 ====== Block Biome Coloring ======
-In this tutorial, we will look at adding biome-dependent colors to new blocks. Remember to keep visual-related logic client-side, (//onInitializeClient//) or it will crash on a server. To register a custom block coloring, use //ColorProviderRegistry.BLOCK.register//, and for items, use //ColorProviderRegistry.ITEM.register//. In this tutorial, the grass biome color will be the one used.
+In this tutorial, we'll look at adding biome-dependent colors to new blocks. To start, you'll need a block with a model that accounts for tintindex. To see an example of this, view the base leaves or grass_block model file.

To register a custom block coloring, use //ColorProviderRegistry.BLOCK.register//, and for items, use //ColorProviderRegistry.ITEM.register//. In this tutorial, the grass biome color will be the one used. Replace the final argument by passing in your block.

-      public void onInitializeClient() {
-         ColorProviderRegistry.BLOCK.register((block, pos, world, layer) -> {
-         BlockColorMapper provider = ColorProviderRegistry.BLOCK.get(Blocks.GRASS);
-         return provider == null ? -1 : provider.getColor(block, pos, world, layer);
-         }, Blocks.SPONGE);
-      }
-   }
-So, what's happening here? The register method wants a color returned, and in this case, that color is taken from the grass block. Coloring an item is very similar. Like blocks, the returned color could be any, but we'll once again use grass blocks for the example.
