I want to not render certain blocks inside certain chunks. I want there to be no texture in the place of the block... something like XRay...

 

and 1 more question...

What happened to RenderWorldEvent?

I don't seem to be able to find it

Hmm. I hadn't looked at that event for a while but you're right, it is not in 1.12.1 and looking at the events in minecraft forge client events referenced library doesn't show anything that looks like a replacement to me.

Is there any other way I could go about it?

 

I'm not sure about another way to intercept the render, but hopefully someone else knows.

 

There are other ways that would be a lot of work, but I think possible. For example, perhaps you could replace the vanilla models with ones that are conditional based on a player capability.

 

EDIT: Actually probably wouldn't work assuming you want to only make specific locations invisible. See more below.

Actually, do you want all blocks of certain type to go invisible, or just certain ones within view or something based on specific positions? Any scheme to mess with the block models would affect all the blocks of that type. 

 

If you want different behavior for a block based on its specific position you only have two options: metadata or tile entity. Both of those imply that you would need a custom block since vanilla blocks don't have metadata for that and adding tile entities to all the vanilla blocks of a certain type would cause performance and storage problems.

 

So you probably gotta find a way to intercept the render.

 

Well... I want to intercept the render... But I don't know how... Can I do it through event and which one to use then? I wanted to use RenderWorldEvent for that, but it doesn't exist anymore.

 

And yea, I want to change all the blocks of the same type

 

Aaaand I can't change blocks, so it has to be a render event.

Wait

Are you trying to prevent the render of a specific block that you control, or something else?

I'm trying to prevent loading of normal vanilla blocks without changing any metadata or tile entitying it...

I want to make it similar to XRay...

I'm making ore radar that makes blocks around you in a radius transparent/non-rendered...

Ah, there we go.

Almost certainly going to be almost impossible to pull off.

But how would I do it?

 

I don't know.
