexample:blocks/mbe01_block_simple_face2",
        "east": "minecraftbyexample:blocks/mbe01_block_simple_face5",
        "south": "minecraftbyexample:blocks/mbe01_block_simple_face3",
        "west": "minecraftbyexample:blocks/mbe01_block_simple_face4",
        "particle": "blocks/lapis_block"
    }
}

This will not work, too.

    		"scale": [ 0.375, 0.375, 0.375 ]
    	}
    }
}

models/block:

{
    "parent": "block/cube",

Hi

Well that's odd, I don't see an obvious problem. Are you sure it's not working? i.e. if you change particle to lapis blue, is your break block particles blue?

If not, I suggest a couple of things to try

First try a breakpoint in EntityDiggingFX to find out what texture your block is actually using

    protected EntityDiggingFX(World worldIn, double p_i46280_2_, double p_i46280_4_, double p_i46280_6_, double p_i46280_8_, double p_i46280_10_, double p_i46280_12_, IBlockState p_i46280_14_)
    {
        super(worldIn, p_i46280_2_, p_i46280_4_, p_i46280_6_, p_i46280_8_, p_i46280_10_, p_i46280_12_);
        this.field_174847_a = p_i46280_14_;
        this.func_180435_a(Minecraft.getMinecraft().getBlockRendererDispatcher().getBlockModelShapes().getTexture(p_i46280_14_));   //<----  breakpoint here
        this.particleGravity = p_i46280_14_.getBlock().blockParticleGravity;
        this.particleRed = this.particleGreen = this.particleBlue = 0.6F;
        this.particleScale /= 2.0F;
    }

If the block model is right but the texture is wrong, you will need to dig deeper into the loading of your model.

ModelBakery.bakeModel is where it looks for your texture in the parsed list of textures at this line

   private IBakedModel bakeModel(ModelBlock modelBlockIn, ModelRotation modelRotationIn, boolean uvLocked)
    {
        TextureAtlasSprite textureatlassprite = (TextureAtlasSprite)this.sprites.get(new ResourceLocation(modelBlockIn.resolveTextureName("particle")));   // here
        SimpleBakedModel.Builder builder = (new SimpleBakedModel.Builder(modelBlockIn)).setTexture(textureatlassprite);

You will need to add a conditional breakpoint (eg modelBlockIn.name.contains("bektor") == true) because this method is used by the vanilla blocks too and there are hundreds.

blockstates:

{
    "variants": {
        "normal": { "model": "minecraft:chest" }
    }
}

Try changing your model name in your blockstate file. You are now referencing to minecraft's chest model, so "normal": { "model": "yourmodel_id_lowercased:block_model_file_name" }

Well, but I want to use the chest model from minecraft, because I'm not interested in creating a new chest model.

No, my break block particles are not blue, they are still using the "missing texture" texture from minecraft.

Ok, how can I set a breakpoint in eclipse? And the model is correct, but the particles are wrong.

Thats the output from eclipse without loading a world:

So any idea?

Hi

Is this the name of your chest? If so, the problem appears to be that you haven't registered the models properly.

[19:30:40] [Client thread/WARN]: Unable to load variant: facing=east from primevalforest:lockedChest#facing=east

Show your block code and registration code?

You could try looking this example project for clues on how to properly register a block with variants

https://github.com/TheGreyGhost/MinecraftByExample

- see example 3 in particular

This link is very helpful on learning how to use the debugger, you'll wonder how you ever managed with out it...

Ok.

Here is the code of the Client proxy:

	// blocks
	renderItem.getItemModelMesher().register(Item.getItemFromBlock(ModBlocks.locked_chest), 0, new ModelResourceLocation("minecraft:chest", "inventory"));

(Don't forget, I have no model and texture created, all textures and models that this block is using are from the normal minecraft chest)

Ah. The problem appears to be that your blockstates is wrong. It doesn't have the facing variants that it expects to see - you have given your block four facings but the blockstates file doesn't have any of them.

Did you look in the links I sent earlier?

You need a blockstates file something like

{
    "variants": {
           "facing=north": { "model": "minecraftbyexample:mbe03_block_variants_model_red"},
            "facing=east": { "model": "minecraftbyexample:mbe03_block_variants_model_red", "y": 90 },
           "facing=south": { "model": "minecraftbyexample:mbe03_block_variants_model_red", "y": 180 },
            "facing=west": { "model": "minecraftbyexample:mbe03_block_variants_model_red", "y": 270 },
    }
}

Well, this doesn't help, too. The blockbreak particles are still not working and now I'm getting errors.

blockstates: (lockedChest.json)

{
    "variants": {
        "normal": { "model": "minecraft:chest" },
        "facing=north": { "model": "minecraft:chest"},
        "facing=east": { "model": "minecraft:chest", "y": 90 },
        "facing=south": { "model": "minecraft:chest", "y": 180 },
        "facing=west": { "model": "minecraft:chest", "y": 270 }
    }
}

and here the log from eclipse (because there is no error/crash log):
