[1.12.2] placed block not loading model

I've been having an issue where my blocks won't have a placed block render unless they have a resources/assets/<modid>/blockstates/*.json

Their renders work fine in the inventory, and when held, but not when placed.

 

I have 3 blocks that are relevant.

 

I have an ore block that uses damage and enum type property to determine the correct model/texture. It rendered fine with it's existing blockstate json. 

{
	"variants": {
		"type=copper": {"model": "madengineering:blockOre_copper"},
		"type=nickel": {"model": "madengineering:blockOre_nickel"},
		"type=chrome": {"model": "madengineering:blockOre_chrome"},
		"type=tungsten": {"model": "madengineering:blockOre_tungsten"}
	}
}

 

I have a simple custom model block that I had to add a basic blockstate json for it to work. 

{
    "variants": {
        "normal": {"model": "madengineering:blockframe"}
    }
}

 

And I have a much more complicated model with facing and an on/off state that's using the forge blockstate, and I have no idea how to fix it. 

{
  "forge_marker": 1,
  "defaults": {
    "model": "madengineering:blocks/blocksyngasgenerator"
  },
  "variants": {
    "hasfuel": {
      "true": {
        "textures": {
          "fuel": "blocks/planks_oak"
        }
      },
      "false": {
        
      }
    },
    "facing": {
      "north": {
        "y":0
      },
      "east": {
        "y":90
      },
      "south": {
        "y":180
      },
      "west":{
        "y":270
      }
    }
  }
}

 

 

The frame is the two you see, I'm having some trouble with them registering as full blocks even though they're set as transparent.

The errored block is the same as the one I'm holding, and is floating above it, so it has a working model.

That's how block rendering works, it needs a blockstate file. The blockstate file resolves the blockstate of a block to a model.

Define "registering as full blocks". They are full blocks. If you mean the adjacent blocks having the sides touching the frames be transparent you need to override Block#isOpaqueCube and return false.

 

As for the missing model block post your startup log, it should contain an error related to it.

Okay, I figured the blockstates file was only needed if the block had different states.

 

Really? I figured this.translucent=true; would fix that, but alright.

 

I've looked through the startup log 100 times, but there's only a bunch of errors relating to my items that I haven't made textures for yet. itemIngot and itemComponent, nothing related to blockSyngasGenerator.

Fix those errors first then, it caps the amount of errors it spits into the log to reduce spam (you should see something like “suppressed an additional X errors for the domain youModID”)

Caused by: net.minecraft.client.renderer.block.model.ModelBlockDefinition$MissingVariantException

Expand  

There's more, as this error is only thrown if another error occurs, unless your blockstate json file is missing the desired variant.

 

Which, it likely is, seeing as that error is for the normal variant and your supplied blockstate file does not have a normal variant.

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

 

Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked.

 

DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.

Yeah, that's the ONLY error, meaning you're right about the normal variant.

 

After 30 minutes of looking up the way forge blockstates are supposed to handle the normal variant when using the defaults statement....


this is what I got and it works finally

EDIT:

and for anyone interested, the frame was fixed with overriding the isOpaqueCube() and returning false (as suggested), and also setting useNeighborBrightness = true; so it would light the inside of the block correctly and pass light through.
