Crop Block Appearance

Three types of resource file are involved to define a crop block appearance:

• Block State Definition: Map the block state properties to block model
• Block Model: The model of a block with textures, Croparia IF provides block models presets.
• Textures: The textures for layers, Croparia IF provide texture presets.

Example: Modify croparia:block_crop_netherite

1. Locate block state definition path

The crop name for croparia:block_crop_netherite is netherite, which is the trailing string after ...block_crop_. Thus, the block state definition path is .../assets/croparia/blockstates/block_crop_netherite.json.

2. Write block state definition (make use of block model)

The default definition for crop block should be like this:

{
  "variants": {
    "age=0": {
      "model": "croparia:block/crop_stage0"
    },
    "age=1": {
      "model": "croparia:block/crop_stage1"
    },
    "age=2": {
      "model": "croparia:block/crop_stage2"
    },
    "age=3": {
      "model": "croparia:block/crop_stage3"
    },
    "age=4": {
      "model": "croparia:block/crop_stage4"
    },
    "age=5": {
      "model": "croparia:block/crop_stage5"
    },
    "age=6": {
      "model": "croparia:block/crop_stage6"
    },
    "age=7": {
      "model": "croparia:block/crop_stage7"
    }
  }
}

The keys like age=0 represent the age of the crop block. If you want to use different model for a specific age, modify the value of model, which is croparia:block/... to your desired one.

The available alternative models are as follows:

• croparia:block/crop_stage0
• croparia:block/crop_stage1
• croparia:block/crop_stage2
• croparia:block/crop_stage3
• croparia:block/crop_stage4
• croparia:block/crop_stage5
• croparia:block/crop_stage6
• croparia:block/crop_stage7
• croparia:block/animal_stage5
• croparia:block/animal_stage6
• croparia:block/animal_stage7
• croparia:block/elemental_stage5
• croparia:block/elemental_stage6
• croparia:block/elemental_stage7
• croparia:block/food_stage5
• croparia:block/food_stage6
• croparia:block/food_stage7
• croparia:block/monster_stage5
• croparia:block/monster_stage6
• croparia:block/monster_stage7
• croparia:block/nature_stage5
• croparia:block/nature_stage6
• croparia:block/nature_stage7

3. [Optional] Customize block model
