Create a block that can have different textures?

[Atijaf]

This block could mimic any texture of any blocks.  Also, this block would keep it's original texture when it was placed.

 

Example:

I place this block down and it'll mimic the texture of sand.

I place this block down again, but this time, it'll mimic the texture of stone.

Both blocks will keep their textures.

 

Here is what I have.

How would I obtain the texture for each block, telling the renderer what to render?

you could use an ISmartBlockModel.

How would I use an ISmartBlockModel with a tileEntity?

Hi, you can use the tile entity's NBT to switch different models in ISmartBlockModel. Just register different ModelResourceLocations on the ModelBakeEvent.
