Dimension Portal block have no transparency

So Ive made a custom dimension and animated a portal texture that is transparent. I want my portal to basically look like a nether portal, however in the creator, I dont have any option to make my portal block transparent. If anyone has any idea how to do this that would be cool :)

Change your texture to be transparent, not the portal settings.

Necromancer14, Can you elaborate? the texture already has transparency as I said, The dimension auto generates a block for the portal based on the texture I gave it, but I do not believe that the autogenerated block supports texture

So far ive tried adding transparency to the generated code in "DimensionPortalBlock.Java"

Which looked like this

@OnlyIn(Dist.CLIENT)
    public static void registerRenderLayer() {
        ItemBlockRenderTypes.setRenderLayer(ModName.BLOCKNAME, renderType -> renderType == RenderType.translucent());
    }

But this only returned an error in the dimension element.

Any help appreciated
