I make a block that has a partially transparent texture and I want it be clear like glass is. I copied the glass code and now my block sees right through the ground. How would I fix this?

 

Here is pictures of this and my code:

The block code:

public class BlockMachineFrame extends BlockBase {
    public BlockMachineFrame() {
        super(Material.IRON, "machine_frame");

        setHardness(3f);
        setResistance(5f);
        setHarvestLevel("pickaxe", 0);
    }

    @Override
    public BlockMachineFrame setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs tab) {
        super.setCreativeTab(tab);
        return this;
    }

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    public BlockRenderLayer getBlockLayer()
    {
        return BlockRenderLayer.CUTOUT;
    }

    public boolean isFullCube(IBlockState state)
    {
        return false;
    }
}

 

The blockstate file:

{
  "forge_marker": 1,
  "defaults": {
    "textures": {
      "all": "roboticraft:blocks/machine_frame"
    }
  },
  "variants": {
    "normal": {
      "model": "cube_all"
    },
    "inventory": {
      "model": "cube_all"
    }
  }
}

Try to override:

 public boolean shouldSideBeRendered(IBlockState blockState, IBlockAccess blockAccess, BlockPos pos, EnumFacing side) {}

 

In the BlockGlass class you can see its extends from BlockBreakable which override this too.

Lhykos: that says whether or not this block renders sides, not adjacent blocks.

 

This is what's missing:

	@Override
	public boolean isOpaqueCube(IBlockState state) {
		return false;
	}

Also, make sure you annotate all override methods with @Override

Ok, thanks for the help.

Oops. I knew that, just missed one of them.

That fixed it. Thanks

Two, actually: isFullCube and BlockRenderLayer.

Lol, oops. Thanks for pointing that out.
