Hey, looking to make a resource pack with the only change of making stone and dirt transparent like glass or ice. I'm essence so you could swap between the two while mining. I know this is a game breaker change bit would like it as a help. Already have on where the texture is blank but it's not the same effect.

Couldn't find any other mod with this similar

Turn off connected textures (aka CTM, connected textures mod) in optifine or make a pack that overwrites the connected glass in the jar
When optifine or mcpatcher is added into your minecraft 1.6.2 (or other version) jar, It adds connected textures for several blocks, glass is one of them.

Here is path step by step. Just delete (or rename) the glass and glasspane.properties files and the ctm wont activate.

OR, you can just turn off Connected textures in game by doing this:

Annnnd it worked B-) thank you very much kind sir

Are you using Optifine? Optifine will apply CTM to some blocks in the default texture pack, and will still apply the CTM if you don't apply CTM yourself.

Also, you should never directly edit the files in the jar. Always make a separate resource pack to edit.

I am using optifine but on the most basic settings for performance (pc is Vista from 2008) but when I use the resource pack that I found I didn't change any settings on my optifine. Even if I switch back to the original that I had modified it still shows the modded block on my hand and inventory but vanilla block once placed, but the resource pack version of clear glass works fine. I can't figure out what they did differently

How are you trying to change the textures if not with a Resource Pack? Just adding textures to the .jar won't work at all.

Actually... that might be your problem now that I think about it.

That's all I'm doing. Like when I modified the iron bars I only want them to be 1 pixel thick so I deleted a row and it worked fine. Then I got a resource pack that had made specifically clear glass and I copied the two png files into my resource folder of blocks. And it showed the correctbblock in my hand then went vanilla when placed but the iron bars worked fine.

I had modified some of the other blocks so I then copied and moved every png but the glass plane and block files into said downloaded resource pack and that worked but I want to know how to do it myself :-D

I'm not using a resource pack though. I tried searching for it in the mine craft folder and didn't get any results?

I can't modify the glass block. I_have_modified it in photo shop and in game, I'll hold the new modified textured block. Once I place it, it places a vanilla glass block. Same with the plane. I modified the iron bars fine.

Wonderful thanks again for the basic rundown

Hey, not sure if this has been posted elsewhere but I cant seem to find it in the tutorials or otherwise searches.

Basically, when a new version of Minecraft comes out, and a new update is avail, it out-dates current mods. Whats changes need to be made to old mods, to update them to be compatible with the new version?

An explanation or link to a guide on this would be awesome. Thanks!

Curious - is the biome still in this? i didnt enjoy the alll ice biome. or which class file is the biome? all I want to add is the extra blocks

great idea

Edit: somehow i missed the giant needs forge lol... i guess you changed that since i used this last. oh well. Still good mod
