Yes, the model works just fine, and still blocks projectiles. I have a version where the JSON does not call overrides, and it works fine (but kludgey), a version that does call overrides, where the shield turns into a purple cube, and a version that simply calls the blocking JSON itself, which works fine (like the first). The problem seems to stem from when shield<name>_blocking.json is called. How would I trace this? Looking at the log...

I have learned how to create items, mess with JSON files, as well as custom recipes (don't use JSON for those), armor, and even custom ore in the ground. I have searched high and low for a tutorial on shields, and thereby learn the structures to create such, and I have found little in terms of legit tutorials that are still alive (and kicking). Help would be appreciated! This works as a kludge. { "parent": "item/generated", "textures": { "layer0": "tm:entity/shield_<Type goes here>" }, "display": { "thirdperson_righthand": { "rotation": [ 45, 135, 0 ], "translation": [ 1, 1, 0 ], "scale": [ 1, 1, 1 ] }, perspective, transforms, etc... } } So far I have created a subclass of item (cloned everything). I can't seem to get this to work in the shield_<some type goes here>. json. I ususally use ...stuff then, "overrides": [ { "predicate": { "blocking": 1 }, "model": "item/shield_blocking" } ] The override-json does not work at all. I'd like to get the block-animation working on right-click, instead of showing the purple-checker-block O' teeth-gnashing. -Charlie
