json, block rotation and all these things.

updating from 1.7.10 to 1.9.4, i had/have 4 blocks with 16 point rotational placement, like skulls, banners etc.. advised to move away from tesr's for such things I encountered some challenges. the first is that blockstate jsons only recognise angles in multiples of 90. In order to get to 16, i had to create 4 block model files in which the skull element would be given an additional rotation, which is limited to being 22.5, 45, 0, -22.5, and 45.

 

So, my 16 rotation variants are grouped into 4s, each group specifying rotations of 0, 90, 180 and 270  for 4 different models, that apply element rotations of 22.5, 0, -22.5 and 45.

 

It isn't surprising that skulls are still handled by tesrs in vanilla.

 

Is there another option. Will an obj model avoid both the tesr and the json?

This, at least, doesn't work, as the Forge class also makes the call to ModelRotation which is where the  90 increments are hard coded. is there a tag i should be using instead of "y" ?

 

 

{

  "forge_marker": 1,

  "variants": {

    "rotation=0": { "model": "thejungle:ancientSkull" },

    "rotation=8": {"model": "thejungle:ancientSkull", "y": 180},

 

    "rotation=9": {"model": "thejungle:ancientSkull", "y": -202.5},

    "rotation=13": {"model": "thejungle:ancientSkull", "y": -292.5},

i was unable to match the syntax used in the documentation. eg " "rotation": { 0: { stuff here "produced an error.

    "rotation=1": { "model": "thejungle:ancientSkull", "transform": {"rotation": {"y": -22.5}}},

 

the above rotates and grows/shrinks the textures, depending on the block face, which is weird as well as unhelpful.

i've tried leaving out the transform tag and/or using post-rotation instead of rotation, but that accomplishes nothing.

there are no errors in the json, or in the console. textures are currently being handled in the model file.

its as if the rotation is being applied, but the texture doesnt know how to apply to the "angled" surface and stays at right angles. this suggests i'm missing something related to textures but i cant find any indication that changes are required in the block model file and none of the syntax variations ive tried have worked.

    • They were already updated, and just to double check I even did a cleanup and fresh update from that same page. I'm quite sure drivers are not the problem here. 
    • i tried downloading the drivers but it says no AMD graphics hardware has been detected    
    • Update your AMD/ATI drivers - get the drivers from their website - do not update via system  
    • As the title says i keep on crashing on forge 1.20.1 even without any mods downloaded, i have the latest drivers (nvidia) and vanilla minecraft works perfectly fine for me logs: https://pastebin.com/5UR01yG9
    • Hello everyone, I'm making this post to seek help for my modded block, It's a special block called FrozenBlock supposed to take the place of an old block, then after a set amount of ticks, it's supposed to revert its Block State, Entity, data... to the old block like this :  The problem I have is that the system breaks when handling multi blocks (I tried some fix but none of them worked) :  The bug I have identified is that the function "setOldBlockFields" in the item's "setFrozenBlock" function gets called once for the 1st block of multiblock getting frozen (as it should), but gets called a second time BEFORE creating the first FrozenBlock with the data of the 1st block, hence giving the same data to the two FrozenBlock :   Old Block Fields set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=head] BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@73681674 BlockEntityData : id:"minecraft:bed",x:3,y:-60,z:-6} Old Block Fields set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} Frozen Block Entity set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockPos{x=3, y=-60, z=-6} BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} Frozen Block Entity set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockPos{x=2, y=-60, z=-6} BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} here is the code inside my custom "freeze" item :    @Override     public @NotNull InteractionResult useOn(@NotNull UseOnContext pContext) {         if (!pContext.getLevel().isClientSide() && pContext.getHand() == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND) {             BlockPos blockPos = pContext.getClickedPos();             BlockPos secondBlockPos = getMultiblockPos(blockPos, pContext.getLevel().getBlockState(blockPos));             if (secondBlockPos != null) {                 createFrozenBlock(pContext, secondBlockPos);             }             createFrozenBlock(pContext, blockPos);             return InteractionResult.SUCCESS;         }         return super.useOn(pContext);     }     public static void createFrozenBlock(UseOnContext pContext, BlockPos blockPos) {         BlockState oldState = pContext.getLevel().getBlockState(blockPos);         BlockEntity oldBlockEntity = oldState.hasBlockEntity() ? pContext.getLevel().getBlockEntity(blockPos) : null;         CompoundTag oldBlockEntityData = oldState.hasBlockEntity() ? oldBlockEntity.serializeNBT() : null;         if (oldBlockEntity != null) {             pContext.getLevel().removeBlockEntity(blockPos);         }         BlockState FrozenBlock = setFrozenBlock(oldState, oldBlockEntity, oldBlockEntityData);         pContext.getLevel().setBlockAndUpdate(blockPos, FrozenBlock);     }     public static BlockState setFrozenBlock(BlockState blockState, @Nullable BlockEntity blockEntity, @Nullable CompoundTag blockEntityData) {         BlockState FrozenBlock = BlockRegister.FROZEN_BLOCK.get().defaultBlockState();         ((FrozenBlock) FrozenBlock.getBlock()).setOldBlockFields(blockState, blockEntity, blockEntityData);         return FrozenBlock;     }
