I am trying to implement a cable block, I have made a model that is smaller than a full block but  when I place it it doesn't render the ground or any adjacent block sides.

Here is a link to my project: https://github.com/FuturisticLux/engineerstech

 

Model:

{
    "textures": {
        "all": "minecraft:block/glass"
    },
    "elements": [
    	{
    		"from": [4,4,4],
    		"to": [12,12,12],
    		"faces": {
                "down":  { "uv": [4,4, 12,12], "texture": "#all" },
                "up":    { "uv": [4,4, 12,12], "texture": "#all" },
                "north": { "uv": [4,4, 12,12], "texture": "#all" },
                "south": { "uv": [4,4, 12,12], "texture": "#all" },
                "west":  { "uv": [4,4, 12,12], "texture": "#all" },
                "east":  { "uv": [4,4, 12,12], "texture": "#all" }
            }
    	}
    ]
}

 

BlockState:

{
  "forge_marker": 1,
  "defaults": {
    "textures": {
      "all": "minecraft:block/glass"
    },
    "model": "engineerstech:block/cable",
    "uvlock": true
  },
  "variants": {
    "": [{
    	"textures": {
      		"all": "minecraft:block/glass"
    	},
    	"model": "engineerstech:block/cable",
    	"uvlock": true
    }]
  }
}

 

I am registering it like this:

registerBlock(new OreBlock(Block.Properties.create( Material.GLASS ).hardnessAndResistance(3, 3).sound( SoundType.GLASS ).variableOpacity()), "cable");

public static Block registerBlock(Block block, String name)
{
        BlockItem itemBlock = new BlockItem(block, new Item.Properties().group(EngineersTechTab.instance));
        block.setRegistryName(name);
        itemBlock.setRegistryName(name);
        ForgeRegistries.BLOCKS.register(block);
        ForgeRegistries.ITEMS.register(itemBlock);
        return block;
}

 

Fix its returned voxel shape. Your block is not a full cube, so don't return a full cube voxel shape.

I changed my Cable class to this:

public class CableBlock extends Block{

	public static final AxisAlignedBB BASIC_AABB = new AxisAlignedBB(4, 4, 4, 12, 12, 12);
	public static VoxelShape shape;

	public CableBlock(Properties properties) {
		super(properties);
		shape = VoxelShapes.create(BASIC_AABB);
	}
	
	
	@Override
	public VoxelShape getShape(BlockState state, IBlockReader worldIn, BlockPos pos, ISelectionContext context) {
		return shape; 
	}
	
	@Override
	public VoxelShape getRenderShape(BlockState p_196247_1_, IBlockReader p_196247_2_, BlockPos p_196247_3_)
	{
		return shape; 
	}
	
	@Override
	public VoxelShape getCollisionShape(BlockState state, IBlockReader worldIn, BlockPos pos,
			ISelectionContext context) {
		return shape; 
	}
}

 

The shape of the block in game hasn't changed.

Sorry, I am an idiot. I was creating an OreBlock instead ob my CableBlock. It works now, thank you
