[1.10.2][Solved] Solid Block renders transparancy white

[Lhykos]

Heya!

 

I know that minecraft renders transparency black, if the block model is solid. (Like the leaves if the graphic settings is set to 'Fast')

The same I  do for one of my blocks. The strange thing is that the transparency is rendered white instead of black and I don't know why.

 

Everything works just fine, because if I replace my block texture with the default oak leaves texture the transparency is rendered black.

That means my blockstate file, model file and block class work like it should.

I think there is something wrong with my texture. Do I have to pay attention to something special? Maybe the color space?

At the end I took the "File->Export->Save for Web..." option from Photoshop. I selected "PNG-8" and there is the option to set the transparency color.

Technically, Minecraft does not stand for that. It simply renders what it was given.
The PNG format makes use of something called "Transparent colour".
Most image-editing software that exports into PNG will have a "Transparent Colour" option when exporting.

Would you mind if I asked what software you used? I haven't seen a non-white default TC outside Krita, so far.

That's something I didn't know. Would be explain many problems in the past.

 

I use Photoshop, but I never saw a option to set this.

Try setting the opacity as white, but at 1% opaque. When rendering transparency as transparent, Minecraft ignores transparency values below about 10%.

That are two things I will keep in mind for the future. Always good to know that.

If I had known that the solution is that simple, then this thread wouldn't exist. Thanks!
