1.21.1 Resource Location constructor is private?

[Epithagamus]

I am trying to implement a model for a mob into Minecraft and am running into trouble with the ModModelLayer file and the downloaded model Java file from blockbench. Both attempt to create a new ResourceLocation instance however after browsing the code I can't find a public constructor for Resource Location within the game files and can't instantiate it. Am I missing something here?

Use one of the static methods on the class to create a new instance.

In the Forge docs stands the following:

  Quote

The ResourceLocation is final and its constructor is private. There are alternatives depending on your usecase:

• new ResourceLocation(String, String) -> fromNamespaceAndPath(String, String)
• new ResourceLocation(String) -> parse(String)
• new ResourceLocation("minecraft", String) -> withDefaultNamespace(String)
• of -> bySeparator
• isValidResourceLocation is removed

I experimented around in my mods and they work
