So, I've been trying out coding a mof, these are some tests for what I can do with it, and now I am creating a RecipeProvider. I know java, but minecraft modding not exactly, I've seen people ask for recipe assist here, but none matched my problem, so before I show the code, I want to remind you that the same code works if I put in modded items, but with vanilla, it doesn't.

Okay, here is the code:

ShapedRecipeBuilder.shaped(RecipeCategory.MISC, ModItems.STEEL_ALLOY_POWDER.get(), 6)

.pattern("###")

.pattern("///")

.pattern("///")

.define("/", IRON_INGOT.get()) //here is the problem, it shows that Cannot resolve method ".get()" in  Item 

.define("#", COAL.get()) //same here

.requires(IRON_INGOT, COAL)

.unlockedBy(getHasName(ModItems.STEEL_ALLOY_POWDER.get(), has(Items.IRON_INGOT.get(), Items.COAL.get()))) same problem here, and it only appears with Vanilla Items

.save(pWriter);

Maybe I am just blind, but does someone mind helping, cause I've been stuck finding a solution for 2 days.

 

[Edit] I tried taking the ".get()" function off, cause it worked for ".requires" tag, it doesn't

[Edit #2] The solution for given problem turns out to be, to encase the symbol in '/' not "/" afterwards everything should work perfectly!

Vanilla Items are directly Item instances you do not need to call #get like for your Mod Items (which are RegistryObjects)

I tried, but it didn't work, and now when I return to Mods own added items, it doesn't work either, I am just stunned, cause shapeless works either way, but shaped doesn't, I've looked through multiple tutorials showing the process of adding datagen to a mod, all of them use this method, but I don't know why it doesn't work from me, maybe I'm just dumb..

Remove the #get call for all vanilla Items then post the log and the full class.

So umm... I approached tyhe code with a fresh mind today, and it turns out, I was just being dumb, you see, to get the ".define" tag to work pSymbol needs to be encased in 'exampleSymbol' not "exampleSymbol", I put this out here for anyone who might have run into the same problem.

This was your problem if you don't know the difference between string and character. i would recommend learning the basics of java before modding Minecraft,
