Superimposing a Texture over a Block

[pro-mole]

Say I have an item, that I use on a block. When I do so, I want this block to be "marked" with a certain texture that's "painted" on top of the block's own texture. And then I want to undo that at another time. Is it possible to do that in Forge without dealing with core modding or ASM?

 

Thanks in advance!

Is the block made by you, or should it apply to any block?

 

If it's made by you, you can use metadata to do that, assuming you don't need a complex system.

If it's not, you can replace the block by another block made by yourself, and have a TileEntity store the block that was in that place.

 

I can't help any more unless you are more specific and give more details on the feature you're trying to create.

Both, actually. I want this to work with vanilla blocks and some new blocks too.

 

I guess making a new block for it will be better after all. I already store a blockId I'll use when working the Tile Entity anyway.
