I'd totally throw all my diamonds into a fire to make it blue in my survival world!

To be honest, that would be a cool game mechanic. Spend one diamond to permanently recolor a fire block just for cosmetics?

It's basically saying "I'm so rich, I literally burn diamonds to look better."

You could totally do this with a Spigot plugin (and a resource pack of course). The plugin part would take care of setting (and maintaining) blockโ€™s light level to 15 while internal serverโ€™s settings would disable random light updates to prevent it from going off.

or you could put it on netherrack

ridddle ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 09:55:38 on October 29, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

I donโ€™t mean the fire going off but the light level of a custom retextured flower to look like blue fire. The replacement isnโ€™t actually fire anymore AFAIK.

tayjasmith ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 09:58:11 on October 29, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

I figured it was one of the new fangled damage value things. Like drop the diamond on it and it turns to a fire block with a damage value that isn't normal and give that specific damage value fire a retexturing

Oh is it? /u/tryashtar can you confirm / deny?

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ tryashtar ยท 6 points ยท Posted at 13:06:38 on October 29, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

Nah, I just retextured cobwebs.

If anyone can find a way to keep the block as fire with a resource pack, please share!

tayjasmith ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 10:55:26 on October 29, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

I know I could do it with my method

ridddle ยท 6 points ยท Posted at 11:05:07 on October 29, 2015 ยท (Permalink)*

I think I recall something about custom damage values on blocks / item which arenโ€™t supported in vanilla being untexturable. Basically pink/black cross pattern. So you can retexture a hoe with damage being set to a specific value but you canโ€™t retexture iron ingot with damage 10 to look like copper. At least that was the case in 1.8, did 1.9 snapshots change it back?

I believe the latest snapshot gave you the ability to assign textures to blocks with custom damage values

This is extremely good news! Thank you. I hope this means Conquest will be able to re-add those fancy blocks: http://i.imgur.com/RHSOPmY.png

A perfect chance to give Lapis more uses

Dude, lapis lazuli is super-important. You need it for enchanting!

Way more useful than those dumb blue shiny rocks.

Only at enchantment tables. After a while, you resort to exp farms and librarian book trades.

That looks really neat!

This would be great for decorating!

How would you keep the flame from burning out? Put it on netherrack or something else?

And when colored lightning gets into the game sometime in the future, maybe mid-next year, these blue fires could only get better!
