[SOLVED] [1.8] Block Rendering Troubles

[DaveTheModder]

Hey all, I'm working on a 1.8 mod, and I'm having trouble with the JSON files. No matter what I do, it always gives an error in the console and shows the default black/purple texture on the block.

 

Here's the error:

Here is my assets/dark/models/item/darkGrass.json (FWI, dark is my modid and darkGrass is the variable name of my block.)

 

{

"parent": "dark:block/darkGrass",

"display": {

"thirdperson": {

"rotation": [ 10, -45, 170 ],

"translation": [ 0, 1.5, -2.75 ],

"scale": [ 0.375, 0.375, 0.375 ]

}

}

}

 

 

Here is my assets/dark/models/block/darkGrass.json:

 

{

"parent": "block/cube_all",

"textures": {

"all": "dark:blocks/dark_grass_top",

}

}

 

 

Here is my assets/dark/blockstates/darkGrass.json:

 

{

"variants": {

"normal": { "model": "dark:darkGrass" }

}

}

 

 

I render the block in init using:

 

RenderItem darkGrass = Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem();

 

darkGrass.getItemModelMesher().register(Item.getItemFromBlock(RegisterBlocks.darkGrass), 0, new ModelResourceLocation(Main.MODID + ":darkGrass", "inventory"));

 

 

 

Any idea what's wrong?

 

Thanks for all help!

Oh. Derp.
