Blocks General

[white bobcat]

A 16x16x16 block is just like most of Minecraft blocks. Grass, stone, wood, etc.

[uneven tangle]

No, I mean in this model, how can I make it one block high?

[white bobcat]

One block high? It is already more than one block high

Do you mean two blocks high? Like doors? You need to use two blocks. Place one above the other

[uneven tangle]

no

What I want is to make the block figure equal to one block in height (y-axis).

[white bobcat]

The green cube is a 16x16x16 cube. Compare it with yours

[uneven tangle]

I want the height of the object to be the same as the height of this green cube

[white bobcat]

Then move and resize the pertinent cubes in your geometry to do so

Why are you using so many bones for this?

[uneven tangle]

How is that?
I don't know about models, so explain more to me

[white bobcat]

I also don’t know about holograms lol

Is not relevant to this

Do you understand your geometry?

[uneven tangle]

Because I modified it over and over again thinking that this was the solution

[uneven tangle]

sorry, I didn't mean the hologram, I meant the models

[uneven tangle]

on 😅
Because I didn't make it

[white bobcat]

I recommend you understanding models, maybe check some blockbench guides

[uneven tangle]

But are there any explanations for that?
Not on YouTube! But on some site?

[gritty gyro]

is there a way to have unlimited blocks in a slot in survival/adventure without it being something like replaceitem? (replaceitem is glitchy when placing blocks especially for non-owners of worlds) + without using items

[sacred fjord]

You can use /give to give the player the block, to prevent him from taking multiple blocks you can do it like this:

execute as @a at @s if entity @s[hasitem={item=diamond_block,location=slot.weapon.mainhand,quantity=..60}] unless entity @s[hasitem={item=diamond_block,location=slot.inventory,quantity=..60}] unless entity @s[hasitem={item=diamond_block,location=slot.hotbar,quantity=..60}] run give @s diamond_block 1

This command gives the player 1 diamond block if he has less than 60 diamond blocks in his hand.

[gritty gyro]

the problem i think is that when non-owners place a lot of blocks while the blocks are being refilled back into their slot, the block placing is glitchy, and blocks sometimes dont place when they should be, but imma definitely use something like this for the time being for sure, thanks anyways

[sacred fjord]

You can try changing the range, for example instead of ..60 use ..30

[gritty gyro]

yes, normally what i'd do for the time being is make it detect when there's only 2 blocks left

but ofc it still has the same problem just much more rarely

[sacred fjord]

But if there are no blocks the command stops, you would have to detect when there are no blocks so the player receives the block again.

[gritty gyro]

yea that's when replaceitem works (in my situation)

[sacred fjord]

In this case /give is better, as /replaceitem can somehow delete other items that are in the inventory

[gritty gyro]

not necessarily when you use keep in the replaceitem command

[sacred fjord]

It could be, but I don't know if it would work even with a delay, since the player doesn't own the world...

[gritty gyro]

from what i've seen it works fine but i wouldnt be surprised if there was a way to make items disappear because bedrock

[zinc wyvern]

or you can just simply do this
execute as @a[hasitem={item=dirt,quantity=..32}] run give @s dirt 32

you can also add another hasitem or tagcomponent to it if you want it to give you dirt only under certain conditions

[winter elk]

Woah @zinc wyvern that scoreboard looks really cool! How did you do all of that? I made a scoreboard for the sidebar that represented player time but it wasn't nearly as neat and detailed as what you got there😁

[zinc wyvern]

i can send you the command if you want

it also requires a resource pack to put the scoreboard on the right side

here

[winter elk]

Oh that would be so awesome!!! Yes please as would love to learn how you did that ❤️

[zinc wyvern]

this pack has the scoreboard on it

and a cps counter

lemme send u the command

[winter elk]

Nice 👍

[zinc wyvern]

the actual command itself was a youtube video

its /titleraw

the design is my own

execute as @a run titleraw @s title {"rawtext":[{"text":"\n §3§lNeptune §bKitPvP §f[S4] \n\n Personal Stats§r\n - §3User:§f "},{"selector":"@s"},{"text":"\n - §bMoney:§f "},{"score":{"name":"@s","objective":"money"}},{"text":"\n - §3Warns:§f "},{"score":{"name":"@s","objective":"warns"}},{"text":"/5\n - §bTime:§f "},{"score":{"name":"@s","objective":"h"}},{"text":"h "},{"score":{"name":"@s","objective":"m"}},{"text":"m "},{"score":{"name":"@s","objective":"s"}},{"text":"s\n\n §lCombat Stats§r\n - §3Kills:§f "},{"score":{"name":"@s","objective":"kills"}},{"text":"\n - §bKillstreak: §f"},{"score":{"name":"@s","objective":"ks"}},{"text":"\n - §3Deaths:§f "},{"score":{"name":"@s","objective":"deaths"}},{"text":"\n - §bCPS: §f"},{"score":{"name":"@s","objective":"cps"}},{"text":"\n\n §lServer Stats§r\n - §3Discord:§f A7hj9C8uG6\n - §bMembers: §f"},{"score":{"name":"@e[name=members]","objective":"members"}},{"text":"\n - §3Online: §f"},{"score":{"name":"@e[name=members]","objective":"online"}},{"text":"\n - §bOwner: §fdiablo folds\n §f- §3Cashapp: §f$MCxGod"}]}

i can help you make one if you want

[winter elk]

Oh wait, I think I have seen your video before, it was a pvp kill scoreboard right?

With ranks or something different?

[zinc wyvern]

i had ranks on it before

[winter elk]

I think I tried to follow it if it is the one I was thinking, but for some reason I couldn't get it to work on Android

[zinc wyvern]

ranks?

chat ranks

like

[Member] <diablo folds> hi

that

[winter elk]

Nah maybe it was different, let me search for your video real quick

[zinc wyvern]

i dont have a video up of it

i thought you were talking about something else

if you play realms often you might know me

im a bit infamous in it

i had a realm with over 7000 members on it before

my current one is a little new and it already has almost 1700

[winter elk]

Yep you are right it was a different person 😅Got to excited sorry

[zinc wyvern]

lol

[winter elk]

Lol

[zinc wyvern]

i sent you the pack if u scroll up

this how my mine turned out

[winter elk]

That's cool about the realm and thanks so much for the pack, I am totally gonna try it out

That looks peaceful

[zinc wyvern]

yeah

[winter elk]

I like how the ores are highlighted

[zinc wyvern]

yeah its a good pack

wanna see spawn and pvp

[winter elk]

Sure

[zinc wyvern]

i been working on pvp for a few weeks now

like 2

[winter elk]

Nice 👍

[zinc wyvern]

this was the old pvp

[winter elk]

Woah, that's a lot of work and it looks really nice too 😁 Is the purple glass custom? Or vanilla? In image 2

[zinc wyvern]

the purple glass is just stained glass

the texturepack is good

ill send you it

its not saved globally

one sec

[winter elk]

Thank you, yeah that would be cool! I like the look of the glass

You are very kind 😊

[winter elk]

Thanks a lot 👍 I was looking through your addon and there is a ton there, you did a great job and a lot of work. How long did it take you to work all of it out? The scoreboard stuff on the sidebar like that

[zinc wyvern]

ive been working on this realm on and off for a few months now

ive had it closed for a few days now i been working on a new season independently without distractions because i work better like that

probably like 70 hours total

theres more than just spawn and pvp and mines theres a lot of commands and stuff going on behind the scenes

[winter elk]

That's wonderful, you can tell that it means a lot to you, good job 👍 Now when you say realm, are talking a 10 player realm through marketplace or like a server?

