Everything related to the mod works perfectly, the problem comes when my added block (which is an extended version of a repeater, and reuses it's textures except for the top) is rendering the transparent parts of the lit redstone torch. I have the same part of the json file, with the correct uv mappings for said torches.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The following, is the json file for the vanilla repeater. I will exclude unrelated parts of the model, so that it doesn't become hard to read, and because I don't think the issue is with the json file per se.

{
    "ambientocclusion": false,
    "textures": {
        "particle": "block/repeater_on",
        "slab": "block/smooth_stone",
        "top": "block/repeater_on",
        "lit": "block/redstone_torch"
    },
    "elements": [
        /* ignore the "top" part of the model */ ,
        /* here starts the movable torch (for delay) */
        {   "from": [ 7, 7, 6 ],
            "to": [ 9, 7, 8 ],
            "faces": {
                "up":   { "uv": [ 7, 6, 9, 8 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        },
        {   "from": [ 7, 2, 5 ],
            "to": [ 9, 8, 9 ],
            "faces": {
                "west": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" },
                "east": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        },
        {   "from": [ 6, 2, 6 ],
            "to": [ 10, 8, 8 ],
            "faces": {
                "north": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" },
                "south": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        },
        /* here starts the unmovable torch */
        {   "from": [ 7, 7, 2 ],
            "to": [ 9, 7, 4 ],
            "faces": {
                "up":   { "uv": [ 7, 6, 9, 8 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        },
        {   "from": [ 7, 2, 1 ],
            "to": [ 9, 8, 5 ],
            "faces": {
                "west": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" },
                "east": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        },
        {   "from": [ 6, 2, 2 ],
            "to": [ 10, 8, 4 ],
            "faces": {
                "north": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" },
                "south": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        }
    ]
}

 

And here's my json file:

{
    "ambientocclusion": false,
    "textures": {
        "particle": "block/repeater_on",
        "slab": "block/smooth_stone",

        "max": "block/cyan_wool",
        "lit": "block/redstone_torch"
	},
    "elements": [
    	/* mod parts */,
        /* movable torch */
        {   "from": [ 7, 7, 6 ],
            "to": [ 9, 7, 8 ],
            "faces": {
                "up":   { "uv": [ 7, 6, 9, 8 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        },
        {   "from": [ 7, 2, 5 ],
            "to": [ 9, 8, 9 ],
            "faces": {
                "west": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" },
                "east": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        },
        {   "from": [ 6, 2, 6 ],
            "to": [ 10, 8, 8 ],
            "faces": {
                "north": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" },
                "south": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        },
        /* unmovable torch */
        {   "from": [ 7, 7, 2 ],
            "to": [ 9, 7, 4 ],
            "faces": {
                "up":   { "uv": [ 7, 6, 9, 8 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        },
        {   "from": [ 7, 2, 1 ],
            "to": [ 9, 8, 5 ],
            "faces": {
                "west": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" },
                "east": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        },
        {   "from": [ 6, 2, 2 ],

                "south": { "uv": [ 6, 5, 10, 11 ], "texture": "#lit" }
            }
        }
    ]
}

What do you have the RenderType set too?

You would likely be correct. Could you post your code and check out this post.

I haven't, I'm guessing I should specify it inside when registering the block? or is it inside the block class?

Check the link I posted.

How do I get the instance of my block so that I can set the render layer? Should I just instanciate a new one?

No you need to use the instance you already registered.

I forgot to use .get() after the instance, and was obviously getting an error. Thank you both for the fast responses!
