[1.7.10][1.8.9] Rendering of "phantom" blocks...

Before I go too far down a rat hole I figured I would ask some questions.

 

What I am looking to do is render client side effects as blocks.  These "phantom" blocks could occur anywhere in the world, x, y, or z.  These blocks do not exist in a chunk and are not accessible using the standard world.getBlock()/world.getBlockState().  In some cases they will be generated on the fly based on criteria.  State does not have to be persisted between world restarts.  These blocks would have no collision box as they are just visual effects.  Yada yada yada...

 

So, my questions...

 

  • How should I go about integrating my phantom block rendering into the Minecraft rendering system?  I have Googled examples of what others have done and some of them listen for rendering events in order to do rendering.  Seems straight forward if it is the right approach.
  • What I am not sure about is clipping - will my blocks be properly clipped if they happen to be behind other blocks or blocks that have transparency (leaf blocks)?

 

Thanks!

      Attempting to Create Custom Dimension in 1.16.5

      By Blade_Coldsteel · Posted

      Hello there! I am trying to make custom dimensions for a modpack I am making in an older minecraft version, 1.16.5. I like that version and it has a few other mods that have not been updated that I would still like to use. Anyway, I am having a terrible time with getting my dimension to work and have tried using code from other peoples projects to at least figure out what I'm supposed to be doing but it has not been as helpful as I would have liked. If anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated! Here is my github with all the code as I am using it: https://github.com/BladeColdsteel/InvigoratedDimensionsMod I have also included the last log, https://pastebin.com/zX9vsDSq, I had when I tried to load up a world, let me know if there is anything else I should send though, thank you!