[zinc wyvern]

its just a realm

most my playerbase is on console so switching to servers is gonna be a pain

also servers are more confusing and realms are just easier i like the simplicity of it even if it lacks some things that servers have

[zinc wyvern]

10 player realm

ima go cya

[winter elk]

Gotcha see ya, thanks again 😃

[haughty compass]

Anyone randomly falling through custom blocks?

[mellow carbon]

more context needed.
e.g. Verison (latest beta/preview or latest stable)

[white bobcat]

no

[haughty compass]

Latest stable

[haughty compass]

Could you by chance tell me what I'm doing wrong here then? It's pretty simple concept so. Maybe i'm just crazy. https://youtu.be/i1ZmUsOQ3hU

[white bobcat]

Can you send the collision box component?

Will give it a look when I get back home 👍

[haughty compass]

    "minecraft:collision_box": {
        "origin": [
            -8,
            0,
            -8
        ],
        "size": [
            8,
            16,
            8
        ]
    }
}```

[wet harness]

I made a custom block that is hard to see (it is completely black with no face dimming or ambient occlusion). Building with the block is challenging as it has no visible depth or volume, so I would like to change its texture if the player is holding the block or in creative. Is there any simple way of implementing this?

[white bobcat]

Can you send your block code? @haughty compass

[white bobcat]

You can do it within the block behavior, but it’ll be applied globally. Your other solution which can be client-specific is using particles.

[wet harness]

I am alright with it being applied globally, what do I need to do for that solution?

[white bobcat]

That's the geometry

[white bobcat]

Use minecraft:queued_ticking to run an event, which will run a command that checks for near players with a specific item, in a specific slot or location. Do that using execute and hasitem. Then run a /setblock to change the block state, read the block state in your permutations field and change the texture using minecraft:material_instances

[wet harness]

Thank you!

[haughty compass]

lol

[white bobcat]

You sent the same thing

[haughty compass]

Did I do it wrong?

[mellow carbon]

you're using old name of it's childs for flammable component

"minecraft:flammable": {
  "destroy_chance_modifier": 2, // burn_odds (integer)
  "catch_chance_modifier": 8 // flame_odds (ineteger)
}

[haughty compass]

Thanks. But no content logs or errors because of it. Why would this cause collision to randomly fail?

[white bobcat]

Minecraft probably

[mellow carbon]

probably bcz your blocks collision is 8x16x8 and having those blocks side by side creates a 16x16 gap in between which can cause the player to go through it

[haughty compass]

They are 16x16x16.

Just like the Docs says they should be.

[haughty compass]

So you don't see anything wrong? You think this is a bug, or did I do something wrong?

[queen warren]

Can someone give me a sample file to create a general block?

[mellow carbon]

your block collision is 16x16x16?

in your code it's 8x16x8

[haughty compass]

#1067876948858118185 message

[mellow carbon]

replace 8 with 16

did that fixes your block @haughty compass ?

[haughty compass]

I think so. For some reason I read the ms docs as offset plus range.

[mellow carbon]

yeah

8x16x8 blocks placed side by side creates a 1 block gap in between

[haughty compass]

my brain struggles with this for some reason. I understand center and offset but the size doesn't make sense whil origin+size crap

[mellow carbon]

that was the reason

[mellow carbon]

8x16x8 is from center of the model

[haughty compass]

It says size must be in the range of -8,0,-8 tp 8,16,8.

So how can I use a value of 16,16,16

[mellow carbon]

you start extending the origin from -8,0,-8

and then extend it all the way to 16x16x16

[haughty compass]

I wonder how many other people will struggle with this.

[mellow carbon]

see the x,y,z at the top

that's the value

@haughty compass

[haughty compass]

I get the logic. I don't like how to reads.

[red sky]

If your gonna give someone a example block don't use 1.16.100

Use latest format

Thank you very much

[woven robin]

hi there, what is the texture used by the end portal? I wanted to create a block with this texture but couldnt find, it seems to no be a flipbook texture, any idea?

[white bobcat]

Check blocks.json in the vanilla packs. Iirc it is end_portal

Note that it won’t be animated in your custom block

[nova wolf]

end_portal.png

[haughty compass]

My vanilla Grass blocks are really dark. I know it's not the texture. I'm messed with the overlay and other blocks.json alot. Is there a default gamma on the vanilla blocks that brightens them?

[woven robin]

so the animation of it is hardcoded?

[white bobcat]

I think so, yes

[wind hedge]

Just to be sure it's not possible to change a vanilla block's geometry right ?

[vestal marsh]

Yep, you can use blockshapes but that only utilizes vanilla geometry

[sand pulsar]

Who can teach me to create blocks from the 0 cause I'm stupid in personal chat

[white bobcat]

The bedrock wiki

You can't rotate blocks if the texture is defined in blocks.json?

[vestal marsh]

Correct

[white bobcat]

Awesome

Well, custom geo time.

[chilly bolt]

geo model for carpet & signs?

[white bobcat]

You have to make them yourself

[chilly bolt]

so no templates like other blocks, i saw one wood set i think last time.

[white bobcat]

You can try and find one at #1072983602821861426

to make a block not drop a loot, i need to make a loot that drops air? or is there a component?

how to make a block have like different faces texute like grass

[neat summit]

Why do I get Failed to find material for ''. Did you forget to add the '*' material instance? even though I assigned the m.a? It worked before .50.

[white bobcat]

You have to use the wildcard. It will work with no issues if you don’t include it, but to get rid of the content log error you must have it.

[white bobcat]

[neat summit]

i don't understand. My block refuses to use 2 textures for each bone too

it defaults to use 1 texture for 2 bones and not 1 each

[white bobcat]

Are you specifying the correct bone?

[neat summit]

worked in .40, broke in .50

fixing that error might fix this too

but what is a wildcard

[white bobcat]

The *

[neat summit]

I already use it for the base block texture....

[white bobcat]

You have to use it on every material instance component in your block

[neat summit]

i only have 1 material instance component

[white bobcat]

Huh? Show the component then

[neat summit]

I was looking at the wrong block -_-

sorry

but yea same things happens

even if I did the thing\

[white bobcat]

You sure every material instance in your block has the wildcard?

[red sky]

I don't understand how you guys always have issues with material instances. Always works perfect for me

[vestal marsh]

Minor spelling mistakes

[icy fox]

material instances is in Json block bc i use Bridge software

[karmic scarab]

is random_ticking working for anyone?

