I am programming a leaf block into my mod. I added it as normal but upon opening the game all transparent sections are shown as black. I have read up on this and tried many different solutions and nothing has worked here is my code:

 

Registry Handler:

    public static void init() {

        ITEMS.register(FMLJavaModLoadingContext.get().getModEventBus());
        BLOCKS.register(FMLJavaModLoadingContext.get().getModEventBus());
    }


    // BLOCKS

    public static final RegistryObject<Block> SILVER_LEAVES = BLOCKS.register("silver_leaves", SilverLeaves::new);

    // BLOCK ITEM

    public static final RegistryObject<Item> SILVER_LEAVES_ITEM = ITEMS.register("silver_leaves", () -> new BlockItemBase(SILVER_LEAVES.get()));
    

    private static Block register(String key, Block blockIn) {
        return Registry.register(Registry.BLOCK, key, blockIn);
    }

}

 

SilverLeaves.java

package com.Cyanideee.UDWM.blocks;

import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.block.SoundType;
import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;
import net.minecraftforge.common.ToolType;
import net.minecraftforge.common.extensions.IForgeBlockState;

public class SilverLeaves extends Block {

    public SilverLeaves() {
        super(Properties.create(Material.LEAVES)
                .hardnessAndResistance(0.2f, 0.2f)
                .sound(SoundType.PLANT)
                .notSolid()




        );



    }


}

 

{
  "parent": "block/leaves",
  "textures": {
    "all": "udwm:blocks/silver_leaves"
  }
}

 

Any reason you aren't extending LeavesBlock?

Any reason you aren't telling the game your block is transparent?

Any reason you are using BlockItemBase? (A base block item already exists, its called BlockItem).

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.

Extending LeavesBlock in which file?
How would I tell the game that.
And in answer to the latter, I'm new to modding so I didn't know that.

Vanilla has leaves, right? Go find them.

Use the search. "transparent block" should get you five or six results

You're following someone else's shitty YouTube tutorial. You're doing things because they did things without stopping to think "why did they create that class?" and whether or not that class served a valid purpose. Using inheritance to avoid code reuse is not a valid purpose.

We've had this issue listed in the common problems post for about a year.

I mean if you're done monologuing... I wasn't exactly asking to stamp on your first born, just for a little help. I'll look into what you've suggested, thanks for the help?

Teach a man how to fish, etc etc.

I wouldn't call that monologuing. Draco18s is teaching you the correct/most effective way in solving similar problems (by searching in vanilla code and on the forums).

Some tips:

Spoiler

Modder Support:

Spoiler

1. Do not follow tutorials on YouTube, especially TechnoVision (previously called Loremaster) and HarryTalks, due to their promotion of bad practice and usage of outdated code.

2. Always post your code.

3. Never copy and paste code. You won't learn anything from doing that.

4. 

Quote

Programming via Eclipse's hotfixes will get you nowhere

5. Learn to use your IDE, especially the debugger.

6.

The "picture that's worth 1000 words" only works if there's an obvious problem or a freehand red circle around it.

Support & Bug Reports:

Spoiler

1. Read the EAQ before asking for help. Remember to provide the appropriate log(s).

2. Versions below 1.11 are no longer supported due to their age. Update to a modern version of Minecraft to receive support.

Update: I managed to fix the issue by looking into the things you suggested. While it may have taken a few hours, as you said, it will greatly help me in the long run :)
