I wanted to share something that helped me when I started creating custom blocks and items. A lot of new modders get stuck because of tiny JSON syntax mistakes in blockstate or model files. A few simple tips: Always validate your JSON using an online validator Make sure your paths match exactly (Forge is case-sensitive) Check that all textures are referenced from the correct namespace If your model is invisible, 90% of the time it’s a missing comma or wrong folder name Hopefully this helps someone avoid an hour of debugging like it did for me.

Hi everyone, I recently started learning Forge modding and I’m trying to understand the proper way to handle simple gameplay events in Forge 1.20.1. Right now, I’m experimenting with detecting when a player right-clicks with a custom item, but I’m a bit confused about which event bus I should be using and where the listener should be registered. If someone could clarify the difference between the mod event bus vs the Forge event bus in the context of input / item-use events, that would really help. And if you have a small code example, even better. Thanks in advance! — Myroslav Mokhammad Abdeljawwad
