Ah cheers. The new wiki confused me as it mentions "blocks=" and "textures=".

---

I suspect it's not currently possible to have both hardened clay and stained clay connected and not with anything else as they have separate block IDs.

---

I hit another problem which I suspect is me missing something obvious again. What is wrong with the following:

#b.properties
matchTiles=minecraft:textures/blocks/bookshelf.png
tiles=0-1
method=random

It does nothing.

If I add a new .properties file bellow it starts working:

#a.properties
matchBlocks=minecraft:bookshelf
method=fixed
faces=sides
tiles=minecraft:textures/blocks/bookshelf.png

Any ideas what's going on here?

matchTiles=bookshelf
tiles=0-1
method=random

Thank you for the help so far kwerti. I have yet another problem.

I have two folders "bookshelf_connect" and "bookshelf_random". The first contains the files to make bookshelves connect horizontally and the second contains the files to make bookshelves have random textures. The idea is that anyone using my pack which likes one of these features, but not the other, can easily delete the folder they don't like. I can't get this working.

The current .properties files.

(There are also .properties files for the left, right, and middle sections)

The above works fine when both folders are included. If you delete the "bookshelf_connect" folder it obviously stops randomising as the second .properties file doesn't target the default texture (it targets "3.png" from "bookshelf_connect").

I tried adding the following that would run after all the others and randomise any remaining default bookshelf textures.

It randomises, but stops the textures from being connected. It's as if "matchTiles=bookshelf" is in fact matching the block if that texture was present originally even if previous rules have changed it. I don't understand why this is happening. I even tried having one .properties file that targets both "3.png" and the default bookshelf texture.

I hope I'm explaining myself well enough.

#bookshelf_random/single/f.properties
matchBlocks=bookshelf
faces=sides
tiles=0-1
method=random

When is 1.8 coming out for this

Quote from BenLaramie

So, having thoroughly searched this site and googled everywhere I can think of and trying to read through some 400+ pages of information and code language I don't understand I just have a question:

Can I use mcpatcher to have the seamless glass I see in so many resource packs with the default 1.7.9 MC? Or do I have to download/make a custom pack just to get that? If so could someone point me to a good tutorial that's actually up to date? Also if this is in the wrong thread please let me know.

I just want my glass to blend together

MCPatcher isn-snip-like that.

Okay. Thank you, seriously. That's literally all I've been trying to find out. I hadn't even heard of optifine or "CTM" till I started researching how the glass thing was supposed to work and from what I can tell MCP is the way to go, if only for continued updating. As to the update, it should still work with 1.7.9 right? Or was that too big of an update content wise to hope for compatibility? Thus far I haven't seen any issues but like I said I'm running vanilla right now

Quote from Vattic

It's working fine now, cheers!

I've noticed that glass panes seem to be rendering incorrectly.

Notice how the "glass_pane_top.png" is only rendering on the top/bottom, but not the sides? That screenshot is from a patched v1.7.9 using the default textures (no .properties files). Is there anything I can do to fix this?

I apologise for double posting, but I have another issue. Can anyone guide me through animating a 2x2 repeat texture? I'm pretty sure I've done it right but I can't get it to work.
