[1.7.10] Rotating a texture on a face [Solved]

[KillerMapper]

Hi,

 

First, sorry if this topic has been already mentioned here, but I couldn't find any solution...

 

I'm making some road blocks with orientations. But only the top face has a different texture with a specific orientation:

 

I can't find how to rotate the texture on the top without having to make a second texture with the line turned 90°. And I really want to avoid making additional textures just because I can't rotate them in the game... Especially since I have a lot of blocks in this case. I tried some IconFlipped but it can't rotate, it can only mirrors the texture (will be useful for my arrows and corners, but not for my lines).

 

I tried to look at the code for logs or pistons, but I stuck when it goes into the render part.

I found this but I don't understand how to use it (I don't even know if it's still up to date, considering one of the pages shows the old terrain.png):

Any ideas how I could achieve this?

 

Thanks.

Why not just rotate the entire block like the furnace, just look at BlockFurnace#onBlockAdded

 

That's not how the furnace works. The furnace doesn't ACTUALLY rotate, it just displays a different texture (the "front") on a different side (NSEW).

Thanks, ISBRH seems to be the good way. I successfully made a block using ISBRH and rotated the texture on the top. Now I just need to adapt the uvRotateTop to the metadata, I hope I'll succeed

 

About the furnace: like Draco18s said, the only thing this block does is putting the front texture at the right place. The top texture never rotates (you can verify on the pumpkin block which works exactly the same way, the stem drawn on the texture doesn't rotate).

 

EDIT: Done! Thanks for you help! If you want to check the sources, go ahead: https://github.com/KillerMapper/roadstuff

Note: I just set the git earlier, and I still have lot of test files in. I need to clean the mod. Check TestRotateBlock.class, which uses RenderAsphaltLines.class to see how I did the rotating texture.

 

Thanks for your help!
