{{Non-remodellable blocks}}
== Particles ==
Many blocks also emit particles, often passively, and sometimes following certain interactions. It is possible to customize the texture used by the standard "block" particles which are used when breaking, sprinting on or falling on the block. Some blocks will also emit different, unrelated particles; these are fixed to the block ID and often state, and cannot be changed or disabled, nor can other blocks be made to use them.

Template:Exclusive Minecraft:Models are used for defining the fundamental geometry for the vast majority of Minecraft:blocks in the game. Some blocks have additional visual data associated with them which are effectively fixed in nature; while their textures can often be modified, their geometry, positioning and fundamental presence usually cannot be.

Render models, but have additional graphics