[white bobcat]

That’s correct

How do faling blocks work? Can I make a custom block fall?

[sacred fjord]

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1179265348697067581

[haughty compass]

I need a stable solution. How close is it to being stable? Maybe I'll wait

[sacred fjord]

It works without experiments, but loot drops twice

[haughty compass]

Great I'll check it out

[haughty compass]

This is really cool. But I need a real block to fall. Not an entity. I can't make fake entities for hundreds of blocks.

[sacred fjord]

The entity only appears when the block falls, this is the same method used by sand and gravel. I don't think it's possible to make a block fall

[haughty compass]

hmm, thats lame.

[sacred fjord]

But I got confused, it actually needs holiday creator features, just not upcoming_creator_features. I used run_command to detect an empty block below it

[haughty compass]

A component that did this seamlessly would sure be nice.

[white bobcat]

I mean, you can do it without entities & experimental

Hard? No. Tedious? Yes.

[red sky]

Here's what I think

If it's some stupid system that uses a ton of entities then don't add it - Nobody/ihategravel

Oh. Well, I don’t really know what animation that block has so can’t answer till I get home

Check the wiki

[novel hedge]

Whatever

You guys never really help

[white bobcat]

If you simply check the wiki you would see a page that tells you exactly how to have log-like rotation. I encourage you to independently explore the available resources, as the community members may not readily provide solutions. Additionally, note that a log-like block file has been shared in a previous message by myself, emphasizing the importance of reviewing prior discussions. Assistance is most effective when there is a willingness to accept help from the community.

[nova wolf]

whoops. I think I made Bauxite too easy to form xD

It's supposed to form sometimes instead of granite, diorite and andesite xD

But irl, bauxite mainly forms in granite, so I might make it just spawn in granite

What are the tags for deepslate? I need the tag so my pickaxes can mine the deepslate variants

I'm guessing it's just minecraft:deepslate?

[white bobcat]

I don’t think it has a tag

[nova wolf]

oof

oh well, I made my copper pickaxe file near 300 rows now lmao

It's my biggest file yet

And I expect when I try to make connectable glass in the future that my biggest file will be near 500 lines then

[nova wolf]

And this will be bigger when I keep adding more ores and blocks

ahh, I just found tags for some of the stuff I can replace instead of the blocks

I can shorten the file a lot, which any bit helps with lag

If you are in the process of making custom tools you should consider making them with scripting

I'd rather not use material_instance after finding out about unit_cube. Especially with the shadow now gone

Oh okay!

[mint frost]

@white bobcat When you were making your glass, have you found any other issues related to "blend" ? I'm having it basically cut off parts of my blocks textures

[white bobcat]

I did not, other than the common walking around issue where the texture starts having issues

And that happened because of the geometry rather than the render mode

[mint frost]

that sucks then, I'm guessing with normal glass then you'd have no issues

[white bobcat]

Which is your issue?

[mint frost]

well this is what the actual back looks like

It's just blending everything

instead of only making the erased parts invisible

[white bobcat]

Why don’t you try with alpha_test

[mint frost]

That's what I had at first

actually, I'm not even sure why I switched to blend

thought it was needed lol

[white bobcat]

Doesn’t seems like you need it if that’s the whole model

blend will cause you more issues

[mint frost]

ahh okay then, don't know why I wanted to use it

[white bobcat]

Yeah I’d say you can switch back

[mint frost]

I think I wanted to see if there was a way to set actual "opacity" on textures

so you can see through stuff and make a layering effect

[white bobcat]

layering effect?

Like the stained glass?

I don’t see how you would create that effect with your specific model but that would require of blend

[nova wolf]

If I add a tag in the permutation, will the tag be addded to the block?

[desert vector]

yes

[nova wolf]

oki, thank you

[jagged gale]

is rotation in transformation still bound to multiples of 90

[white bobcat]

Yes

[jagged gale]

... so I have to use bone visibility 😑

[white bobcat]

@wooden whale Do block traits count for the permutations limit? I’m unsure of what is ideal to make blocks that work as pillars(logs, for example), if block states of block traits. I guess it all depends on this answer 😅

[red sky]

>= 1

[quaint lion]

Is there a none expiremental way to have a timer on a block where it despawns the block after X amount of time, or what X block state is True maybe?

[white bobcat]

You use commands 🤷‍♂️

[lost trellis]

detect player block placing using scripts -> spawn entity at block.location -> let entity handle the ticking

^ very bad and non-performant strat but hey it should work

[quaint lion]

I would be dealing with 884 blocks per tick.

I';m not sure your method would work, but the tracking of each block might in theory.

[nova wolf]

permutations?

[white bobcat]

I would use commands instead of that, is better. The timer would just work if the player is around.. which is just what minecraft:queued_ticking does.

[marble pumice]

Is it possible to render an item on block that is stocked in a block?

like there is a block that contains an inventory

in this inventory you have a iron ingot, and this iron ingot is shown on the block texture

[white bobcat]

I don't quite understand your question. Like Java glass panes?

If so, you'll want to create a custom item that places your custom block using minecraft:block_placer

[clear bobcat]

They meant like a pot but transparent. So, whatever you put in it is visible from outside.

[white bobcat]

I do not know how the pot works but I think it is just change the texture whenever you interact with it with a specific item?

If so, you can do so with using minecraft:on_interact with q.is_item_name_any to detect the specific item. Make it change a block state value in the block and read said block state within the permutations. In the permutations field, add the minecraft:material_instance to change the texture.

[white bobcat]

In order to have things like this to be fixed, we need the default state for minecraft:block_face block trait to be up and not down

[vestal marsh]

Logically all blocks are down

[white bobcat]

What about blocks like lightning rods

logs, quartz pillars, basalt

[vestal marsh]

When you setblock they all face down, slabs

[white bobcat]

really?

I see

What do they do to render it like that on hand and invo?

[vestal marsh]

No idea

[white bobcat]

Why do we still don't have the display field or the rotation mode for faces in geos 😭

I want to fix the display for my lightning rod but really can't unless I use extra block states only to fix that, which in my opinion is nor worth it.

[cerulean raft]

Im having trouble getting my addon blocks to show up in Minecraft. I am using a Chromebook to play and design my blocks. Ive followed the tutorial on the bedrock wiki, the microsoft minecraft page, and on the main minecraft page all with no luck. I designed the block in blockbench and have tried both using the blockbench block wizard and uploading the block design to Visual Studio. VS told me that my json code was good and I havent been able to find much more information on troubleshooting. Im open to any and all ideas.

[white bobcat]

Enable the content logs in Minecraft and read them

[cerulean raft]

the block pack isnt showing up in the settings

[white bobcat]

Then the problem is on your behavior or resource pack. Are you receiving any errors when importing it? Where is it located?

[cerulean raft]

Im not sure what you mean

[white bobcat]

How are you putting your addon in the game?

