FIXED IT. IntelliJ's refactor system replaced testmod with assets.

Right, I rebuilt my resources folder and now it thinks that assets is the modid. I think that's my problem.

Ok, I'll try and make a GitHub repo after I do the resources thing and also replace the ItemModelMesher with ModelLoader.

The reason why I did all this is because I was following this tutorial for 1.11 that I tried to update myself. The reason why it's in init and not preInit is because the ItemModelMesher is loaded in the init instead (i believe). I'll probably use the registry events like you said. I'm not sure what the assets thing could mean.

Here you go: public class ClientProxy extends CommonProxy { @Override public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event) { super.preInit(event); } @Override public void init(FMLInitializationEvent event) { ItemModelMesher mesher = Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher(); RegUtil.initClient(mesher); super.init(event); } @Override public void postInit(FMLPostInitializationEvent event) { super.postInit(event); } @Override public void serverStarting(FMLServerStartingEvent event) { super.serverStarting(event); } @Override public void serverStopping(FMLServerStoppingEvent event) { super.serverStopping(event); } }

Ok, this is my util with the registering events: @Mod.EventBusSubscriber(modid=MyMod.MODID) public class RegUtil { @SubscribeEvent public static void registerBlocks(final RegistryEvent.Register<Block> event) { event.getRegistry().register(Blocks.testBlock); } @SubscribeEvent public static void registerItems(final RegistryEvent.Register<Item> event) { } @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT) public static void initClient(ItemModelMesher mesher) { Item item = Item.getItemFromBlock(Blocks.testBlock); ModelResourceLocation model = new ModelResourceLocation("testmod:" + "TestBlock", "inventory"); ModelLoader.registerItemVariants(item, model); mesher.register(item, 0, model); } } (the initClient method is called in my ClientProxy) This is my blocks class: public class Blocks { public static final Block testBlock = new TestBlock("TestBlock", Material.ROCK, CreativeTabs.BUILDING_BLOCKS, 5F, 15F); } And I'm sure that's all you need. The assets thing started showing up when I actually created the assets folder, then it started showing up in my FileNotFoundExceptions.

I've returned to modding after creating a few mods (for myself) for 1.7.10. Now, when the ModelLoader loads my block, it simply throws a FileNotFoundException and continues with the game! I don't have any experience with MC 1.8 onwards, though.
