Question Custom Blocks

[Johannes]

Hey guys,
I wanted to ask how you can program your own blocks on your server without using a mod. I think I have to create a Tp which is no problem but I heard you have to overwrite existing textures but I want that you can still use the blocks from which I have overwritten the texture with normal texture.
thanks in advance
best regards
John

You can use chorus block states wich aren't obtainable in survival or creative. You could also use mushroom block states which don't generate naturally but these can be obtained in survival. Then use a resourcepack to change the textures. With this method you can add as many custom blocks as you want. Another way is using display blocks but I only can recommend it if the custom blocks are something like workstations which don't spawn naturally. There are also some more ways but that are the ones Im recommending.

If you are using legacy versions you can't get around changing vanilla blocks.
