IBlockColor not changing color of block

[NullDev 0]

I register an IBlockColor like this:

Minecraft.getInstance().getBlockColors().register(new CakeColor(0xad6b15), block); //Cake color implements IBlockColor and its method

 

The getColor method is setup like this:

@Override
    public int getColor(BlockState p_getColor_1_, @Nullable IBlockDisplayReader p_getColor_2_, @Nullable BlockPos p_getColor_3_, int p_getColor_4_) {
        return color; // Returns the same color regardless of state
    }

Yet the color of my cake still uses the base texture when placed on the ground. I need the color to change.

That is incorrect. Use ColorHandlerEvent.Block.

Show your model JSON and texture.

I am now registering the colors using that event, but nothing has changed. I even have the event logging to the console to check that it is working.

Blockstate:

{
  "variants": {
    "bites=0": {
      "model": "tons_of_cakes:block/cake"
    },
    "bites=1": {
      "model": "tons_of_cakes:block/cake_slice1"
    },
    "bites=2": {
      "model": "tons_of_cakes:block/cake_slice2"
    },
    "bites=3": {
      "model": "tons_of_cakes:block/cake_slice3"
    },
    "bites=4": {
      "model": "tons_of_cakes:block/cake_slice4"
    },
    "bites=5": {
      "model": "tons_of_cakes:block/cake_slice5"
    },
    "bites=6": {
      "model": "tons_of_cakes:block/cake_slice6"
    }
  }
}

cake.json:

{
  "parent": "block/cake_slice1",
  "textures": {
    "down": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_bottom",
    "up": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_top",
    "north": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_side",
    "south": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_side",
    "east": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_side",
    "west": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_inside"
  }
}

cake_slice1:

{
  "parent": "block/cake_slice1",
  "textures": {
    "down": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_bottom",
    "up": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_top",
    "north": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_side",
    "south": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_side",
    "east": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_side",
    "west": "tons_of_cakes:blocks/cake_inside"
  }
}

and the textures it is referencing are black and white versions of the vanilla textures, but it doesn't even show as black and white in game. It shows as the original vanilla texture.

You set the vanilla cake_slice1 as your parent model and then do not override any of its textures (you specify six new textures instead, which go unused).

You also need to specify a tintindex of 0 for any face in your model that you want colored (look at the vanilla colorable models as examples).

How do I override textures?

Just like you did already, but you need to use the texture names that are actually used by the parent model, instead of specifying new ones.
