[ANSWERED]Custom Block Model can see through the world

[MrNoodles75]

[ANSWERED]

So I am new to modding and only have a basic understanding of some things as I have to figure most of it out for myself, well I created some custom models in Blockbench, and they work, but you can see through the world almost like your in spectator mode with them.

and their hitboxes are square like a block and do not cover just the model.

I do not know how to fix these things as I am new to this(I do know Java).

 

 

TLDR:

@Override
public BlockRenderLayer getRenderLayer() {
    return BlockRenderLayer.CUTOUT;
}

@Override
public VoxelShape getShape(BlockState state, IBlockReader worldIn, BlockPos pos, ISelectionContext context) {
    return VoxelShapes.create(blocksize);
}

Override getRenderLayer in your block classes where their model is not a solid cube and return either CUTOUT_MIPPED or CUTOUT.

Override getCollisionShape and return your own VoxelShape value.

how would I override those though, what are the return values etc?

also, what is a VoxelShape value?

They are methods in the block class. If you don't know what overriding is learn Java from another source. We don't teach Java here.

If you look at the method you would know...

A VoxelShape value is an instance of the VoxelShape class...

@Animefan8888

thank you,

but I don't understand how to create a VoxelShape Value

Then you must be using 1.12? Then it's override Block#getCollisionBoundingBox and return your own AxisAlignedBB value.

If you do a little looking you'll discover the VoxelShapes class that has the create methods for VoxelShape objects.

[MrNoodles75]

@Animefan8888

it throughs an error when I override getCollisionShape

it says method does not Override it's superclass

@Override
public VoxelShape getCollisionShape(IBlockReader worldIn, BlockPos pos, ISelectionContext context) {
    return VoxelShapes.create(new AxisAlignedBB(0.125, 0, 0.125, 0.875, 2, 0.875));
}

That's a Java error not a forge error. Please look it up. If eclipse ever yells at you with a red underline that is a Java error. Don't ask about those here.

[loordgek]

wait I think I fixed it before I was Overriding getCollisionShape from BlockState.java when I should have done it from Block.java

No...why doesn't the internet tell you why the error is caused. I'm kinda disappointed in it. The problem is your method signature is wrong. Look in the Block class and find the method called getCollisionShape

Yes, That's what I was saying, in Block.java the parameters are:

@Deprecated
public VoxelShape getCollisionShape(BlockState state, IBlockReader worldIn, BlockPos pos, ISelectionContext context) {
   
}

 

when I was using 

 

public VoxelShape getCollisionShape(IBlockReader worldIn, BlockPos pos, ISelectionContext context) {
   
}

 

and it worked! it affected the boundaries,

of course, it still looks like a block(those little black lines that show the boundaries) but it's not.

I did

 

@Override
public VoxelShape getRaytraceShape(BlockState state, IBlockReader worldIn, BlockPos pos) {
    return VoxelShapes.create(blocksize);
}

but it does not work

 

public static AxisAlignedBB blocksize = new AxisAlignedBB(0.500, 0.600, 0.500, 0.125, 0, 0.125);

it means the thin black lines that indicate the block boundaries still make the block look like a full-sized block when it should look like a

block with custom boundaries

There is also another method apparently, I'm not sure why Minecraft decided it needed 4 different Shape methods for the Block. You can actually just override getShape and it will be called in all the other shape methods (getCollisionShape, getRenderShape, getRaytraceShape)
