Possible to add different models to each meta data?

[happyPenguin]

Im just wondering if it was possible to create a block with meta data then have different models for each meta data block

So one block id will have 16 blocks all with different models.

 

If it is possible how would the best way go for doing this?

I've seen forestry do this though i don't know how, but off the top of my head you could just have the one model contain all models. Then have the render code render each part of the model by itself.

Thank you for the idea i'll try this out and see what I can do

One mod I saw used the switch system.  Might provide some help to look into it.

In renderWorldBlock you get metadata too, so you can add different bounds.

 

About TileEntity Renders you should get at last the block posotion so you can get metadata.

 

Good luck.
