I'm having trouble getting the texture to appear on a crop block called

blightplant

. Any stage, when placed in the world, has no texture whatsoever (completely transparent). In Item form, the texture is missing (purple and black cube), unless I comment out the ModelBakery line, in which case the first stage renders in the inventory but is still invisible when placed down.

Relevant init lines:

Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher().register(Item.getItemFromBlock(this.blightplant), 0, new ModelResourceLocation("ferret_myfirstmod:blightplant", "inventory"));
ModelBakery.addVariantName(Item.getItemFromBlock(this.blightplant), new String[]{"ferret_myfirstmod:blightplant1", "ferret_myfirstmod:blightplant2", "ferret_myfirstmod:blightplant3"});

What can I change to get the textures to appear?

are there any errors in your console output?

Wait, never mind. I changed the renderType from 6 to 3 and that worked for some reason. Wuppy's book said 6, maybe it's changed since 1.7.10.

In 1.7.10, the

int

returned from

getRenderType()

determines how to block is rendered. In 1.8, it determines if the block will be rendered as a fluid, a standard JSON model or does not get rendered.