[cerulean raft]

Ive got the addon file saved to my computer within the com.mojang folder

[white bobcat]

Where specifically? dev folders?

[cerulean raft]

its in development_resource_packs

[white bobcat]

May you show a screenshot on how the pack structure looks?

Give a look to this page https://wiki.bedrock.dev/guide/troubleshooting.html

You define those as block states. In case you are reffering to vanilla blocks

                }
            },``` i have a block that is meant to change texture each time the timer ends. (I have multiple permutations im just showing one of them) this is my event ```"agentt:shield_block_phase_1": {

                    ]
                }
            },```

my block isnt changing texture and only playing the sound

[white bobcat]

Is there any other permutation that searches for the same value of that property and also has a material_instance component?

[minor arrow]

should i send all my permutations?

[white bobcat]

You can check 🤷‍♂️

[minor arrow]

all of my permutations have different value

would all of them having a material instance for a different texture effect it?

[white bobcat]

Only if any of them have a repeated value

[minor arrow]

hmm

what about the render method

would that change much?

[white bobcat]

That should not affect in anything the problem you are facing

[minor arrow]

am i setting like the block property wrong?

[white bobcat]

You are not

[oak ledge]

So what my error?

@white bobcat

[white bobcat]

Your error were the values in q.block_face and missing spaces that made the condition syntax invalid.

[oak ledge]

Oh okay but you send this code is correct? @white bobcat

And thanks when I try and it works. I'll tell you if work

[white bobcat]

The code I provided should be correct, yes. From my template, the only things you want to change on the permutations is the item.

[oak ledge]

Well it work but...

[white bobcat]

Is your texture a full block?

[oak ledge]

Yes

[white bobcat]

Are you sure? It should stop using the geometry after you interact with a slab, with another slab.

Can you try it with the stone texture please?

[oak ledge]

Yes, you want I send my addon to you by dm and you can check and try it too if you want it, @white bobcat

@white bobcat I dm you and you just check and try it

[white bobcat]

I'd prefer to help you fix it

It should not fail

[white bobcat]

My slab template is at https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1191215197168336996, try it out.

[oak ledge]

@white bobcat

[white bobcat]

I am guessing that your texture is half a block.

You can re-write your slabs only changing what I mentioned from my template.

[oak ledge]

Yeah, I know that because I was there to download your templates

[atomic marsh]

Would doing face culling permutation absolutely destroy overhead?

[white bobcat]

What?

[atomic marsh]

Nvm. I don't think its possibly anyways

[white bobcat]

Apply face culling to blocks?

[atomic marsh]

Yeh. Though I realized custom models abstract models into cubes based on position and size.

[white bobcat]

You can with minecraft:unit_cube or with a custom geo if you need to use transparent/semi transparent textures.

You can see the geo method in my ice template, see https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1191215197168336996

[atomic marsh]

EESH. like that. Guess it isn't possible with what I was thinking.

I actually wonder if mc takes into account 0 thickness and just draws one face in the render pipeline instead of 4 or 2.

[white bobcat]

Custom geos simply doesn't have face culling 😔

[atomic marsh]

MOJANG, GIVE US FACE CULLING

[white bobcat]

minecraft:face_culling says to keep wishing 😔

I only use the method I made for the ice for transparent/ semi-transparent textures that requires it though, like ice. Because that's more of a visual face culling. The concept of improving performance is being lost with it, without a doubt.

[atomic marsh]

iffy

[atomic marsh]

I might add that component to my engine :]

[nova wolf]

That would be amazing

[oak ledge]

I need to know, can I change geometry by using states, commands (which after I add state in my block file), collision and selection boxes, and when I add command ("/execute if block .... ) and it changes geometry when it detects another block in each side of the block itself?

[oak ledge]

It worked but it failed in place a block

[white bobcat]

You can. You have to run the commands on each side of the block

[crude acorn]

I want the colormap to be similar to the top one

[white bobcat]

I’m pretty sure that is not possible to check in which biome the block is and change the texture based on that

But could be wrong on this, as I don’t deal with this type of blocks for a while.

[shrewd storm]

To me it looks like it has a shadow. Like when nor.al blocks are placed generally the sides are dimmer due to a lighting thing. It can be toggled in blockbench just can't remember what what it is right off

[nova wolf]

You could use a query.has_biome_tag_any or something like that

maybe

[neat summit]

they use .tga textures to change colors based on the biome.

[ebon laurel]

I believe that that requires an entity

[crude acorn]

Does that work for the sides of the dirt blocks too?

[neat summit]

no

it's a really complicated file format in Minecraft, and I am not sure if any documentation exists for it

[white bobcat]

Can it be used in custom blocks at all?

Last time I tried you simply couldn't but that was a long time ago

[neat summit]

last time I tried it, it did not work, but I may have done it wrong

I can try again, and do it properly

will keep you posted

[white bobcat]

Thanks!

[neat summit]

What I see looking at vanilla grass, they seem to use overlay color, but it is not tied to a biome from what I can tell.

[white bobcat]

Yeah it looks like it

[neat summit]

It does work, but does not change color based on the biome

[white bobcat]

Yup, same results I had

[neat summit]

would be cool to use molang inside the texture json to check for biome and change texture or something

[white bobcat]

Indeed, really sad this is a feature we can't use

soooo i got it for the most part the codes a jumbled mess but i get no errors besides the down rotations on 2 directions i need to face the opposite direction to place the facing direction for some reason

[neat summit]

Oh, I set the custom block texture to tall grass and the texture didn't change color depending on biome, so we can all say it isn't supported for custom blocks.

[white bobcat]

That is very unfortunate

[nova wolf]

Would it be better for optimisation if I were to make a regular block and made many textures for like a lava tank,

Would it be better for optimisation if I were to make a custom geo block with 16 different bones that appear when filling the tank?

You can just use 5 geometries, The filling geometry can just be a single cube scaled by animation.

to summon the entity

And honestly, I don’t see how would 5 geometries be better than one with the bones needed.

the entity models are not usable

that is, you made models and animations in betEnd manually?

yup

I might be missing something obvious, but I'm trying to make a wood block that regenerates... When mined it changes states instead of actually breaking and becomes invisible, then after some time it clears the state so it reappears.

I've copied the wiki log for the most part but added some custom logic, and I thought these permutations would be enough, but for some reason it still becomes an update block when it's mined and then turns back to wood later.

The geo file does exist, as I use it for other blocks

[balmy moss]

It's probably cause the material instances component is missing in the mined permutation. Maybe try making the material instances component a default component instead of storing inside just one permutation?

[junior flame]

I tried moving material instances outside of permutations but it still had the same issue

I'll fiddle with it a little more when I get home

[nova wolf]

It might be because you don't have render_method

Or is it something to be added to a code in behaviour packs or resource packs. Pls help. Ill put all the things affiliated with the block down below, including animation.

