Vanilla Fence Template

[timid trench]

This is a custom fence template; I included the geometry file along with the block.json file.

It has all the correct connections, custom collisions/selections, waterlogging, icon in hand/inventory, leashable, etc.

I found 3 issues which I showed in the images:

1. Waterlogging a fence in certain state/s culls water and makes it look strange.
2. Darkness occurs towards the bottom of the fences. I tried to fix this but could not find anything that worked (Yes, the model is all within 16x16x16).
3. You'll notice in the picture that the fence post itself is fine, but the two bones connecting to the other post don't have their UV set correctly. I would have changed it myself, but unfortunately, I have never messed with UVs before.

Everything else is perfect and has been tested thoroughly.

@viscid torrent First of all, Merry Christmas! Second, Sorry to ping you

I remember you asking about a template to put up on bedrock dev for the fences, I came up with this. The entire thing works perfectly, only 3 issues. The UV issue I'm sure is easy enough, however the other 2, though pretty small issues, I don't have any clues on how to fix.

Hey 👋

[fast stratus]

Geometry is due to the strange water.

[fossil egret]

would this component work well to make lag efficient connected glass?

My model works with water

@timid trench

[timid trench]

i’ll test it out in a bit

[timid trench]

It did not fix the water, however it did fix the UV

Though the geo for the fence icon is still the same

[fast stratus]

I use a separate geometry for the icon.

[fast stratus]

I really think I was mistaken, but I think the problem with this is the collision; keeping the collision the same as in vanilla water breaks it.

[fast stratus]

Testing with an older version fixes the issue, but the collision isn't the same as in the vanilla version; it's probably a bug.

[timid trench]

if you have the fixed UV for the item icon can you please send it, that way I can send an updated geo file for the resource

[timid trench]

I’ll mess with it

[fast stratus]

The icon I have follows the style of the bamboo fence, not the others, since the icons of the others seem bugged.

Thank you very much for your Geo and JSON models, my skills were not able to have the right shape in the inventory and did not work at Vanilla despite the fact that I had made a script file for the connectors. This helped me enormously

[timid trench]

Just fixed the water issue

And the uv I have someone helping me fix it to match vanilla exactly

I’ll share it all in a bit

Apparently for anyone wondering, the water glitches out when in this specific collision with 16 across, however setting it to 15.999 fixes it lol

[fast stratus]

Walking along the side of the vanilla fence and the custom is consistent?

In other words, you won't notice the change in the collision.

[timid trench]

yes

[fast stratus]

Interesting, and quite strange problem lol

[vernal wedge]

for some reason the game fails to register block states of the fences and breaks multiplayer

[timid trench]

are upcoming creator features enabled

Also did you add it in 100% the correct way

[vernal wedge]

yes

the block itself works for the host

but when clients try to connect it produces those errors in the screenshot above

its probably a problem with the component it self

considering the dev team's track record for this game

[viscid torrent]

Its due to use beta features

[vernal wedge]

oh

[vernal wedge]

wait, do you mean where it says "use_beta_features": true?

[viscid torrent]

Yes. That part creates issues for servers.

[vernal wedge]

so if the component was omitted do you think it would work properly for syncing block data between server and client?

[viscid torrent]

If your block doesnt require it then yes.

[vernal wedge]

oddly enough deleting "use_beta_features" still allows the block to work like it should. i was messing with the json file of this template and removed it from my code and the blocks still work in game just as they are shown in the template.

[viscid torrent]

So then the fence doesn't need it anymore.

[fast stratus]

Is this in the geometry or the collision?

[timid trench]

collision

Also apparently adding the connections trait breaks multiplayer

[fast stratus]

I'm somewhat confused because the water seems to be working well for me now, even though I haven't made any changes.

[fast stratus]

Does the game crash?

[timid trench]

no the player never gets into the world

[timid trench]

maybe they silently fixed it or your in preview

[fast stratus]

Yea, I'm in preview.

[timid trench]

Yeah it’s fixed in preview, though multiplayer I don’t know if that’s fixed

[fast stratus]

It's still bugged; you need to report it if you haven't already.
