Using pre made textures is usually not a great idea. Best to try and make your own and practice texturing

Alright

#

another question

#

do you know how to make a specific block emit light?

#

ive tried using 2 textures, one that is emissive and one that isnt, but i cant use them both it applies one or the other

#

and i only want one block to emit light

#

im trying to give my model glowing eyes that kinda emit a light

#

if thats just a lot of complicated stuff then how would i just make the eyes appear to glow?

#

Im working on a big project by myself so i have to look up and research so much stuff at once XD

#

I just started a week ago and im trying to make a boss fight

#

If you want a block emit light you can check out the .luminance() property

#

oh wheres that?

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 2:19 AM

#

You add it when you register your block

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 1:52 PM

#

ummmmm

#

#

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 1:53 PM

#

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 1:53 PM

#

Have you ever tried adding blocks or items to begin with?

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 1:53 PM

#

#

it didnt work

#

but i tried it

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 1:54 PM

#

What about it did not work?

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 1:54 PM

#

uh well.. i guess ive never done items or blocks yet ive only done mobs

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 1:55 PM

#

Then why did you say you did do them before?

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 1:55 PM

#

cuz I figured it'd be the same

#

it was an accident

#

sorry

#

is adding items easier?

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 1:57 PM

#

Yeah - read the docs according to what mod API you are using (Forge or Fabric)

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 1:58 PM

#

holy moly ive got so much to learn

#

im making stuff with minecraft entity wizard rn T^T

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 1:58 PM

#

... That's Bedrock, not Java

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 1:58 PM

#

ik

#

i figured that out when i made this post

#

er

#

after

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 1:59 PM

#

So like, that's literally a totally separate realm

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 1:59 PM

#

and i realized i have to make a mod for that

#

so im trying to figure it all out

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 1:59 PM

#

The first thing you need to figure out is your platform - Bedrock or Java

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 2:00 PM

#

it will be Java, thats what im working towards

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 2:01 PM

#

Do you know Java?

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 2:01 PM

#

what does that question mean

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 2:01 PM

#

Do you know the programming language Java

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 2:02 PM

#

alr i think im good on asking for help i hate myself rn

#

thanks for trying

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 2:02 PM

#

We have tons of resources for new modders, but if you have that attitude toward learning then sorry, you'll never be able to do it

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 2:02 PM

#

yeah im gonna learn by myself

#

cyas

#

i just feel like im bothering you for some reason haha

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 2:03 PM

#

dire ginkgo We have tons of resources for new modders, but if you have that attitude toward ...

im confident i can figure it out

dire ginkgo Apr 7, 2023, 2:05 PM

#

Yeah you probably won't. Why? Not because you're incapable. You're more than capable, as everybody else is. But, you don't have a good learning attitude from what I can see. I can show you some resources that can get you running, but only if you change your learning attitude.

trail stump Apr 7, 2023, 2:05 PM

#

thats

#

fair

#

alr

#

sorry

To start modding Minecraft, it's strongly recommended to know Java.
Minecraft, and many mods, use more advanced Java concepts like lambdas, generics and polymorphism.
If you don't know all of these concepts, you may have some difficulties modding.

Here are some online resources that will help learning Java:

JetBrains Academy (free online course): https://www.jetbrains.com/academy/
Codeacademy (free online course): https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-java
University of Helsinki (free online course): https://java-programming.mooc.fi/
Basic Java Tutorials: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/
Intorduction to Programming using Java by David J. Eck (free online textbook): http://math.hws.edu/javanotes/

You will need this step first - at least the basics - before you try modding