Hi there, I'm new to this whole 3d modeling and minecraft addon making but I want to make some stuff for my Minecraft friends. I've been struggling for the past 3 hours trying to figure out how to get a crafting recipe for a custom block working. I already created a custom bonsai block but it's useless of no one can craft it in survival. Does anyone know how to do it? My crafting file should be ok. I used that json generator for custom recipes and matched the namespace id thing in it but it doesn't even show in the survival recipe book let alone actually craft.

That's the bonsai 🙂

I think I need to define the id or smth but I haven't been able to figure out how. I've tried to add it in the component section but idk if that's even where I'm supposed to do it

[ebon laurel]

You shouldn't need to do anything special with the block to make it craftable. Can you send your recipe file?

[stiff rampart]

I will re assemble and send the pack here when I get home. The files are in pieces now cuz I kept trying to figure out what went wrong.

[stiff rampart]

Thanks for helping dude

[ebon laurel]

I only need the recipe file, not the whole pack. And ofc, go ahead and ping me when the files back together!

[stiff rampart]

Also I'll send the whole thing cuz json is completely new syntax and I dunno if it works properly. I haven't spent enough time learning that yet.

[full pagoda]

Can we have custom block that is bigger than 16 * 16 *16 ?

[vestal marsh]

Model wise? Yes. Hitbox wise? No

[full pagoda]

even with transform?

[vestal marsh]

Correct

[stiff rampart]

kk I just ended up redoing it with the blockbench exported mcaddon folder by adding the recipe in after. This was basically what I had before. I dunno, is it like a file placement issue?

heres the actual recipe one for ease

{
    "format_version": "1.12",
    "minecraft:recipe_shaped": {
        "description": {
            "identifier": "nadhorion:bonsai"
        },
        "tags": [
            "crafting_table"
        ],
        "pattern": [
            "##",
            "F "
        ],
        "key": {
            "#": {
                "item": "minecraft:sapling"
            },
            "F": {
                "item": "minecraft:flower_pot"
            }
        },
        "result": {
            "item": "nadhorion:bonsai",
            "count": 1
        }
    }
}

[stiff rampart]

this is the placement

[vestal marsh]

You need the unlock key iirc

[desert vector]

recipes should be inside a recipes folder

[stiff rampart]

How should I do that? I tried looking online but I dont seen anything related

[stiff rampart]

ok. I will thanks

[ebon laurel]

You add it in the recipe. Here's a page with info on it: https://wiki.bedrock.dev/loot/recipes.html#recipe-unlocking-1

[stiff rampart]

I tried adding it in but it keeps telling me that it expected an object

[stiff rampart]

can you show me an example? I havent learned json syntax well so I keep having issues trying to copy it in

[stiff rampart]

like this?

{
    "format_version": "1.12",
    "minecraft:recipe_shaped": {
        "description": {
            "identifier": "nadhorion:bonsai"
        },
        "tags": [
            "crafting_table"
        ],
        "pattern": [
            "##",
            "F "
        ],
        "key": {
            "#": {
                "item": "minecraft:sapling"
            },
            "F": {
                "item": "minecraft:flower_pot"
            }
        },
        "result": {
            "item": "nadhorion:bonsai",
            "count": 1
        }
    }
    
},

{

"unlock": [
    {
        "item": "_steel"
    },
    {
        "item": "minecraft:wool",
        "data":  3
    },
    {
        "context": "PlayerInWater"
    }
]

}

[ebon laurel]

Here you go: ```json
{
"format_version": "1.12",
"minecraft:recipe_shaped": {
"description": {
"identifier": "nadhorion:bonsai"
},
"tags": [
"crafting_table"
],
"pattern": [
"##",
"F "
],
"key": {
"#": {
"item": "minecraft:sapling"
},
"F": {
"item": "minecraft:flower_pot"
}
},
"result": {
"item": "nadhorion:bonsai",
"count": 1
},
"unlock": [
{
"item": "<namespace>:steel"
},
{
"item": "minecraft:wool",
"data": 3
},
{
"context": "PlayerInWater"
}
]

}

}```

Note that steel will need a namespace for it to work though, so replace <namespace> with your namespace

[stiff rampart]

Woahh thank u. What is steel?

[ebon laurel]

I'm not sure, it's what you had in the unlock conditions though so I assumed you wanted it to unlock when you have steel in your inventory

[stiff rampart]

Is there a way to unlock it automatically? I don't really have any conditions in mind. Maybe getting a block of dirt if I have to

and those conditions were already in the wiki example and I thought they were like defaults lol

OMG IT WORKEDDD I LOVE UUU waitt---

Thanks

i just did minecraft:dirt as an unlocker.

im surprised that i couldnt find it written anywhere that I needed this to get crafting working

[sacred fjord]

I know you already got it, but you can use this:

"unlock": [
  {
    "context": "AlwaysUnlocked"
  }
]

[stiff rampart]

howww do u find this stuff. Im like scouring documentation and I find nothinggg. Amazing

[sacred fjord]

I found this in the crafting table recipe

[stiff rampart]

I tried doing this always unlocked thing on a new project but it doesnt work. The object is a custom helmet and it appears in the game fine but it just wont craft. ```json

{
"format_version": "1.12",
"minecraft:recipe_shapeless": {
"description": {
"identifier": "nadhorion:mushy"
},
"tags": [
"crafting_table"
],
"ingredients": [
{
"item": "minecraft:red_mushroom"
},
{
"item": "minecraft:leather_helmet"
},
{
"item": "minecraft:bone_meal"
}
],
"result": {
"item": "nadhorion:mushy",
"count": 1
},
"unlock": [
{
"context": "AlwaysUnlocked"
}
]
}
}

can u see anything wrong?

how am I supposed to indentify the item?

I think that it might be the cause as I cant see any other issues

[sacred fjord]

Have you tried using format version 1.20.10?

[stiff rampart]

I tried 1.20.30 before

I changed it in the two manifests and the recipe file

but it didnt wanna work ig

this my entire project. I probably messed up references/id's or versions. I cant tell what went wrong

is it supposed to say item twice like that?

[sacred fjord]

I just tried, I received a message saying that the context is invalid, despite it being used in the crafting table recipe. The recipe I created doesn't appear in the book but I managed to create it anyway.

[sacred fjord]

Remove item. from your item identifier, this is not necessary

[stiff rampart]

YOOOOO just as u said that I was actually staring at that exact thing. It worksss. I never need the "item." at least for this simple stuff right?

seee

u can use it if u want btw. i mean anyone can whos here but u have my special permission lol

so i see that usually my issues are with identifiers. I will be more careful with tha

a hundred thanks again GST dude

[stiff rampart]

oh lol I forgot to ping

[sacred fjord]

You must always use the full identifier

[stiff rampart]

did I not do so here?

oh the item. was redundant but I had to add it everywhere if I kept it?

