Is it possible without this happening?

This is the TileEntity chest class, and this is the renderer.

I tried tweaking things a bit, but it's just a complete mess.

What you see in the picture happens when you put down a normal chest next to the custom chest, which should have double-chest disabled. But, if you put the custom chest next to the vanilla chest, everything is okay.

Any help would be very appreciated!

I guess the problem is that you are extending TileEntityChest, and Vanilla is checking for instanceof TileEntityChest to decide if it needs to make that double chest texture.

I dont think you can do that by extending TileEntityChest.

What I would do is create my own TileEntity and implement all the methods you need

But can't I override anything in my chest to make it unique, so normal chests wouldn't want to connect to it?

The problem isnt your class, the problem is minecrafts class.

You can override stuff to prevent minecrafts chest to going into "double-chest mode" when your chest is getting placed second, but I dont think you can prevent it if minecrafts chest gets placed after yours.

But how does the normal chest detect my custom one as a TileEntityChest?

I think by instanceof TileEntityChest .

If you want to know it look inside the Chests classes

But how does the normal chest detect my custom one as a TileEntityChest?

 

Reading, dude, seriously, do it sometime.

Okay, thank you both! I got my answers.
