CUBES

# CUBES Adds various cubes that you can have as items. They don't really do anything. **But they look cool** ## Give yourself a cube: ``` /give @p minecraft:acacia_boat ``` ## Cube colors: - `aqua` - `black` - `blue` - `dark_aqua` - `dark_blue` - `dark_gray` - `dark_green` - `dark_purple` - `dark_red` - `gold` - `gray` - `green` - `light_purple` - `red` - `white` - `yellow` You can also add `_bordered` to the end of any color to get a cube with a border. All borders are white except for the `white_bordered` cube, which has a black border. I provide the main 16 chat colors as usable textures. Feel free to add your own. ## Adding a custom cube: 1. Unzip the pack 2. Go to the `assets/cubes/models/block` folder 3. Create a new file. Name it whatever you like, just make sure it ends in ".json" 4. Copy the following code: ```json { "format_version": "1.21.11", "credit": "Made with Blockbench", "parent": "cubes:block/cube_bordered", "textures": { "border": "cubes:block/<color>", "color": "cubes:block/<color>" } } ``` 5. Edit the file (use notepad, vscode, whatever) Paste the copied code and make the following changes: Set `"parent"` to either `"cubes:block/cube"` or `"cubes:block/cube_bordered"` If you aren't making a bordered cube, remove the line with `"border"` in it. Then, replace both instances of `<color>` with any of the named chat colors. Use the (https://minecraft.wiki/w/Formatting_codes) if you don't know them. Now, save and close the file 6. Next, go to the `assets/cubes/items` folder 7. Create a file with the **SAME NAME** as the file you made in step 3. 8. Copy the following code: ```json { "model": { "type": "minecraft:model", "model": "cubes:block/<file>" } } ``` 9. Replace `<file>` with the **EXACT** name of the file you created in step 3, but without ".json" at the end. 10. Save and close the file 11. Enjoy your custom cube! ## Adding a custom color 1. Go to your favorite image editer (I like https://piskelapp.com). 2. Create a new 16x16 image, and color the entire thing with one solid color. 3. Save the photo as a png and put it into the `assets/cubes/textures/block` folder. 4. Use the name of the photo without ".png" to replace `<color>` in any new cube you make. (You can also add a design to the texture, but it will apply the texture to all sides of the block.)
