I have a block which loads from an obj file

The obj is quite large and I want it to still render when the player isnt actually viewing the block (i.e, make the block render even if its not in the viewport, but is within the chunk render distance)

How can I do this

ty

Blocks do not play nice when they are larger than 1x1x1. Use multiple blocks and models.

How do I split them up then?

see how doors, beds, tall bush blocks.. etc does it.

Ah I will do do that thanks

Also

Would if I made it an entity and then made it ignore the frustum check would that work?

If you make a TileEntity you can tell it to render anywhere even when out of view

See BeaconTileEntityRenderer, in particular isGlobalRenderer()

tgg thank you so much!!!

I am not experienced at all with entities so could you link a good and easy tutorial??

Note, im on 1.12.2 so that might be different?
