1.8 rendering primer

1.8 Rendering Primer by williewillus (formatted to markdown by gigaherz)

Note: This primer assumes you are using MinecraftForge 1.8.9 build 1670 or above. Correctness not guaranteed otherwise. Note 2: This primer is for 1.8.x. Changes in 1.9 are on another gist: https://gist.github.com/williewillus/e37edde85dc78d2e138c

This guide is intended for those with a clear knowledge of general modding and want a quick up to speed on how new things work. If you are confused, please hop on IRC and ask for help!

Blocks and Items

  • 1.7: EVERY BLOCK SHAPE EVER was hardcoded into RenderBlocks or your ISBRH. Oh God, just look at that class. Actually don’t, if you value your sanity.
