[1.12.1] Transparent block showing white on the transparent parts

[zezioen]

I'm extremely new to modding Minecraft (never done this before) and I am currently just trying things out to get a grip on how to write simple mods. I've currently got a test block called SoftObsidian which (just for testing purposes) uses the texture of it's item which has a bit of transparency around it. The block that is drawn in my inventory has the proper transparency applied to it but the actual bock in the world does not, that just turns the transparent parts into white

 

The blockstates json

{
    "forge_marker": 1,
    "defaults": {
        "textures": {
            "all": "nccomputermod:items/obsidianingot"
        },
        "model": "cube_all",
        "uvlock": true
    },
    "variants": {
        "normal": [{

        }]
    }
}

 

The block model json

{
    "parent": "block/cube_all",
    "textures": {
    	"all": "nccomputermod:items/obsidianingot"
    }
}

 

The item model json

{
	"parent": "block/cube_all",
	"textures": {
		"all":"nccomputermod:items/obsidianingot"
	}
}

 

The class for the SoftObsidian block

public class SoftObsidian extends Block
{
	public SoftObsidian()
	{
		super(Material.GLASS);//Attempt to get it to draw the transparent parts properly, didn't work
		
		setUnlocalizedName(Reference.MODID + ":" + Reference.ComputerModBlocks.SOFTOBSIDIAN.getUnlocalizedName());
		setRegistryName(Reference.ComputerModBlocks.SOFTOBSIDIAN.getRegistryName());
		setCreativeTab(ComputerMod.computerCreativeTab);
	}
	
	@Override
	public boolean isOpaqueCube(IBlockState state) 
	{
		return false;
	}
	
	@Override
	public boolean isTranslucent(IBlockState state) 
	{
		return true;
	}
}

 

The texture has it's transparency setup properly (the first item in my inventory has the exact same texture for now) but when drawn in the world on a block it just turns white. I've tried to override the isOpaqueCube and isTranslucent inside the class for this block but neither make a difference.

 

The block itself is setup properly and there are no errors thrown in the console, what do I need to do to make this block appear transparent in the world?

You need to override getBlockLayer() to return something other than SOLID. CUTOUT is probably what you want here.

Thanks! That works