[sacred fjord]

item. it was part of your item's identifier, so it should also be included

[stiff rampart]

Ok I get it now. I know some JavaScript so my brain was confused with scope and dot operators lol. Idk if u know what I mean but yeah

Thought I could ommit the item. Cuz I was maybe somehow in scope. Idk makes no sense even with the JavaScript knowledge lol

[karmic flame]

For mobspawner thing where box thing was really close to being a full block like a chest

How do I get that

[ebon laurel]

You can't modify the vanilla mob spawner, all vanilla blocks are hard-coded. If it's a custom block you're talking about, you can use the minecraft:geometry to use a custom geometry

[elfin fjord]

Does anyone know how to make custom gravity effected blocks like sand or gravel, I need more colors of Concrete Powder and don't know where to start?

[white bobcat]

You’d use entities for that

[lone matrix]

heelo I have question how to make block entites like chest, bees or decorated pot

@vestal marsh

[turbid veldt]

Do not ping random people

Do not ping random people for help or otherwise.

Random pings are never good ; No one is obligated to help you at random.

Feb 5, 2024, 1:02 PM

[ebon laurel]

@lone matrix read the message above this. As for your question, you can't make a block entity. You'd need to spawn an entity whenever you place your block in order to mimic one, and kill it when you break your block

[floral light]

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1204164385958793277

can someone come and help me?

[white bobcat]

Please don't cross post your questions. Be patient

[floral light]

someone how to deactivate that a block can be pushed with a piston

[unborn jetty]

anyone know if it's possible to edit vanilla block's event triggers?

I want to stop farmland from being trampled

any way to do that or are the blocks hard coded in mc

[white bobcat]

Not possible

[unborn jetty]

damn

apparently someones done it before

probably a custom block though

[novel mantle]

Can you set the minecraft:cardinal_direction block trait with set_block_state or is it only set on placement?

[hoary basin]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[unkempt creek]

What's the latest format version for blocks?

[nova wolf]

1.20.60

make sure your target version is also 1.20.60

[unkempt creek]

Alright, thanks.

Why geometry.full_block says not valid?

"minecraft:geometry.full_block": {}

What's the correct format?

[nova wolf]

it's not it's own component

it's part of "minecraft:geometry"

[unkempt creek]

Ahh

Alright, thanks.

[woven robin]

hi there, how can I query if the neighbor block is solid? is it possible?

[white bobcat]

How can I fix this shadow?

[white bobcat]

Could someone explain me why adding this selection box:

"minecraft:selection_box": {
                    "origin": [3.5, 3, -2.5],
                    "size": [5, 10, 5]
                }

Gives this error?

[Blocks][error]-block_definitions | blocks/torch.json | kai:torch | components | minecraft:selection_box: origin with added size can't be below (-8, 0, -8) and can't be more than (8, 16, 8)

Oh I see, interesting. It seems that that extra .5 can't be added in the origin but the size

@mint frost I think you experienced a similar issue before?

If so, there you go the fix

[mint frost]

huh

[white bobcat]

wha

[mint frost]

only thing I had asked was why the selection box cannot extend -1 in they direction to account for farmland

[white bobcat]

oh lol, mb then

[boreal stag]

Hello! is there a way of overriding a block with another block? (like air or water?)

[ebon laurel]

Do you mean in world generation, or whenever a player places a block?

For placing blocks, you can use the script api, as i believe there's an event for placing blocks in it

I'm not sure what the most optimized way would be for world generation, but you can probably do a search in #1067869232395735130

[unkempt creek]

Can't do that in query, but you can check if block is solid through script API using .isSolid property

[unkempt creek]

Replace command?

[boreal stag]

no, like for example: when you rightclick inside water it overrides the block with the block /item that you have in your hand. like tall grass . if you are inside water you can place the block inside it.
Making this possible is the thing that separates actual fluids from fake fluids (current fake fluids are annoying to deal with since the only block that is possible to break is the source. at least in the tutorials, tho i havent encountered this problem fixed)

[ebon laurel]

You could maybe use a block interaction event in scripts to replace it with what the player's holding. The difficulty would be in how it handles interacting with it when holding an item, which I have no idea what would happen

[boreal stag]

yeah im going that road, but i cant find the way to get te item out ofo the player to even do something

[ebon laurel]

It seems like playerInteractWithBlockAfterEvent has a variable that stores the item stack the players holding

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/minecraft/server/playerinteractwithblockafterevent?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[scenic citrus]

My block model is too big, how can I override that?

[vestal marsh]

You cannot

[scenic citrus]

Okay so how do I implement a mob head as a block?

[vestal marsh]

Could you elaborate?

[scenic citrus]

I have a custom entity where the player can obtain its head. However the model of the head is too big to be made into a block.

@vestal marsh that enough info?

[vestal marsh]

🤷 Make it smaller

[scenic citrus]

I cant make it similar to the ender dragon head?

[vestal marsh]

Newp

[ebon laurel]

You could spawn an entity with the model whenever you place it, and make the block invisible

Despawn the entity when the block is destroyed

[scenic citrus]

Hmmm 🤔 what would spawn the entity?

[woven robin]

hi there, something has changed to cardinal_direction? my blocks was working fine before the update now all of them is facing the same direction

[ripe loom]

Are you using block traits?

[ebon laurel]

You could use scripts to spawn it

[woven robin]

yes

[white bobcat]

Hey peps! Talked with some of you recently about block events getting transformed into scripting when I suggested my vision of the most viable option to us at #1019692489596215388. I've created a feedback post https://discord.com/channels/1138536747932864532/1206046113887428659, let's all collaborate!

[hoary shadow]

Ehy guys, you who are way more experienced, how do you like script seeds and stuff to work?

[white bobcat]

What?

[hoary shadow]

Like how to make seeds that makes plant and how to make the plant grow you know

[white bobcat]

Oh, I understand now

This page will help you to make that! https://wiki.bedrock.dev/blocks/custom-crops.html

[hoary shadow]

Thankss

Sooo do I start with Seeds or with the crop?

[tame bison]

Does anyone know why my custom blocks keep showing up as pink for xbox players when they join my world?

[ripe loom]

You need both, the seed has a block_placer component that place the crop on the custom farmland. If you don't want to use custom_farmland, just change it with "farmland" in the placement_filter component to use your crops like in vanilla. Edit: feel free to pm me if you need help, I made 15 crops with this template lately

[tame bison]

?

[ripe loom]

I was talking to Dat Alex boi

[tame bison]

I still have a problem

[ripe loom]

Is it a realm ? and if you play on PC, is your addon in your development folder?
I had trouble by the past on realm when player from console were not prompted to download the resource pack(only the BP)

[white bobcat]

With what you want

[leaden valley]

Hey guys

Can you make a custom chest that opens a server form?

Is it possible?

[vestal marsh]

Technically yeah. Just have a block then use ScriptAPI to detect interactiom and open a form

[leaden valley]

Look,
I realized if you opened a chest then you got somehow teleported 20 blocks far away it automatically closes the ui and I want to make the same thing but the exception being a server form

[leaden valley]

So if I did what you just mentioned does it work in that way?

[vestal marsh]

🤷 Ask in #1067535382285135923

[leaden valley]

Ok thx for your time

[zinc wyvern]

@vestal marsh u know why this is not working for me

[turbid veldt]

Please, no screenshots or photos!

