Hey, I need help making the item icon for my custom modeled block, but it's not coming out as I wanted. It comes out as this

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

[TheRedMezek]

It would help if we knew what you wanted it to come out as. I'm assuming you want it to be smaller in first person, in which case you need to turn down the firstperson scale in your item .json.  If that still isn't to your liking, fiddle around with the item .json until you like it. You'll learn how it works as you go.

[NovaViper]

Basically, I want it look like it was in 1.7.10

[TheRedMezek]

I see; rotation and texture problems. For the rotation, you'll have to edit the firstperson rotation of your item .json util you like it. In your model json you specified a one-pixel section of your texture to render on each side of the voxel. So instead of

 

{

            "from": [ 0, 9, 0 ],

            "to": [ 16, 15, 16 ],

            "__comment": "Top",

            "faces": {

                "north": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 0, 0 ], "texture": "#TablePart"},

                "south": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 0, 0 ], "texture": "#TablePart"},

                "east": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 0, 0 ], "texture": "#TablePart"},

                "west": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 0, 0 ], "texture": "#TablePart"},

                "up": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 0, 0 ], "texture": "#TableTop"},

                "down": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 0, 0 ], "texture": "#TablePart"}

            }

        }

 

try

 

{

            "from": [ 0, 9, 0 ],

            "to": [ 16, 15, 16 ],

            "__comment": "Top",

            "faces": {

                "north": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 6 ], "texture": "#TablePart"},

                "south": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 6 ], "texture": "#TablePart"},

                "east": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 6 ], "texture": "#TablePart"},

                "west": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 6 ], "texture": "#TablePart"},

                "up": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#TableTop"},

                "down": { "uv": [ 0, 0, 16, 16 ], "texture": "#TablePart"}

            }

        }

 

(I may have gotten the north/south/east/west Y parts wrong, you'll have to play with it and see what works)

[TheRedMezek]

Also, I suggest you learn how to use this program. It's helped me a ton with making models for my own mod.

I've used that tool to get the model, but for some reason I cannot get the 3D viewer to come up, Im using Java 8 and my computer is Windows 7 64 bit

[TheRedMezek]

The 3D viewer doesn't work for me either; I'm glad you use it though. Just making sure.

 

Does your model work now?

[NovaViper]

I had to get off of my computer, so I won't be able to test it for a few hours I think. I'll let you know when it works

[NovaViper]

That works, but the bottom parts don't render the parts like the top

Nvm! I fixed it and also, I want it to sit upward instead of on the side, like on the pictures posted already

[NovaViper]

Woop, nevermind, I got it right! Thanks for the help
