looking for a simple translucent shader (for blocks)

can you help?

You can set TRANSPARENT and ALPHA to entity.

yes that worls but throws no static shadows a block does.
And you can assign a material to a block - e.g. a translucent shader.

Just write an translucent action. But I guess, it will not cast a shadow, I guess.

In the pixel shader adjust the Color.a value to your needs befor returning it.

???? - you confuse me
-can't assign an action as materil to a block.

say what??? (could you give an example please.)