Screenshots are hard to read, and photos even more so. This is especially true if you are using bridge or another tree editor, as this format obscures the JSON format.

When some one click with axe to strip a wood will drop a item not giving straight to inventory

how to make a Ore so rare like diamond or netherite ?

[white bobcat]

@west ledge hey, have you tried colormap in custom blocks?

[west ledge]

Does not work

Unless you know something I don’t.

[white bobcat]

nope, just wondering as you recently experimented with blocks

[ripe loom]

I noticed that as well, I mean it's close but not precise.
On the right, the colormap I have set in my block, , and how it looks on an actual map . I dunno if it is a bug tbh, as biome are using specific colors, maybe the colormap component is translated as a specific color range like the biome...

please just ignore the left part of the pic filled with strawberry cakes 😄

At least it is more or less what I want 🙂

[white bobcat]

Is very unfortunate

[pearl peak]

?

[primal roost]

u mean

generate the ore?

do traits contribute to the state limit?

[west ledge]

Yes

yea the feature of the ore

If I'd like to make a crate/chest that you can click to "open," then play an animation and run commands or a UI, should I use a block or entity?

How To Ask Good Questions

Be specific and include relevant details about the question upfront.

• What are you trying to accomplish?
• If you have code, which part is not working?
• What have you already tried?
• Have you searched the Bedrock Wiki?

https://xyproblem.info/

Feb 21, 2024, 3:02 PM

[fallow fiber]

Based on my past experience, the items defined in this JSON should at least appear in the inventory, but they don't.

Sry

*t is block, no items

I modified the tutorial on precise rotation in the wiki, adding a color-switching feature. However, it failed. I suspect the issue lies in the identifiers and bone_visibility within minecraft:geometry.

[nova wolf]

what content log error are you getting?

[fallow fiber]

No, it's just that this JSON-defined block didn't appear in the inventory as expected.

However, where should I obtain the content log? This is my first time hearing about it in Bedrock.

[nova wolf]

in "creator" tab in settings

turn on both

then make a world with your add-on

Does anyone know where I can find the vanilla block models?

[ripe loom]

Into the vanilla texture pack. If you use entity wizard in blockbench, you can just load it from the main menu

[foggy lily]

Thank you

[ripe loom]

No problem 🙂

[red sky]

That's not right

block models are not provided by the vanilla pack.

They are hardcoded.

[vestal marsh]

You can find the block models in the Java vanilla packs

[red sky]

Yes. You have to get the .jar file for your version, copy it somewhere then change the extension to .zip.

Do I need to make a custom item for this block as well so it's properly tagged? I noticed that the item tag format changed in 1.20.50 but I didn't see anything about the block tag format changing too (I've tried both ways though and same result)

[zinc wyvern]

I was trying to make the block spawn structures when the block is broken.

[ebon laurel]

Ok. Is it encrypted or something? As I don't know if minecraft can read that. Another issue with it might be that block events are experimental. I'd recommend switching to scripting anyway, as block events will be removed soon

[zinc wyvern]

Oh okay that no problem

[zinc wyvern]

And I did not know that

[trim crypt]

So i was making a custom leaf block, it has transparent parts in it, I used the alpha test material, it renders the transparent parts as opaque

[white bobcat]

Use blend

[trim crypt]

Blend has backface culling

It makes it look empty

Is there a way to remove that?

[white bobcat]

Alpha test should work fine for that… I don’t see how it’ll make your transparent pixels opaque

[ripe loom]

When you say "in it" you mean literally in it?(like it's not just a 6 faces cubes but inside this cube there's some other textures)

[trim crypt]

Idk

It did

[trim crypt]

Like a regular texture

[trim crypt]

It still rendered as opaque

[ripe loom]

As said Kaiôga blend is what you need to use. I using that for my custom leaves

[white bobcat]

make sure you used alpha_test, without any misspelling

[trim crypt]

Yep

No misspells

[trim crypt]

I know, I used that before, it just doesn't feel right, since it makes the block look empty

[ripe loom]

The problem with alpha test is that there is a shadow at the bottom of the block. Maybe there is one more parameter to use when choosing alpha test to remove this shadow that I don't know

[trim crypt]

Ambient occlusion = false

[ripe loom]

It changes nothing for me

[trim crypt]

That's weird

[ripe loom]

I have that
"minecraft:material_instances": {
"*": {
"texture": "frozen_leaves",
"render_method": "alpha_test",
"ambient_occlusion": false
}
},

[vestal marsh]

I think youre looking for the face culling property

[ripe loom]

like "face_culling":false ?

[vestal marsh]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/reference/content/blockreference/examples/definitions/blockculling?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[ripe loom]

Thank you, It looks like to be a new file? where it needs to be? I bookmark this page and will leave.. my leaves with blend for now 😄

[white bobcat]

Leaves never required culling rules though, just alpha_test

[ripe loom]

Are you able to remove the shadow with alpha_test Kaiôga?

[white bobcat]

I don't know what shadows you are talking about

[ripe loom]

#1067876948858118185 message

With alpha test I have shadows when the leaves are against any other blocks(witth blend setting not, but all the faces are not rendered, still good as it is trees but...)

[white bobcat]

I don't think they will, no

I don't remember where I got my leaves file.. hm

[pearl peak]

q.is_item_name_any('slot.weapon.mainhand', 'bridge:key') && query.max_durability

is that correct guys so i want condition
if the player has key on hand it work and use 1 durability
if the player doesn't have the key on hand nothing work

[vestal marsh]

It needs to be separate events. The block itself cannot set your durability down. This is why I recommend using scripting

[pearl peak]

mhmm

but it's gonna be hard using script...

[ebon laurel]

It might be, but more and more of addons is going to be handled with scripting rather than json as time goes on, so it will be important to learn

[wind hedge]

Does minecraft:transformation's rotation rotate the block model?

[vestal marsh]

It should?

[wind hedge]

Just wanted to check before spending too much time modeling some stairs

[pearl peak]

can u help me ?.

it's about entity

[vestal marsh]

Please stop crossposting and fishing in other channels for help

[pearl peak]

i wanted to ask u for good doc about animation

[fresh falcon]

I have been searching for a long time but a cannot seam to find a way to speed up breaking custom blocks by using a pickaxe. Have i missed something or is the seconds_to_destroy the only property yo use?

[stoic glacier]

i added traits and permutations to my block, it has no custom geo and uses animated texture. I want the block to rotate

[white bobcat]

You cannot. You have to use scripting or make custom tools

[white bobcat]

Check out rotatable blocks and Kaioga's Block Templates if you still need another example of rotatable blocks.

[fresh falcon]

I was afraid that would be the case the only way i think it is possible is by using permutations of the block with different speeds.

[white bobcat]

Yeah, pretty much the only other way

I do not recommend it though, as you don’t really have a way to also count for haste, mining fatigue, or efficiency

[fresh falcon]

Yeah true it has many problems, i asume minecraft will add this feature some time in the future.

