I read this topic (http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,11558.msg59576.html#msg59576) but I didn't understand very well how to do it :\

 

I.e. I have a texture named "testBack" that has a screen (transparent), and I have another texture named "theOverlay"...

 

How can I register them so I can have the screen with the texture theOverlay?

 

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

    @Override

    public void registerBlockIcons(IIconRegister reg) {

        this.side = reg.registerIcon(textureSide);

       

        /* this next line is not what I have, it's just for showing what I want +- */

        this.front = reg.registerIcon(testBack + theOverlay);

    }

 

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

    @Override

    public IIcon getIcon(int side, int metadata){

        if (side == 1) return this.side;

        else if (side == 0) return this.side;

        else if (metadata == 2 && side == 2) return this.front;

        else if (metadata == 3 && side == 5) return this.front;

        else if (metadata == 0 && side == 3) return this.front;

        else if (metadata == 1 && side == 4) return this.front;

        else return this.side;

    }

 

Thank you

A texture is just that a texture.  If you want to render two at once, you need to render in multiple passes.

Hm, ok! So, if I understand right what you said, I need somthing like this:

 

 

public int pass;

 

public int getRenderBlockPass() {

        return this.pass;

    }

 

@Override

public boolean canRenderInPass(int pass) {

        this.pass = pass;

        return true;

    }

 

 

But how do I apply it? That's my question...

 

If I have an icon front[2], if I put in front[0] = theOverlay and in the front[1] = testBack, how do I render in multiple passes?

 

Thanks for the answer
