Hi everyone, right now I'm in middle of converting my 1.7.10 code to 1.12.2. One of the blocks I had in before was a glass pane that changed its texture based on the position of where the pane was in relative to other blocks around it. Before i only used a 2D plane, but I was able to determine what axis the block was placed on using a combo of  "canPaneConnectToBlock" and "world.isSideSolid". Now that those methods are gone, I'm trying a to use a 3D plane where North(-Z) , East(-X)  and South(+Z), West(+X) are interchangeable. Up and down will be the Y axis. For now, all of my panes, no matter what position i put them in, are calculated as a bottom pane. Can anyone point me in the direction of what I should do for this?

Have a look at MBE05 in Minecraft by example, I think it’s exactly what you want

I looked at the example, and there isn't really much i can go off of given what I was trying to do. In the Block3DWeb it only seems to care about what next to the block first. Say if there were two blocks on the bottom and the left side, if the block saw the left block first, It would only care about the left block, not noticing the bottom block. What I need to determine is how block is facing in the world so i know which neighbors to use. It's a good example, but a bit over complicated for what I'm trying to do now ^^".

Post from the dead here. I finally got around to implementing the glass pane frames for my mod. Code wise I think I got the blockstate thing down. There are 16 states that these glass pane frames can be in along with the 4 states that I'm inheriting (North, South, East, West). I took a look at how the blockstate json handles its 4 states. Example here for Cyan Stained Glass Pane:

Now the 16 blockstates I've created are to go with the original 4 from BlockPane. If I do what I am thinking of doing, I will have to have 128 models just for 1 glass pane frame. Here is the question, is there a less painful way to create the blockstate and models?

I believe that is wrong...cant you just have two models per color/whatever(16). And then an extra one that's empty. Then an extra one that is empty to apply when it is false. Which comes to 16x2+1=33 which is a lot, but you can just parent the glass pane model and change the texture.

I see what you are saying. My concern would be if leave the false sides without a model, the model would not look as intended. I'll try what you are suggesting. It will be a good starting point at least.

    • Hey! I noticed you're trying to register your alexandrite item and possibly set its resource location manually with setId(...). I wanted to help clarify a few things that might simplify your code and avoid errors. ✅ The issue: You're using setId(...) inside the item registration like this:   public static final RegistryObject<Item> ALEXANDRITE = ITEMS.register("alexandrite", () -> new Item(new Item.Properties().useItemDescriptionPrefix() .setId(ResourceKey.create(Registries.ITEM, ResourceLocation.fromNamespaceAndPath(TutorialMod.MOD_ID, "alexandrite"))))); But: Item.Properties does not have a setId(...) method — this line will either fail or do nothing meaningful. useItemDescriptionPrefix() is mostly used for translation keys (like "item.modid.name") but isn't needed unless you have a very specific reason. 🛠 The fix: You only need to register your item like this:   public static final RegistryObject<Item> ALEXANDRITE = ITEMS.register("alexandrite", () -> new Item(new Item.Properties())); Forge automatically handles the ResourceLocation (modid:alexandrite) based on the name passed into .register(...), so there’s no need to manually assign it. 📝 For the texture: Make sure you have this file in your resources: src/main/resources/assets/tutorialmod/models/item/alexandrite.json { "parent": "item/generated", "textures": { "layer0": "tutorialmod:item/alexandrite" } } And your texture PNG goes here: src/main/resources/assets/tutorialmod/textures/item/alexandrite.png 🌍 For the name in-game: Add this to your en_us.json under: src/main/resources/assets/tutorialmod/lang/en_us.json { "item.tutorialmod.alexandrite": "Alexandrite" }   Note: if im wrong about the issues you are encountering, i apologize.
    • 🛠️ Fix for Transparent or Clipping Item Render Issues When Held in First Person (Forge 1.20+) Hey everyone! I recently ran into a frustrating bug while making a custom item (a rocket) for my Forge mod, and I’m sharing the fix because it’s a bit obscure — and it worked wonders. 💥 The Problem: My item rendered semi-transparent and see-through — but only in first person. It also clipped through nearby blocks when held, unlike default items like swords or leads. The texture file was confirmed to be fully opaque (alpha 255), so the issue wasn’t the PNG itself. Interestingly, when no texture was present and the default purple-black checkerboard appeared, the clipping issue disappeared. ✅ The Fix: I ended up resolving it by randomly trying something I found on a Forge forum post about block rendering. I added this property to my item's model JSON — even though it's typically only used for blocks: { "parent": "item/generated", "textures": { "layer0": "farbeyond:item/rocket_item" }, "render_type": "minecraft:cutout" } Boom. That single line forced the item to render using a proper opaque (cutout) layer, removing all the unwanted transparency and clipping behavior in first person. 🙌 Credit: I originally found the "render_type" trick mentioned here, in a block rendering context: 👉 https://forums.minecraftforge.net/topic/149644-1201-help-with-transparent-blocks/ Even though it was meant for blocks, I thought, why not try it on an item? And it worked! Big thanks to the poster — this fix wouldn’t have happened without that tip. Hopefully this helps anyone else stuck on a weird rendering bug like I was. This isn’t a common item solution, so feel free to share it further. I’d love to know if it works for you too.
    • Use Java 21 instead of Java 24   Also make a test without modernfix
    • Ive been on this world for 2 days now, my computer blue screens pretty often so maybe that has something to do with it. maybe just incompatible mods like a lot of people so im hoping someone more knowledgeable can help me find what i need to get rid of. thank you! paste bin
    • Should probably say that i am running minecraft 1.21.1 and with quite a lot of mods (many of which im unsure should even be on the server side)
