[1.10.2] Weird Rendering Glitch (Baked Model)

[Technomancer]

I have created some working smart baked models, but they all have the same strange bug. In most chunks (16x16x16 chunks, not 16x16 from world height to bedrock) the model renders very dark. The texture is still rendered if you look closely, but incredibly darkly. Every time any block in one of those chunks that is working is changed (even a block not touching the baked model blocks) the chunk changes to be broken. Every time I close and re-open the world, which chunks are broken resets and changes, each time to a seemingly random pattern. Here are a couple of screenshots to demonstrate:

 

 

What they should look like:

 

What the broken ones look like:

 

And an overview of a bunch of working and broken chunks

 

 

And this is the code for the baked model itself:

 

public class ConduitBakedModel implements IBakedModel{
    
private TextureAtlasSprite temp;//TODO

private VertexFormat format;
private Function<ResourceLocation, TextureAtlasSprite> bakedTextureGetter;

public static final ModelResourceLocation BAKED_MODEL = new ModelResourceLocation(Main.MODID + ":heatcable");

public ConduitBakedModel(IModelState state, VertexFormat format, Function<ResourceLocation, TextureAtlasSprite> bakedTextureGetter) {
        this.bakedTextureGetter = bakedTextureGetter;
	this.format = format;
    }

private void putVertex(UnpackedBakedQuad.Builder builder, Vec3d normal, double x, double y, double z, float u, float v, TextureAtlasSprite sprite) {
        for (int e = 0; e < format.getElementCount(); e++) {
            switch (format.getElement(e).getUsage()) {
                case POSITION:
                    builder.put(e, (float)x, (float)y, (float)z, 1.0f);
                    break;
                case COLOR:
                    builder.put(e, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
                    break;
                case UV:
                    if (format.getElement(e).getIndex() == 0) {
                        u = sprite.getInterpolatedU(u);
                        v = sprite.getInterpolatedV(v);
                        builder.put(e, u, v, 0f, 1f);
                        break;
                    }
                case NORMAL:
                    builder.put(e, (float) normal.xCoord, (float) normal.yCoord, (float) normal.zCoord, 0f);
                    break;
                default:
                    builder.put(e);
                    break;
            }
        }
    }

You could solve the problem?

 

I have a similar problem and want to solve it but do not think tips on how to do this.

Probably a total shot in the dark (get it? Lol!) but have you tried getting light from neighbours to keep it at the same light level?

Hi, just poking around with the same model in 11.2 to make it work, I had to add the line:

builder.setApplyDiffuseLighting(false);

after the line

builder.setTexture(sprite);

Hope that helps
