What would you use for rendering, ISBRH or TESR?

what ever just as simple it can be

[KeeganDeathman]

Well, if your using a custom model it's a bit trickier.

If your not, in your getIcon method in your block class, check the surrounding blocks, and return the icon based on the results.

Tinkers construct is an open source mod, if you want to make your glass like it look at the code to see how they have done it and try to replicate it.

 

Do not straight up copy the code because it will get you nowhere.

Then here is an easy way: Make textures for connected textures,

and override the method in the Block class:

  IIcon getIcon(IBlockAccess world, int x, int y, int z, int side)

in there you get the nearby blocks, check them, and select correct texture for it.

I would also like to give you a tip, don't take this the wrong way, but maybe you should learn Java a bit more and have a good understanding of it before you start modding minecraft. The reason why i say this is that modding minecraft is actually a tricky thing, in my own opinion, despite my 4-5 years of experience programming in Java, not even including the experience I have from programming in other languages before learning Java. So i strongly suggest that you, and others who might not be great at programming in Java, or are trying to learn how to program in Java by modding minecraft, to learn and fully understand Java and this is not directed at you, but others that may not know, the people on this forum do not take the time out of their day to teach you how to program in Java, they generally only assist in helping to solve your problem and answer questions about modding minecraft.

Also, to add, you can check nearby blocks using the function getBlock from World.

World is not a native part of block, but is passed into the getIcon method. So now you have it!

getBlock takes 3 parameters(those go in the parenthisis), the x y and z coordinates. You get the current block's coords passed into getIcon too, so just be like "world.getBlock(x, y+1, z)" to get the block above the current one.

Then check all the other blocks, and return the texture you want based off that.