[white bobcat]

Ideally

[hollow hemlock]

Been testing a block and haven't been able to find out why it isn't working. Haven't gotten any errors in the code or in the creator logs.

I've been trying to update some old code for a stairs block. It did connect, and face the right way when I last used it (July). The block just doesn't show up in the inventory/game. I've looked at the wiki's, other code, and some bug reports to update some aspects but It just won't add itself.

[hollow hemlock]

My bad, fixed the question

[nova wolf]

aren't states only able to take true/false of integers?

what does your content log say?

[hollow hemlock]

I had it as properties before

[vestal marsh]

Do you have the HCF toggle turned on?

[hollow hemlock]

Nothing

[hollow hemlock]

Yep

Nevermind found it?

[stoic glacier]

I did use it

[stoic glacier]

i am using animated texture for the blcok

block

[white bobcat]

So what is the problem?

[stoic glacier]

its not able to rotate

[unkempt creek]

Does geometry.full_block has bug? Cause it won't able to rotate.

[white bobcat]

Yeah. Is a known bug

[jaunty hedge]

what options are there to make this breaking texture overlay look less..... horrible?

[spiral void]

I think I should have posted here instead of a new thread. Anyways im just curious if its technically possible to override vanilla blocks such as "rails and ladders" with your own shape and texture? I know it's possible in java since I've already done it there but I'm not a bit frustrated since I can't seem to override the bedrock vanilla shape

[nova wolf]

no, not that I know of anyways

[white bobcat]

You can use commands like /fill from entities to replace vanilla blocks with your owns. You can also replace any vanilla structure that can be overridden to re-build it with your own custom blocks.

[tiny stump]

How do I set a state to a specific number?

I tried using math.abs/floor(1) and it doesn't seem to work. tesforblock says " '-' is not a valid number "

[unkempt creek]

What are you trying to do?

[trim crypt]

Does anyone know why custom crafting tables dont show custom recipies?

I alr used recipie unlocking and updated file format

Then i turned off recipie unlocking and still no show

[vestal marsh]

I do believe its a bug

[trim crypt]

ah. Ill check for bug reports then

[jaunty hedge]

is there any way to fix this broken appearance of blocks in your inventory? see how it looks like the layering is all messed up in the hotbar vs the in world block

[vestal marsh]

Iirc you need to reorder your bones in blockbench

[jaunty hedge]

i just threw up in my mouth a little

also ty

[vestal marsh]

XD

[primal roost]

anyone know why that happens?

im just using flipbook textures

[unkempt creek]

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1164286478680064110

[jaunty hedge]

ahhhhhh yeah, ty

The way you'd fix it is to move the cubes that should be showing up at the front to the bottom of the list of cubes in block bench.
sounds about right

[unkempt creek]

Yes, that work with me.

[unkempt creek]

My speculation is, there's some hidden faces of bones that doesn't have texture. Causing it to appear at some angles.

[jaunty hedge]

at first this didnt seem to work, but i figured it out, theres more nuance to it, you cannot use separate groups, you must drag all your bones into a common used group, once i did that i finally started getting changes happening

man, its worse than that too, if you have bones that are both infront of and behind another piece, theres no way to solve it without remaking those bones as separate parts

[mint frost]

can "textures" in block.json only be used to define directional textures? I was hoping I could create an array of textures for one block

[white bobcat]

That’s not a good question

I don’t get it

[mint frost]

I'm cooked

I don't need to use blocks.json, I should be able to have all my textures in terrain_texture.json and reference them in the material instance when needed, but it's not working

[mint frost]

This is in terrain_texture.json

"cure_soaked_sponge": {
            "textures": "textures/blocks/potion_soaked_sponges/cure_soaked_sponge"
        },```

This is in the blocks material instance ```json
"minecraft:material_instances": {
                "*": {
                    "texture": "cure_soaked_sponge"
                }
            },```

I thought that was all that was needed

At least that's how it's working on some of my other blocks

[white bobcat]

That’s all you need

[mint frost]

weird, not sure why it's just an update texture then

[white bobcat]

Update texture? Not related to the texture then

Check the bp block file

Are you also defining a texture in blocks.json for that block?

If so, don’t

Simply do wildcard

[mint frost]

That was the only way I had it appear when I was testing it

nothing in my bp file looks problematic

{
    "format_version": "1.20.70",
    "minecraft:block": {
        "description": {
            "identifier": "runecraft:potion_soaked_sponge",
            "menu_category": {
                "category": "construction",
                "is_hidden_in_commands": false
            }
        },
        "components": {
            "minecraft:destructible_by_mining": {
                "seconds_to_destroy": 3
            },
            "minecraft:destructible_by_explosion": {
                "explosion_resistance": 1
            },
            "minecraft:material_instances": {
                "*": {
                    "texture": "cure_soaked_sponge"
                }
            },
            "minecraft:loot": "loot_tables/empty.json",
            "minecraft:map_color": "#FFFFFF"
        }
    }
}```

wondering if it could be related to using one of the newer format versions

[white bobcat]

You either define the texture with material instances or with blocks.json

[white bobcat]

Looks good (on mobile) but I’m not sure if they have renamed any of that in latest previews

[mint frost]

think I'm on 1.20.70.25 still, let me update to latest and fix some things

setting up everything I need to test the on_step_on script stuff this week

[white bobcat]

What else you need other than a simple block and the script

?

[mint frost]

that's it, there's just a lot of stuff the block will do

[white bobcat]

Oh okay

[mint frost]

I'll try it in a few minutes and check docs when my preview is updated, still not sure

the texture paths are correct

threw it on one of my plants

[white bobcat]

I hope Mojang give us that scripting replicas of experimental components

[mint frost]

is that not what they literally are giving us

[white bobcat]

This is all you need for the texture to show, on blocks.json use wildcard

[white bobcat]

nah, they are giving us the ability to replicate experimental components

not giving the replicas

[mint frost]

wdym use wildcard?

[white bobcat]

*

[mint frost]

I shouldn't need anything in blocks.json

[red sky]

If that's a transparent texture blocks.json won't work for that block anyway.

[white bobcat]

I mean, if you don’t want to add sounds to your block I guess you’re fine then

[mint frost]

I will be adding sound, but that's it

It's just a sponge block

[white bobcat]

Okay

[mint frost]

not sure I understand what this would do json "runecraft:potion_soaked_sponge": { "textures": "*" }

{
    "format_version": "1.20.80",
    "minecraft:block": {
        "description": {
            "identifier": "runecraft:potion_soaked_sponge"
        },
        "components": {
            "minecraft:material_instances": {
                "*": {
                    "texture": "cure_soaked_sponge"
                }
            }
        }
    }
}```

rip

still doesn't work with just this

[white bobcat]

uhhh

Is your texture opaque?

[mint frost]

nope

already put it in the material instance of another block and it worked just fine

have absolutely no idea

Json is stupid

[white bobcat]

that’s… strange
